The Strength Revolution Gym, owned by brothers Paul and Dan D’Arco is a Personal Training and Open Gym facility located in Shorewood, Illinois in the Jewel Osco shopping plaza. They and their team specifically program work-outs for their clients that are designed for their unique goals while focusing on injury prevention. The Strength Revolution does not host group classes. I used to love group classes, but the more and more I work with my Trainer, Paul, the more I discover how group classes were more of a hindrance than an asset. They are fine as an addition to your workout program, but I learned that you cannot focus your entire fitness plan on group classes alone. Many gyms that have group programs, and their workouts are centered towards the general population, so there’s no real progression. Also, many of those facilities allow so many participants in their classes that the instructor would not be able to address individuals experiencing issues or challenges with any of the specific movements, or the workout as a whole. So many people with difficulties get lost in the process leaving a lot of room for injuries to occur. The Strength Revolution has worked with me from Day 1. My trainer took the time to learn my personal fitness goals and created an individual based program just for me. He works with me to monitor my progress while teaching me how to keep advancing as I continue to move forward or if my fitness goals change. Paul also is very knowledgeable on injury prevention. Having a history of shoulder problems and a hip impingement, he has taught me warmup exercises and stretches to help in my heavy movements like squats, deadlifts and presses be more effective and without any discomfort or pain. He passes this knowledge onto his team as well so they can take that information and use it to help their clients. The whole team at The Strength Revolution in Shorewood are absolutely amazing. They are extremely knowledgeable about fitness and fitness programming all while helping clients like me avoid injury during training. I highly recommend Strengthen Revolution for anyone looking to progress in their fitness training, whether you’re a beginner or been working out for decades. Less

Awesome training, have been injury free for almost two years now and have never been stronger and more prepared for college athletics.

Have you ever wanted to feel like you’re #1? Check out the trainers at this gym because that’s how they make you feel. I am not just a number through the door, it’s fun and friendly.

Have you ever wanted to feel like you’re #1? Check out the trainers at this gym because that’s how they make you feel. I am not just a number through the door, it’s fun and friendly. I my first goals were to be able to get off the floor and improve my posture. I have met those goals and even lost some weight. It’s the first time I actually go to the gym rather than just pay for a gym. My husband has seen my results and joined “The Strength Revolution” to reach his own goals. If you want to feel better, get better or just keep the strength you have this is a perfect gym for you to check out. I signed up for 6 sessions and have stayed for almost 4 years. When I feel good, I look good and can function at my BEST. Thank you Paul, Dan and Andrea Less

We came upon The Strength Revolution while doing a Google search for a gym as close as possible to our home. We are so grateful for the community we have found here. Andrea, our personal trainer, has taught us so much in our 10 sessions we signed up for in January. My husband has back issues and she has taught him what to do for his back when he pulls it out and how to strengthen it to avoid pulling it out. She has helped me strengthen the muscles I needed for my weak knees, along with my core, legs, and upper arm strength. We are looking forward to continuing with her. She teaches us something new every week! Thank you Andrea! Less

Great place to workout. Coach Andrea will indentify weaknesses and gives exercises to make a better you! I learn something new every time I meet with her.

I came to The Strength Revolution 5 months ago physically broken. At least that's how my body felt after giving birth to my daughter in March. I was in so much pain that I couldn't even get in and out of my car without struggling! I couldn't lift my arms! I couldn't get down and up from the floor without help. My back hurt, my knees hurt, my feet hurt, my neck hurt, my hips hurt... I just felt horrible. And then I met Andrea!! She is an angel. She tested me and pinpointed areas that were weak that needed strengthening for my overall body function and we started there! All simple, easy, and effective exercises that helped improve my overall mobility. In such a short period of time with her, I feel like a whole new person! I HIGHLY recommend The Strength Revolution! This isn't your normal gym...these are personal trainers that have the knowledge to strengthen those painful problem areas! Do not hesitate! Call them now! Less

I have been training with Paul for a few weeks now after recommendations from my brother. I have been to trainers in the past with ok results. In the few weeks with Paul it is obvious he has the knowledge and understanding of the body and fitness to more of a detailed level. His initial evaluation led to a program to work on my weak areas as well as overall fitness. A few changes with my form has already alleviated some issues I have had for quite sometime. His understanding of science I would call it, is very informative and helps understand the why of things. His approach to training focuses on the correct position and form from mobility to exercises. It’s way more than a program of exercises to follow, he coaches you to get the most out of yourself. I had a few areas of pain that sometimes limits me and he had immediate thoughts on corrective actions. And I was actually impressed of the almost immediate results. I💯 recommend him and his facility to get to your goals or free yourself of any pain you may have. I have results already with the time so far and expect even more. Less

It took me a long time to find a gym that I felt comfortable in. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, willing to answer questions and help when needed. Andrea has been working one on one with me and I have learned so much from her. She has taught me so much in the 8 weeks that I’ve been there. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking to improve their lifestyle.

