Get Fit Together

Fantastic experience: Joe McDonald changed my whole outlook on fitness and quite honestly changed my life! I have worked out on and off throughout my whole life but never really achieved the "look" that I wanted until I worked with Joe. Joe showed me what I was really capable of, and what I could achieve through hard work, consistency, dedication AND the proper diet. He really cares and took the time to educate me on my diet and the proper way to exercise. My experience working with Joe had such a huge impact on me because I walked into his gym thinking I knew what I was doing, however, he very gently showed me a new way and approach to fitness. I say very "gently" because I was quite stubborn when it came to my diet and Joe very "gently" reminded me that I would have a much easier workout if I was properly fueled! As I started incorporating all of Joe's suggestions and actually listened to him, I was amazed at the way my body was able to perform and there is no better feeling in the world than feeling "fit". I highly recommend Joe to anyone considering a personal trainer, he will change your body and your life and you'll have results you never dreamed were possible! As a 41 year old woman I'm in the best shape of my life, thanks to what I learned from Joe! Ladies, don't be afraid to lift those heavy weights, it's the true fountain of youth!!!

Fantastic experience: I had never been comfortable in a gym and until strongly encouraged by my doctor, never really exercised and didn't watch my diet. After a couple years of no results in the gym on my own I finally considered using a trainer. At the advice and referral from of another GFT I decided to schedule a session with Joe. He immediately got me comfortable in the gym and after a year I'm in best shape ever. Still a work in progress, but if it wasn't for Joe's guidance, concern, and attentiveness to my particular goals I would have never lasted a year. I enjoy going to gym now and plan on being a GFT member for a long time!

Fantastic experience: 22 lbs in 2 months...didn’t see that coming! This gym surprised me. I thought about personal training and decided...what do I have to lose? I never thought I would see these amazing results! Raj is a visionary. No joke! His specifically designed workouts have toned my body to the way I want to look. He listened to what I wanted to achieve and we set out on this journey together. He continually keeps me motivated, encouraging me to “Power up!” I found out that these challenging workouts can be fun and not just going thru hell for an hour. I have found a higher level of confidence and strength I never thought I had in me. I find myself asking, “Why didn’t I do this sooner?”

Fantastic experience: I was not interested in joining another large gym and being just another number in a mediocre group class, so I am so thankful I found GFT. Joe's knowledge and approach exceeded my expectations, he is not your typical trainer, which is what makes your experience challenging, motivating and wanting to come back for more. It is great to find a place that really cares about you and helps you reach your fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: This fitness club classes and instructors are wonderful! I love going here because the classes are so effective, fun and instructors are the best.Personal Training sessions are very effective also. I had terrific results from both, personal training sessions and classes. These guys definitely know what they are doing.I especially want to recognize and thank Joe and Raja. They provide excellent tips and suggestions to ensure we avoid injury and get the most from our class experience. Thanks to your great staff for making Get Fit Together a fitness. I will continue to enjoy and refer to others.

Fantastic experience: Today at 3:00 PM GFT was a game changer for me when I started with Joe almost 2 years ago. The first day during my fitness assessment I was quickly proven that I was out of shape. In conjunction with my lower back issues, I wasn't surprised that that needed to make a change in my fitness routine. A few years prior, I had been active in martial arts but never went to a gym or focused on my diet. Joe has helped me understand the basics of good nutrition so I could make it through a full 1 hour session. He also taught me the techniques which have helped me achieve the goals we set together. Since I started, I added 20# of lean muscle and my back issues are a thing of the past. Joe has a way to motivate and encourage me when I'm at my best and at my worst. Without him I would have quit long ago. If you want results then you must try GFT. You will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I had my first visit to Get Fit Together 2 years ago when I bought a Groupon. My plan was to only use the visits the Groupon allowed, but needless to say I was hooked. Joe listened to what my goal was and helped me achieve it. Instead of giving me a strict diet, he took a look at what I was already eating and gave me healthy alternatives (no more Weight Watchers). I worked out 2 to 3 times a week with Joe and I walked on my treadmill 2 times a week for additional cardio. Joe checked my food log and had me weigh in weekly to track my progress. I reached my goal of loosing 25 lbs. Joe was my biggest cheer leader and never gave up on me even when I gave up on myself. I also made friends with Joe's other clients along the way and that made it all that much more fun. Here it is 2 years later and I'm still working out at Get Fit Together. Give it a try if you are looking for a more personalized workout plan that gets results by pushing you to your maximum potential.

