Fitness FX

Fantastic experience: When I moved to Halifax a few months ago, I knew I wanted to try out FX. FX is widely talked about in the lifting community around NS because of how amazing a facility it is, so I decided to see if the rumours were true. Now that I’ve been lifting here for a while, I can confidently say that FX is the best gym I’ve ever been to. The equipment and community are unmatched by any other gym in the province, perhaps the Maritimes. And they have a powerlifting room! My FX lifts are always the highlight of my day. Highly recommend trying the place out!

Fantastic experience: Good place to workout, not crowded and very nice environment!

Fantastic experience: Was visiting for a day turned out to be an amazing experience! They got EVERYTHING you ever will need. Will be back here when I visit Halifax

Fantastic experience: Was in town for a week and needed a gym away from home. A close friend recommended Fitness FX so I thought I'd check it out. I've been on a fitness journey for the last year, and premier gyms like Fitness FX still seem intimidating to a relative newbie like me, but Sean (the owner) and Daniella met me at the counter, and were so pleasant and welcoming I was excited to give this place a try. In short, the facilities are incredible (and a far cry from the very modest, aging weight room I use at my local community centre). There are all kind of people/bodies in various stages of their respective fitness journeys and everyone I came in contact with was just plain lovely. An enviable set up for weights with lots of dumbells and every conceivable cable machine. A big selection of cardio machines, as well as large space for fitness classes, and even a dedicated room for powerlifters. This place has it all, and none of the attitude I feared might come with a gym of this quality. Anyways, I will absolutely be dropping in anytime I'm in Halifax in the future. If you're looking for a gym in Halifax, you need to check out Fitness FX.

Fantastic experience: My time at Fitness Fx was great! I did not have a day where I disliked the machines; the flow of traffic runs quite smoothly, and it's not overly busy. Overall, it was a great workout experience.

Fantastic experience: A great, friendly, open gym, with lots of machines. I picked my times for mid morning, usually, and never had to wait for a machine.

Positive experience: Great gym for serious power lifters, unfortunately there are no longer heavy bags as advertised

Fantastic experience: Fact: You’re silly if you work out anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Such an inspiring gym. From the people who workout all the way to the owner. Great people. The machines you can’t get anywhere else are just so much more elite than anywhere else in Nova Scotia.

Fantastic experience: I am disabled and in my early 50's. I did my research and found an excellent trainer and welcoming atmosphere at FitnessFX. A true no judgment environment where ppl just mind their business. I feel comfortable and welcome. I encourage anyone older or with disabilities to give this place a try. I was surprised at how much equipment was easy to use and to adjust as a disabled person. You will find something that will help you, but maybe get a trainer who can help guide you. I highly recommend Rebecca. Great staff, clean, and well maintained as well!

Fantastic experience: Extremely friendly staff, amazing equipment, best gym in Halifax!

Fantastic experience: It's an ok gym for bodybuilding overall. The downsides are some staffs were very rude and some influencers are inconsiderate with personal spaces. The equipments are generally well-maintained. Edit: The owner reached out and addressed my concerns thoughtfully. Really awesome guy who clearly cares about his business. Updating to 5 stars for him.

Fantastic experience: Very nice facility.

Fantastic experience: Great customer service and super clean facility!

Fantastic experience: Ultimately THE best gym facility in HRM hands down. My home away from home.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and really great staff.

Fantastic experience: The best gym in halifax!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with a variety of premier equipment options and a welcoming environment.

Fantastic experience: It was great to go and check out Fitness FX new place after years of being away from the city. The staff were great at welcoming me, and even allowing me to check out the new location before I signed up. Seeing Sean and some old school members made me feel at "home" again here. The new machines, mixed with the old school ones gives everyone different options to hit their goals. The new facility is bigger than the old one, let alone, closer to where I was staying. Staff is always smiling and responding to any questions that I have. If you are looking for a locally owned gym in Halifax that caters to everyone, this is the place.

