Best Gym in Canada

W	Winston on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Afterburn is a well maintained, clean, and well run facility with a lot of equipment that you will not find at a regular gym. On the dragon boat training side, the paddling pool is the closest you will get to simulating practice in a dragon boat on the lake. The seats, foot rests, side of the pool/ boat and water level are exactly the same as an actual dragon boat. Afterburn is a must for competitive teams to get that competitive edge in the off season. Afterburn is also good for more recreational teams as the layout of the the pool allows for coaches to easily move around and work on paddlers individually as well as having the ability to record your team paddling and review the video right away in house at Afterburn. On the gym and fitness side, Afterburn gives teams a smaller, tight knit type of workout atmosphere promoting team bonding and cohesion. For regular members just using the gym for fitness not dragon boat team related, Afterburn has a lot of equipment that is not available at regular gyms like Goodlife such as kettle balls, prowlers, ropes, and rings.
S	Sheri Yamasaki on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I attended the Afterburn fall paddling clinic and would highly recommend this session. Andrew gave excellent feedback which helped me improve my strength training and paddling technique. The weekly videos captured our progress and the report card was very helpful in identifying areas for further improvement. The indoor pool and fitness equipment are ideally suited to dragon boat paddlers. I look forward to returning to Afterburn later this month.
A	Anne Z. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ With their indoor pool facility, Afterburn is truly a gym like none other. Their open gym with a variety of equipment caters to all kinds of athletes and the indoor pool facility makes it the best training facility for dragon boat athletes. The staff is always quite friendly and rounds out of all the reasons why it's one of the top gyms to work out in.
C	Christian Santos on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've been going to Afterburn since September 2019, and since then Andrew and the rest of the staff, have made it feel more of a family rather than just a gym. The people and the atmosphere are very motivating and encouraging. During this time of Quarantine Andrew, the owner, was very accommodating and lent weights for me to use to continue my training. !00% recommend this gym.
E	Elena Wang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As someone who had never lifted weights before, Afterburn was a positive, non-intimidating gym environment to begin. They have equipment suitable for all levels of experience & for an array of fitness goals. Andrew and Lisa are always super encouraging and accommodating. Everyone from the trainers to the members are really friendly as well, making it a great place to exercise.
P	Patrick Kyu Min on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Strongly recommend Afterburn Basics. It's the best economical way to purchase quality gym equipments. Afterburn Basics products are apparently directly imported from the manufacturer overseas, and therefore with no frills. Equipments come in surprisingly good quality. I verified it by purchasing light rack, bench, olympic barbell, adjusted dumbells, 20kg bumper plates, 20kg plates, and some more weights through afterburn basics batch 2. However, as it gets shipped from overseas, you have to anticipate some delays. Understand that overseas logistics has became really hectic during Covid-19, and suppliers have no control over it once its in transit. So, be sure to anticipate some delay, and wait patiently for guaranteed happy ending. At this price level especially during Covid-19, it is safe to assume that Afterburn is doing us a BIG FAVOUR.
T	Tim MacFarlane on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great gym for power lifters and dragon boat athletes. Run by the fabulous Andrew Liew and other great coaches. I just bought an annual membership, in addition to teams I have training there with the Rusty Dragons.
E	Eden Minichiello on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I work out at afterburn 4 to 5 mornings a week, and it’s something I look forward to every time. The equipment is awesome, the space is always impressively clean, and the community is very kind. There aren’t too many folks around at 5:30AM, but the few people I see regularly are all very sweet and fun to talk to ? To top everything off, I really love that Afterburn admin/management is really honest and open when it comes to membership sales - everything is no strings attached, no weird contracts with hidden catches like so many commercial gyms, and payment is super easy and quite flexible with the different membership plans. Love this gym & will never go anywhere else as long as I live in Scarborough!
