Member Testimonials
The trainers are wonderful, and very knowledgeable about all the machines, settings, and how they work. They really take the time to make sure you're comfortable, and know what each machine does and how it's a benefit. Although it's very pricey, the group settings are relatively small, and the trainers attempt to give everyone the attention they need. Highly recommend!
David is helpful, encouraging and knowledgeable. we like the smaller studio size and flexibility of being there when it works best for us.
Great staff! Keep it moving and make it fun
It’s like a family. All the trainors are wonderful and take great care with their clients.

I love that I get an individualized workout routine that is completed in only 20 minutes.
I’ve been training at The Exercise Coach in Five Forks for over four years, and it quickly became a critical piece of my overall weekly strength and cardio sessions / events. Exercise Coach provides the essential strength-training foundation that powers everything else.
The efficiency and effectiveness is great. The adaptive, computer-driven equipment is challenging and tailors the resistance to your strength levels and past results, delivering a comprehensive, "right-intensity" strength workout in just 20 to 30 minutes.
The studio is clean, and the team of trainers is top-notch—knowledgeable, encouraging, and consistently focused on proper form and safety.
If you're looking for a smart, time-efficient, effective strength program to elevate your weekly exercise routine, Exercise Coach should be a go-to for you.
There's so much to like about your studio. All the coaches are great, and I like that they switch them around so we're comfortable with all of them. They are encouraging and I push myself a lot harder with them than if I were working out alone. I love getting stronger and am looking forward to aging with strength.

I like the program and the machines and I appreciate being able to see my progress.
I really like the coaches. I like that they make sure my posture is correct for each exercise, and they are really focused on my efforts. They explain what muscles are working and they answer all of my questions. All of the coaches are very knowledgeable. They are very encouraging, and when it is time for a change, they are very specific about what exercises and weight amounts I am ready for next.
I have been very happy with The Exercise Coach program and everyone I have worked with there. I have been with them for a year now. When renewing my subscription, I chose to stay with the individual coaching plan vs. the group plan because I really appreciate the individualized attention and coaching.
In addition to being professional, all members of the entire coaching staff are just very nice people. It is a pleasure to work with each of them.
No pressure.
The coaches are knowledgeable, pleasant and professional. The studio is clean and organized. I just recently started and so far I am very satisfied. Thank you.
I will continue to recommend. I am getting stronger,. I love the consistency. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful, but not over doing it. They let you get into the grove.
The reporting could be more consistent, you should provide it to the client 1x a quarter or 2x a year and walk them through their progress.
20 m8nutes, 2x weekly, efficient workout. Trainers are excellent andare able to adjust your workouts to what is going on with you (ex., surgery an recovery). Shout out to Ian and Trent - you are amazing!
Convenient, clean and friendly.
The coaches. I have never stepped foot in a gym and their knowledge, encouragement, and individualized approach have made it a fun and worthwhile experience.
The staff at my studio are all great. They are very responsive to my requests and input on my program. I am able to schedule sessions easily by email and through the app. The studio is very close to my home which is a big plus.
Size, trainers and personalized workouts
Adam and all the coaches care and take an interest in their clients improvement. Good variety of machines. My wife and I really enjoy your The Exercise Coach!
Small size, personal attention, progress tracking, efficient training protocols, trainers who genuinely care about helping you meet your goals.
The process is great and the staff is very supportive.
I've been coming to The Exercise Coach on Meramec Bottom Road for a year now, and it has become one of the most valuable parts of my weekly health routine!
As a chiropractic physician and functional medicine practitioner, I understand how important maintaining muscle mass is for long-term health, mobility, and metabolic function. I also recognize how easily injuries can happen when people use gym equipment without proper instruction, positioning, or supervision. That's one of the things I appreciate most about The Exercise Coach.
Their small-group sessions provide a wonderful sense of camaraderie while still allowing for individualized attention. They also offer one-on-one sessions for those who prefer a more private experience. The computerized exercise equipment continuously challenges you based on your abilities while tracking your strength and progress over time. I love being able to actually see my improvements!
Before joining The Exercise Coach, I spent two years at OsteoStrong preparing my body for more challenging resistance training. Living with an autoimmune condition and being prone to injury, I wanted to approach weightlifting carefully and progressively. I'm happy to say that after an entire year at The Exercise Coach, I haven't experienced a single workout-related injury!
The improvements I've experienced go well beyond increased strength and endurance. I've noticed improvements in chronic right-sided sacroiliac joint pain, better physical resilience, and, perhaps most importantly to me, measurable improvements in my fasting insulin levels. Seeing positive changes in my laboratory results has been incredibly rewarding because it reinforces that what I'm doing is making a difference beyond how I look or feel.
There's also something incredibly empowering about starting my morning with a challenging workout. I leave feeling stronger, more energized, and mentally prepared to tackle whatever the day brings. It sets a positive tone for my entire day and motivates me to continue making healthy choices.
After a year, I can genuinely say that The Exercise Coach has helped me make strength training a consistent, enjoyable, and sustainable part of my life. I appreciate the supportive environment, the individualized challenges, and the ability to track meaningful progress. It's an investment in my health that I'm very glad I made!
Small.size, good coaches
Keeps me in shape. I like the personalized training.
I came in a little skeptical that 20 minutes twice a week would benefit me. Now, I'm a fan.
the coaches are excellent. there are multiple options for sessions. the facility is very clean.
All the coaches in Lake Zurich are great to work with. They are very encouraging and adjust workouts as needed to adapt to personal needs and preferences. This location is very convenient and has ample parking available.
