Personal Training

No two people are alike and neither are our personal trainers.

When you sign up with a CAC personal trainer, you’re not only getting an inclusive roadmap to achieve your specific fitness goals, you’re getting a one-on-one advocate who’s passionate about health and fitness.

Engaging in a holistic approach, your personal trainer starts by assessing where you are and where you want to be—whether you want to increase your lean muscle mass, improve core strength, increase flexibility, train for a 10K, or simply improve your free weight and cardio know-how. Personal training is guaranteed to get you results quickly, efficiently and safely while keeping you committed and motivated.

Specialties
Our team of personal trainers maintain the highest standards of expertise and excellence. And each trainer has specialties for every need, from prenatal and postnatal to those with limited functionality and senior clients.

Elite
Elite trainers have expanded their skills by specializing in various disciplines, including injury prevention, flexibility training and pre-post natal, to name a few. They are skilled problem solvers who can confidently enhance strength, challenge balance and condition the body.

Specialist
Specialist trainers have chosen a specific focus. Their advanced skills include Marathon training, triathlon coaching, and training for special populations such as heart transplant patients and cancer survivors. These trainers will also act a bridge between physical therapy to fully rehabilitate any injury.

Triathlon Club

Cross-training as a triathlete is a vigorous way to strengthen all the muscle groups in your body. Running helps develop lean muscles; swimming helps sculpt the upper body and cycling helps tone the lower body.

CAC’s Triathlon Club is for triathletes of all levels and meets up to six days a week. In addition, the CAC Triathlon Club holds informational clinics, social events and group travel options for various races. As you train with our USA Triathlon certified coaches, you’ll build lasting relationships with group members.

Clip in and climb

Designed with both beginners and experts in mind, the CAC climbing walls feature a climbing surface that more closely resembles natural rock than anything on the market today.

It’s a great way to get out of your regular workout routine and into a robust social environment. And our facilities come equipped with an ever-changing assortment of routes and structures: crack climbing, a horizontal roof, dihedrals, arêtes, slab and endurance routes. In addition to this, Lincoln Park offers a sustained 30-degree overhang, Lakeview features a climbing wall and a bouldering cave and Evanston is home to two climbing walls, a bouldering cave and 46-foot high endurance routes. If you’re looking to shake up up your workout and get your adrenaline running, this is a great way to help improve your balance, coordination and flexibility while refining your arm, back and core strength.
