So....working out. Not always easy to stick with. Am I right?!?! I live in the city and started working in the western suburbs a couple months ago, and my big box, neighborhood gym was becoming harder and harder to get to. Ironic, since its only a few blocks away from my apartment! I realized I needed a lifestyle change. I needed a gym with small class sizes, convenient early morning or evening class times, workouts that were challenging, and above all great people! I am SO glad I found i.e. Fitness! Emily and Ian are fantastic - they create challenging workouts and provide modifications for both people who are injured and for those who want to step it up a notch. When I started a couple months ago, I was coming off of physical therapy for a knee injury. Ian and Emily coached me through some modifications early on, but I can honestly say the workouts have rid me of my knee pain! The dynamic, multi-functional exercises have really improved my strength, endurance, and mobility. In addition, Ian and Emily are helping me with nutrition. I cook a LOT - thats not the problem. Its planning ahead and bringing enough healthy things to work so that Im not ravenous by the time I come home in the evening that really derails me. Ian and Emily have a no-nonsense approach and it is very refreshing! Instead of "you cant eat that" or "limit yourself to x amount of calories a day," they promote a healthy, realistic lifestyle and provided me with some practical tips that Im already applying and loving. Im already feeling more positive about meal planning and Im excited about how these changes will impact the way I look and more importantly how I feel. The last thing I want to mention is the great group of humans at i.e. Fitness. The classes are small, and youll get to know everyone. Theres something pretty cool about showing up at 6am to work out and really enjoying yourself and being motivated by those around you! The positive vibes and team atmosphere is a game-changer compared to the big box gym experience in my opinion. My colleagues can definitely tell when Ive been to i.e. Fitness before work - Im definitely more peppy! Do yourself a favor - if you live or work in the western suburbs, come check out i.e. Fitness.

I have been exercising at IE Fitness since they opened, and have found Ian and Emily, as well as their facility, to be top-notch. It is immediately clear this gym is a labor of love for the owners, and they really go above and beyond to help every one of their clients achieve success. I am most appreciative of the willingness (and enthusiasm!) Emily and Ian have to understand each clients specific circumstances and goals, then create a plan that is unique to that client. This is not the place to go if you want to be another meathead. (Although, they could probably make you a meathead too.) No, this is a place to go to build a healthy lifestyle and to understand all the things required for your own wellness, including exercise, nutrition, and recovery. And, Emily and Ian are just cool people and you will enjoy conversations with them about things outside of the gym (books, movies, restaurants, etc.) Overall, I cannot recommend IE Fitness enough.

I have been training with Ian and Emily for about two years now. I continue to go back because the results I see there are far better than any other workouts Ive done. I am a lifelong sports/workout enthusiast. Athletics, working out, and maintaining a strong, toned functional body are at the top of important things in my life. Yes the people are nice and Ive developed relationships there, but its not why I go back. Ive tried about every workout in my day. The best full body/core workout time and time again is at i.e. Fitness. The combination of strength, cardio, core and functional training is outstanding. Every workout is unique and hits every part of my body. Dont be afraid!!!! It has the widest range of ability in group sessions. Ian and Emily do a great job of providing modifications to make exercises both more difficult and easier. If youre looking to change your body, Id start there.

I had been looking to get back into the workout routine for a long time and was struggling to get motivated and get to the gym. That all changed when I found i.e. Fitness. Ian and Emily are so encouraging and uplifting and their gym is like a family atmosphere and is not intimidating at all! This was exactly what I was looking for in a gym. They offer both personal training and boot camp sessions. Their classes are a mix of both cardio and strength training. Just after a few months into it, I already see a change in my physique and energy level! It is all because of I.E. Fitness. This is the best I have felt in a long time. Thank you Ian and Emily for getting my nut in gear!

I have been attending i.e. fitness bootcamp classes on a regular basis for six months and totally love them! Ian and Emily are so friendly and make you feel comfortable immediately. They accommodate different levels of fitness by modifying the exercises. No matter what your level, you can fit in. They are watchful that you are doing the exercises correctly and will work with you to make sure you get it just right. All the people that attend are very friendly and it is a fun environment. Ian and Emily are very encouraging. They will also work with you on nutrition goals. They make working out fun!!

It was really difficult for me to work out because I couldnt get motivated and having a gym membership didnt help much either. After joining i.e. Fitness class over five years ago I have a very different attitude toward exercising. Ian and Emily inspire you to succeed and strive for your goals. Their encouragement, praise & humor creates an atmosphere that motivates you to push yourself to the max. The workout is different every time so you never get bored. I have worked with many trainers at gyms but there are no trainers like Ian & Emily. Thank you!

Ive been a weight lifter and runner since my teens. But after turning 30, keeping the weight off became much more difficult! I.e. fitness helped change all that. First, they helped me get my diet in check and Ive been able to keep off the 15# for over a year. Second, the training is unlike anything Ive ever done before and its done great for my body! Ill never go back to working out and eating like I used to. Ian and Emily are motivating and practice what they preach! Highly recommend this gym!

I started going here about a month ago. Im down 6 pounds! Emily and Ian are wonderful trainers. Every day is a new workout/new challenge/and fresh. The work out is intense but not overwhelming. Ive been to a few gyms and instantly would think "there is no way I can do this" thats not the case here. Everything is scaled up or down depending on your level of fitness. They are very helpful with form and teaching proper form. I would recommend this gym to everyone!

Wow! If you want a great workout, this is your place. They combine strength training with cardio but its different everyday so it never gets boring. The owners Ian and Emily are awesome--so friendly and helpful. They really watch to make sure you are performing the workout correctly so you dont get hurt. If group classes arent your thing, they also do personal training sessions and even have senior training sessions as well.
