Best Gym in Canada

P	Phillip Prell on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've been going since late May and have enjoyed my time there. I got 4 times a week and I can do all my desired exercises. It has a combination of older (more pratical) and newer machines that provide the tools for a fantastic workout. I have been working out consistently for 2.5 years and honestly, this is my favorite gym yet! Don't let the basement location fool you, I can do my OHPs and pull ups easily (while being a 6'3 male). Special thanks to RJ Kayser for teaching me some new techniques and correcting my form and Josh Chessman who gave me a 1-min body assessment when I had an injury earlier today. Overall: Cheap, good equipment, not too crowded, and very friendly staff who are quite knowledgable (and willing to help). I would go, no BS. -Phil
M	M J on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good gym, provides free chalk, not stingy on the rules, can workout shoeless, drop weights etc. Provides area for Olympic lifting. Great spot for somebody looking to workout and stay economical. Above all if you have any issues Matt is a very reasonable guy that doesn't get unjustly frustrated when you raise an issue. I'd recommend this gym to anybody looking to have access to decent equiptment for a decent cost.
D	David Duff on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this gym. It a great atmosphere. 4 weeks ago I hired one of the house trainers TelsI. she really awesome. She's helped me progress with all of my strength and flexibility. I have nothing but good thing to say about house fitness and their trainers.
J	Jessica Weber on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Love this local gym. I don't feel intimidated working out like I have at other gyms. I have been getting personal training from Telsi for a while now and it is the best decision I could have made for myself. She is such an amazing trainer, never rushes any sessions, and has been extremely accommodating to my schedule changes (even showed up when she was sick). Very happy with my decision to go to this gym.
S	Shaquille Young (Shaderry) on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place to be! If you want to lift weights, make friends, and get results I recommend 24/7! With new ownership the gym has really improved the overall look and feel! They also have great staff, who are very knowledgeable and friendly! There's tons of space and equipment sure to suit your type of physical activity. Also many of the people there are willing to give some advice if they see that you're trying something new, so don't be afraid to ask for help. Some advice though, if you aren't used to loud noises bring earphones; It can also get intense after 5 PM, so it's better to arrive earlier than later.
K	Kev J on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ No nonsense gym downtown. Has a good selection of free weights. I like the sub terrainian feel of the place, mainly ' cause it is underground. Friendly and helpful staff.
D	Danielle Dmuchowski on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I purchased a membership but I unfortunately had to stop going. Given COVID, the ventilation was just not safe or appropriate and walking in there it was automatically muggy with the humidity of human perspiration in an enclosed space that wasn't aired out properly. There was a fan blowing (a low-cost and ineffective way to attempt to ventilate) but it was not adequate whatsoever for a fitness centre (let alone in a pandemic). Additionally, I did not see any staff sanitizing in the usual hour+ I was there; cafes wipe down tables after every customer in downtown Peterborough, and that's in an environment where people are masked and not resperating heavily, unlike the gym. Staff members were usually just sitting on workout equipment on their phones. Cash was accepted. Hopefully the gym begins to take the health and safety of its customers seriously in the future. I wanted to support a smaller gym, but not at the cost of my health and safety. Please consider another gym facility in general, but especially if you are in contact with the elderly or children. This is my honest review as someone that doesn't have any stakes in the success of the business. Despite what the response to this review was, I was there and many of those things were not happening. Please stay safe, there are other gym options out there.
S	Sarah on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This gym is a home and the members are a community. Their value statement is not a joke. They are ‘one common collective’ who values their members. I recommend House to everyone.
