Training with Lance over the past year has changed my life. I came in with a lot of weight to lose and no lifting experience. Since then, Iβve reached every goal we set last year and my deadlift has gone up by 100 pounds alone.
What makes Lance different is how he met me exactly where I was. There was no judgment, no pressure, no rush, and I never got injured. Every session was tailored to my goals and experience level, with a focus on smart, sustainable progress.
Lance and the community at this gym taught me everything I know about powerlifting. The expert coaching and supportive atmosphere made it easy to stay consistent and keep improving.
If you're looking for a trainer who understands how to get real results in a safe and encouraging environment, this is the place. I'm proud of what Iβve accomplished here and excited to keep going.
Couldnβt ask for a better coach or gym!

Been hittin' up Lance's Gym in Bridgeport for a minute now, and lemme tell yaβthis place is the real deal. Dropped $75 for the monthly membership, no hidden fees or BS. It's got all the heavy-duty gear: squat racks, deadlift platforms, specialty barsβyou name it. Lance himself is always around, offering tips and hyping you up. The vibe? Straight-up old-school, no frills, just gains. Everyone's cool, spotting each other and sharing advice. If you're serious about lifting and want a solid community, this is the spot.

This is an amazing powerlifting gym in the city that has everything you could ever possibly need. The owner, Lance was quick to respond and super accommodating to me while I was traveling to Chicago and needed to get some training in. He set me up with a guest pass for the duration of my stay, and welcomed me like I was one of his regulars. Everyone I met at the gym was friendly! I honestly had some of the best training sessions here. Great environment, competition standard equipment, machines galore, and even the sweetest gym dog, Sadie, that got all the pets and head scratches between sets! Ample, free parking out front, and great hours. Let me tell youβ I was BIG SAD when it was time to leave and head back to California. Thanks for creating such an awesome space and community here. Very grateful that I have such a badass gym to call home when Iβm back in Chicago again.

Itβs been such a great place for me! No frills gym full of people who just want to get in a good workout. Lance is such a kind guy whoβs willing to help however he can. You can tell he loves the sport and wants others to have a good experience. Sadie, the gym dog, is also the best!

A little bit hard to find, but everyone is super nice so you'll be able to find your way!
The gym is pretty raw and it's like taking a time machine back to the glory days of lifting. Lance is one of the most stand up guys you will ever meet and has a great gym with great members!!
A wide variety of equipment for different interests (machines, racks, weights, etc.)
Lots of parking which is hard to find in the city!!! Truly a diamond in the rough of gyms!

I was working out at home and felt like I needed more. Lance was recommended by my brother-in-law so I signed up for some sessions. Lance is a true pro. He is very patient when showing me how to do things knowing that this is new to me. He doesnβt push so hard that I canβt walk the next day but I can see and feel the impact of the work. I manage a business and have 2 kids. Training with Lance gives me time to focus on myself and has helped me manage my stress. I have never felt so physically and mentally strong. This is not a cardio gym but a muscle gym. The clients are all very kind and respectful to each other. Very diverse group of men and women all at different levels. Do yourself a favor and get into the gym!

Edit: Limited and changing weekend hours. Please check before you go. I reduced a star due to this.
Weight lifting sepcific bare bones gym. Specializes in powerlifting but you don't need to powerlift to go. Only have a couple cardio machines (bicycle, elipitical). The machines could be in better condition but they are functional. A lot of specialty lifting equipment. Regulars tend to go and everyone is kind, helpful if you have a question. $5 drop in charge for non members.

I understand why Lance's may get a bad reputation. It's not a shiny chain gym with fresh towels at the door and staff wandering around. There's no yoga class calendar, no sauna or pool here. However, Lance's is what I was looking for in a gym. This is a place for people to come and work hard on solid equipment and go home. I grew up with a bench and free weights in my Dad's garage and this is essentially that. Lance is a genuine, salt of the earth type of guy. Everyone here minds their own business and there's no one peacocking around or wasting my time sitting on a piece of equipment while on their phones.

This is a badass gym. Itβs been a few years since I lived in Chicago, but this is where I lifted. Lance was always an amazing guy and ran an amazing gym. There was a raw, hardcore atmosphere. A lot of places try to copy this without success, but itβs not something that can be faked. Lanceβs Gym is the real deal. The other members were great and welcoming. The staff was helpful, always willing to give you a spot, and share their knowledge.

Lance is a great coach and gym owner, the hours are good and the equipment is great. You can go and train on your own, or Lance can offer you one-on-one coaching or training -- as a brand new gym goer, this was a huge help for me because it helped me learn how to do exercises safely. Lance is also frequently around to answer questions or offer help, and many of the other members will also help out if you have questions. The whole place is a supportive and healthy environment!
