Bears Fit

Fantastic experience: Let's be serious now. Bears fit is clean. Their employees are kind and helpful. Their equipment is new and maintained. Worth trying out the free pass. You'll want to stay. Gang

Fantastic experience: Cathy was very helpful and nice. Excellent customer service

Fantastic experience: Clean, tons of variety, not too busy, and a kind staff.

Fantastic experience: I travel 2-3 times per month for work to different cities in Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey and always try to find the best local gyms to catch a couple of workouts at. This is my first time in Chicago and walked into BearsFit and was very impressed with the facilities. They have three state-of-the-art lines of equipment including hammer strength, nautilus, and hoist. I called ahead of time to check on the price of a day pass and ended up speaking with Miguel in membership sales who was extremely professional and accommodating with getting me a very reasonable fee for the week to work out there. This will definitely be my gym of choice on my monthly trips back to Chicago! Thank you Miguel and staff and I will see you guys in mid-october when I'm back for work!

Fantastic experience: Coach Laura is AWESOME

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out. If you ever stop by ask for Miguel. He is the best

Fantastic experience: This gym is pretty awesome, besides their mask policy. Their facilities are always kept so clean

Fantastic experience: Came here for Open Gym time using ClassPass and it was a very clean and nice gym. There is plenty of space and equipment to work with and there is a nice large green area for you to work on different exercises. There were a couple of group exercise rooms and the AC was working well. The equipment had the bears color theme which was fun, even as a non-sports fan. The bathroom was very clean and has a steam and dry sauna so you can relax or warm up pre/post workout. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to go to a clean and spacious gym.

Fantastic experience: Very clean, great equipment, love the steam room. Decent pricing too, almost luxury for average price.

Fantastic experience: Great place, lovely staff particularly Adan who was very helpful.

Fantastic experience: Overall the gym is so good and cleans the team works there is a friendly team I usually go there around 11:30 to 1 and the gym is good The only thing I would like them to add is a hair dryer in the men's locker room that will be nice and some more Machine

Fantastic experience: Fully equipped gym, sauna, steam bath, recovery section, clean, plenty of extra space to warm up, towels, water fountain. Personally I like the squats section! Great job Bears!

Fantastic experience: Good gym, a bit pricy and gets crowded at night, but equipment is well kept and they play Fox News, which is worth an extra star.

Positive experience: Newer gym with wide verify of equipment. It’s kept pretty clean for the most part. I just have to say other gyms in the area have memberships starting at 9.99, bears starts at almost 60 a month. Not sure if it’s worth the money since there’s no basketball court, swimming pool etc.

Positive experience: Great place for working out. If you are looking for a really good personal trainer...ask for Jack.

Fantastic experience: We have tried tons of gyms in the area and bears fit is our favorite one by far. The facility is clean and comfortable and the prices are reasonable. Sometimes the sales people at gyms in general can be frustrating to work with but we had a wonderful experience with Miguel C. Miguel is a genuine person who really cares about your health & well being. If you are searching for gyms this one should be at the top of your list.

Positive experience: This gym is pretty awesome, besides their mask policy. Their facilities are always kept so clean, and everyone keeps to themselves and are very fit- oriented which Is great, and I love how no one stares at you while you workout. The steam room, sauna room and showers are almost always empty which gives you space to yourself, and so clean. However, we unfortunately had to cancel our memberships because they almost kicked us out for not wearing a mask. My BF was told to put it back on, and he did just for show. Then when he was lifting took it off again and another employee came up to him and said that if he doesn't keep it on then they will kick him out. He told my BF that the reason they are enforcing it , is because people have cancelled their memberships due to the other people not wearing a mask and feeling uncomfortable. Also once when I was on the step machine I had a birds-eye view of the facility, and had noticed that they had made a lady to walk around and make sure everyone is wearing the masks. Well jokes on y'all, After being a happy member for almost a year, we had no choice but to switch gyms because of this. So many other gyms in the area are not enforcing the mask mandate. For a gym who is so health oriented to be forcing their guests to wear a mask, is pretty messed up. And very unhealthy to do so. Such a shame because I REALLY liked this gym.

