    I only write a review if i am profoundly impressed or completely underwhelmed. In this case, I only wish i could provide a double 5 star review. The team at Illekan took me from completely out of shape to being proud of my body and in great shape. Not only physically but mentally as well. Moreover, they assisted with my nutrition education and needs. I lost a great deal of weight (over 50 pounds and counting!!!) and added the right type of muscle -- all the while eating the best foods. I should also add that in the midst of my journey they accommodated knee issues and other medical conditions and made my recovery so much faster and easier. I can honestly say they have forever changed my life for the better. I found this gym the simple way...i googled it. Read a few reviews. Checked it out myself. Made a commitment. And some many many months later..... I can write this review and say Thank You Ilekan.

    Excellent personal training. Trainers who really care and go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals. Small and private gym that give big result and gives the feelings of more personal and family oriented within the gym. I train here about 4-5 times a week and find the consistent positive trainers, awesome music and in my fitness journey I have experience remarkable results. By far the best facility around. This new location is in mint condition from the staff, to the equipment, to the facility itself. From the ownership, to management, to the trainers, by far the nicest and most knowledgeable staff in the business today. Highly recommended!

    Amazing gym with great coaches and a complimentary bootcamp on Saturday!!! I have lost weight and gained confidence! The networking events are fun too. Prices vary but they are decent if you are looking for an intense but personable experience. This is not just a gym this is a life changer.

    This is a great athletic club, everyone is kind and professional. It's very clean, they motivate you to want to do better and to keep trying. It's also an extra bonus that everyone looks very attractive and fit! Tunde is one of the trainers and he is amazing, he seems to be very passionate about his line of work and he genuinely cares about his clients. Im always looking forward to a good work out when I come here. Also not to mention they offer a FREE boot camp every Saturday open to the public. I think that's a tremendous offer to give back to the community. Keep it up guys!!!

    Excellent place to care for the complete package: mind, body and soul. Gym is always clean, all new equipment and well maintained. Small yet niche family centric environment with good energy! Training services are top notch customized & personalized for your individual fitness needs.

    First off the name ILEKAN meaning ONE HOUSE is exactly how I feel whenever I’m there. This small private gym feels like family whether I’m physically there or not. The owners to the trainers and the people I’ve encountered along the way has greeted me with uplifting spirits and positive energy in a family/homie environment. The atmosphere is inviting and I never feel like I’m just at a gym. You receive encouragement, support and accountability whether you’re having a training session or just stopping by for a quick workout. The vibes are insane and the music is just insane; it’s truly a vibe. Saturday bootcamps are free for the public and it’s a great way to get a feel for the gym and what they offer AND a great workout before weekend festivities!!! ILEKAN is definitely a place to check out! Thank me later 😉

    I love this independent gym and my trainer! Everyone knows your name and my trainer calls me out when I'm doubting myself and knows I'm capable of doing more and pushing harder. I have met alot of wonderful people here and we all motivate each other to be better.

  • 5/5 Adrianna J. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been at Ilekan for 3 months now and will be there for much longer. This is a GREAT place to train. Everything is brand new and clean. The energy, the vibe, the love , the people and last but not least the training are all AMAZING! You never feel out of place here and the trainers really pour into you. Come check it out, you will not be disappointed! Hope to meet you soon!

    Ilekan is more of a community than a gym. The community has successfully transformed fitness from a series of boring workout sessions to a fun physical event. Being the first Nigerian gym in Houston, Ilekan has incorporated songs from around the world including afrobeats which is food for the body and soul. Working out there with their trainers has been life-changing. One House, Ilekan!!

    I absolutely love this gym. The staff (Prince and Rogel) is extremely kind, caring and helpful. Prince is always motivating and shows that he cares about his client’s wellbeing. If you’re looking to improve your health, I highly recommend this gym.

    I can’t rave enough about the ambience and the experience with everyone at the gym! They make you feel at home and above all else, they cater to not just your body but your mind too! Working with this team is a life changing experience so, don’t wait - reach out to them to enroll for personal training, classes, etc. - you won’t regret it!

    There is no place on earth like Ilekan Athletic Club! I am honored to be apart of such an amazing community of individuals working towards the betterment of not only their bodies but minds and spirit as well. It is truly the “Kingdom of [total & complete] Transformation.” On my first day there I was met with warm smiles and an inviting & inclusive atmosphere. Everyone was so kind & eager to help. The trainers are very knowledgeable and enjoyable to work with. Great leaders to have along side this journey of transformation as they are truly invested in the development of your best self! The facility is always very clean and filled with motivation, positivity & good vibes. 10/10 recommend to everyone in the Houston area –any age, any size, any background, any fitness level!

😠 This place is a disgrace. The two lat pull-down cables have been broken for over three weeks and they look at me like I’m crazy for thinking they should be repaired. Most of the other equipment is either broken or missing. Even at $15 per month, it’s too much.

😠 The majority (not all) of front desk clerks are rude. The equipment is embarrassingly unkept. Many leverage machines don't have the pins to secure the weights. The bench presses usually don't have the weight bars making them useless. Picture posted below is a reflection of a normal day, three benche...
