I've never had a solid gym community before, so joining SLSC has been a game changer! I'm used to lifting by myself; never considered trying Olympic Weightlifting until I walked in for my consultation but I'm almost finished month 2 and loving it! The coaches and lifting crew are all super supportive. The lifts can be really intimidating, s/o Coach Ryan, Stephanie, and Alvaro for giving me great pointers and the confidence to go heavier. If you’ve never done Olympic Weightlifting before, I can sincerely vouch for SLSC as a great place to learn.

SLSC is hands down the top CrossFit gym in Chicago — incredible coaches, a welcoming community, and a strong emphasis on proper technique. The bonus weightlifting sessions are a great addition too. I had an amazing experience over the past year and will definitely drop in whenever I’m back in town. Big shoutout to the 6:30 crew — I’ll miss you all!

Killer gym. Everything you need if you’re in the area and want a good CrossFit WOD or just some free weights. I dropped in on a Saturday morning when visiting the city and I’m glad I did. Bonus that coach Jess is from the Central Valley 🤌🏼

Dropped into South Loop Strength & Conditioning for a CrossFit class—$25 well spent. Coaches were super welcoming and knew their stuff. The workout was tough but doable, and the vibe was all about community, not ego. Only downside? The space gets a bit tight during peak hours. But if you're in the South Loop and want a solid sweat session with good people, this spot's a winner.