This place has helped me feel comfortable working out and ensuring I do not hurt myself. My job creates tons of issues and pain for my body and when I am with the trainers I feel better! They are amazing people and amazing trainers. You can tell they know what they are doing and they care about their clients!

Could not recommend more highly! Andrea has done an excellent job tailoring a plan for my specific needs (back issues) and goals. I feel stronger after every session. She really listens and watches my form to always ensure I am doing everything correctly. She pushes me when she knows I can do more and recognizes when I hit my limits. So happy I found them.

This is the place with the most knowledgeable instructors. They not only know how to give you a workout fit for your needs but also if you have have an injury, in pain or need work on certain muscles this is the place. Strength Revolution is the way of the future so you can stay strong and mobile throughout your life.

Been working with Dan, he is super knowledgeable. After a handful of sessions he had pinpointed what had been causing me chronic pain. The workouts are individualized and tailored to your goals. Always greeted with a “Hi team!” Definitely recommend going and see how your life improves.

If I could give 10 stars, that is what Rise Above Fitness deserves! We’ve been at Rise Above Fitness training with Paul for about a year now.

If I could give 10 stars, that is what Rise Above Fitness deserves! We’ve been at Rise Above Fitness training with Paul for about a year now. When we started, my daughter was “injured“ and an orthopedic had determined that she had a torn ligament. Another specialist told us that she had a “leg length difference”. Both of which were false, but she missed an entire season of cross country due to the misdiagnosis. After seeing Paul for one session, my daughter was out of pain. He quickly identified the weak muscles that caused the issue to begin with. He’s been working with her to improve muscle strength and change her running form so that future injuries don’t occur. He’s quite literally a wizard! The knowledge he has about the muscles in the body is amazing! He teaches us something new every week. He goes out of his way to help and checks in on us between sessions. In a way, he’s also become part of our family! I couldn’t recommend him more! Less

Paul has done wonders for me! I missed an entire season of Cross country due to pain. But once I started seeing Paul I’ve been able to both compete and learn new ways to stay out of pain. He is literally amazing!

Was new to the area and wanted to get back to the gym. Rise Above has been great and only wish I would have reached out sooner. One on one training has been personalized and could not have asked for a better experience. The trainer, Josh, is knowledgable and fun to work with. He brings his personality to the sessions and definitely wants to see you succeed. Highly recommend.

I love to workout here. My personal training sessions are always put together based off my needs/goals. Which I love. If you’re looking for great trainers that pride themselves in putting u first, look no more this is it!

I highly recommend RiseAbove to anyone looking for a personalized fitness program with trainers who individualize exercises to your specific goals. I am on my way to accomplishing my goals, but have found a friendly place where I feel like I belong!!

The personal trainers are AMAZING! I would highly recommend trying Rise Above Fitness for all your fitness needs!

Paul and Dan are two of the most invested personal trainers I have ever worked with. They are invested in their clients and their community. They are not just about getting you to your desired results, but about getting the results you want in the safest way possible and that will last long after your time with them. Paul and Dan know their stuff. And if they get thrown a curve ball on something they don't know... they will learn it so they can teach it to their clients. I have worked with many personal trainers in the last 15+ years. A lot of them, all they do is push, push, push their clients without consideration of what negative effects it is doing to their body. From knee, hip and shoulder movements that will eventually cause bigger issues later. These guys know that fitness is more than what Instagram and Tik Tok show us. They teach their clients the aspects of fitness that the big box gyms do not even approach. Functional fitness! Fitness that helps with day-to-day activities or helps us be active without pain. I highly recommend Rise Above if you are looking to be challenged in your current fitness routine or looking to improve your daily functionality of life. These guys are legit. Less

Best results I’ve ever had, and I wasn’t in pain. Dan and Paul are really knowledgable.

My experience at Rise Above Fitness in Shorewood has been great!!! I have an amazing trainer. After each session I feel more confident about myself.

