GetFit1st is a family-owned fitness studio in Chicago’s Humboldt Park area offering personal training, semi-private training, small-group fitness classes, and martial arts instruction. Established in 2000, the studio combines individualized coaching, strength training, mobility work, and martial arts to help clients improve fitness, move better, and build sustainable exercise habits.

GetFit1st offers one-on-one personal training tailored to individual goals, including muscle building, weight management, and overall fitness. Semi-private training allows partners and small groups to work out together while receiving programming suited to each person’s fitness level and needs. Virtual training options are also available.

Small-group classes accommodate up to 10 participants and include Boxing Fitness, Weekend Warrior, and Strength & Mobility. Sessions combine activities such as boxing drills, strength exercises, conditioning, and mobility work, with coaches providing instruction and modifications when needed. The studio also offers X-PRESS STRETCH, a 30-minute assisted stretching and mobility session.

Additional programs include beginner Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, youth sports performance training, youth self-defense, and workshops focused on mobility and self-defense. Families and athletes can explore programs designed to build physical skills, coordination, confidence, and discipline. The studio also makes its space available for private events, wellness workshops, and group activities.

Owned by brothers Julius and Julian Collins, GetFit1st emphasizes personalized instruction, community, and long-term wellness rather than quick fixes. Its coaching approach focuses on understanding how each person moves and developing fitness habits that support strength, mobility, and overall well-being.

Located on West North Avenue, GetFit1st serves Chicago residents looking for personalized fitness coaching, small-group workouts, and martial arts-based training in a private studio environment.
