Fitness & Gyms in Pickering, ON

“Exactly 1 year today, February 1st at this time since I joined Crossfit Pickering! Great environment, truly a family atmosphere, caring Coaches, their effort made to ensure my movements are correct, knowledgeable and supportive if I needed to modified my WOD. Athletes are truly amazing and friendly. I have been to a lot of places but Crossfit Pickering is the best!”

“Orange Theory Fitness (OTF) marks my initiation into Canadian gyms, and I'm in love by the one-hour coach-led training sessions. As someone inherently lazy, I thrive on the motivation and guidance provided, especially with corrections to my postures. I highly recommend OTF's coach-led approach for newcomers or those apprehensive about solo gym ventures. The coaches are not only friendly but actively assist throughout each session. The diverse daily workouts keep things intriguing, fostering my commitment to a six-day-a-week routine. OTF has seamlessly integrated into my daily life, enhancing both my strength and endurance. Undoubtedly, the consistency fostered at OTF proves to be the key to success, making every penny invested worthwhile.”

“I used to come here years ago and just recently signed up again. Bill is one of the nicest gym owners I’ve met. The gym has literally everything you beee, and it’s a great atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend it more”

“F45 Pickering is a great gym with amazing and supportive staff. The 6 week challenge was a great way to get back into the gym and get into a nice routine. The workouts are fun and provide a great variety. It’s quite easy to make friends as well if you go to the same time of class. I would recommend anyone thinking of starting their fitness journey, to start at F45 Pickering!”

“Looking for a way to exercise with a smile on your face, lightness in your heart and music in your steps? This is the place I look forward to go to every week to get all of the above with a dash of joy, laughter and good company :)”

“We recently started our fitness journey with Retraine Fitness, and so far we are pleased with the experience. We've had the pleasure of working with Yousef for two personal training sessions, and they have been good. Yousef is knowledgeable, motivating, and attentive to our fitness goals and needs. He tailors each session to ensure we get the most out of the workouts, pushing us just the right amount to achieve progress without feeling overwhelmed.

Additionally, the owner, Ammar, has created a welcoming and supportive environment at Retraine Fitness. The facility is well-equipped, and looks conducive to both beginners and seasoned fitness enthusiasts. Ammar's dedication to providing a good fitness experience is evident in the gym.

Though we've only had two sessions so far, we are confident that Retraine Fitness will be instrumental in helping us reach our fitness goals. I highly recommend Yousef as a personal trainer and Retraine Fitness as a whole for anyone looking to embark on or enhance their fitness journey.”

“I have been at this location since 2016 and have had an overall great experience. Selisa, Denise & Robbie is who I see frequently during the week. All 3 are amazing with the members. Friendly, attentive & always helpful. You could not have better morning front desk staff.
Julie is great when I see her on weekends.
If I can suggest more weights for body pump class, I use the 22 pound weights for squats and there are only 4. During the week I manage to get 2 but Saturday class I cannot as there is a class prior who sets up and sets up for others, leaving weights limited no matter how early I attend class. It would be appreciated if more of these weights can be available.
Thank you again goodlife team for making this location a great experience”

“It doesn't have the necessary weight every time but it is a good place to train. It's a gym where you train on your own. Nobody guides you just the app if you want and although many times they talk to you because they have to respond to you and it is uncomfortable. It's a place where you can train. It doesn't have free weight but it's fine ?? the massage machines and more are great and I would like to see that they modernize them as they show they do in other places as I saw on social networks.”

“I love the community vibe of this club.I met the owner Mike, he welcomed me to the facility with open arms and he helped me feel comfortable right away. I would Highly recommend this place if you are new to fitness.”

“It saddens me to see some negative reviews about the Pickering location in regards to machines and cleanliness....

This place is clean! Beautifully clean. It has never had so much as a bad odor. There is ALWAYS someone cleaning (wiping machines, cleaning change room, showers, etc)

I've rarely (if ever) had to wait for a machine. It's easy enough to choose another machine or bench for a few minutes until others come available. It's never THAT busy that you have to actually wait for any machines.

I've never seen the sauna out of order (as mentioned by another reviewer).... nor have I seen machines broken for long periods of time. They seem very prompt in fixing anything broken.

My only "complaint" is the hours of this location. However, I assume that is due to the location being in the mall since the Ajax location has after-hours access.”
