The Garage Gym: Opinions
Fantastic experience: This place will bring your savage mode in full gear lots of kick butt motivation and an at home environment where you feel welcome
Fantastic experience: Customized workouts have increased my strength a lot. The garage gym is more than a gym, it’s a community.
Fantastic experience: I visited some local gyms and they didn’t seem like a fit until I was telling one of my best friends about it and he suggested I talk with Tony Smith, owner of The Garage Gym. I replied that I had heard it was very expensive but once I talked to Tony, he hooked me up with Joe, the manager, and I actually found the price to be very reasonable considering the approach. And that’s what I liked most about it. The approach was what I was looking for. I’m already internally motivated, but I knew to keep that up I needed to have someone there keeping me accountable, pushing me to go beyond my limits to achieve real growth, and showing me proper form to maximize my effort. That’s Garage Gym.
Fantastic experience: Clean and well equipped. They are able to tune a workout to suit a variety of needs. I have gone from being strong and athletic but am now older. They have challenged and assisted me in meeting my ever changing goals.
Fantastic experience: Great facility with top notch coaching and a very supportive community. If you're looking to better yourself physically and mentally, then this is the place for you!
Fantastic experience: I joined this jem of a community after viewing their IG post about a 6 week Transformation Challenge they were offering. I’m so glad I stepped outside of my comfort zone because let me tell you… it’s been an amazing journey. The trainers and members are welcoming and super helpful. Everything you do is journaled and accessible in their app, as well as communication with your trainer. Each exercise is accessible to review for the busy days when you choose to workout at home. Daily challenges to keep you motivated and accountable. Everything is top notch!
Fantastic experience: Great gym to be apart of. The staff is very professional and go over and above to make you feel welcome and can succeed.
Thank you so much Chris! We are so happy to have you as part of our community!
Fantastic experience: Joining The Garage Gym was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I’m in the best shape of my life in my 50s and have gained a whole new level of understanding when it comes to fitness and nutrition. They have fantastic coaches who are supportive, motivating and knowledgeable. Their structured programs are ideal for people with busy lives. You don’t have to think, because they do the thinking for you. All you need to do is show up, give them an hour and reap the rewards.
Fantastic experience: 100% recommend! I love not having to create my own programing. Everything is researched and implemented by highly trained staff. Workouts are adaptable to your level and for you to succeed.
thanks so much Delanie!! we love having you
Fantastic experience: Informative website!
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym , great trainers and members always there supporting one another!!
Fantastic experience: Best decision I ever made. Lost weight ,gained energy, feel so much better.
Fantastic experience: I love the energy of the gym, the camaraderie of the people and more than anything the feeling of support no matter where you’re at on your journey.
Fantastic experience: One of the best things I have done was join this gym. Great team to work out with both members and staff!!
Fantastic experience: This is the place you want to be if your goal is to get better physically and mentally. If you let it, this gym environment will push you past all your supposed barriers and make you see you're far more capable than you thought, no matter what age, or physical condition you start with. This is the best investment you could do for yourself!
Fantastic experience: My experience at this Gym has been so very good that I am still coming here after 3 months of starting. Anybody that knows me will know that's a pretty big deal. I have been to gyms in the past and I have had two separate kinds of issues: 1) You go to a gym, you get a personal session (usually a free introductory one) and then you're on your own. For someone new (and usually self-conscious) understanding what to do and if you are doing it properly becomes challenging. 2) You go to another gym and they have a program led by an instructor, but it is usually a HIIT type place where after about a month, you may feel great but are always exhausted. Can your body handle this type of a workout in the long term? Mine can't. I tried, not very hard, but I did try. So, after all these experiences, I found this place. You come in, all nervous, and you're greeted by a friendly smile and get approached by strangers asking about you, in a very warm and welcoming way. Ooooh, maybe this is a social club more than a workout place. Then the actual workout kicks in and you realize you can actually feel pain in places you'd forgotten you used. At the end of the session- smiles, high-fives and encouragement from staff and your peers. Two weeks in, the pain fades, four weeks in, and you begin to feel like something is off on days you don't go, three months in, and people start to tell you about your new look (muscles baby!)...and I can't wait to see what happens six months in. All in all, if you're looking for love, come here, cuz baby, no one will love you more than yourself after a few months here. If you are already in love, come here, cuz you'll see a new way to live and spice up the games with all the new things your body can do. Can't recommend this place enough. Stop reading and start joining. ;)
Fantastic experience: Great GYM!!! Great atmosphere , gained so much knowledge and understanding . Every class has its own instructors to assist and encourage . Like having a personal trainer in a group atmosphere !!