But Pauly D and Dan have always been great at customizing our workouts, making sure we not only both get what we need from our workouts but also the workouts are done safely, don,t want any injuries! There are many workout options that can certainly fit any need; 1 on 1 training, Saturday group class, or just working out on your own using what you've learned from Pauly D or Dan and/or from their portal that has 100s of recorded programs to follow. And all these workouts are done in a comfortable, no judgement, friendly space! Less

The best place to work out. They truly care about you as a person. They ask about your fitness goals and they help you achieve them. I don't ever feel uncomfortable when I walk through the dooors.

3 years ago I made the best decision I possibly could for my health when I joined Rise Above! When I joined I was plagued by severe headaches that I would get every time I finished a workout. I had come from an environment that believed the harder & faster you worked out, the better. Guess what? Rise Above knows that not everyone is built for the same types of workouts, and helps you find the program that works best for you. Whether it’s headaches like mine, mobility issues, back pain, shoulder pain, etc., they will help you find the cause and work with you to not only fix it, but educate you so that you can avoid injury in the future. If you want to learn how to live a healthier lifestyle, and don’t know where to start, Rise Above will teach you. Seriously…I can’t say enough positive things about Rise Above. They’ve given me the tools I need to be healthier, stronger, and more confident, and hopefully, I’ll be able to take what I’ve learned from them and execute it for years to come. Less

The coaches and staff are so positive and it pushes you to do more each time! They always have fun events to look forward to. Bring a friend and it becomes more like play time than a workout!

The staff and Coaches are motivational and they really do care that your safe and doing everything correctly. Could get this time of motivation or love from any other gym

So far everything is great ! We are seeing results and our coach is very knowledgeable and makes sure all our questions are answered and we understand everything. He focuses on what we need to hear as opposed to what we want to hear which motivates us to challenge ourselves. Exactly what we needed!

I have been an active person on a daily basis, so not moving and being busy is not an option for me. I started being really serious about the exercise during a COVID-19 quarantine because I finally had a lot of extra time. Every day since then, I have continued to be determined and dedicated to the exercise. It is very important for me to be healthy and active while I change my physical appearance. It takes a great deal of work, but it's worth it. For the most part, I have been training well at home using available sources and equipment. I learned about micros, diets, Cal and all those “funny”things. It paid off, but then I got to the point of Plato and everything I tried didn't work for my betterment. That's why I decided to bring up a pro coach. Some say you can handle yourself. To tell the truth, we all need guidance and insight from someone who understands the entire concept. I saw a post about Rise Above Fitness in Shorewood, IL and decided right away to give a try. With such excitement, I immediately sent a message to the business and received a response immediately. They asked me a few questions and scheduled a free consultation so that they could learn about me and my goals. The next day, I went to speak to the representative, and I was very happy because she listened to what I had to say. After a long conversation, she paired me up with a coach who, in her opinion, would be the best match for me. I have Paul, who is also the founder and owner of the venue. Paul, my coach is listening and giving me directions. I feel good knowing I can tell him what I'm looking for, and he's telling me the truth honestly. No sugar coating, only honest responses. I think that regardless of how advanced your fitness level is, everyone needs additional expertise and advice. Rise Above Fitness is the perfect place to start your fitness program. Regardless of whether you progress level or just want to start and you do not know how to just give them a try and you will certainly not be disappointed. I encourage you today to make a change, to do something for yourself that will benefit you for a lifetime! Make an appointment at Rise Above Fitness, it won't cost you a cent, get the information you need and plan to suit your specific needs. Breathe, live shine and Rise Above! Less

The instructors back the workouts with knowledge and share that knowledge freely. The enthusiasm and camaraderie from the instructors and fellow members is amazing. A must see and try for yourself...you won't be disappointed.

Rise Above is above any other Health Club I've worked out in, the coaches make sure you are doing the exercises correctly, and they are very knowledge. They not only train you but they also teach you how to live a healthy life style! The members are like family!!! I love working out with them.

Rise Above is more than your average workout club - it is a community that cheers you on and helps keep you motivated ❤️The owners are actively engaged when you are there - they make sure you are doing every move correctly - I have gone to others clubs before, but I get up (515 am class) and look forward to my class - I love their philosophy and am excited to see my body transformation .

Great staff.great training and work with each person to improve our lifes.

This is the spot!! Don't sleep on it!! It's not crazy intense and competitive like Cross Fit, but it pushes you to the next level. It's not full of treadmills like OT or LA, the focus is on good form, reps while giving you a full body workout every time you hit the floor. DON'T SLEEP ON THIS ONE, CHECK IT OUT!

exactly what I've been looking for. Amazing knowledge share by the coaches at every workout. It's like being part of a Team.

Rise Above Unconventional Training is a gym like no other. Dan, Paul and Jordyn always go above and beyond.