Fantastic experience: In Halifax on vacation I stopped by today for a lift and was hyped with all the equipment they had. If you’re looking for a gym in the HRM you have to check them out!!

Fantastic experience: massive gym. 10/10 equipment. W

Fantastic experience: The hours 10/10 The rates 10/10 The culture 11/10

Fantastic experience: Very friendly community and staff, top notch and diverse equipment, clean facility, competitive pricing, and family owned, what’s not to love?

Fantastic experience: Awesome staff at reception, expert trainers and well maintained equipments make this place wonderful for their clients.

Fantastic experience: Honestly probably one of the best gyms in the city. The staff are wonderful and always willing to help. This was great for me cause those machines be intimidating. Their front office area is stocked with protein bars and drinks which is so convenient. There is variety in workout options and an all around great environment. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about this gym! The gym itself is very clean and well maintained and there’s a huge variety of equipment. The people are the best part. Staff, trainers, and other gym goers are incredibly kind, welcoming, and supportive. Truly a community like no other!!

Fantastic experience: Big, beautiful space with all the equipment you could possibly want! I’ve never had to wait around for space or equipment, and the facility is always very clean. Inspiring environment full of people who are working towards their goals, and fun community building events to participate in or attend as a viewer. The no contract approach to memberships is refreshing. Highly recommend FitnessFX to anyone in the Halifax area!

Fantastic experience: Definately #1 in the city. Best crew, equipment and atmosphere. I only wish it was closer to be my primary gym. I always keep a 10 pass open for some better quality training or posing.

Fantastic experience: Love that you can do drop ins, and it's not too busy! Well equipped with all the good stuff!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! I love the spacious layout, abundance and variety of equipment. The trainers and staff are friendly, knowledgable, and available for a quick chat or some advice. It is inspiring to watch the professional athletes do their workouts as well as the variety of “regular folks” getting their fitness on. The social media game of the clients is excellent and will make you never want to miss a day. All fitness levels and ages are on parade and it’s great to see. I would not hesitate to recommend this gym to any one, of any age, or fitness level, who is looking for a workout space. Friendly, open and so inspiring- this place is everything you need in a gym.

Fantastic experience: Love it here! Great people, great equipment!

Fantastic experience: Best gym HRM!

Fantastic experience: Great group of people work here, I was just in town for a few days and i was amazed! The equipment is amazing and it was super spacious! They were very helpful when i had questions and their merch is a nice addition to my collection! Definitely going to be returning whenever I’m in town, would recommend!

Fantastic experience: Best experience Specially for posing

Fantastic experience: Great Gym

Fantastic experience: Best gym. Unmatched equipment, community and staff

Fantastic experience: I had a heart issue I needed to deal with and now I am back and ready to workout again. This fitness studio is clean, well organized and just fantastic. Working with Sean was easy and I felt welcomed and comfortable. Brandon showed me how to use some machines I wasn’t familiar with and that process was great, too. I know I will reach my fitness goals at Fitness Fx. The energy at this gym is positive and motivating. I just love working out here!

Fantastic experience: Staff was nice, other gym goers were friendly and easy to get a day pass when no other gym was open during the snowstorm

Fantastic experience: Hands down the most well run gym in NS amazing employees great environment for lifters of all levels top community out of any gym you’ll find

Fantastic experience: Absolute gem of a gym. Having lived in downtown Toronto and Montreal the last few years really makes me appreciate this giant gym that has 7-10 people max working out in the morning. Amazing selection of plate loaded equipment and dumbells that go up to 180. Good gym for regular folks and massively juiced up Megatrons. Seems to attract the local bodybuilders. It's expensive but they had a good deal on for the 2 weeks I was there.

Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere & great variety of equipment, a gym for anyone.

Fantastic experience: I workout here when I come back to Halifax for the holidays. The gym is a great spot to powerlift - Super spacious place and I never have to wait to use the equipment. The staff are also very friendly! I would say the gym seems more like an influencer gym (i.e. people taking pictures of their workouts) and as a 9-5 young professional - it can be a different environment than what I am used to but that’s just something to be mindful of when working out here.

