Endeavor Health Fitness & Wellness Center – Galter Life Center - Chicago (IL)

2 /5 Gustav Paulet: Joined this gym a week ago and already having a bad experience. This review is being made on Tuesday, November 4 at 9:29PM. I noticed the dark skinned heavy set woman at the front desk reception area on the left side as soon as you enter the gymnasium was saying goodbye and hi to every white member but ignored me when I said hi and when I said goodbye. She lacks professionalism. Yet the person in front of me got a goodbye and the person behind me also got a goodbye. I noticed everyone else got a goodbye or have a good one except me and what a coincidence that I was only Latino. Seems bizarre for her to be racist. Didn’t pay $75 joining fee and a month in advance to be treated differently. I am always polite and expect the same. Other than the rude woman at the front desk from tonight (Tuesday, November 4th) the gym is okay. The pool is not deep enough and the free weights could use more benches (only has one flare bench). The treadmills are decent but there are a few that skip. Hours could also be better on the weekends. Atleast till 9:30 everyday would be solid. Only reason I joined is because I live three blocks from here and the gym is not crowded like LA Fitness. Not bad but definitely not great

1 /5 Malina Jäger: Dr. Jane was a great swim coach I would’ve stayed with the adult swim if it was just her she seemed patient and genuinely cared. Linda Mueller however was passive aggressive and very much impatient. She didn’t care to make students comfortable to learn. She didn’t seem to understand why I wasn’t getting instruction as fast as the other students and just kept hounding me with corrections instead of giving me some space to think about it. If that’s normal or not, I didn’t care and didn’t want to subject myself to that sort of learning environment. Might work for other adults in galter but certainly didn’t work with me.

3 /5 Molly G: The people are friendly and the fitness floor is clean; however, the West pool is very cloudy. I keep thinking they need to adjust the chemicals . Perhaps, they need to enforce the “shower before swimming” rule so that people don’t bring their body oils and perfumes mixing into the pool.

5 /5 Summer Baez: The only certified medical fitness center in Chicago, a little bit out of the way now that I live in Lincoln Park this club is amazing if you have time to go everyday -I do now. Huge, considering that it has no tennis court) it has top notch equipments, two pools, hotubs with strong jets, not just bubbles that just vaporized the chemicals in the pools that you breath. I dont do classes. The regular individual membership accessible to anybody is very competitive (no tennis, no picket ball..) and with a doctors recommendation you may just pay as low as $30 only, limited to two years. The facility is superb, huge, and you dont feel stuck at all with seniors with medical conditions walking in their shoes in the swimming pools like at CAC.

3 /5 Erin Phillips: I like this place but feel extremely conflicted about it as well. The website / booking system is archaic, wonky, and error-prone. The fact that I have to call to book a massage but even then they can’t guarantee the time I’m booking is open, is quite frankly ridiculous. You do need to fix the hot water, the sewer flies, and you really really need to get a new booking system. I am very close to giving up on this place which is unfortunate since they do have great amenities too.