Fantastic experience: By far the best facility and trainers in Windsor Essex county. If you're looking for a better Gym experience, try the Garage Gym in Amherstburg, Kingsville and Windsor.
Fantastic experience: Garage Gym is not a regular gym. It is a place where you go to reach your goals, test yourself and push your limits along side regular people. You are trained and supported by every single trainer and member working out beside you. You can be at any fitness level and the trainers work to help you meet your goals and support your needs. If you put the work in, you will feel strong, proud and accomplished no matter what kind of day you may have had. Just show up and you will test and challenge yourself every time, while having a few laughs and a lot of sweat…..there’s nothing better.
Fantastic experience: A great place to work out, feel happy and spend some time on yourself. The Garage Gym staff is amazing and are always there to help! Best gym I have ever been a part of because it’s a community.
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I’ve ever joined. I was intimidated at first because I although I have always been active, I was use to working out alone, and wasn’t familiar with the proper techniques of lifting. The people and coaches at GG quickly made me feel welcomed, comfortable, and have taken my workouts to the next level. They work with you, provide you with modifications, give you the 1:1 guidance when needed, encourage you to go heavier (when you are clearly taking the easy way out) hahaha. Overall, I look forward to my workouts and easily burn 500 calories per session and my body has transformed since starting at GG and participating in their FUEL program (nutrition). I cannot recommend this gym enough to people of all ages.
Fantastic experience: I joined the Garage Gym almost two years ago and it has been the BEST decision I have made for my health and fitness goals. I’ve been a member at multiple gyms in my life, but never have I felt like I belonged there. Like anyone really care about me or my journey. I was just another sign up. I was always on my own. This gym..The Garage Gym..is my forever gym. The minute you walk in, there’s an amazing coach who knows you by name…asks how you’re doing…how was your weekend…they care to get to know you. It’s so nice being part of a group of like minded people who only encourage one another and always want to see you succeed. Here, you’re never alone. Whether you’re a novice or a pro in lifting or fitness, the classes are geared for all levels. And the coaches are there to help everyone through every minute of the workout! Sometimes they even join in. I’ve never been one to follow through with a gym longer than a couple months…dwindling down to not going at all. Since joining The Garage Gym, I’ve been going 4-5 days a week! It’s one of my favourite places to be daily and I hate when I miss a class. I’ve made tons of gains in strength over the past two years and their fuel program has taught me so much about nutrition, which has helped my stay on track and inch toward my goals. You can’t beat knowledgeable coaches, an encouraging atmosphere and the feeling of success when you walk through the doors. You’re part of the GG Army from day one!
Positive experience: Strip mall
Fantastic experience: Amazing place to workout in person or online. Staff and trainers are friendly and supportive and they know their stuff! You become part of the Garage Gym army the minute you walk through the door regardless of your starting fitness level. Best gym I’ve ever been a part of. Highly recommend the online classes as well.

Fantastic experience: The best atmosphere with the most amazing, and passionate people around ! No matter how far you think you can go the Garage Gym shows you, you can go that much further !!
Fantastic experience: The Garage Gym Army is no joke. When you join the Garage Gym you become a part of a collection of people from many different walks of life that want nothing more than for you to be your best version of yourself. The "intimidation" is only in your mind. Big, small, weak, strong- it doesn't matter: you will still get your butt kicked and come back wanting more.