Fantastic experience: As far as Nova Scotia goes, this is by far the best gym I’ve been to yet. Everything from the layout, to the selection of equipment, atmosphere, and staff hospitality have gone beyond my expectations, all for a very reasonable price. If I lived closer this would definitely be my go-to gym, although I will still visit frequently. I highly recommend this gym to anyone, as you won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Worth every dollar. The sense of community is like no other! and of course the equipment and cleanliness is top notch.

Fantastic experience: The facility is big , not crowded, lots of different equipments. Awesome personal trainer. People are very positive and friendly. More like a community

Fantastic experience: Took a break from GoodLife to check this gym out. The equipment is much better and at a lower price, I was impressed. Change room bathrooms are a little rough but I can overlook that. Will be making the switch!

Fantastic experience: Being a member of the gym since May this year I’ve had the absolute pleasure of being in a powerlifting friendly gym with great equipment and friends and fellow lifters across the gym. Doing my second competition here since May also felt great! Yousif K.

Fantastic experience: This gym is absolutely insane! I love that all the sections (cardio, powerlifting, and machines) are divided in sections that gives you a feeling of privacy you wouldn’t get in an open concept gym. Totally recommend that you go take a peak at this facility! You won’t regret it

Fantastic experience: Fitness FX is a fantastic gym. It is SO spacious. The sense of community is strong. The staff members are passionate about training and from What I’ve experienced is that they are open to chatting about mindset, diet, training styles and are there to hype up the community in general. I love this gym because weather you are a content creator, coach, or are there to train and record, filming is welcome, which for me personally is important to track progress, develop my form and send to my online coach. It feels really safe. The equipment is awesome. SOO many great machines, a powerlifting room, posing room, boxing room, quiet back room with dumbbells, mats and slam/medicine balls, multiple squat racks, endless choices for cardio….It’s set up to train for almost anything! They also play hype music all throughout the gym. Fun perk, The separate training rooms have systems to hook up your own music. Check it out. It’s a damn inspiring place to be in.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym. As someone who has extreme gym anxiety I was supper anxious to enter my first time. I was blown away by how welcoming everyone is. Everyone at FX wants everyone to succeed in whatever their going for. Amazing machines you won’t find else where and an amazing community. Honestly the fx community is becoming a second family to me I look forward to going in and seeing everyone

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym and staff. Biggest gym I’ve been to, and I made use of as much equipment as I could before I left. Particularly enjoyed the punching bags, and having gloves available was very helpful. Just about everything you could possibly need in a gym all at one place.

Fantastic experience: I went to FitnessFX last week and can’t say enough good things about it and would highly recommend to anyone. The machines were top quality, the staff was very friendly and to me most importantly the gym was clean and sanitary. The space is way bigger than I suspected from the outside. I will definitely be going back using there day passes and depending on my gym journey I would love and thrive being a member with FitnessFX

Fantastic experience: Simply put: Fitness FX is in a league of its own. From the friendly front desk staff, knowledgeable trainers, to the abundance of great equipment you won’t find anywheres else. Locally owned and operated Sean (owner) is just a great person. How many other gym owners greet you on your way in/out by your first name and ask you how your workout went? If you are on the fence, or intimidated to go in -reach out to Sean. I guarantee you will not regret it!

Fantastic experience: This gym is a great find! I was visiting Nova Scotia and wanted a place to train and I was very satisfied. The equipment is top notch and the staff are friendly. I've seen some comments here about the locker room/bathrooms but when I visited in November 2023 they were clean and modern (including a hair dryer in the men's washroom). This is a great option for people visiting the Halifax area, especially if you have a car. (The gym's in Clayton Park, which is a short drive from downtown.) Be sure to check out their weekly passes, which are much better value for money than other gyms in town. The parking's also free, which is awesome!

