The whole staff there is great. You cannot go wrong training with any of them. Plus, it is super clean. I feel complete safe going there with COVID-19.

I've been training at LIFT since they opened and the trainers here are second to none. They are highly skilled, consummate professionals, and just all around nice guys. ... read more The trainers are always careful to take any existing injuries or deficits into account when designing my training program. Finally, I can honestly say that I owe my dramatically improved form when lifting weights to the crew at LIFT. I hear Pete's voice in my head whenever I lift on my own--which means I maintain good form and avoid injury even when I'm not working out with them. Pete, Josh, Chad, and the rest of the LIFT team set such a high bar, I honestly don't know what I'll do when I finally leave Chicago and have to find another personal trainer!

I have a very busy schedule, so my training sessions need to be very efficient, staying under an hour at all times. LIFT provides a highly “efficient” workout protocol—... read more time is maximized by increasing intensity to produce great results in half the time. Their 30-minute model uses shorter rest periods to tax the muscular and cardiovascular system simultaneously. By doing so, you are able to do more quality reps in 30 mins than someone would be able to do on their own in a full hour. And, when it comes to strength training, quality is always better than quantity, which they focus on.

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!

I also love the open gym and the equipment. They are constantly adding new things to make the best experience for their customers!

Coach Isaac customized a program that focuses on the results I want to achieve before my wedding in this fall.

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

The facility is clean, the equipment is top notch, and all of the trainers are fantastic. One of the best qualities of this gym is that they personalize workouts to your body and injuries.

I am moving from Chicago and I can say this is one of the things I will miss most!

Great workout for busy professionals. Simply the best !

All of the trainers are great because they listen to you and pay attention to your form to make sure you are getting high quality reps and avoiding injury. It’s efficient and effective 30 min workout that is just the right amount of challenging. I can’t recommend Lift enough! I’ve been training with Pete for a couple years now, and I can’t recommend him enough. He has helped me train for marathons, triathlons, and helped me get stronger again after some injuries, and now he’s helped me train through a pandemic, too! The two best times of my week are the two 30 mins session I have at Lift!
