Glencoe Personal Trainers Who Come to You

More than nine in ten homes here are detached single-family houses, about 35 percent were built before 1940, and roughly two-thirds have four or more bedrooms. For in-home training, that means options: a spare room, a lower level, a garage or the yard on a mild morning. Our trainers bring the equipment the program needs, so there is no home gym to build before you begin. Every session is insured, and if your week changes, rescheduling takes only 24 hours' notice.

Glencoe Beach sits at the foot of the bluff below the Halfway House, and the park district posts its seasonal hours and any construction closures online. Next door, Lakefront Park on Longwood Avenue has a walking path, lake-view benches and three tennis courts, with free parking on Longwood, Hazel and Park avenues. Between the park and the beach, there is room for outdoor sessions most of the year.

The Green Bay Trail runs beside the Metra Union Pacific North tracks, and the village has a project to turn the on-street bike route between Hazel Avenue and South Boulevard into a protected off-street trail. The Forest Preserves of Cook County's North Branch Trail System ends at the 385-acre Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe, and its Forest Way Grove access on Forest Way Drive, south of Dundee Road, opens onto the Skokie Lagoons. Trainers can reach you by Metra at 724 Green Bay Road or by Pace Route 213, which links Northbrook Court with Evanston's Davis Street station.
