					I have trained with the guys at Lift for a long time and consider my sessions to be some of my best long-term investments. My workouts there are sustainable, enjoyable... read more and challenging—and critical to my physical and mental health. Everyone at Lift is extremely smart, knowledgeable about kinesiology and exercise science, and strikes a good balance between pushing you hard and knowing when to dial it back to reinforce form and/or add accessory or rehab work. I trust them all implicitly and look forward to working with them for a long time to come! Edited 6/29/21 to add: the small group lifting classes are also amazing! They offer the same top-quality instruction in a more self-guided environment. Sam and Isaac, the trainers who run them, are wonderful.

					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.

I have been seeing noticeable gains from my time already, and not only has my strength improved, but so has my form.  This is true personal coaching, and unlike big-box gyms that may have trainers without much experience, everyone at Lift provides fantastic guidance.  I highly recommend this to anyone, no matter your fitness goals.

					It’s always been difficult to get into a steady routine and stay motivated, until I started training at LIFT seven months ago with Coach Isaac.  Not only do I... read more have a program designed for my goals, each session is extremely efficient at 45 mins including both strength and cardio work.

I appreciate that he’s been able to design a program that helps me with my tennis elbow pain, all while getting me ready for my wedding this fall!

I cannot recommend LIFT any higher for anyone looking for personal training and achieving your goals. The entire LIFT staff has been welcoming and always exude a positive vibe. They are safe and extremely knowledgeable in doing everything the RIGHT way and making sure you understand why. This is the gym you’ve been looking for!

					Amazing Gym!  All the instructors are incredible!  I'm hooked! Never a dull moment! Every single second is used!

Scheduling Training! One of the easiest and most transparent sign up... read more processes where you simply select your date, time, and trainer! And just as simply - you can change any time. So its super convenient and saves you time when scheduling sessions. Also, access to numerous different trainers with different styles and skills to learn from.  7 days a week, all times during the day! So will work for any schedule you have!  I also like how they have a variety of options for 30 minute, 45 minute and 60 minute workouts.

Equipment & Amenities! Best equipment and wide variety to keep you busy. I've done several on my own but nothing matches having a personal trainer take you through all the skills on using each.  Locker room is nice, clean, and everything you need. TV, music and everything else you need!

Honored to be a Member of the Lift community! Thanks for changing my life! :) - Erik

The owners and coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and the gym itself is immaculate. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to reaching their fitness goals!
