I started training with Brennan about 7 months ago, when I was 7 months postpartum. As a new mom +…read moreworking at home, it was one of the best decisions I've made to fill my own cup. Not only do I feel great physically, my mind feels the same way too. Brennan cues are always on point and knows how to keep it challenging yet supportive when I am learning a new exercise. I've always been a gym rat (even when I travel), so I know that having the right trainer and facility make all the difference in the world. Everyone is very friendly and with a positive good energy. I'd encourage you to at least try Kraken and see how a private gym can help achieve your wellness goal. The space is also super clean and well organized.

Working with Kraken Training has changed my life!…read more Late last year, I was shopping around for a powerlifting coach to help me get started in the sport. Though I'm no stranger to the gym, my knowledge about health and fitness was lacking. I got minimal returns for my efforts and suffered one injury after another; I had extreme and unsustainable diets; and poor posture. I've always had reservations with working with a trainer. A few common reasons I told myself were "why pay so much money when I can just go on the internet and try the latest burn-fat in 90 days program" or "they don't really care about my progress, these trainers just want my money". I'm sure you've all felt something similar at some point about trainers. Nonetheless I decided to at least give it a try. Thanks to the power of social media, I stumbled upon Kraken training on Instagram. I was intrigued so I reached out to them and came in for a consultation. Josko put me through the standard movement test and I got some feedback about my form. I was open about the fact that I was still shopping around for coaches. After telling him this, instead of fluffing up his services, he actually recommended other coaches for me to check out. On top of that, he even gave me some links and resources to help me with corrective movements. I knew that Josko was someone who I could trust and genuinely cared about my success. However, because of circumstances, I didn't end up choosing him at that time. But, that encounter left such a positive impression on me that I knew I wanted to work with him at some point. Then, almost a year later, on one fateful morning when I was feeling gross about my body because I had recently amassed over 10lbs of fat over the past few months and weighed my heaviest in years, Instagram once again came to my rescue and it flashes me the ad for Kraken Transformations 6-week challenge (it's as if my iPhone knew exactly what I needed). I instantly signed up. Then, I got a call from Josko and a few days later we got right to work. It's been 10 weeks since that morning and I am in the best shape of my life - physically and mentally. I've lost close to 25lbs while retaining most of my strength. My posture has improved along with my mobility. I've learned tons about proper dieting and trying to limit my extreme tendencies. As well, my confidence and mood are at a high. However, more impressive to me than the results is how I achieved them. This process has been relatively the smoothest I have gone through. I credit this to the combination of every aspect about the program from the workouts, nutrition, daily accountability, support, and coaching. Do not underestimate the value of a good trainer. Josko is someone who has the technical knowledge to help you get to where you want to go. If he doesn't, then he will either direct you to someone who does or he will learn. I admire that he is always trying to improve himself and uses his knowledge to try and become a better coach, mentor, and person overall. Josko's program is not the usual cookie-cutter ones that you find online, they are customized and made specifically for you. Follow it and you'll get results. He knows how to support as well as challenge people. Going on a fitness journey is not easy and you want someone you can trust, Josko is that guy. He is dedicated, accountable, and follows through with what he says. On top of that, Josko's surrounds himself with like-minded individuals. The Kraken Team is just as exceptional. When you decide to work with Kraken Training, you have essentially joined a community that uplifts each other.

Truly a hidden gem, this gym is tucked inside a residential complex in the Lougheed area…read more Definitely a no-frills kind of gym, the equipment and decor isn't the newest and the bathrooms are kind of cramped, but they have mostly everything that you would need in a gym and they are undergoing renovations. My favourite aspects of this gym are the 4 squat racks and deadlift area which are still not too common. At my previous gym, I always found myself waiting for the one squat rack. Here, there isn't much of a wait. People seem friendly and put away their weights, there is free parking, membership is on par with chain-gyms, and there's a pool too. Also, the people coming here seem to be on a time-crunch and don't stall or look at their phones as much. They seem to know what they are doing so sharing equipment is much easier. For those used to the nicer-looking chain-gyms, the weights don't go up increments of 2.5lb if you're used to that. People who are not used to only using free-weights and want to use machines may find that F2K doesn't offer enough variety of gym machines, nor are they very new. The TVs are also limited, not sure if that's a pro or con to some people. Overall, this is a good gym. I hope not too many people come here and ovecrowd it. Also, sometimes they blast Adele on the speakers. I think good-taste is important in a gym, don't you?

