Looks awesome. I train at a place that like (only smaller) and after switching I can never go back to lifting at a public / mainstream gym.

visited there 2 weeks ago and i'm a fan of the set up and a HUGE fan of the owner. Greg and Sharon Crook are really some of the greatest people you could hope to meet. humble, sincere and always willing to help. really hope this place blows up in members quick, they deserve it.

It really is a great facility and he is supportive of all training styles - Crossfit, Powerlifting, Strongman, etc.

Looks a lot like a CrossFit box... Am I correct? And yes, I love CF, so no, that is not a negative thing.

Yes, it is Crossfit Monroe. He set up the front of the gym to be a Crossfit gym but then put Olympic Lifting and Powerlifting platforms in the back along with some additional equipment (dumbbells, strongman equipment, etc.) to appeal to a greater population.

cool gym it looks nice in its stuffs and size and i would like to ask what is the monthly fees you are charging for workouts here

I do not know the monthly rate but the groupon rate allows you to train there for $3-4/session for 10 or 20 sessions, which is very reasonable.

Looks awesome. Anyone familiar with any gyms like this in the chicago-land area?

Nice. I like the fact that most cross fit gyms are in order and clean. Not like our gym LOL

Crossfit Construct (where I train) has huge tires, yolks, atlas stones, reverse hyper, axle bars, etc. Of course it is mostly centered around crossfit, but as you can see they have plenty of strongman/power lifting type equipment. The owner is a really cool guy as well.

Interesting. What part of Chicago? Im possibly interested in finding a location to train for football during this upcoming summer. (With the limitation of summer camp here.)
