FYI... honest reviews get either taken down or hidden. Because all you see is 5 stars reviews and…read morethat's way far from integrity and honesty. Shame!! I joined Evolve Strength with high hopes of reaching my fitness goals. However, my experience was disappointing due to the lack of certified trainers. It's concerning that the trainers at Evolve Strength do not have proper certification, as this raises doubts about their expertise and ability to guide clients safely and effectively. Without certified/ credited trainers, there's a significant risk of injuries, which is unacceptable for a fitness facility that prides itself on helping clients achieve their fitness goals! The reason I gave it 4 stars on google reviews and not one because if you put one star.. you won't be able to see your review anymore!!!! even with that you still wont be able to see it!

Please stay far FAR away from this gym…read more they have super deceptive business practices especially against young adults that will lock you into contracts and coaching you do NOT need. I had no idea what i was getting into years ago when i signed up for this gym, i thought i was getting a good deal on coaching and the place looks nice, but the payments will drown you. If you ever think about canceling, good luck. They will only freeze your account, and force you to pay the full years long term + some extra hidden fees. Save yourself the stress and go to literally any other gym in Calgary, hands down this is the worst one I've ever went to throughout my whole life.

Great gym on 14th Street near Kensington…read more I've been a member since the beginning and I've tried some classes and personal training sessions. The classes are good, especially pilates! I love my trainer Wendy... she's a machine! The equipment is great, and machines feel high end. Plus, from what I have seen so far, there is a minimal amount of douchy gym rats there! ;) Very nice change rooms and a couple of large showers. I guess the only down side is the size of the classroom, which limits the number of people who can take the classes. I see that as a good thing, because I prefer smaller classes, but it may get crowded.

Part of my New Years resolution was to try something new each month, so when a friend invited me to…read morehis Crossfit class because it was "Bring a Friend Day", I said yes! Since I always want to be prepared for anything I get into, I looked up what to expect - the exercises (thanks YouTube!), the terminology (box, WOD, AMRAP, PB, PR) and of course, what to wear lol Jane was our coach for the class and she was awesome! After doing some warm ups, and knowing that a handful of us were beginners, she demoed each exercise before we did them. What I found that was really great about Crossfit is that everyone is really encouraging and supportive. Even though I was huffing and puffing from doing my AMRAP (and possibly sweating profusely), having someone say "Great job on your Thrusters!" makes you go from "Omg someone was watching me?!" to "Yayyyyyy me!" *fist pump* If you like group work outs, but knowing you're only competing with yourself (PR and PB!), give Crossfit a try. Besides, when was the last time you did something for the first time?

It's taken me a few good years to really commit to a gym. The last time I did was at World Heath…read moreand it was such a horrible experience I thought I would never do it again. Downtown gyms are really horrible. Just let me get that out first. I finally chose Anytime because they ARE NOT/DO NOT HAVE: Absurd prices, crowds, Iinitiation fee, activation fee, towel fee, pushy sales people. What do they have? 24 hr access, towel service, individual shower rooms, awesome trainers that know you by first name, yoga studio with video workouts, tvs, good looking people, and free parking. All downtown. Yes, it's true. Good amount of cardio equipment, and more weights than you can imagine. My gym buddies have also commented that they have more machines than most locations. The shower and bathrooms are also really new and clean, no gross tiles with the weird swampy smells, and rusty metal stuff. and because it's on 1st street, you can grab a bite just about anywhere along this street because you had a great workout and you deserve it! It's been sort of counter productive for me, but I assume I'm the only one with no willpower.

Train RIGHT - Compete - get RESULTS…read more Are you training for a race? Competitive athlete? You've got to check out TCR. It's been some time that I trained with Cory (the owner of TCR). He coached me back in my rugby days when I played for Calgary in the RCSL (Rugby Canada Super League). However, today a buddy called me and said, "hey, I'm buying a mountain bike, where should I go?" Well, TCR offers mostly road bikes for Tri & IronMan. They do have a mountain bike on the showroom floor but it just might be overkill for my buddy. That said, what TCR does do is bike fittings. If you're going to INVEST in a bike, invest in a bike that actually fits YOU. Think... life time value of my investment... think like that, spend the small fee on a fitting and you'll buy a bike that is kind to your body over the coming years of millions of peddle rotations... Cory (the owner) or Rich will fit you... and THEN you go invest your money in the right bike... be it there at TCR or another store. Secondly, if you're competing... they'll inspire the athlete within! Take their VO2 Max test... you'll HATE the test - I did - but you'll quickly learn what zone you should train in and at what level of intensity. Again, train on your own without this knowledge... how will you know you're training efficiently? TCR is a small boutique lab & retail store in Kensington (not on Parkdale as the Yelp address states) They're just above Mission Snow Boards and in the same strip mall as Nellies Breakfast. The staff know there stuff ...be it bikes, lab testing, nutrition, service, repair, bike storage, Cancervive, Tri's, Ironman... You're an athlete in training? Rugby, Soccer... even biking... stop by TCR for a little lab work. Put it this way, just a few years back when Theo Fleury got back into shape for Flames camp, Cory was his trainer! Theo showed up to camp as the 8th most fittest athlete. I take competition seriously, if you do too... go to TCR. PS: I don't charge extra for typo's - they're just my gift to you ;-)
