PERSONAL TRAINER IN LAKEVIEW
A private 1-on-1 training studio at 2900 N Broadway, built for busy Lakeview professionals who want real results in 30 focused minutes.
A Private Studio in the Heart of Lakeview
Transform Personal Training has called Lakeview home since day one. You'll find us at 2900 N Broadway St, steps from the Clark, Broadway and Diversey junction at the south end of the neighborhood. If you live or work anywhere between Belmont and the Lincoln Park border, we're the training studio around the corner, not a commute.
This is a private studio, not a big-box gym. There's no crowd waiting for the squat rack, no sales floor, and nobody working out next to you. When you walk in, the space, the equipment and the coach are yours for 30 focused minutes. We open at 5am on weekdays so you can train before the Loop commute, and evening sessions run as late as 9pm.
Getting here is easy without a car: the #36 Broadway and #22 Clark buses stop within a block, and the Wellington and Belmont L stops are about a ten minute walk. Driving? Get directions or reach out through our contact page and we'll point you to the easiest parking nearby.
What Training Here Looks Like
Every part of the program is built around you, not a template.
30-Minute 1-on-1 Sessions
Private, efficient workouts personalized to your goals and fitness level. Long enough to work hard, short enough to fit a real Chicago schedule.
Nutrition That Fits Your Life
Meal plans prescribed by your trainer around your goals and preferences, so progress continues between sessions, restaurant dinners included.
Daily Support
Check-ins and coaching from your own trainer every day, not just when you're in the studio. Accountability is the part most people are missing.
A Coach Matched to You
Weight loss, strength, joint-friendly training, pre/post-natal: we match you with the coach whose expertise and personality fit your goals.
Your Lakeview Coaching Team
Founder David Bostik opened Transform after losing 150 lbs himself, and he built the studio he wished he'd had: supportive, private and free of judgment. The coaching team, Gerri, Miriam, Eric-Todd and Kristen, brings decades of combined experience across strength training, weight loss, corrective exercise, pre/post-natal fitness and accountability coaching. Meet the whole team here.
What Clients Say

"Dave has a confident and seasoned grasp of all of the technical aspects of high-level training. To work with him is to experience intense focus. Plus, I grew some better-than-average guns."
"My trainer comes up with the craziest, toughest, but fun workouts I have ever done! He has become my mentor, and my friend, and I am so thankful I had the opportunity to change my life with him!"

Lakeview Training FAQs
Where in Lakeview is Transform Personal Training located?
We're at 2900 N Broadway St, Chicago, IL 60657, at the south end of Lakeview just steps from the Clark, Broadway and Diversey junction. The studio sits a couple of blocks north of the Lincoln Park border, so we're easy to reach from both neighborhoods.
Can I get to the studio without a car?
Yes. The #36 Broadway and #22 Clark buses stop within about a block of the studio, the #76 Diversey stops two blocks south, and the Wellington and Belmont L stations are roughly a ten minute walk. Plenty of clients also bike over from the Lakefront Trail.
What are your hours?
We open early and stay late on purpose: Monday through Thursday 5am to 9pm, Friday 5am to 8pm, and Saturday 7am to 3pm. Every session is by appointment, so you're never waiting on equipment.
How much does personal training cost in Lakeview?
We publish our pricing instead of hiding it behind a sales call. Sessions are 30 minutes, which keeps the per-session cost manageable, and plans are tiered by how often you train. You can see the current tiers on our studio services page, and your first consultation is always free.
Do I need to be in shape before I start?
No, and you wouldn't be the first to ask. Our founder started his own journey at 346 lbs, and this studio was built to be a supportive, non-judgmental place. Your program starts wherever you are today.
