I love AST. The trainers are great and the workouts are always challenging. Their approach of incorporating body composition measurement and nutrition coaching on top of workouts really helps you measure your level of fitness and health - not just weight. And they're always adding new things to keep it interesting, like HIIT classes (not for the faint of heart) and yoga, plus periodic focused workshops on specific movements.
I've never worked out more consistently in my life. It's amazing how your mentality can shift when trainers care and are invested in your progress. AST provides a level of support that I haven't experienced anywhere else.
AST has transformed how I think about my fitness. I value the 30-minute workouts that challenge and push me to my limits while also recognizing any issues I may be having to ensure we prevent injury. Zach, Christine, Morgan and the AST team are all knowledgeable and approachable- they've set the tone for a high-quality gym with a great community culture. They value their members' input and actively work to bring in new opportunities based on feedback. From the nutrition counseling to challenges throughout the year and additional activities, it's definitely worth giving a try... you'll probably end up sticking around for years!
I'm the fittest (and most motivated to stay fit) I've ever been thanks to AST. Most gym experiences I've had have been intimidating and overwhelming and vague in their instruction. Large groups of people just thrown together and expected to get things done with little to no correction, which just leaves a bad taste in the mouth. But at All Strength, the coaches will go over exercises to make sure you do it correctly and will make personalized adjustments based on your ability without any shaming. Because they're willing to recognize that every body is different in it's capability and they want to make your body work for you to attain your goals, whatever that may be. If you put the effort in, you'll come out of every workout feeling sore and amazing. And if you get nervous about working out in groups, the way they set up their semi-private group training is probably the best way to start getting over that social anxiety. Seriously, best strength training gym in Chicago, hands down.
Highly recommend for semi personal or personal training sessions. Modestly priced and great trainers

Great unassuming gym. Knowledgeable trainers, good work outs, small groups equal great results!

Working out here has reinvigorated my weight lifting. The coaches pay close attention to form and create challenging sequences that keep the workouts interesting. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

Good workout
I've been working out at All Strength Training for over 4 years. I can't imagine ever leaving. I am the healthiest, leanest, fittest I have been my entire life. I wish I had found AST 10 years earlier. There are so many things you should know about AST:
1) It is nothing like the gyms you are used to using. I hesitate to tell people I work out in a gym because it feels inaccurate. The space is small enough that you will know everyone within a month of joining. At the same time it has equipment that I have never seen before.
2) The workouts are short, difficult, and appropriate for each individual. I've tried it all before finding AST: P90X, CrossFit, workouts from magazines, trainers from big corporate gyms, working out with friends who were fit. None of it worked long term. I am constantly amazed that I am challenged just enough and making progress week by week. This happens because the team at AST cares enough to take the time to learn about each individual.
3) The trainers are experts. Every trainer (or "Coach") knows what they are doing. A coack never has more than 4 clients at a time and even after 4 years of going to AST, I get corrected on form every workout. They keep pushing, correcting, and encouraging you to get better.
4) Exercise is just a part of the program. Without a doubt the nutrition counseling and bi-weekly check-ins are the best part of AST. This is just included with membership. I know more about food, my own body, and how they interact together than I ever thought possible. As a bonus these bi-weekly check-ins serve as a type of therapy/counseling session for me. It's hard to stay on track over weeks and months. having someone to discuss these challenges helps greatly.
5) The other members. There is something about the people that work out at AST. There is no ego, everyone is supportive. We complain out the workouts together (No one on earth likes Bulgarian Split Squats). We also celebrate milestones together. There is nothing better than cheering someones first Glute Ham Raise or first Bodyweight pull up.
I could go on. Do yourself a favor, check this place out.
I've been going here for over 2 years I love it!
Great customer service and a no-BS attitude from the coaching staff. They take care of everything on their end and make it clear what parts of my program are my responsibility and keep me on target.