Fantastic experience: Loved this gym.

Fantastic experience: Loved this gym as they have all facilities and good equipment for workout

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Has everything you need with the convenience of being walking distance if your downtown Lisle. The equipment is clean and well maintained. Also 24/7 which is great for fitting into my busy schedule.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Awesome gym and great equipment! Never had to wait to use equipment and location couldn't be better. Going to miss going here for sure.

Fantastic experience: I have worked with Joe for seven years and at 78 am probably his oldest client. He has kept my body moving through arthritis, a broken leg and a really poor attitude toward exercise. Joe is always professional but somehow manages to make workouts bearable or even fun. His gym is always clean and feels safe even in the midst of this pandemic. If you are serious about embarking on a lifelong program to get in shape and stay healthy, Joe is the man to see.

Fantastic experience: Whether you’re looking to lose weight or firm up GFT is an ideal small gym. They offer personal training and group classes that work on all areas of the body. I’m in the best shape I’ve been in years thanks to Joe and his trainers. I highly recommend GFT, give it a try you’ll get results.

Fantastic experience: After moving back to Chicago from Florida, I missed having a place to have a real workout session. I tried the big gyms, but those are always crowded and honestly, is hard to get a complete workout there. I found Get Fit Together browsing on Google Maps and gave it a try. I don't regret cancelling my membership to the expensive fitness center I was member of. Joe is an excellent trainer! The place is clean and neat. You get everything you need to do your workout regardless of your goals. I have to say, waking up early for the group sessions is hard, but is all worth it! I totally recommend this place if you are serious about committing yourself to seeing results and feeling the difference of an amazing workout!

Fantastic experience: This has been my home gym for over 10 years. I not only use the cardio equipment but also personal train with Joe 3 or 4 days a week.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout! Equipment wise, there’s really nothing more I could ask for. Has everything you need no matter what your fitness goals are. Equipment is maintained very well too. Everyone’s looking for cleanliness above all else in these uncertain times and this place definitely sets a standard. It was actually nice to see a cleaning crew finishing up as I was walking in during business hours. It’s nice to be able to just focus on your workout and not have to worry. The 24 hour access is very convenient for any and all schedules and it’s literally like having your own private gym. It is very reasonably priced as well for that type of luxury. Highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming here for personal training for the last three months and have had a great experience with Joe. He’s knowledgeable, informative, and easy to talk to. He makes workouts fun all while making sure you hit your goals. I’ve had struggles with my diet in the past and he’s been very understanding and patient throughout the process. The gym has everything you need, I would absolutely recommend Get Fit Together and personal training with Joe to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Great gym with a variety of equipment to complete total workout. Joe is a very knowledgeable trainer who creates a great fitness plan to cater to what the client is looking to accomplish. Would recommend for anyone looking to challenge themselves and get results.

Fantastic experience: I LOVE THIS GYM! I was hesitant to commit to personal training but I'm very happy that I did. Joe has been helping me with my form during my exercises to get the most out of my workout and encouraging me to get my reps up to par. The gym is also clean and not too crowded which is very important in the age of covid. Because of Joe, I feel better, look better, and I am trying to make better eating habits. Thanks Joe!

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Arthur for personal training and attending small group training at GFT for the past 3 weeks and have already lost 9 pounds. After a thorough orientation and fitness evaluation, Joe and Arthur work with you to set personal fitness goals, teach you about nutrition, and give you the tools you need to reach your goals. The classes are challenging but Arthur makes sure to explain the exercises, focusing on using proper form and provide alternatives for all levels or to work around any injury. During personal training sessions, Arthur is motivating and challenges me to keep me going when I want to stop. The weekly personal training holds me accountable with both nutrition and workouts. Arthur is knowledgeable about correct technique to prevent injury and creating different and challenging workouts. I've joined other gyms, done classes and worked with other trainers in the past and I've seen the most results with GFT.

Fantastic experience: This gym is just what I needed. A local gym, about 2 minutes from me, where I can come work out before anyone else in the house is awake. The classes are small enough, that the personal trainer is able to make sure I have the correct form. Everyone is very friendly, especially to newer people. Great location with plenty of parking. A place to refill my water bottle. I try to get there a little early so I can warm up on the treadmill or on the rowers. This place is mostly about resistance training, but they do incorporate some cardio depending on the day or schedule.