What can I say? I'm 68 years old and not able to do everything the younger members can, but the instructors here have found ways to modify the workouts so that I'm able to work the same muscle groups as everyone else in class. I love the atmosphere. We don't compete with each other. We compete with ourselves, and we're all encouraged to support each other. I wouldn't work out anyplace else!

First, let me start by saying going to the gym is not my favorite thing. After my Son was born 4yrs ago I got away from the boring repetitive gym routine of doing various machines and then jumping on the elliptical 3 to 4 times a week. After that I mostly kept my fitness level by running a couple times a week. My wife tried a class with Paul and highly suggested we go together on Saturdays. So I decided to give it a whirl. This gym introduced me to team training, something I had never done before. They introduced me to things I had never trained with like kettle bells, steel maces, and battle ropes. I thought I was in ok shape prior to going with my wife to my first class. Since my primary fitness level only included running at that point, I had no Idea that the rest of my body was in bad shape after struggling through my first class. What I wasn’t expecting was such a great environment. I as struggled through my first class, I got high fives, cheers, and was surrounded by people who not only liked being there but wanted to there. The trainer was great as well. He showed me proper form and technique to not only get the most out of workout but also how not injury myself so I can enjoy the workout. I never thought I would use the word “enjoy” when talking about a workout. This gym was so different from anything else I had ever done before and I actually enjoyed their workout. After my first class the trainer Dan asked me what my goal would be if I signed up and trained with them. Me only running for the last 3 yrs thought, Hey I would like to be faster when I do 5ks. I previously had done no cross training which everyone in the running community told me was important, but I ignored. I enjoyed the class so much I thought, sure why not if it can help me be a little faster lets give it a whirl. So I started late summer going 3 times a week. The atmosphere in classes really helped me feel motivated and really made me look forward to coming back every session. Before I knew it, fall started to roll around. I really got into a grove learning proper form and movements and was starting to move up in the weights I could handle at the gym. Then I though why not give my next 5k a good hard solid effort and see how much progress I made with cross training for my runs. Race day came and I gave it a good solid effort. I put in the same effort I did before working out Rise Above. But what I wasn’t expecting was finishing with a great new PR. Not just a little PR(personal Record) bump but a full minute improvement of my PR! Paul and Dan really showed me the importance of cross training and it paid off for me big time. I can honestly say I am now in the best overall shape I have ever been. I don’t think that would ever had happen for me if I dint find a gym, I look forward going to each week. So, if you are looking a gym unlike anything else you have tried, I highly recommended Rise Above. They will not only teach you proper technique but help you train safely so you can meet whatever goals you are trying to reach from weight loss, to toning up, or just trying excel at a sports you love.

This is an amazing place to workout. Very challenging and educational. The staff/coaches are amazing and truly care for their clients. You have to experience it to understand it, no place like it. By far the best decision I have ever made.

I actually LOOK FORWARD to going to the gym with Rise Above. It is never the same work out but always a supportive group! Come see what we are all about :)

Where do I start? Where do you start? Walk in the door, pick up the phone, click on the ad and see what we do here. I started my journey over a year ago and I cannot thank Dan, Paul & Jordyn enough for coaching, listening, pushing, being inventive and believing in me and everyone there. They have certifications to cover just about everything and really get to know you so they can help you be the best version of you. You will learn so much about how your body moves and why....how you can work on correcting years worth of damage bad habits has caused. No judgement.... EVER! Everyone motivates each other in the community. We care about each other. I have learned so much about myself. Body awareness is probably the biggest thing. I have bummed out my chiropractor as I do not need to see him as often now that my core is stronger. I have lost weight and gone from a size 20 to a 14, gained muscle and tons of knowledge. I wouldn’t be anywhere else! Less

After going to my 30 year nursing school class reunion, everyone thought I had changed the most. This is probably because I had gained 70 lbs since I last saw most of them. My friend convinced me to go to this gym. Being very shy and awkward, the gym was never my “scene”. Being an empty nester and menopausal, I was feeling fat, depressed, having trouble sleeping, and struggling with hot flashes. ... More