Fantastic experience: Best gym and fitness community around. I've tried all types of gyms and fitness over the years tony and his crew are in it for you!!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a fun yet challenging atmosphere. On a daily basis staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful, especially if you are recovering, rehabbing or rebuilding from an injury. They are able to give tips for modifications or provide extra support during your workout. The small class sizes provide the coach the ability to give each member more attention as well help you get to know other members. The owners take every opportunity to obtain different certifications and are passionate when it comes to programming and nutrition. I’ve taken part in both their FUEL program and 6 week challenge seeing amazing results from both, always looking forward to the next program!
Fantastic experience: Love the energy!
Fantastic experience: Deciding to join a gym in my 40’s was intimidating to say the least. That feeling quickly dissipated as everyone at Garage Gym took both the time and interest to help me adjust and feel comfortable. There is such a positive energy there and a focus on giving 100 percent which I believe is the key to everything worth doing. Their classes are challenging but effective and I can see results already. The owners and staff are extremely knowledgeable and focus on teaching you to do the exercises the right way which I believe is why results are seen so quickly. This is definitely a gym to try...and I am certain that you will never leave!
Fantastic experience: The Garage Gym provides an amazing Community of like minded people of all health and skill levels and supports mental and physical well being in equal amounts for all of it's members. It is a place to better yourself, help others, build relationships and make a difference in the world. The owners and staff are out to make the world a better place and members benefit from the infectious positivity and spirit of "Do More, Be More".

Fantastic experience: The Garage Gym cares about more than just helping you gain physical strength - it's about helping you achieve a greater self-confidence to take on any of life's challenges. They are responsive to the needs of the members, offering a variety of hours and their trainers are amazing. I highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: I am so proud to part of The Garage Gym army. Every single person in this gym is there to better themselves. There is never judgement, only positivity, encouragement and of course the push to change the “I can’t” into “hell ya I just did that”! Great gym! Great people! Even during the hardest workouts there’s smiles, with a curse here in there . Garage Gym Member FOREVER!!
Fantastic experience: I joined the garage gym a little more than a year with the intention of getting strong er physically. I had been working out on my own and I had results but I was bored of the same old routine. Not only am I physically in the best shape of my life, I am also mentally stronger than ever before. I have an army along side me everyday pushing me and supporting me to be my best in and out of the gym. I look forward to every workout because I am there not only for me but for the people that need me too. If you're looking for more than a gym, but a community of like minded individuals that want to crush life than come here and shape yourself into the person you want to be. I will never go to another gym in my life.
Fantastic experience: Tony, Dani and the entire Garage Gym team are dedicated to their clients and go above and beyond! The community they have built is hard to compete with and they continue to crush fundraising goals! I love the GG Army and would highly suggest them to anyone in Essex County!
Fantastic experience: Five years in and I am still totally addicted! The GG not only pushes us to be the best versions of ourselves physically, it has provided us with the opportunity to come together as one big family and help make a difference in our community.
Fantastic experience: This is the best fitness community in the world. You will never regret trying this place out. Once you try it I guarantee you’ll be hooked. The trainers are amazing and will help you achieve whatever your health and fitness goals are.
Fantastic experience: A one of a kind place! Great owners and trainers alike... the workouts will be sure to challenge you no matter your fitness level. If your taking the time to read this, you ought to try it out !
Fantastic experience: The Garage Gym has forever changed our family. My husband started his transformation here and continues to grow stronger and have more energy every day. Our two children enjoy the youth programming and are learning to live an active and healthy lifestyle and have also gained confidence to help them in all areas of their lives. Seeing the benefits that my family has enjoyed at the Garage Gym also inspired me to join. The balanced program has helped to increase my fitness levels and strength and even with going 6 days a week, workouts are never boring. All of these things said, the greatest benefit of joining the Garage Gym is being a member of one of the greatest communities of people: from the supportive staff, to the friendships we have formed with other members, and the leadership of owners Tony and Dani.
Fantastic experience: Great establishment with an amazing atmosphere. Great place to workout regardless of your fitness level
