I've been looking for an excuse to get back in shape for years and I've finally made it a priority thanks to ICW. I love working with Chino, showing up to meet him keeps me accountable and knowing that he loves being at ICW makes me want to come every day.

Dan Giordano

ICW is a win-win for everyone. As a client, I get an awesome workout for a lot less than I’d typically pay for personal training, and it’s with an amazing person who’s become a friend. To say that ICW offers life-changing workouts is not an exaggeration.
