Lance's Gym — Local services in Chicago

Training with Lance over the past year has changed my life. I came in with a lot of weight to lose and no lifting experience. Since then, I’ve reached every goal we set last year and my deadlift has gone up by 100 pounds alone.

What makes Lance different is how he met me exactly where I was. There was no judgment, no pressure, no rush, and I never got injured. Every session was tailored to my goals and experience level, with a focus on smart, sustainable progress.

Lance and the community at this gym taught me everything I know about powerlifting. The expert coaching and supportive atmosphere made it easy to stay consistent and keep improving.

If you're looking for a trainer who understands how to get real results in a safe and encouraging environment, this is the place. I'm proud of what I’ve accomplished here and excited to keep going.

This is an amazing powerlifting gym in the city that has everything you could ever possibly need. The owner, Lance was quick to respond and super accommodating to me while I was traveling to Chicago and needed to get some training in. He set me up with a guest pass for the duration of my stay, and welcomed me like I was one of his regulars. Everyone I met at the gym was friendly! I honestly had some of the best training sessions here. Great environment, competition standard equipment, machines galore, and even the sweetest gym dog, Sadie, that got all the pets and head scratches between sets! Ample, free parking out front, and great hours. Let me tell you— I was BIG SAD when it was time to leave and head back to California. Thanks for creating such an awesome space and community here. Very grateful that I have such a badass gym to call home when I’m back in...

I was working out at home and felt like I needed more. Lance was recommended by my brother-in-law so I signed up for some sessions. Lance is a true pro. He is very patient when showing me how to do things knowing that this is new to me. He doesn’t push so hard that I can’t walk the next day but I can see and feel the impact of the work. I manage a business and have 2 kids. Training with Lance gives me time to focus on myself and has helped me manage my stress. I have never felt so physically and mentally strong. This is not a cardio gym but a muscle gym. The clients are all very kind and respectful to each other. Very diverse group of men and women all at different levels. Do yourself a favor and get...