After going to my 30 year nursing school class reunion, everyone thought I had changed the most. This is probably because I had gained 70 lbs since I last saw most of them. My friend convinced me to go to this gym. Being very shy and awkward, the gym was never my “scene”. Being an empty nester and menopausal, I was feeling fat, depressed, having trouble sleeping, and struggling with hot flashes. So........I went to Rise Above! It was the best decision I could have made for myself!! This gym has a positive and welcoming environment. You have a coach guiding you through every work out. These coaches are so wonderfull!! I have received many pointers on how to eat better since starting here. I am thrilled to say that I have lost 20 lbs in 3 1/2 months. Exercise definitely does the body good. My mood is brighter, I am sleeping so much better, and surprisingly, my hot flashes are at a minimum. Going to the gym is now something I look forward to. If you are looking to start working out again, you definitely need to give this gym a try. It truly is amazing👍🏼😊 Less

My husband and I joined this year.l It's absolutely the best gym program ever. It's intense, but fun! The trainers know what they are doing. They make sure you're warmed up before the workout and stretched after. For me this is extremely important, as I'm in my 50's and not in shape. The classes are small so its like private instruction at every class. They do a full body analysis and give you a ... More

Check them out,! Start 2019 off right! You won't be disappointed! Less

Rise above is different from a normal gym because not only do you get a good work out, you get explanations on the what, how and why for each exercise. The monthly changes in the regimen and the daily changes to the target areas you are working on offer the variety I need to keep from getting bored. Everyone is supportive and the hours are great for my schedule!

Instructors are very knowledgeable and will push you beyond your limits to make sure your giving it your all. Use of different equipment makes it challenging and never boring. Love this place!

Amazing gym. Amazing trainers. They meet you where you are and help you progress. I highly recommend Rise Above!

Rise Above is a great gym and it doesn't matter what your level of fitness is. Going to this gym keeps me motivated everyday and to push myself more than I thought I could! I highly recommend this gym!!

I have joined many gyms over the years. Never have I learned as well as enjoyed working out as I do here. Best Trainers & Members. Very positive environment!!!

This gym is the best. I have been with them since June 2018 and have seen so much change with me. I have never worked out before until now. This gym shows you life learn workouts that you can do no matter how old you are. The trainers are the best and truly care about you !! Thank you and be sure to check it out and join. You will not regret it. Michele OBoyle

Love this gym! The level of experience and knowledge you will receive is exceptional. This gym is for everyone and every fitness level. Group classes feel like one on one classes. Great place to start my days.

I cannot say enough positive things about these workouts and trainers. The workouts are tough but don’t injure, make you sweat and burn and get educated so you can do more out of the gym. The community is best i have ever experienced-bar none.

I love that it is a different workout each time I come. They take time to explain not only how to do it but why. Come check them out!

Awesome trainers in a great facility that is very conveniently located and has many times to accommodate anyone!! Always an intense workout!!! A wonderful sense of community within the group that attend there as well. Everyone supports and encourages each other while at workout and on the Facebook page!!!

Great place, very different from them all. You Get a FREE class, what do you have to loose?

I have been with them for over 8 months and the improvement in my mobility and strength and endurance has improved so much. I couldn’t ask for a better gym! The owners are top notch and so fun! The other members encourage you! There is no BS here. You get a great workout and sweat your butt off and get strong!! 50 pounds gone so far!

I have been a member here for 9 months . Joining Rise Above has been the best decision I have made for my health. I have lost 20 lbs. since joining however the knowledge I have gained regarding fitness, strength, mobility and nutrition is immeasurable. This is unlike any other gym I have ever joined and I've joined them all only to be disappointed with the results. The difference is the coaching and education you receive at every single workout. The coaches are right there working for you, encouraging you and educating you at the same time. The member's of this community are remarkable as well. We cheer each other on and are invested in each other's goals. The variety of workouts are always different and cover everything from mobility, strength and heart rate. I cannot say enough great things about this gym or the staff! Less

My husband and I have trained with Paul and Dan for almost a year. We love the knowledge and passion they bring to their training. We've learned so much about proper form, increasing power, and have had fun with the awesome community atmosphere they bring to their gym. Training sessions are challenging and enjoyable! We highly recommend this training program!!

Join and you will NOT be disappointed! Less

I have been at Rise Above since they opened. They have a no judgement attitude and truly care about their clients. I have seen amazing results...and I am a person who hadn’t worked out in years! They modified exercises for me and encouraged me to keep going! I look forward to each workout and feel amazing afterward!

This is not your typical Gym...the atmosphere is welcoming and all the members are so encouraging!!!! I would recommend anyone who may be thinking about trying to call tooday. Wherever you may be on your fitness journey, they will be able to take you to the next level.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great smaller gym. The trainers really focus on teaching the workouts so that you have a better understanding. The community is also fantastic. Everyone is very supportive of one another in their fitness goals. They offer team training classes as well as semi private . Highly recommend trying them out!
