Solid spot in Garfield Ridge! Dropped about $70 for a month-to-month membership—no contracts, which is clutch. Tried the strength training and yoga classes; both were on point. Trainers are friendly and know their stuff. Only knock is the lack of childcare options, which would be a game-changer for us parents. Overall, it's a clean, welcoming gym that fits the neighborhood vibe.

After living on the North Side and in the West Loop areas of Chicago for many years, I spent about a year and a half in Minnesota. When I moved back to Chicago, I temporarily lived near Midway on the southwest side while figuring out my work situation. I decided to check out this gym — it was a bit farther from where I was staying, but it looked much nicer than others in the area. As soon as I walked in, I knew it was a great fit.
Having been a member of several gyms across the city, I can confidently say Vaunt is right up there with the best. I stayed a member for about a year and a half, and would have stayed longer if I wasn’t now moving back to the North Side.
The staff is friendly, the facility is spotless, the machines are impeccably maintained, it’s never too crowded, and the price is very reasonable. I’ll definitely miss this place and highly recommend it.

Gym is great but main characters use the sauna.
People wear their shoes in the sauna and don’t bring towels for their dripping sweat.
I just wanna relax and not hear you sing to me or hear your music. 90’s house music in the sauna? Podcast in the sauna? Hate this.

If you are looking for a clean , well kept , and a friendly gym then I highly recommend coming to Vaunt. Alyssa is my favorite , always so friendly and helpful with everyone . If you all are in the area I suggest you get a day pass to at least check it out once .

I had an amazing experience at Vaunt Gym! Michael went above and beyond by making me a protein shake after my workout, and it was exactly what I needed. The shake was perfectly blended, delicious, and packed with just the right amount of nutrients to fuel my recovery. Michael’s customer service was top-notch, and he really made me feel taken care of. Highly recommend Vaunt for both the great workouts and the fantastic post-gym care! Five stars all the way!

Went on New Year’s Eve to check out this place since every other gym was closed, called prior to going to see if they offered day passes which they did. Once I arrived I thought this gym is very clean,when I told the staff I was there for a day pass made me sign and pay never gave me anymore information. Locker rooms are on a floor below and was totally lost felt very left out and unwelcome I found out after asking a stranger since the staff was to busy talking to someone and he led me to the right place. Overall very clean place and decent amenities but very unwelcoming staff and community. wouldn’t recommend to new gym goers.

In 2018 my plane flight got canceled for 3 days. I was 19 at the time and loved fitness(still do💪🏼). I walked to this gym from the airport and explained my situation. I didn’t have any money, or any place to stay, or get warm(this was the middle of January) and the front desk guy hooked me with a free couple day passes so I could stay out of the elements during their open-hours. This gym will always have a special place in my memories and one day I can’t wait to go back! The vibe and environment were dope. The equipment was top notch and I would recommend this place to anyone!

I was staying in the area for a weekend and was able to get in 2 great workouts at Vaunt. Saturday I participated in Barbell Basics and felt amazing to do some Olympic moves again. Lauren is a phenomenal coach.
Sunday I did a full body because I wanted to use the machines. The equipment is top line.
This is one of the best equipped and motivational gyms I’ve been at. Seriously thank you for a memorable visit. I’d come back in a heartbeat.

If you are not rich or above the middle class, don't bother making this your go-to gym. I used to go here and loved the great environment and equipment. I had stopped coming here because my family issues prevented me from going, so I canceled my membership. I returned a year later and found out instead of being charged $60 for a month. I would be charged now $90! Plus, add on the initiation fee. In total, it would have been $300+!! Now, I'm not upset I have to repay the initiation fee. I'm more upset that the monthly price went up $30; your plan doesn't even come with a free guest anymore. Now, whenever a guest comes, it's $25 every time they come. It is outrageous how they have no discounts for students who are in college, elderly, or the military. So much for being a community gym, lol

The state-of-the-art equipment and diverse range of classes cater to all fitness levels and goals (I highly recommend classes with Patsy).
The cleanliness and organization of the facility reflect a high standard of care for members.
Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned gym-goer, Vaunt offers a welcoming environment to help you achieve your fitness aspirations.
Highly recommend!

I visited this gym on a guest pass a few weeks ago. The gym is definitely a hidden gem. Equipment appears new, members wiped down machines after use, facilities were clean, and there was plenty of room and equipment for everyone. The manager, Lucas, was super helpful in getting us set up for the day and even touched base with us when we left. I'd definitely come back to train here on our next trip back to Chicago.