Fantastic experience: As a recent college graduate, not only did I receive a diploma, I also gained a lot of weight! Trying to juggle school, studying and living a healthy lifestyle was hard for me to obtain and I was always very inconsistent with it. I was tired of this routine and never getting any results. So I decided to search for gym memberships and personal training sessions. I've met and spoke to various gym owners and tried a couple free trials but none of them intrigued me like GFT did. What won me over about GFT was the fact that they provide nutrition guidance. As someone whose had eating problems before, nutrition was one if not the most important factor I was looking for in a training package. I've only been at GFT for about a month but I'm already seeing results thanks to Arthur whose one of the personal trainers at GFT. He helps you stay motivated and pushes you beyond your limits to achieve your goals. He's constantly checking on you to see if everything is going well and if you're struggling with anything. He's very supportive and nice like everyone else at GFT. I would highly recommend this gym for anyone who wants to lose weight, improve their health or obtain a healthy lifestyle.

Fantastic experience: Needed a push to get back on track. Joe and Keith give that push and I’m excited to see where I will be in the next few weeks. Lots of support from workouts to nutrition to make sure I’m heading in the right direction!

Fantastic experience: When you know you need to make a change, sometimes even making the first step of filling out a online appointment request is hard. I am SO THANKFUL that I continued the request and attended my fitness assessment. I nearly cried during that assessment, realizing how badly I needed help and how out of shape I had become. Get Fit Together is hands down the best gym that I have ever been to. The personalized attention that Joe provides to each client really empowers you to WANT to do better and get healthy. The workouts are custom to your needs and modified to your fitness ability. Joe and his team gently get you out of your comfort zone and encourage you to do your best. Everyone I've met at the gym has been very supportive and non-judgmental. If you are looking for a great place to start your fitness transformation, contact Joe today!

Fantastic experience: I'm 47 & headed into the best shape of my life thanks to Joe & his staff at GTF. Weekly weigh ins & nutritional help has me reaching my goal weight loss -30lbs after only 9short months. Now the real work begins. BIGGER BETTER STRONGER!

Fantastic experience: I've been with GFT for just over 3 months and the difference is amazing. I'm down 15 pounds and feel great. If you're looking for personalized training from people who truly care about the individual this is the place to be. All of the trainers are extremely knowledgable and encouraging. I highly recommend this place to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I've never met an entire staff who is well trained, honest, and knowledgeable in what they do. Joe McDonald and his GFT staff make working out fun and actually enjoyable. They truly care for your well-being and strive to make your goals achievable.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough great things about Get Fit Together! Joe and his staff are very knowledgeable and take the time to help everyone, individually, to accomplish their goals. I had worked out on and off for many years but it wasn't until I came to Get Fit that I was introduced to a healthy nutrition plan. Now im seeing results that I didnt know I was capable of! It's not only a gym but a lifestyle. This is the place to go if you are serious about a healthy lifestyle as well as looking & feeling your best! Thank you Joe!

Fantastic experience: GFT is an awesome place to go and get a great workout. Workouts are fun and creative and time flies by. That trainers are friendly, knowledgeable and motivating. The facility itself has all the equipment anyone would need and the gym members are all really fun and positive. I highly recommend GFT if you're looking to make significant changes to your health or you're just looking to experience fun workouts.

Fantastic experience: By far the best gym experience ever. I was older and more out of shape than anyone else at the classes, but I was actually happy to get there and work. Everyone super friendly. I've taken all kinds of classes through the years and what I appreciate the most are instructors who know how to push me just enough without crossing into injury. There's a line. And the 3 different people I worked with at GFT knew that line for me. They were absolutely terrific. Joe is extremely attentive and mellow at the same time. An unusual combo. And the yoga class I took with Donny was amazeballs. There I am in this unglamorous gym, a gym gym, but with some pretty cool Indian dance music playing in the background and Donnie transporting us to a great place, great energy, great instruction. Again, knowing the line. Watchful and friendly. If I lived in Lisle, or anywhere in the western Chicagoland burbs, I'd for sure continue with a year-long membership. I was only there for a short time, and am so glad I tried GFT out. But now it's going to be tough finding someone comparable back home.

Fantastic experience: Having GFT Personal Training & Group Fitness, 4723 Main St, Lisle, IL 60532 in Lisle is great!

Fantastic experience: The workouts are always different so it never gets old and boring. I feel healthy and stronger and have lost some weight too. But really just wanted to feel more energy and stronger more than anything. Joe has helped me eat better too.
