VASA Fitness Northbrook & Mt. Prospect, IL Built to Scale. Trusted by Every Member.
Fitness for the Masses. THE VASA VISION
VASA Fitness is built on one belief: comprehensive fitness should be accessible to everybody. Chief Operating Officer Chris Griebe has spent more than 30 years in the industry, and he sees VASA’s mission in clear terms: build strong communities, build strong teams and deliver beautiful facilities at a high value to hundreds of thousands of members across the country. In Northbrook and Mount Prospect, Illinois, that mission comes to life in two Chicago-area clubs with expansive strength floors, functional turf, studio classes and a full cardio deck.
A Partner Built for the Pace. THE PARTNERSHIP
VASA opened its 74th club in September 2026, with 12 more planned before year’s end and more than 20 slated for 2027. Growth at that speed demands a partner that can keep up. Life Fitness / Hammer Strength works alongside VASA from the earliest conceptual designs through layout reviews and fitness equipment package decisions, sharing what the team sees across the industry and on VASA’s own floors. Together, they land on the right equipment mix to serve every member in every facility.
Every Style. Every Level. THE FLOOR EXPERIENCE
VASA members typically spend 45 minutes to an hour on the gym floor, and they have somewhere to be after. The equipment has to work, day in and day out. Life Fitness / Hammer Strength commercial gym equipment gives VASA the range to support every training style, from basic strength to hybrid training. Equipment that guides proper form helps beginners train with confidence, while veteran lifters use the same floor to push eccentric work and challenge themselves. One member preparing for a Hyrox race uses sleds, sandbags and turf to build race training into her everyday workouts. That experience stays consistent at every VASA club, so members feel at home wherever they train.
Growth That Keeps Moving. THE RESULTS
VASA’s growth runs on consistency, and Life Fitness / Hammer Strength delivers it. Members count on the same dependable equipment from Northbrook and Mount Prospect to every club across the country. Staff stand behind it, too: VASA’s district manager trains on the same equipment he recommends to members. As VASA pushes to deliver more value at a low price in every new city, Life Fitness / Hammer Strength is building that future alongside it.