My fiancé and I became members at Vaunt Fitness in 2018. Since then, the price has almost doubled. When we received an email stating that the price is increasing by $20 per month again, we had questions. When we asked Sean (the owner) about the increase, he proceeded tell us that if we didn’t agree or see the value, then we are “no longer a good fit” and if we wanted to cancel our membership, “that was ok” with him. We didn’t even bring up canceling! I was taken aback because that is not how loyal customers of five years should be treated. Sean didn’t answer any questions we had. So we made the sad decision to cancel our membership that day but since the dues were already taken for the month of August, we were told that we can still workout there until the end of the month. Then yesterday, when we came in, we were greeted by the front desk staff and Sean happened to be standing with them. We scanned in as usual and when he said hello we didn’t acknowledge him because of the way he treated us during our last interaction. Once again, I was taken aback at his reaction. Sean got so mad that we didn’t say hello to him that he told us to leave and not come back. They claim that we will receive a prorated refund. He clearly does not care about his members. This is a prime example of price gouging and Vaunt or the Home Run Inn Pizza Corp will not get another penny from us.
The membership price for the both of us was $135 per month. They have a couple of saunas (that fit about 4-5 people at once) but there are no other amenities. Every gym that I compared in the area is no more than $45 per month. What is he charging so much for? Do yourselves a favor and check out some of the other gyms in the area. We switched to Esporta. They charge $35 per month and have saunas, a pool, a large hot tub, and way more equipment. Also, if you have Blue Cross Blue Shied insurance, they offer a program that costs $25 per person, per month and you can enroll to as many select gyms as you’d like nationwide. Esporta, Planet Fitness, and Anytime Fitness are a few that are part of that program.

I visit the MDW area often for work and decided to ditch the janky hotel gym and grab a day pass at Vaunt. $25 is fairly pricey for a day pass, but after seeing the facility the price felt more justifiable. Was greeted by friendly staff at the counter and given a quick tour by Lucas, who was happy to answer any questions. It is clear that they continually invest in the facility by maintaining & cleaning their equipment.
Will definitely train at Vaunt again the next time I am back in town.

The Vaunt vibe is one of a kind! This gym definitely lives up to its definition; to boast about or praise something. Ever since I first joined this gym just over a year ago, it has provided such a welcoming and inspiring environment that I am proud to be a part of. Everyone truly fits in here, no matter your fitness level! The facility is always clean, well equipped and versatile for any type of training.
The trainers are exceptional. I've been working directly with Coach Steph who has shared an abundance of nutritional and fitness knowledge with me. She is passionate, encouraging and leads by example. I've seen extraordinary results during the time I've been working with her. I would recommend Coach Steph in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, committed and overall motivating personal training/nutritional guidance coach.

This is not your average neighborhood gym. I've been going here for over 6 years. They offer classes that can work for anyone's schedule and personal training. I have personally worked with Coach Steph (Stephanie Johnson) and that is when I had my biggest results. She helped me lower my body fat while increasing muscle at the same time. She really tailored my plans to my busy schedule and lifestyle. The workouts were fun to! Vaunt has state of the art fitness equipment, clean facilities, knowledgeable staff, and a great sense of community. They are always going above and beyond to help the community. I can't brag enough about my gym and my trainer!

3 year update: The gym has stayed relatively similar even though they have increased the price of membership to almost double. I believe it is $90 per month now which is a bit ridiculous at this point. Combine that with their greedy "enrollment fees" which is just them trying to trap into staying paying monthly(They charge you every time you start up your account again, I believe it is $175 just to "activate" your account.) I can't recommend this gym any longer for their incessant greedy practices and lack of meaningful gym upgrades to even possibly justify the prices increases.
Old Review: Great gym, around 40 a month if you split the Duo membership with someone.
Clean environment, a very good variety of work out machines. Mostly do body building and I never feel like I'm lacking any machine. The gym has a medium sized CrossFit section, it's alright not a big fan of its placement and lack of privacy.

I am so happy that I joined Vaunt in 2020. It is just what I needed coming out of the pandemic. The staff is always helpful and polite. The gym is very clean and has every piece of equipment you could possibly need. I have done monthly training programs with trainer Lindsey which have been fantastic. Lindsey has been accommodating answering my inquiries and sharing her expertise to help me reach my goals. She also teaches a few of the group classes which are amazing. The energy and encouragement from the trainers and fellow members are like no other gym I have experienced. After those tough workouts/classes you can also relax in the sauna located in the locker rooms or grab a delicious protein shake and relax in the very comfortable seating area. If you are looking for a gym i highly recommend Vaunt for your fitness needs.

