In-Home Personal Training in Wicker Park

The 606 runs along the north edge of the neighborhood as a trail above the street built for running, biking and strolling, and it suits steady runs, walk-jog intervals and tempo work. For strength, the park on Damen that gives Wicker Park its name has an athletic field and basketball courts, with room for sprints, carries and bodyweight circuits. Churchill Field Park on the Bucktown side is an easy way up to the trail. In the warm months, sessions can move outside, and they come back indoors when the weather turns.

Training is only part of feeling good. We also send licensed massage therapists to your home, so you can recover in your own living room after a heavy week of training or a long run on the trail. If tight hips, a stiff back or desk posture bother you most, mobility and posture is one of the goals we match trainers for, and your trainer can build more of that work into each session. Ask about both on your free consultation, and we'll help you plan how they fit together.

Homes here range from restored Victorian houses in brick and stone to two- and three-flats and other small multi-unit buildings. If your house has a basement or a spare room, it can take a bench and heavier work over time, and a solid staircase is good for step-ups. In a flat, a living-room rug is enough, and if neighbors live below, your trainer can keep the session low-impact. Wherever you live, your trainer brings bands, dumbbells and anything else the program calls for, and every session is insured.
