Juan has been terrific as a personal trainer. With 2 sessions per week with him for the last 12 weeks, I have made great progress increasing weights, reps, and overall strength. He always pushes just enough to stretch my limits and adds a lot of bonus moves to keep the routines always challenging. His flexibility to accommodate my travel schedules is greatly appreciated.

Updating my review from last year: the club manager, Ryan, manages this place better than I've seen any other facility managed in quite some time - I have watched the reviews go from 3.5 stars to 5 stars since he started working here. His primary goal is to help people join the fitness community and "make healthy happen" - he truly upholds AF's standard of quality. The club is clean, equipment is well maintained, the trainers are happy and willing to help answer questions that anyone may have, and the members are loyal. I will be a member of this club for as long as I reside in the area.

Joined the club temporarily to train for a half marathon. I expressed concerns regarding safety- while running in the treadmill you aren’t able to see behind you. Definitely scary when you have head phones/ear buds in and dont know who is behind you. Decided to come back to the gym atmosphere, the customer service is great. I once again expressed my safety concern to Ryan and within 1 week a mirror was up. Ryan is fantastic to work with, even sent me a message to let me know my concern would be heard and taken care of. Great energy and motivator!!!! Would recommend Anytime Fitness- Marengo.

After being a member here for two years, I think it’s finally time I write an in-depth review of this gym. Let me just say that before I state any problems or criticisms, that this is the best gym in Marengo.
Pros: Friendly staff, minimum set of equipment, open 24 hours, close to home if you live in Marengo, good atmosphere if you know people who attend.
Before I state the cons, it’s important that I give a little background about the gym. It’s been in operation for just a few years. The location and all of the equipment was inherited from a previous gym called APTA. APTA was failing, and the franchisees of Anytime in the area saw an opportunity. This leads me to my first criticism of the gym: investment and improvement. In the time that Anytime has been in operation, the owners have made the absolute minimum of investment into the establishment, despite having a consistent and substantial increase in membership. At $42.00 per month, you’re really paying a lot for what you get. Anytime Fitness is a franchise, so the individual owners have the liberty to set the rates. Many other Anytime fitness locations are much larger and are typically closer to the low-to-mid $30.00 range.
Less in depth cons: The size of the gym is tiny, and given the owners refusal to relocate to a more appropriate location, that’s unlikely to change. There are no showers, very little open floor space, and has a generally cramped feel. The parking lot is also tiny, and often times the gun store next door will fill up the parking lot. The temperature of the gym is set by the gun store next door, so often the temperature is inappropriate for a workout environment. In the winter, there is little effort put into snow and ice removal: when you step out of your car, expect to walk through some snow or slide on ice. The lighting in the parking lot is poor, and often dark.
The cleanliness of the gym is poor, and this leads me into a more serious criticism. Because the gym is so small, there is no water sources besides the sinks and drinking fountains. This means that the janitor tasked with cleaning the gym never mops or washes down any equipment. For as long as I can remember, the pull up bars and many other holds have been coated in a slimy/sticky sort of goop. To make matters even worse, the gym doesn’t supply any towels or spray bottles so that someone can wipe down the equipment themselves. All they have are disinfecting wipes, which themselves contribute to these nasty layer of sebum, while not actually removing the problem.
My final major criticism has to do with the ethics of the staff and management. Apathy towards the condition and the cleanliness of the facility is never good, but neither is the employments of ethically-compromised individuals. Many low-skilled jobs don’t attract the best candidates, and that is no exception here. The turnover rate of personal trainers in this club is high, as well as with the GMs. The first general manager of this gym was known to threaten members, as well as sell steroids and other drugs out of the club (he quit). At about the same time that this GM was present, there was a personal trainer who would constantly encourage his clients to use steroids. He would give his older male clients detailed instructions of how they could receive testosterone from their doctor, and if their doctor wouldn’t prescribe, he’d recommend another doctor for them. This personal trainer ended up getting promoted to general manager at a new club in another state. At this time, there is a trainer at the gym who has very little regard for professional conduct and dress, and goes out of his way to provoke members of the club.
I would have given the gym a 3-star review, if it were not for the management ignoring my recent complaints about the facility. These were the condition of certain pieces of equipment, and the cleanliness I described above.

Marengo is a small town and there aren’t many gym options to choose from. However, given the low volume and great quality machines...Anytime won my vote. Only downfall is that its kind of expensive... not sure if thats because its in the middle of nowhere and a low volume location? Great customer sevice from Ryan though! Gets the job done.

What a great afternoon I spent at Anytime Fitness in Marengo this past Wednesday!
I had gone in to talk with the manager about possibly doing some on-site marketing to the members there and WOW! what an experience!
Ryan, the manager, was enthusiastic about the idea from word one and had some ideas of his own regarding how and where to best set up, and things that his members would likely be most interested in hearing about as well as when I could expect to have the greatest number of members in the center to maximize my exposure.
Ryan had to run the idea past corporate of course to get the 'go-ahead' and promised to get back to me in the next day or two.
I heard back from him that afternoon! How often do you hear the phrase, "I'll get back to you in the next day or two", and have to call them back a week later? Not at Anytime Fitness in Marengo! The same afternoon, blew my mind!
On the day, Ryan's enthusiasm was still high and infectious.He showed me the best place to set up, helped me re-arrange some furniture went around to the members who were present and let them know I was there, even brought a few over and introduced them personally!
Finally, going above and beyond, Ryan whipped out his phone and did a 'Live' shoot for his Facebook page, introducing me to an even larger community.
I can't say enough about Ryan and the Anytime Fitness facility in Marengo Illinois. I intend to join in the future and will be sending/recommending them to my patients going forward.
Thanks Ryan for a great afternoon!