Fantastic experience: If you want to workout at a place that is invested in your success, has great equipment, staff and an encouraging community Fitness FX is the place to go! That all starts at the top with the owner Sean who sees you as more than just a number. He is creating an amazing environment where anyone from beginners to the most experienced bodybuilders/powerlifters can thrive. Since I’ve joined he’s been an awesome encouragement and support as I work towards my training goals. Then you have Brian, Austin, Ally and the rest of the staff at the front desk who are always asking what the workout for the day is or answering any questions you might have. Finally the support within the community is unmatched. It doesn’t matter if you are in there trying to loose weight or get ready for a body building show people see and acknowledge the hard work you are putting in!

Fantastic experience: Love the environment & equipment at Fitness FX. It’s different than the other gyms I’ve been to around here & I always have great workouts! On top of that, the owner is super nice and I love the fact that I was able to shoot content in the gym. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to take their training to the next level, get around other like minded people or just have a safe space to create content.

Fantastic experience: First time at the new Diggs but it didn't disappoint, large gym with alot of great equipment. It doesn't matter where this gym is it always feels like home to me. The best gym in the maritimes, hands down.

Fantastic experience: I just love the ambiance. Everyone is respectful and helpful and lots of equipment to choose from.

Positive experience: The lady at the reception was indifferent and unwilling to talk much or provide much explanation, but the facilities and environment are fairly good.

Fantastic experience: Sick gym, alot of top end training equipment. Couldn't ask for a better training environment. Highly recommend checking it out!

Fantastic experience: Fitness Fx is the nicest gym East of Toronto! Top of the line equipment, great location and friendly & knowledable staff. Very happy to have Fitness Fx as my home gym!

Fantastic experience: Sean has an incredible facility and the staff is just wonderful. This facility is probably the best facility out east. This gym is definitely worth stopping by and visiting.

Fantastic experience: Well its been many yrs since Ive ran my hands across the old steele that laid the floors of the oldest Mecca. Recently I dawned the floors of the Mecca once again, running my hand down the dumbell rack, the smell of the Old Steele, the flash of memories that came soaring back reminded mw of the latenights, early mornings, the preps, the records that were broke. It was a humbking trip down memory lane. The new location still has that Old School feeling with a New School twist. It was chest day so I hit all the old dependables and through in some work with a few new pieces. I shoved around some 300's and pushed through some 400's. It was nice to go back to where it all began and am looking forward to droppin in again.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, a bit pricey but has good student and combined discounts, would consider purchasing a membership in the future

Fantastic experience: Loved the gym. Atmosphere was so supportive and the equipment selection was top tier. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility, great staff and lots of variety. Fitness FX has everything you need to obtain your goals whether your athlete training for an upcoming season or a machinealohic - Fitness FX has what you covered.

Fantastic experience: If anyone asked me which gym is the best one in the HRM I would have to say Fitness FX.From when they were located on Quinpool Rd to changing locations on Lacewood Dr. Sean is tremendous owner and person, his staff is top notch and the equipment is fantastic! 5/5 I would highly recommend this gym to anyone

Fantastic experience: Love the bootcamp classes at Fitness FX by Erin & Ryan! Super knowledgeable, encouraging & personable! Always leave the classes feeling like I’ve made gains all while having some fun! Definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Very welcoming, the door staff was nice. The equipment was top quality. The machines were very diverse and there was plenty of space and the lighting room was a real bonus to the aesthetic.

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym in Halifax. A must go if you’re a local or just visiting on holiday and need to get your gym fix. Also offer amazing pricing!

Fantastic experience: i’d give fitness fx a 10000/5 if i could. i worked out here for about 4 months and i joined a family that i never knew could exist in a fitness community. the staff are supportive, caring and always willing to help no matter the circumstances. the equipment is beyond amazing and i’m counting down the days till i’m able to go back. the facility is huge! has everything you could possibly need. i usually go in the mornings and not kidding you there are no more than 6 people in there at a time, can’t get that anywhere else!!
