When I signed up for classes at LKB AV, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that unlike other gyms I’ve been to, ILKB is far less clique-y, frat-bro-y, and easily the most enthusiastic and supportive gym I’ve attended. I love everything about this place from the incredible trainers who not only make sure to learn the names of all the members, but make a point of interacting with each and every one of us at every single class, pay attention to our individual abilities, and push us to do better for ourselves, to the other members who support each other unconditionally. I’m not going to lie, it was hard at the beginning. The 15 minutes of core at the start of each class used to be the stuff my nightmares were made of. I hadn't done a pushup in years, let alone burpees or jumping lunges. After regularly attending classes for about 2 months now, I've noticed that my strength and endurance have improved more than I could have ever imagined. I can even make it through the “15 minutes of hell” without complaining too terribly much now! ILKB and the wonderful people that are a part of it have truly changed my life for the better.
