Bears Fit Membership Benefits
In partnership with the Chicago Bears, we’ve created a facility worthy of the gridiron’s finest.
ENERGY AND EXCELLENCE
Train Like a Bear
Let’s be honest: most gyms feel the same. Rows of machines, fluorescent lights and zero guidance.
Bears Fit is different. We offer a training environment that matches the energy and excellence of the Chicago Bears. If you are looking for a gym where you have actual space to train and recovery options, you have found your match.
The "New Member" Welcome Package
We don’t just hand you a key card and wish you luck. We set you up to win from Day 1. Every new membership includes a powerful kickstarter kit:
- 2 Free Personal Training Assessments: Learn proper form, meet the training team and assess the most efficient path to your goals
- Full Body Scan: Get a clear picture of your muscle mass and body composition.

FITNESS FOR ALL
Family & Teen Memberships
Fitness is better when the whole squad is involved. We offer Couple and Family Memberships so you can train together.
Teen Members: Want to add a teenager to your plan? We just need a parent or guardian’s consent. Our team will handle the paperwork to ensure your teen learns to train safely.
EXPERT SUPPORT
Pro Trainers
The biggest reason people quit the gym is confusion. They walk in, look around and don’t know what to do next. That is why your two free training assessments are so critical. Your trainer will evaluate your movement, explain the equipment and help you build a routine that sticks.
- Need to Adjust? Our staff is always at the front desk to help with account updates or schedule changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Should I Look for When Searching for the Best Gym Facilities?
Look for specific proof points like equipment count, square footage, dedicated training zones, and recovery options. At Bears Fit, our 45,000 sq ft facility in Vernon Hills delivers all of that under one roof.
Are Specialized Training Facilities Better for Beginners?
Why Is a Recovery Lounge an Essential Feature in Modern Gym Facilities?
Recovery is the other half of training. Without it, progress stalls and injury risk increases. Our 2,500 sq ft recovery lounge at Bears Fit includes Normatec, HydroMassage and Hyperice services available to every member.
How Do I Know if a Gym's Equipment Meets Professional Standards?
Look for specific equipment counts and named training zones rather than vague claims. Our Bears Fit training area includes 70+ cardio machines, five half racks and over 5,000 sq ft of free weights.
What Amenities Should I Expect in a Premium Fitness Center?
A premium fitness center should offer dedicated studios, recovery tools, quality locker rooms and on-site nutrition beyond just equipment. Bears Fit delivers all of this plus the Chicago Bears’ only official pro shop outside Soldier Field.
