    This is a really great gym with talented and thoughtful trainers. I've been going here for over 14 months (well, the last 9 months have been "virtual") and it's been positively life-changing. Annalise has helped craft a workout program for me that's not only challenging, but the 1st exercise program I've ever had that I actually look forward to. Oh, and the facility is absolutely top-notch, even in The Before Times, it's far and away the cleanest gym I've ever been in (and the bathroom is practically a mini-spa!). Highly recommend checking them out.

    After about 20 years of working out on my own and thinking I knew what I was doing, my good friend introduced me to Wattage. It didn't take long to realize that what I had been doing pre-Wattage was not only wrong and ineffective but was also causing injuries. Aaron totally revamped my workout routine. After years of running with a brace, I'm now running brace-free and have no more nagging injuries. ALL the trainers at Wattage are incredibly knowledgeable and will push you beyond where you thought you could go. The best part is that all of this happens in a super cool gym with a lot of laughter, great music and an overall feel good vibe. I'm exhausted when I leave but going to Wattage is always the best part of my week!

    I have trained with Aaron, Brittany, and Annalise. My experience with each trainer has been exceptional. Communication and scheduling is very easy. The sessions are tailored to your goals and each trainer has been highly experienced and very technical. Highly recommend if you are looking for a place where you will get the results you want!

    My husband and I love Wattage, and in particular Kane, our trainer. We both workout with Kane 2x/week and have been impressed by how professional and nice he is, along with everyone at Wattage. We truly look forward to our sessions. The facility is clean, very strict with covid-related restrictions (which makes us feel very safe), and we have had a great experience so far! We recommend Kane and Wattage to all of our friends and to anyone contemplating signing up with them.

    Wattage takes personal training to the next level. They really care about their clients! The space is kept clean and there is access to significantly more equipment than most luxury Chicago gyms. I can’t recommend enough!

  • 5/5 Lindsay S. 10 years ago on Google • 6 reviews
    Wattage is an incredibly sophisticated full functional training gym while feeling as intimate as if it's your own home. The space at Wattage is tailored to both adventurous workouts and recovery strategies, integrating everything from combine type drills & circuit training to cardio options on the best equipment in market. From a client perspective, Aaron's focus, knowledge, dedication, and individualized training has been a positive influence for me physically and mentally for the past 6 years. He is incredibly creative in designing workouts specifically for my strengths and weaknesses while over time, still remaining challenging and fulfilling... with positive perspective, it's often fun! I haven't been more excited about the opening of Wattage, or recommend highly enough Aaron Manheimer and his business partner, Mark Roberts, for personal training, custom group circuit classes, or the gym itself as a place to accomplish fitness goals.

    Wattage is very clean and always has been. With the virus, Arron has changed everything to make the gym as germ free as possible. Wattage has excellent trainers and is carefully booked to make everyone feel comfortable during their personal work out. It is well equipped but thankfully not with machines. It is the best, no matter ones age.

  • 5/5 Jeremy N. 10 years ago on Google • 5 reviews
    As a former international athlete, I have seen many gyms, from small studios to major corporate chains. This place is far and away the best facility I have had the opportunity to work out at. From professional and knowledgeable trainers to high caliber equipment, Wattage is top notch. I love coming in here 5-6 times a week to stay fit! I would recommend it to anyone, beginner, expert, post injury, pre race, sport specific. I forgot to mention how great the showers are! How many gyms have heated tiled floors in the bathroom?

  • 5/5 Chrystalle R. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome training center! They have everything I love, from a turf, sleds, land mines, barbell racks, etc. Can’t wait to try it out!

    Aaron and team have done a superb job of keeping Wattage super clean during Covid. Not an easy job. Kudos...

    Alex! Alex! Alex! And mark! Both awesome trainers who provide quality customer service as well as motivation and support. Their friendliness and knowledge keeps me coming back

    Great experience at Wattage. True professionals - clean, organized, a world class gym.

  • 5/5 Jessica T. 8 years ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Wattage is a great personal training gym! All of the trainers at Wattage are extremely knowledgeable and really care about your progress. I began training with them after my knee surgery. I feel without going to Wattage my knee problems never would have gotten better. I feel so much more comfortable with my daily activities and have gotten a lot stronger throughout the years. If you are looking for a small focused gym I would recommend Wattage- I love going there because I always feel comfortable and never self-conscious. Many other gym are over crowded- Wattage is extremely clean and organized and has a lot of equipment you won't see at other gyms. Located in a really convenient location with lots of parking. Always a plus in the city.

    Wattage is the best gym I’ve found in Chicago. I’ve worked with multiple trainers on post-injury strength building rehab exercises. Annalise is awesome- can adjust to any ability level while also pushing you to do your best! She also knows her way around a workout playlist. This gym can get the biggest muscle-y types to reach their goals but is just as welcoming to someone who has huge restrictions on activity. In the pandemic, Maria and Aaron have made sure that the space is extremely safe with strict mask protocols, limited clients at a time, and virtual training. When there was even the suspicion that one person who entered the building could have had covid, they closed early and hired a crew to fumigate the whole place with a sanitizer. Can’t recommend it enough!!

    You'll get the most customized and innovative workout at Wattage and with Aaron. His dedication to form and his attention to performance make each session effective, safe, and fun! More importantly, with each session he learns more about what works best for you individually and uses that knowledge to tailor workouts specifically for your strengths and weaknesses. Aaron's attention to detail helps make each workout some of the best, and hardest, I have ever had! Plus, he has this way about him that challenges you without making you feel forced. I look forward to each workout I have at Wattage!

🫤 Let me start by saying this, ambiance - 10/10. Everything else- I was HIGHLY disappointed by. Maybe it’s that I have had very similar experiences with even more amenities in Vegas at half the cost, but everything about this place was not worth the money. First of all- we were greeted by someone who...

👍👍 My massage by Agnes was heavenly. I had a lot of knots & she was able to get them all out. I left feeling relaxed and pampered. Agnes is a very talented therapist.
