The Gym Fitness Club LTD

Super cheap rates and not very intimidating. Usually go anywhere from 5pm-close. Ershad is an awesome guy and a great worker, and the manager there is just an awesome and understanding person. Always love my experience there.

Love this gym! I don't feel intimidated, its never crowded, the owner is amazing, its well priced, lots of room & they have a women's area!! On top of all that, they have tanning, massages, group workouts, food & childcare. :)

People are very nice. It can sometimes be busy but my hubby and I always find a machine to use. They've recently made a change in the layout so to me that shows they look to make improvements and freshen things up. My favourite things of this gym are the vibe (members are focused on their workouts and not on you), the women's only area on the second floor, and the sauna (usually empty, so it feels really private). There's always parking and that's something I struggle with in Calgary. Didn't give it 5 stars because it would have to be perfect and immaculate for that score. I miss Amanda! She was always cleaning, always tidying up, always busy doing something. Don't get me wrong... it is NOT dirty. However, there's dust on machines, like the front, bottom part of the treadmills (weekend mornings) and on the grills of the fans on the 2nd floor. Today for the third time I go on a weekend morning and had to watch Operation Smile on one TV and an infomercial on a tool on another. Not an entertaining, nor motivating way to start the workout. The morning guy said he didn't have the remotes to change it to something less depressing (my words, not his). Hope that now that I made him aware of this that he had the initiative to ask for them. Not super important, but I feel that what's on TV and the music playing have an effect on the members. Overall, I definitely recommend.

Been a member for about seven years now. Took the last year off due to injury. Just went back the other day and it still feels like home. My limited experience with the owner and management has always been a positive one. I pay for my membership annually and always get a great deal. THE VALUE OF MY MEMBERSHIP IS DETERMINED BY THE COMMITMENT I INVEST AND IS WORTH EVERY DROP OF SWEAT I POUR INTO IT.

Staff are really nice. Met the owner or one of the owner's and she is superb. I used to go in the morning more than a year ago and never had a problem with the gym being crowded. I love the women's area; I'm not sure if they changed some of their equipments but some of the cardio machines could use an upgrade and the televisions. I'm rating them 2 stars because the $27.26 per month, 3-year contract they have needs improvement. I regret signing it. I had to move and have been living outside the province for over a year and have not visited this gym for a long time. I called them to cancel it with 6months left in the contract and the person I spoke with said it's not a problem and told me to send them a cancellation letter. She didn't mention anything about cancellation fees so my assumption was that it would be cancelled for free because I've already paid them over $800 and didn't want to pay $163.56 to pay off the rest. 3 weeks after I sent the letter, there was no call from them and my monthly payment was still deducted so I called them to follow up on my request and was told I have to pay off the rest of the monthly fee if I want to cancel the contract. It's my fault for signing up with them for an expensive 3 years but hopefully someone can learn from my mistake. Don't sign up with them for over a year unless they have a set cancellation fee that's worth it for you. Some gym have a set $99 cancellation fee no matter when you cancel your contract. My cancellation fee at this gym was $327.12 if I cancelled it a year ago. I learned my lesson the expensive way. I'm sure they meant well but with this contract I felt like they took advantage of me and only wanted the money instead of thinking what's good for their customer. Hopefully they can make proper adjustment to their contracts that is mutually beneficial to them and their customers. Thanks for taking the time to read my review.
