Trainers near South Elgin

“Clean and quiet, especially at 6:30am. Many machines, a large free weight area, and a turffed area for the sled and ropes. Spin room, raquette ball courts, pool, dry sauna, and kids care. I didn't get to explore everything, but it's a nice and inclusive place to workout.“

“I’ve trained their 17 times and I’ve dropped 10 pounds. It’s like having a personal trainer but with a more fun environment because of the energy of all the other people there. Everything is set up for you and ready to go. 45 minutes flies by. I love how there are screens all over the room that show you exactly how to do the movement along with the coaches who are also there to assist you. I’ve had 19 joint surgeries, but the coaches always helped me with modifications, but they don’t baby me because I don’t want to be babied or I wouldn’t be there.“

“Best gym in the area. Staff is super friendly. Best machines and they’ve got machines I’ve never found anywhere else, and they get new stuff in too. Plus they host events and members appreciation days. ??“

“I joined Core FSN late summer and have not regretted this decision once! The atmosphere and community are second to none! All the coaches are amazing and have the best intentions for you to grow physically and emotionally.Not only is there only greatness within the community, they are more than understanding on your time and schedule. If you can’t be there right at the start, no big deal, just jump in! Also they offer a mid day class which comes in super handy for me(work from home full time & Mom of preschool/kindergarten).I would recommend Core FSN every time!“

“I highly recommend H4 if you are looking for a great environment to start your fitness journey. Small group guided sessions for all fitness needs. Energetic staff and fun client challenges.“

“I found EmpowerU Fitness by Googling gyms near me, and I’m so grateful I did. As someone with autism and ADHD, I often struggle with motivation, routine, and making healthy choices. This gym has completely changed that for me. It gives me the accountability I need to actually show up, and I’ve never felt more supported.

David and Jen are truly two of the most wonderful human beings on the planet. They’re patient, knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in everyone who walks through the door. The atmosphere they’ve created is so positive, welcoming, and motivating that it feels less like a gym and more like a community.

Joining EmpowerU Fitness has helped my mental health, physical health, confidence, and overall happiness more than I can say. I’m stronger, clearer, and more consistent than I’ve ever been and I owe so much of that to this place and the people in it.

I’m genuinely so glad I joined this gym. I absolutely love this community and can’t imagine my life without it now.

If you’re looking for a place that truly lives up to its name, this is it. ??️‍♀️“

“Place was very clean and workers were so nice. Morghan was especially helpful she took time away from cleaning to help me“

“I’ve been coming to the Endorphin Effect for almost 2 years. From day one I’ve felt welcome and encouraged to work out. The instructors are amazing and highly motivating!“

“If you’re looking for a highly skilled, detail-oriented instructor who genuinely cares about your growth and well-being, I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly.
As someone who was brand new to pilates, Kelly has been able to provide a deep knowledge of Pilates, attention to form, and ability to tailor each session to my individual needs since the beginning. She has truly helped me build strength, improve posture, and develop a greater awareness of my body.
Her deep knowledge of anatomy, movement mechanics, and injury-safe modifications has been essential in helping me build strength while avoiding aggravation or strain.
Every session is thoughtfully tailored to my body’s needs, with a strong focus on alignment, core support, and controlled movement. She consistently monitors form and provides gentle, precise corrections that make all the difference.“

“I just wrapped up a round of personal training at Holm Studio with Josh and can’t recommend him and his business enough. Having dealt with a low back injury on and off for a year and a half, I was beginning to think I was never going to function, let alone workout like I used to. Josh helped me build a solid foundation, increased my strength and taught me how to safely rebound from minor setbacks. Thanks Holm’s!!“

“I have used numerous personal trainers over the years and Jaynie is the most knowledgeable, best by far. She walks the talk - swimmer, marathoner, cyclist, runner, all around fitness expert. She took me from not being able to swim one lap to doing a 1/2 marathon in 18 months. We have worked together for six years on all facets of training - core, weight training, weight loss..., swimming, running, cycling, cardio, stretching, golf training. There is no better training, coaching partner. I cannot recommend Jaynie enough regardless of where you are on your fitness journey.“

“The training team at MEDFITNESS is great. I am preparing for knee surgery and they worked around my limitations to give me a program were I can be successful.“

“Outstanding facility. Love the programs, equipment and other amenities like the eucalyptus steam room, spa pool, and such. Still hoping to get there more often to get healthier and feel like I'm getting my money's worth from the membership.“

“Highly recommend for players that are committed and would like to take their training to the next level. Coach William works with the players as a individual to meet their needs to perform. I recommend purchasing the package with the most sessions - definitely worth it.“

“Been coming here for years. Whether you are an athlete or someone who wants to work towards a fitness goal, Thrive is the place for you. They have helped me with injury recovery, injury prevention, and strength training. It's hard work, but if you put in the time the results are worth it. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and personable.“