This is probably the best gym I have been to. Not for the aesthetics, but for the amount of…read moreequipment and space this place has. Plus i love that there are TONS of leg machines. My favourite day of the week is LEG DAY...so this is perfect given that i murk my legs each workout..thanks to this gym. My husband and I always visit when we are back in town and to be honest - anywhere we go we try to find a gym just like this one. Not crowded, tons of machines.. and people who are there to WORK OUT. . . I miss ultimate fitness and cant wait to go back once i return from ATL. :) Yeah this gym is expensive, but i rather pay $$ for a gym that has equipment and space than pay 10$ at steve nashs for a shitty gym with bunch of idiots. I hate because i have been there and its nothing but a creep sesh for bunch of roided monkeys. OBVIOUSLY, i rather shell out money for a good place where i know people are there to workout and not creep or chit chat. This is a raw gym - and its good for people looking to gain mass and strength. If you are looking for tvs on treadmills, or if you want some attention then THIS is NOT the gym for you. =) A++++++

Grim's Gym is a little tough to find. It's situated in a warehouse on Spring Street behind the main…read morestreet of Port Moody, St. John Avenue. The place is huge. They turned a massive warehouse into a workout mecca. There is a massive gym space filled with free weights and machines. In the back o the main floor, they have a whole section for legs. In the front when you first walk in, there is a big section of cardio machines. They have a big screen TV to watch as you do your workout. The gym is fully secure as well. You have to use a key card to enter the fitness area. The locker rooms are fully secure with a shower and private washroom facilities. There is an upstairs section that divides into an ab and stretch area. There is a full boxing area and dance/aerobics/yoga area too. Also, behind closed doors is a woman's only section. I personally don't know what's in there, but I bet it's hot! Sorry... They hve good kids working at the front desk who will cook you an after workout meal or make you a shake. Good place to train. Check it out as a member or a drop in for $5.

Now open 7 days a week! A one stop shop for aerial fitness as well as other activities such a…read moreparkour , boot camp, circus conditioning, partner acro, stretch and strength etc. Aerial fitness sports include pole dance/fit (studio has 8 X-poles, which are the Cadillac of poles! ) , aerial silks, aerial hammock yoga, aerial lyra/hoop and sometimes but not always, they have trapeze class. Acrofit has an awesome roster of coaches, including international pole and aerial silks/lyra champion, Sylvia Louis! All of the coaches are very welcoming and encouraging to achieve your goals. Classes are on a drop-in basis so you can join anytime regardless of your fitness level. They also offer 8 week semester sessions for most of the aerial and other sports that they teach. They welcome students of all age and very affordable pricing. When you purchase a 20 class pass, it works out to being $16.00 a class. They also have open practice almost everyday, sometimes twice a day for $11.00 a pop. Love it here! First class is always FREE :)

I've been going to Acrofit for a few months now and I'm loving it. I bought a 10 pass drop in to…read morestart off. Newbies get it for half off which is a sweet deal. First class is also free, but I bought the classes before being able to redeem it. I started off doing pole and I'm not going to lie, the first class was a little intimidating. I've done pole fitness at one other facility prior to Acrofit, and I can confidently say that the instructors at Acrofit challenge you a lot more. While more challenging, it was very fun. Another thing to note is the pole classes focuses more on skill and form rather than being flirty and sensual. I'm not into that so that's a thumbs up from me. As well, the prices here are way more appealing than most other pole fitness facilities. The drop-in class had other members at a higher skill level than me, but the instructor was able to teach new moves to everyone without giving any other students more attention than the others. Soon after my first class, I registered for a pole semester (level 1) where I knew everyone was going to be as amateur as I was. It was a really welcoming + comfortable environment, and the instructor was able to teach us all the same stuff as we were all learning at the same pace. There are new owners now and the drop-in classes have been tweaked a little to allow students of similar skill level to train with each other, which I prefer. After I finished my first pole semester, I registered for pole level 2, and I also delved into trying out aerial silks. The instructors for the silk classes are just as helpful and encouraging as those I've met in pole. They encourage you to challenge yourself but don't pressure you into accelerating your learning curve. I took a tumbling class and it's the same deal. Great instructors, challenging, yet fun. I bought more class drop ins on top of my semester class and I'm probably gonna be a long-term client now.

