I had to line up just to get changed. Facility it self sucks. You get what you pay for. here's a kicker, they tell you no cancelation fees then when you go to cancel they tell you that you have to still pay for another month. That's a cancelation fee!!!! you cancel because you dont want to go there so why would I want to go for another month? avoid this place and pay for somewhere else a bit more. This place is a dump.

Moved over to the West End Gym from Capillano and I must say Capillano is the better faucility…read more They are advertising everywhere that with the black membership you get the Hydro Massage and this franchise was allowed to not put in any hydro massage beds, what the hell. The free weight area is not big enough and I witnessed people ready to fight each other as the fly benches do not have enough space between each other. The smell of the mens washroom is sickening, and the urinal will not flush. The gym floor has lights burnt out everywhere. Come on management, lets get on the ball or get on the bus.

A couple of months later, I have to return to take off a star. If you'd like to see my thoughts on…read morethe workout experience at Orangetheory, please expand my previous review for more details. Since doing the single class in August, I've been bothered by weekly phone calls asking me to come back for more classes. The voicemails left have varying details, with some saying I can have more free classes, others saying I can access an introductory rate, and even others saying that I signed up as a lululemon practice member, but then didn't attend the class. Many other studios I have visited called or emailed with follow-up, but left it at a single call or message. Pro tip for management: if I didn't call you back after the first, second, third or fourth calls, then a fifth probably isn't necessary. I really hate high pressure sales tactics, and the predatory nature of some private gym chains. I'm pretty unimpressed with this business model, and won't be returning for more classes, free or otherwise.

The staff is super friendly at this location. I ended up forgetting my gym shoes here and…read morethankfully they don't throw anything out at the end of the night! This is an insanely busy location. I'm honestly not used to the sheer amount of people who go here. I thought downtown was busy but this is nothing. Almost every class is waitlisted! I think there are people here signing up months in advance which is totally admirable, but makes it hard to get in. The classes that I recommend are in the afternoon, and that works for me since I work from home. If you're trying to get in before work it'll be tough... not going to lie. The layout of this OTF is old-school. They have that back area where it just feels like there isn't enough room for the weight part of the classes. You feel very cramped when working out and the TRXs are not aligned with the benches, so you need to use them at an angle. There is, however, parking! Which I love! Can't hate on parking.

I've recently returned to the gym scene after being absent for the past 5 years having two kiddos…read more In the past two weeks, I've visited 4 gyms and 3 yoga studios. I must say that this gym location, GoodLife Fitness, in St. Albert is my favourite of the gyms I visited and hence my new membership here. What I like: It's brand spanking new. All the equipment, the building, the sauna, and exercise rooms - everything is clean and sparkling. As you enter on the main floor there is loads of cardio equipment with a huge television on the main wall made up of many smaller screens as well as individual screens on the cardio equipment. The main floor also has a weight circuit and a personal training area. Also on the main floor is child minding and the locker rooms. There are saunas in the ample locker rooms and plenty of space for getting changed, locking up your valuables, and getting showered/dressed after a workout if you so choose. Just before you take the stairs to go up, there are several reclining massage chairs. Upstairs is where the free weights live as well as another complete set of circuit equipment. There is also another washroom upstairs. Now here's what made me choose this gym, the exercise rooms are great! The group fitness room is wider than it is long but ample for for 60 participants and there is a dedicated cycle room with state of the art spin bikes (ready for clip shoes) with LOTS of fans which is a must for me in a spin room. There must be more than 40 bikes - lots! What I like about the group fitness schedule is that they have classes ranging from 6am to 8pm with many back to back in case you want to combo top a Jillian Micheal's 30 minute shred class with a Les Mills Body Flow (yoga, tai chi, pilates combo) class. Speaking of Les Mills group fitness classes, that means they get new releases with new choreography and music regularly for Body Pump, Body Step, Body Flow, Body Attack, etc. They also currently offer CXWork and Zumba. All classes are included with your membership fee! There are yoga mats and everything you need all ready for you in the group fitness room if you don't bring your own. The staff have been welcoming on every visit and the parking lot has ample lighting for anyone nervous about late nights or early mornings because this gym is open 24 hours a day! The cons - This is the largest of gyms and there aren't any ladies only areas but that won't deter me any but I know this could be a deal breaker for some. I'm definitely excited and motivated to put my health first and GoodLife is just the place to do it!

After working my way through 2 years of nasty grief and health problems and other assorted issues (thanks, pandemic), I was determined to turn over a new leaf and begin really taking care of myself. Over the summer, I began walking around my neighbourhood, but I knew I wouldn't be able to keep it up over the winter. This place is so incredibly close that it fit the bill for contintuing my commitment to fitness. The indoor track is now my second home. I do at least a kilometer each time, and I like that they reverse the direction each day so you get a different view. It also overlooks the activity in the gym below, so you can chuckle at the kids doing karate or playing indoor soccer in the wintertime. There's plenty of exercise equipment. The Lifecycles are great because you can watch TV or internet, and power your usage with your movement. There's the studio where they have all the classes (Zumba, cycle, etc), the gym for basketball, volleyball, etc, and the workout room. Last weekend I got brave enough to try the pool. A little chilly when I got in, but the water was actually pretty warm once I was in a while. The day locker rooms are nearly immaculate. I like that there's a wet and dry locker area, with the handy cords for your locker key that you can put around your wrist while you work out. For an additional price, there are enhanced locker rooms with overnight lockers, towel service, etc. Everyone I've met here, staffwise, has been friendly and approachable. Make sure to wipe down the equipment after you use it. One of these days, I'm going to try out the smoothie bar in the lobby. Can't speak to the daycare or children's programs since I don't have kids, but I've seen all kinds of activities for them in the gym since I've been coming. If I was a parent, I'd definitely consider enrolling my kid in some classes or daycare here.
