User Reviews of Xsport Fitness

Yelp.com Review - by C H.

4.0 of 5 stars. The only time this gym gets crowded is during the winter months at peak hours. During the spring, summer, and fall there are plenty of machines open. The classes are great and the instructors are all…

Yelp.com Review - by natalie v.

3.0 of 5 stars. Ok, so I can't say that I LOVE Xsport because I don't LOVE gyms in general. However, it is open 24 hours a day. The locations that I have gone to (Logan Square and Lakeview) do have free parking.…

2.0 of 5 stars. This place annoys me. I try to go during non peak hours, but it's still pretty crowded. Lots of "good" looking people, guys who are douche bags, girls who wear make-up to the gym. It is a gym, I know…

Yelp.com Review - by Lily H.

1.0 of 5 stars. When I first joined this gym, I loved it, but I feel like it has changed in the last year. After being a part of the chaos, I've decided it has got to be one of the most crowded and ridiculous gyms…

2.0 of 5 stars. I visit this Xsport and one in Niles. The cardio equipment here is better than Niles, but the strength equipment, particularly the free motion stuff is lacking. Cardio machines all have tv screens on…

Yelp.com Review - by Mike E.

3.0 of 5 stars. They have an unadvertised 3 month pre pay deal. I signed up for that so i could continue running through the winter. Much has been said about their salespeople and attitude. Pretty poor I agree.