I was visiting my old stomping grounds of North Delta, and this was the closest location. Though it…read moremay technically be in South Delta, it's virtually right in the middle near Tilbury Island - so it was less than 15 minutes to get to. The 'box' or the gym is a bit smaller than the one i'm used to, but it worked out for the class size I was with. For anyone unfamiliar with Crossfit, the basic idea (which is right on the name) is that you are training across various disciplines/exercises (cardio, strength, balance, functional movement, etc...). It means there's always a challenge and even a weakness you may have to address. But if you stick with it, it leaves you in better shape and performing at a level you may not have believed you could reach. This CrossFit location was very welcoming from both staff and members. To my benefit (or at my expense) we were doing two exercises which were either new (rope climb) or difficult for me (double under skipping). The coach (Terri-Lyn) did a great job in encouraging everyone to attempt the rope climb, even if some (like myself) were tempted to opt for an alternate exercise. Everyone was also receiving coaching for the double unders too - and that's another huge benefit of CrossFit and what this location achieves, is the coaching. It was a great visit, and I'll be sure to return if I'm back in the area. Anyone who's looking to radically improve their fitness, and do it in a place where you receive coaching and encouragement should certainly check this place out.

I had contacted the Jim and advise them that my husband attends the gym as well as my tenant who of…read morecourse have memberships and with a membership you can bring a friend for free. I stated that I was interested in getting a membership but wanted to try out the gym first so inquired about drop in fee. I was advised they would charge me $20.00, though I could get in free if I go with my husband or tenant, I just wanted to work out earlier and didn't want to wait for either. I asked them what the monthly membership fee was, they replied, it's $15.00 a month to utilize 1 location. I then said, I know two people who already have memberships already who live in the same household, I just want to try out the gym as I was thinking about purchasing my own membership however, you still want to charge me $20? teply "yes" I understand they need to charge a drop in fee, I think I would treat every situation a bit different depending on circumstance. If I cannot prove Vy on my drivers license, that two other members of the gym lived in my household, I can understand that reply since there are people who will lie about things like that. It really makes me sad because I wanted to train there and have the option to work out with my husband or my tenant if I wanted to, however that experience made me not want to go to the gym ever

No outstanding balance in my account. No missed payments. Just a membership card that might as well be a coaster. When I tried calling this location? Silence. Nobody picks up. Ever. I had to track down a completely different branch just to speak to a human being, and their solution? "You need to go in person to that location because of outstanding invoices." What invoices? The ones that don't exist in your own system? The ones you never notified me about while happily swiping my card every single month? This isn't customer service. It's customer hostage-taking. They'll take your money with zero friction, but the moment you need actual access to the thing you're paying for, you're on your own. No answers. No accountability. Just the privilege of chasing down staff across multiple locations to beg for entry to a facility you've already funded. If you enjoy paying premium prices for phantom memberships and speaking to voicemail, this is your place. Everyone else: run.

If I could give it less than one star, I most definitely would. I was explicitly told I had to…read morecome in person to cancel my membership. I took the time to do so, yet the cancellation was never processed. As a result, I continued to be charged without my knowledge. I accept this as my fault for not checking my credit card closer, but when I brought this to their attention (not expecting a refund as I should have checked my card) I was told I would still need to pay another month's fees and a yearly maintenance fee!! $%%#@$#%$ This situation reflects a serious lack of follow-through and really low grade customer care. I fulfilled my obligation by cancelling in person, and the failure to process it was entirely on their end. Expecting additional fees after their oversight is just bad business ESPECIALLY when they can see I haven't been to their gym in OVER A YEAR!!! I would not recommend this gym to anyone and I will be sure to spread the word.
