Synergy Kettlebell Training- ST. CHARLES
Reviews
The workouts are fast-paced and challenging, the coaches are very supportive. Bob Garon has designed a top notch program that will keep your body guessing. That's why I drive 45 minutes one way to get there, driving past other gyms knowing I've made the right choice in Synergy. I've lost weight and inches since starting with Synergy workouts. Lisa Garon was very helpful to me with a nutrition consult that challenged my thinking beyond food to include lifestyle and how to best fuel my body...well worth the money. I will be a long-term client.
Buyer Beware!!! While the training services are great, once they have you on a reoccurring debit withdrawal, good luck getting removed or simply a call back to get a refund. Two months after the free trial, they continue to charge my account and cannot seem to call me back to resolve. Perhaps this might get the owner to step up and work on the business end of the business?
Love the workouts and the free healthy eating classes that come with the membership. I have learned a lot about healthy eating along with amazing kettlebell classes. I have lost 50lbs since feb 2013 and I'm in the best shape of my life. Highly recommend! Very family orientated and everyone is really nice to be around. Synergy has had many special events that make the experience even more enjoyable!
I have been a member since March 2013 and I LOVE Synergy Kettlebell!!!! I have to be honest when I say I was scared to attend my first class. I like using the elliptical trainer or treadmill and don’t like change. I was worried for absolutely NO reason!! The staff and other members were friendly and welcoming. I never felt out of place for using lighter kettlebells to begin with or not being able to do as much as some of the others. Everyone works at their pace and ability. The staff always offer modified ways of doing the exercises (if there is a modification). They also walk around and make sure you are doing the moves correctly. In essence you have a personal trainer at each class encouraging you and making sure you are working out properly. I love that the classes are only 35-45 minutes and that I am working out my entire body. The atmosphere is high energy and honestly the time FLIES by! They offer a playroom for you to bring your children while you workout. During the school year it is not staffed but the room is right off the workout area and there is a large window so you can see in. There are plenty of toys and a TV with Netflix. I have a 2 ½ year old that I have no problem taking to the playroom. If you are looking to try something new, give Synergy a try! It is by far the best workout I have ever done ... and I look forward to going!!
I have been working out regularly since 2009. During this time I have tried the big chain gyms where I had to spend a fortune on personal training to feel as if I was more then just a number and where I was judged on what I wore and not the work I did. I have tried the '30 minute circuit training' gyms to which I never broke a sweat and was bored silly .. the same thing day after day. I have tried a smaller gym with lots of 'cool' equipment hoping to get a more personalized experience and the guarantee to never fall into a rut. I have also tried a Cross Fit box to which I loved but simply could not afford. It has been a long journey .... but I have finally found MY gym ... Synergy Kettlebell Training :) Here I don't have to spend a fortune to get personal training! Every class is taught by a trained coach who is interested in how I am performing. Every coach here challenges me yet is most encouraging on the days 'I am just not feeling it'. What I wear doesn't matter, what counts is what I do! My time here is I am never bored! The workouts are different everyday and grouped by themes! The intensity is insane yet easily adaptable to any level of physical fitness. Plus is very affordable! I feel as if I have the best of both world ... Affordable coaching in a place where people come to work hard and are dedicated to becoming the new skinny strong. Bob and Lisa truly care for their clients and are committed to nothing but the best for the members. In addition to wonderful classes they regularly offer seminars on nutrition, form and technique for their members. They also sponsor many team events which provides a healthy dose of competition and a large serving of smiles. Being part of the Synergy family is amazing! It's an all in one experience! Great family friendly atmosphere, awesome workouts with fantastic results - fast! Bob and Lisa are determined to help their clients become the new Skinny Strong through a personal training experience and nutrition consultation. Come try a class out ... I know you will enjoy it and walk out feeling the new Skinny Strong!!
