This gym is unequivocally the worst fitness experience in the lower mainland. Equipment is…read moreregularly taken over by personal trainers. In fact, several times throughout the week, at peak periods FW staff trainers hold classes that uses the entire gym making it impossible to train independently. There's only one set of pretty much any equipment which means your often waiting for weights and benches. The washrooms are never cleaned and often in disrepair. Equipment is rarely wiped down by members even if FW actually filled the hygiene stations. It's disgusting. More importantly, it is not a safe space and there's no staff on site if aggressive individuals are present. People regularly fob in large unpaying groups. When asked about this, FW says "there's nothing we can do". You're better off doing pushups in your living room.

Personalized workout plans can also be provided by Martina and feel free to drop in whenever you like and work out at your own pace. Martina is super nice (although she may look intimidating), water and towels are also available. Equipment is all brand new and really nice. Small space but a great bunch of people and you receive more attention from your trainer due to smaller class sizes. Kids classes are available on some afternoons

It is reasonably size, and has a lot of equipment you need. It gets busy, but never too packed that you have to wait for equipment to use during your session.

Kyle and Yelena are friendly, kind, professional and VERY knowledgeable.

For…read moretime starved people like me, the efficiency of 30 minute sessions, not to mention the reasonable cost, keeps me pumped to come back. Warning: you will sweat a lot! Here's how it goes down: You can book sessions (either single or semi private) online or via the app Arrive early or stay late to use the bikes for some additional cardio. Sweat from the first moment with a pretty vigorous workout. This is not like that crazed extreme I've heard about with crossfit and no one is yelling at you like you are a soldier. Imagine a more encouraging, high intensity environment that happens to smell like tea tree which they use for disinfecting. The gym is a full body studio with free weights, benches, balls and trx bands, plus they have a seperate space for classes. It's a pretty intimate space, with a max of 3 trainers (and 6 people) at any given time. They have really worked hard to maximize a small space. The only thing I wish they had was a shower space so I could go straight to work after. As someone who has been working out with personal trainers now for 1.5 years, Jesse and his team have really wowed me. It's a cardio kick in the pants and you are pretty much guaranteed to improve quickly. Jesse, AJ and Clem are all fantastic and I hear that Hannah is known as the "wedding whisperer." They also have a rad referral program, so feel free to mention me. 5 referrals and I get a vitamix!

This review is long over due. I was going to post it before they moved from their original location…read moreand it's been sitting in my draft box ever since. I've been to many typical gyms, boutique gyms, and I've been on a million fitness fads. Basically I'm like most people who have tried different kinds of work outs all throughout their lives. A lot of these places tend to take your money and leave you to it. Hannah, Jesse and the rest of their team really truly care about you and they care about helping you reach your fitness goals. Supportive, welcoming and not intimidating are just a few words to describe their very dynamic gym. They WANT you to come in and train with them. They get such a high off of seeing you get fit and will send you personal reminders to make your next appointment. Every trainer at Fit in 30 is an absolute gem. Over the few years, I've been attending, I've almost tried them all out by now! They all have their own style of training so I would recommend signing up with a different one until you find one you connect well with. They're all excellent trainers so you can't go wrong, and the flexibility to choose between trainers at the time slot you want is fantastic. There really are NO excuses not to go. I know all too well that it's easy to convince yourself that there are... but their scheduling system helps eliminate a part of that. The concept is high intensity. Yes, you've heard of it before, but they were a HIIT style gym before HIIT became popular and they're always trying to come up with new ways to bring more value to their clients. Tons of weight loss and weight maintenance talks, one on one support from your trainer, the occasional community event, fundraisers, monthly challenges, and even a free group workout session every Sunday (free for everyone - member or not)! If you're looking for results, they will get you results. All within a mere 30 minutes. There's a reason their gym is always packed with happy, returning clients (returning being the key word here). I would highly encourage you to come and experience it for yourself.

But there was a guy Richard who seems to have some sort of personality disorder (sometimes super sweet and kind and then switches to a sort of psyhcho bully persona).

Overall its a good facility, but they should vet the trainers a bit better for social skills.

It has not been easy, but I told Dean at the beginning, I'll do what ever it takes and follow his lead, now I'm a living testimony of hiring the right trainers, and putting in the work required to get the results.
