					I’ve been working with John Fuhr at LIFT Chicago since February and it’s been an amazing experience. I’ve lost 12 pounds while still retaining muscle, which was really important to... read more me. I came into LIFT after not working out consistently for months and honestly feeling intimidated about getting back into fitness, but John helped me rebuild my confidence from the ground up.

What really stands out is how knowledgeable he is. I recently hurt my calf while running and he immediately knew how to adjust workouts and work around the injury safely without making me feel like I was falling behind. His background in kinesiology and strength training really shows in the way he coaches.

LIFT is also a great place for beginners because they focus on teaching the basics the right way instead of making you feel overwhelmed. Everyone is welcoming and supportive, and it’s been one of the first gyms where I’ve actually felt comfortable walking in consistently. Highly recommend John and the team at LIFT Chicago.
