Our mission

Reality Fitness is the brainchild of Nicki Anderson, the owner of the Award-winning studio. After Anderson spent 6 years training clients in their homes, she took the concept of complete privacy and opened her one-of-a-kind personal training studio. Reality Fitness is the only studio that offers complete private training rooms and employs an impressive line-up of personal trainers.
Reality Fitness trains a diverse groups of clients both male and female, 15-75 years young. The goal of the Reality Staff is to provide each client with the insight necessary to achieve his or her stated goals.
"Often times people are given the same exercises over and over again. You have to know your clients, understand their limitations while building upon their strengths. It's about educating every client on how their body responds and performs optimally. Training with various modalities will allow the client to realize success and avoid injury," says Anderson.
The combination of great education and motivation is what creates success for the clients at Reality Fitness. Give the studio a call, and come see what makes Reality Fitness Naperville's #1 Personal Training Studio.
What We're Hearing
Having a knowledgeable person work out a routine for me and then be part of my motivation works for me. Yes, the stairs up to the second floor are steep, but I can now climb them without breathing so hard. My trainer is full of knowledge, motivation, patience and support. I am amazed at how the body responds to exercise so quickly. I am amazed that I look forward to each session and to exercising more at home!

I have been a client of Reality Fitness for over 2 years now and I can honestly say that it has had such a positive impact on my life. I feel better and have more energy than did when I was 10 (or 20) years younger. My trainer, knows just how to motivate me to get me to achieve my best and balances that with my personal medical history. It is such a pleasure to go and work out twice a week that I actually look forward to exercising. All of the staff really care about everyone who walks in the door and it shows in everything that they do.

I cannot say enough good things about Reality Fitness---the studio is comfortable and the trainers really care. I am stronger than I have ever been. I am motivated to move every day and to eat foods that help me be healthiest. My trainer has been the best fitness role model that I have ever encountered. I would recommend Reality Fitness to anyone who seeks to incorporate fitness and wellness into their lives.

I signed up for an introductory 6-week program to see if my back felt better or worse as a result. Within 3 weeks, I was starting to notice that my back was not screaming at me during the day and I was sleeping better at night. My trainer created a program designed just for me and she's always adding new things into the mix to keep it interesting. I feel better overall, have lost some weight and inches and have increased my strength and stamina

I had been a regular customer of Reality Fitness for over a year. I find the approach to be holistic - focusing on both behavioral and physical aspects. The trainers stay abreast with the latest developments and customize the sessions to the individual. Often, I find myself counting the days to my next session. For someone who had never run in his life, I just ran my first 8K today!

I love the private setting for one on one training at Reality Fitness. I like the Jefferson Street location because I can "multi-task"- workout and then run my in town errands. The training staff is awesome.

I started at Reality severely overweight, barely able to lift 5 lb weights and unable to climb the stairs without stopping to catch my breath. After 4 months, I've lost 25+ lbs, can lift 15-20 lb weights and can jog up the stairs! Most importantly, my trainer at Reality started me on a path to a lifetime of fitness!

Over the last 6 months I have transformed the way in which I exercise, eat, and think about health and I owe much of that to my trainer and Reality Fitness. Trainers that are experienced, credentialed, inspiring, think holistically, and are focused on long-term results are the hallmarks of Reality Fitness.

It's fun and (I get) great results. What more could you ask for? My trainer makes it his goal to exceed my expectations every workout. Everyone's attitude is so upbeat and positive

Over the years I have belonged to many different facilities and have had several different trainers. What sets Reality Fitness apart is their attention to detail regarding an individualized program and positive reinforcement. It's so great not to have to worry about how you look when you work out thanks to the private rooms. Reality Fitness is truly a judgment free zone!