Fantastic experience: Best fitness place in the area. It has everything you need. And all at a great price.

Fantastic experience: Great gym - very clean, new modern equipment and layout, large open area (sports turf) for functional training. Very friendly staff and positive energy that you feel as soon as you walk in.

Fantastic experience: This is an amazing place for work out. Like their variety of classes, top notch equipments, vibrant staff and coaches and clean locker room facilities. Highly recommend this place..wish I’d have joined it many years ago…

Fantastic experience: I love the gym. Amazing people and staff. It’s getting a bit too crowded now. They might need to move locations soon.

Fantastic experience: Great fitness center. Everything you can think of. Attendant at the Bears shop was awesome. Welcome crew did a great job.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality This gym is the best gym I have ever joined. The people, atmosphere, and amenities made me come in every single day. It hurts me to leave! 10/10 recommend.

Fantastic experience: Love the experience and layout of this gym! It has more than everything it needs to offer in order for someone to better themselves! Also, in addition to the amazing 40 yards of turf, you are also surrounded by an environment of extremely friendly and helpful employees. This is an incredible gym.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful and amazing staff Brendon, Mike, & coach Sam they let you feel you belong here from the first day highly recommend to join

Fantastic experience: Love this place. Nice equipment, super friendly staff. Gets bz at times just like any other gym

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place! Clean building and clean equipment! Enough room and equipment spaced out to be covid friendly. Really enjoy going there and seeing the friendly staff. Even with masks on I can tell they are smiling and genuinely happy to be there. All of the Patrons look happy to be there and do do their part to clean up after themselves wether it be wiping down the equipment when they are finished or re racking the weights they used. Huge shout out to Laura and Cat! They are fantastic people who you can trust to work with you. Would recommend this place to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality FYRE GYM, staff is always so nice and helpful. 10/10 would recommend!

Fantastic experience: The staff is very welcoming and helpful!!! Organized and clean, love working out there!The equipments are always working, if it breaks they quickly fix it.

Fantastic experience: This is an amazing place with fantastic staff. They can do it all. I need a trial then a membership!

Fantastic experience: Top notch workout facility. Bears fit has quality equipment and exemplary customer service. I couldn't be more happier that I made this place my workout home.

Fantastic experience: With 5 deadlifting platforms and 5 squat racks, there's always an open spot for me to be able to workout. There's a bunch of cool features here but never having to wait to use a barbell is worth a 5 star rating.

Fantastic experience: I’ve only been to their recovery center, and I LOVE it!!! Highly recommend. Staff is phenomenal!!! Miguel is super great and helpful!

Fantastic experience: Super awesome staff, helpful and welcoming. Gym is big and even on busy days, tons of equipment and room to workout. Also Jake D., trainer, is amazing. Worked with him for a few sessions and helped me get new workouts and a routine down.

Fantastic experience: This is my favorite gym hands down. I love the energy and the people that work there. Variety of members and plenty of update-to-date equipment. Women and Men own Steam room and Sauna Room with fancy showers. Self-combination lock lockers. Delicious freshly made protein shakes for reasonable price. I am also working out with Rachel who is amazing, and supportive. Miguel helped sign up and has been most accommodating even months after, not just when you sign up. Yoga classes are super fun, try one, it's included! Great value and great service. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Love this gym and the atmosphere here. The staff is friendly and engaging. Kathy in the recovery center is awesome and always helping me out. The equipment and turf field is legit; one of the cleanest gyms I’ve ever been to. 10/10 would recommend!

Fantastic experience: The services are just as valuable as the staff. Plenty of equipment and machines to choose from. The group workout rooms can be used by individuals in between classes and the recovery equipment is state of the art. Not to mention the indoor field which makes you feel like you're one of the Bears

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Huge and perfect for social distancing. Good protocols. Nice locker room and a really cool recovery center. Best gym in Vernon hills.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facilities, very pleasant staff, fair pricing for the amenities. Somewhat far, would love to see more of these around the area!