Where do we start with this gym. I’d say by starting with not just calling it your everyday gym. It’s beyond just that. This is a community of people driven, focused, and passionate about health and fitness. Alongside you have a team of people always openly ready to assist you whenever its needed. Vaunt Fitness has helped shape my fitness journey into something I would have never thought possible. I couldn’t be anymore grateful for it. To anyone looking for something more than a gym. I will whole heartedly recommend Vaunt Fitness without any hesitation. Lastly, I’d like to give a tremendous shoutout to my Coach, Lindsey Walls! With her help, she has helped me break through many plateaus. She made me realize you can go way beyond what you believe your limits are with some assistance. Through her personalized structured workouts and open scheduling we’re able to knock out my goals with each passing day, week, and month. Knowing that this isn’t a sprint, but a marathon of a journey. If you’re looking for guidance, I greatly recommend Lindsey Walls as a Coach.

Not only does she help you improve physically but she always makes sure you are improving mentally as well. She is so understanding when it comes to reaching your goals and will ALWAYS push you to reach them. If you’re looking for anyone this is the place and this is the trainer you are looking for.

Of all the gyms I’ve ever gone to, this is by far the best. It is always clean and the community is amazing. Pat, Chase, and Evan do an amazing job of greeting everyone and building personal connections with them. Overall this gym is unmatched.

Love Vaunt Gym! Hours of operation fit with my busy schedule and having quality care for my 3 young kids is an added bonus. Maddie Pehlke has always gone above and beyond in providing comfort and security while making sure she’s fully engaged. Couldnt ask for a better experience from anyone. Stop in and visit Maddie, she’s knowledgeable on many aspects, kind, and professional.

I was skeptical signing my 11 yrs son up with a personal trainer and decided to see what Vaunt Fitness had to offer. The first impressions when I walked thru the doors were very welcoming. The staff were greeting, professional and right away took interest in what I was looking for for my son. Joe took the time to not only answer my questions, but listened to my son on the goals he wanted to achieve, walked my son thru the gym and explained the different workout areas. When Joe said he had the perfect trainer, my son was eager to get started. Nick reached out the very next day to get things rolling. The first day we met Nick, my son was excited, but nervous. Nick was very professional. He immediately listened and took interest in what my son wanted to achieve. Nick is very patient. He takes the time to explain each training session, demonstrating proper use of the equipment and technique, and works with you. At the end of each session the words "Great Job" keeps my son motivated and wanting to continue. It has been about 3 weeks since my son's fitness journey began and he looks forward to going to the gym. Not only has my son gotten stronger, his confidence and endurance has increased. THANK YOU NICK!!!
My son wanted to say: "From a few week's of going there with a personal trainer, it is awesome. My trainer listens to me to help me succeed. They have many machines, tools and items to help reach my goals. They also have a very kind staff. Thank you Nick, see you at the session. "
Thank you to all the staff for making us feel welcome and part of the Vaunt Fitness Family!

Been going to Vaunt on and off for a couple of years now (motivation can be tough). I recently had a great experience with one of the trainers, Nick, who helped me with my squat form. Very personable and willing to assist. Would recommend this gym to any of my friends!

The best gym!! I have tried MANY gyms, and I think Vaunt is exceptional. ALL of the coaches/staff are AMAZING; but Patsy, Steph, Lori, and Lindsey are exceptional! Vaunt literally sets the bar for fitness gyms, and I’ll never be able to find another gym like Vaunt. They are continually making improvements to the facility; adding equipment; hosting challenges and competitions; and most importantly, they listen to their members. Plus, the environment is so welcoming and friendly! It literally feels like a family! I can’t say enough good things about Vaunt!!

Joe W and staff created innovative ways to keep clients engaged during 2020 lockdown and Vaunt seems to have come back bigger and better than ever. Very impressed with responsiveness to questions on safely rehabbing after injury. Staff is also very diligent about carrying over health/safety protocols and looking out for all clients. Vaunt staff also are very active in the community which is refreshing to see from a local business.

You get what you pay for, and at Vaunt it’s great service in a high class facility. Vaunt gives you what other chain fitness centers do not. You are greeted when you arrive (always a pleasure when it’s Maddie in front) and you are given a personalized experience. The staff is helpful (personally I enjoy when Joe W assists me with my fitness questions). I have tried many gyms and I think Vaunt is exceptional. In a time with cleanliness is paramount, Vaunt goes above and beyond to make sure their members feel safe and cares for! During the pandemic the staff at Vaunt checked in personally with members to assure their needs were being met (and this was when we weren’t paying membership fees and the gym was closed). Overall great experience! Joe, Maddie and the Vaunt team does a great job!

