No frills gym, get your workout and go. Lance is a wonderful man, I did the 10 sessions and it was everything I wanted! I highly suggest the lessons/personal training and figuring it out from there.

Great local gym. Everything you need to get stronger, and Lance is friendly and accommodating to people just passing through. Highly recommended, get down here and pick up some heavy things.

The best gym in Chicago. The owner is awesome and the members are respectful. Wether it's your first time going to a gym or your a seasoned lifter this is the place for you.

Old school gym for pumping iron. Great setup and no need to worry about those that just want to look in the mirror. Got a fantastic workout in. Would definitely go again.

Cool people. Good community. Not for people who are looking for pristine or trendy. Very utilitarian. I always enjoy my time there …

Great place, very welcoming to new people. Owner Lance offers personal training sessions, and he is a terrific person with positive energies