Fantastic experience: Ultimate place for full body rejuvenation. Highest level of work out options for any routine. Welcoming staff, attentive trainers, very clean space and machines. CHICAGO BEARS pride all around you. No Games

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in the Nation. It is well worth a 35 - 45 minute commute to work out. Classes are outstanding. It is clearly a huge plus for the area.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been struggling to get back in the gym on a consistent basis but several weeks ago I tried out the touchdown groove (hip hop class) w/ Kristina Spentzos. This class has been my drive every Thursday & I find myself rearranging things to make sure I’m there! Kristina is super outgoing and down to earth! I love her energy and am so happy I connected w/ the class & my favorite Bears Fit instructor!

Fantastic experience: It smells good, the bathrooms r cool, and everyone is kind and accepting and they don’t judge if you’re overweight and tease you about something u can’t do. Just amazing

Fantastic experience: Great gym, awesome equipment.

Fantastic experience: I am not one to “love going to the gym,” I’ve never been that person, but I LOVE this place. When I come in in the morning I look forward to seeing MARK LUPA, when he’s not there, it’s just not the same!! He is so helpful and has 100% changed my opinion on what a gym should be like. His bubbly persona wakes me up and motivates me to have a kick a$$ workout! Worth every penny, with AMAZING equipment, sauna, steam room, recovery room.... the list could go on. GO THERE. WORKOUT. SAY HI TO MARK LUPA!

Fantastic experience: Obviously this is an AWESOME gym but what makes it an even better experience is the Staff. Kudos to Mark and "Lupa" for my making my experience there a great one! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Came in for a free trial and signed up when I was finished because the facility is so nice. Friendly staff, clean facilities, and mostly importantly deadlift platforms with bumper plates.

Fantastic experience: This is a beautiful facility with motivating and kind staff. High quality amenities and love the recovery center. I’ve never felt so encouraged and engaged at a gym before.

Fantastic experience: Put it this way. Why would a Packers fan go to Bears Fit? Because there is every other gym and then there is Bears Fit. It’s clean. There are an abundance of machines and squat rocks. It’s well staffed. It’s extremely reasonably priced. Tons of parking. I love this place and you will too.

Fantastic experience: Incredibly clean and never too busy! Having come from Lifetime which cost twice as much and was always packed, I can tell you that you won't be disappointed by the value you get for $54 per month at Bears Fit.

Fantastic experience: This gym hits every mark. They have great equipment (some of which you can't find in any other gym) in a facility that is easy to navigate and kept super clean. What really differentiates them is their staff and the service they deliver. From someone like Mark at the front desk who greets you when you're walking in or out the door and is quick to make certain the person you have an appointment with knows you're ready to go, to the fitness staff like Nick who does a great job customizing a personal training regimen that takes into consideration chronic injuries and the goals you want to achieve. Or Chris (aka Brady), who does amazing soft tissue work that not only minimizes the risk of future injuries but enables you to continue making progress on your fitness goals. Whether you're getting Cryo therapy (see Raymond, he's awesome), soft tissue work or personal training, the staff communicates with each other on what they're seeing with you and works together on your needs and goals. Outstanding service with a staff that works hard to make your experience great every time you walk into the gym.

Fantastic experience: I have to say that my experience at Bears fit has been phenomenal. The manager Mark Palmieri Has been incredibly friendly to me and all that I have seen. Carrie Brown as well as Mark Lupa and Raymond and finally Rachel have been tremendously friendly and helpful just about every single day that I have been here. Sabrina, a trainer, also has been very kind and friendly and helpful. Compared to other fitness centers that I have belong to, I believe this is probably the best. !!! Most importantly Mark Palmeri, the manager, at Bears fit, as well as Chris Brady saved my life. I had a small stroke and they got me to the hospital ASAP. They will never ever ever be forgotten by me and I will never change Gyms!!! Steven Harris, MD

Fantastic experience: I love working out here. The staff is really nice and friendly, they are always trying to make sure that you are getting the help you need or motivating you on your way in or out. In addition, all of there classes are great and helpful. Facility is very clean as well. I’m glad I signed up here. Due to all the support, advice, and help.. I have actually lost weight. I would recommend to anyone trying to lose weight.