A shout out to coach Lori for organizing our team challenges and creating some tough workouts. If you want nutrician and workouts tailored to you coach Stephanie is a great for customized coaching.

Been a member for awhile now and can say that this gym is community. The staff are friendly and helpful.
Lori and Lindsey are awesome trainers and have made my trainings a rewarding experience. Vaunt is more expensive than the franchise gyms but you get your money's worth. During covid I felt very comfortable coming to the gym and the staff worked hard at keeping the equipment and gym clean. The preventive measures put in place were comforting too during these difficult times. I love the enhancements that Vaunt has made and I am pretty sure there are more upgrades coming. I look forward coming to the "community" for a good workout. Keep it up Vaunt!

Vaunt has been great for me. Always clean, and management is always communicating transparently. Maddie at the front desk, who showed me around and sold me on becoming a member, was awesome and super knowledgeable about the gym. Vaunt is the way it is because of the way the staff interacts and keeps the place clean. Maddie is a huge part of that.

Great Neighborhood Gym! I’ve been to all the gyms in the area and nothing compares to Vaunt. Super clean, equipment is extremely well kept and it’s also kept up to date, and the people there (gym environment) is perfect. New upgrades to the bathrooms make the post gym experience feel like you are in a spa. From the gym manager (Joe) to the trainers and staff, they are all great people and will listen to any concerns. You get what you pay for at Vaunt and if you take the classes and listen to the trainers you will get the results that you want, guaranteed.

I always loved going to Vaunt classes, but then was devastated when COVID hit and shut everything down! Vaunt did a great job continuing workouts online, by still having challenges, and offering personalized training as well as equipment rentals! It’s def more than a gym and more like a family! I love ALL the staff but Maddie, Patsy, Lori, and Coach Steph are exceptional! I can always count on them!

Been a member for a few years paying for 2 accounts. $100 per month. I wanted to switch the person on the 2nd account because the person that was currently on it would no longer be able to go. Vaunt wanted $100 for the switch, saying it was a new member fee. I have been paying 2 accounts for 2 people and I paid the new member fees when they were opened. Why would I give them $100 just so they can take a picture of someone and add them in the system. The whole process takes 3 minutes tops. I could've not brought another person and reduced my accounts to 1, but because they tried to pull this now they have 0 accounts from me. Not handing over an extra $100 just because. I really liked the gym but they've been pushing the costs recently.

I canceled my membership end of July 2020. I was told that I had to physically come into the gym to cancel so that I could sign off on it. I did this. Since it was after the 15th of the month, I was told I would still need to pay for August 2020. I was okay with that and understood that it was their policy. September 1, 2020 comes along and my credit card is billed again $52.50. I called the manager "Maddie" multiple times throughout September and she kept telling me 5-7 days it would be removed. She took no responsibility for the charge and blamed it on their financial institution. It is now September 15 and I am furious because the charge has not been removed. I call Maddie back and she tells me it's probably MY bank that's taking so long. MY BANK!? After Multiple phone calls to Maddie the September 1st charged of $52.50 is removed September 18. October 1, 2020 comes along and I find that Vaunt took the money again from my credit card. This company is stealing from its customers and needs to be reported to the BBB. I called Maddie back Oct 1, 2020 and the young man on the phone told me she was late to work and wasn't in yet. I asked him if this was happening to everyone who attempts to cancel and he said "I can't speak of that." At this point I am exhausted. I called my bank and they were able to block Vaunt from stealing any more money in the future from my account and they will be disputing the Oct 1st 2020 charge for me. I refuse to go back and forth with Maddie again and her unprofessionalism. I can only imagine how much money this gym has stolen from people that canceled their membership and haven't bother to check their statements. If this happens to you please go through your bank and have them block the merchant as I did. I would not waste any time dealing with the manager.

Horrible experience, new to the area and looking into joining a new gym in the area, entered the facility with no greet, person in front of desk was on the phone and had no manners what so ever, took a seat until he was available, he hung up the phone and still no acknowledgement, was literally there for 15mins, I was ready to give this gym a try, but with this service, I will be taking my business else where.

I was a member of Vaunt Fitness for about a total of two years and utilized nearly every accommodation they have to offer. If price didn't matter in my review, Vaunt Fitness would easily be a 5 star gym. However, Vaunt is very pricey with any of their memberships. The extra costs and fees knock this gym down a whole two stars. You can get many, if not all the accommodations that Vaunt offers elsewhere for much cheaper.
Short version: Vaunt Fitness is a great gym, but a poor money investment.
