    Cardio Kickboxing and Zumba with Jessie is the best. She's fun and energetic!!! She's a very humble instructor and makes you sweat! Parking is a slight issue, very cramped and small.

    Never pay for a personal trainer. Listen closely to a 1 on 1 session and observe all the move and routines that they are teaching; then try out on your own at your own pace and the big price of FREE😉

    The staff here (with the exception maybe 1) is super nice, helpful and cheery. I love the trainers here especially Julius. The hot tub could be hotter though.

    Large gym, plenty of options in equipment, just avoid it on weekdays from 4 to 9pm & Saturday mornings. Sundays are generally great for avoiding crowds!!

    Great place to an get jacked...anyone who complains about this place is nuts...go to ballys then. xsport is 24/7 and i would assume its rather hard to keep up to cleaning everything every hour. Also,

    Great selection of equip. I've never waited long for a machine - no matter what time I'm there. Love the towel service but bin is not convenient. Especially if you forget until your ready to shower :(

    If you aren't using equipment or you are on your phone "resting" get off and let someone jump in for a set. Especially at a busy time.

    Since the organization opened express location near kedzie & belmont it's not nearly as packed in the mornings, but the evening is still a ZOO!

    This gym cares more about festive balloons & odd employee themed parties than it does properly stocking towels & paper towels

    Instead of driving, consider walking/biking/skating/jetpacking from roughly 5-8 pm on Mon through Wed, as there are usually about 20 more cars looking for parking spots than there are actual spots.

    Pros: cheap rates, great city views from atop the garage. Cons: bathroom smells like dirty feet, "towels" would better serve as rags, large TVs are situated behind the machines (explain that!).

    If you spend as much time working out as the dude with the Geri-curls who "works" here does loudly talking to himself or on his cell phone, you'll be in great shape.

    The gym's open 24 hours, so if you aren't patient enough to wait AT MOST five minutes for a machine or weights then go earlier/later. There's loads of equip-so you're still more likely to never wait.

    You can park in the Target garage if the xsport lot is full. Don't park in the Target LOT though, you will get towed. The GARAGE is ok.

    This gym used to be a very good deal. Now despite having signs all over the place that say “24/7/365” they close every night. Overcrowded & stinky. A real shame

    Choni Carter was a no call no show for our 1st PT session. The front desk girl said he's great at what he does but very unreliable! Needless to say I'm canceling my sessions!!!!

    I was one of the first ppl in this gym (even got the membership b4 it opened) but as the membership grew it has gotten worst with the service and # of ppl. Just be forewarned and proceed with caution.

    I love XSport. Compared to Bally's it's a palace! But the youngsters are PIGS! They should be thrown out! Disgusts those of us who respect the facility.

    Drink a preworkout right before you walk in then drop a duece right before you workout. Light as a feather, strong like a horse.

    Your not officially a member of this club till you slam weights, leave weights all over the place like a slob, & leave towels everywhere.

    Great place...if you like disinterested employees that can't be bothered to clean up towels, fill sanitized bottles, clean the crap out of the showers people leave, or fill up the TP rolls. Ugh...

    The young black lady that calls herself a manager won't be much longer. You never get into a customers face without knowing what's going on. Putting her finger in their face/yelling. Unacceptable

    I haven't anything nice to say here other than that one employee misrepresented himself as a physical therapist rather than the personal trainer he actually was.

    If you are using two machines or take longer rwsts between sets on the same machine, please leave the machines open for other guests. Otherwise you're just a rude douche. :-)
