The best!
Great gym. Great trainer - Alexandro. He knows what he is doing and genuinely wants you to learn.
Very friendly staff, very clean facility, great free workout sessions, great locker rooms, diverse and well kept equipment.
Nice gym, has everything you need but the weight area gets pretty crowded. One of the older FFC's.
Excellent health club with tons of amazing equipment. I must say that FFC does a really good job of staying on top of the latest exercise trends. I especially enjoy the Yoga and cardio kick boxing classes. Very nice.
FFC Halsted isn't my main FFC location, but it's so easy to get to from the Red Line, Clark St bus, Halsted Bus, and Belmont bus that I do stop in on the weekends. It's definitely one of the most convenient locations if you're northside resident.
This location seems a bit smaller than others, and there's no pool access. It's still a great location for cardio and weights, and the weekend crowd is light, even in January. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and that seems to transfer over to the members as well. Everyone I've interacted with has been courteous, and it's great to be a member of a non-threatening gym.
Overall, I think this is a great location, and the only reason it doesn't get a full five stars is that there is no pool (my preferred method for cardio).
