Fitforever: Opinions

4.6/5 (172 Opinions)
Marcus Smith 9 months ago

Positive experience: One suggestion - the Asian lady who works weekday mornings, she’s very nice and friendly, but she put the music on SO LOUD. I’m pretty sure most people at the gym prefer to listen to their own music while working out, so having the background music blasting is kind of distracting. For this very reason I even bought some expensive noise cancelling headphones on Black Friday, but to my disappointment, I can still hear the gym music through my own music even with noise cancelling on. I haven’t noticed this issue with any other staff, so if the owner can kindly pass the message to the sweet lady, I’ll happily change my rating to 5 stars.

Cassandra Vandewater 1 year ago

Negative experience: So many things suck about this gym. First off they never have the AC on, it’s so hot. Secondly, majority of their machines don’t work! There’s so much equipment everywhere and half of them don’t work. Lastly, it’s dirty.

Fitforever

Hey Cassandra, sorry to hear about your bad experience. Please email [email protected] to see how we can improve your experience.

Dia Jane 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is pretty underrated! They have so many great machine’s including smith machine, leg press, lots of upper and lower. Only thing I would say is that the cardio machines are a little old and feel a bit wobbly sometimes but everything works nonetheless. Prices are extremely reasonable! Free parking is a bonus too

Fitforever

Yay! Glad you had a great experience. As a local gym, we try our best to provide equipment that can give our members a good workout sweat. There's a parking lot at our gym and you can just register your license plate for free 2 hours! There's also an abundance of free street parking nearby. Appreciate your 5 star informative Google review Dia Jane!

Kelly Liu 1 year ago

Negative experience: The abductor machine has had the issue since the first day I signed up a couple months ago, it won’t go into the first hole no matter how hard I tried, resulting in users not being able to exercise in full range of motion. I’ve reported this problem to the front desk people multiple times over the past months, and nothing has been done about it. I’m honestly a little disappointed, feels like they don’t take my feedback seriously. Just because it’s not completely broken down, they don’t bother fixing it…

Fitforever

Hey Kelly, Thank you for your feedback. I will notify our Fixer guy asap about this issue and see what he can do. Thank you.

Areef Khan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to the gym for about a month now, I injured my shoulder during my workouts, Lisa was really helpful in understanding my situation and helped us out with pausing/transferring my membership, would definitely recommend the centre as is economical and Lisa is a great personal trainer to have if you’re looking to get that!

Fitforever

That is Awesome! We will for sure let Lisa know she's doing a good job as a Kinesiologist/Personal Trainer!

Hilary McKee 1 year ago

Matthew Magbanua 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Got a gym membership here recently, and I already feel like I got my money’s worth! Gym is relatively quiet and all the employees and members are respectful. For $40/month (cheaper than basically every other gym in Vancouver) I feel like it is well worth the cost; sign-up was seamless, and the gym is straightforward. The gym itself is a little worn down but is very functional and well-maintained. The huge skylight and separate areas make the gym feel more open and expanded despite being inner-city in an older building. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a local gym that doesn’t want to pay $80/month just to work out. The hours also work well, being open as early as 5:30am and usually closing around 10pm.

Fitforever

Hey Matthew, thank you so much for this detailed google review! We always do the best we can. HEY MATT! CONGRATS ON BEING OUR MONTH OF AUGUST WINNER FOR A FREE TUB OF PROTEIN! Come on in and show our staff this google review reply and choose the Vega tub protein of your choice!

Marzol 3 years ago

Negative experience: I was working out here for over a year. Staff were very friendly, good vibes from everyone. I was so happy until someone stole my wallet from my locker and started making huge purchases until my credit card company notified me and locked the card. Even though the entrance to the locker room is cover by CCTV, staff were unable to help me, not even querying the people on the CCTV footage if they noticed any suspicious activity. I’m pretty sure it isn't the first time that someone’s belong were stolen and no action was taken. :’(

Fitforever

Hey Marzol, thank you for your Google response. I am sorry you have to deal with this burglary. Unfortunately our security cameras only aim at outside the change rooms/bathrooms because having cameras inside is a privacy issue. It is hard to question everyone that goes in and out as it's a high volume gym with several women going in and out. If you'd like to come back to the gym, please email me at [email protected] and I would like to offer you a deal or something for free. Thank you.

Tysone L 3 years ago

Positive experience: Good variety of machines, they are pretty dated. A lot of out of order machines.

Fitforever

Hey Tysone! Sorry numerous machines were out of order when you went. We actually scheduled the handyman to come last week and he was able to fix most machines. We are still sourcing a part for the bench press machine but we have 2 so the other one works. One of the cables also snapped so we are waiting for the new cable to be ordered in. Otherwise, everything else was fixed and works again! Hope to see you again at the gym!

Hey Jordan! Thank yoy for your feedback. We currently have 3 stair master machines- 1 modern and 2 older ones. I will look into new stairmaster machines!

Justin Majta 3 years ago

Negative experience: Haven’t been here since before the pandemic and just noticed they rebranded, increased their price from 20.99 to 40.99 without notice and as such charged my account for the past 17 months. Went to cancel in person and was given the run-around. The manager refused to give any refund or take accountability. Was offered a “new”rate of 20.99 but I don’t trust these people and their unethical business practices! Avoid this place!

Fitforever

Hey Justin, thank you for your Google review. I have explained several times that you signed up with FitForever gym which is long gone now and we are Olympus Fitness centre. Completely different company. Our rates are not even $40.99 monthly, they are $49.99 monthly. The fact that it took you 17 months to realize, and I offered a cheaper than average rate even though it was not our fault, but you still gavr us a one star clearly shows you did not understand the situation. Sucks that we are taking the hit for it. Oh well.

Lucas Hoggard 3 years ago

Negative experience: Was pretty good until there was more broken/ outdated machines and that ones that worked. Seems like every day a machine breaks down. The front desk attendant says the owner doesn't care until it's completely unusable. My leg caught stuck in the machine because the pin is broken. Loose bolts on the new benches. Pathetic

Fitforever

Hey Lucas, thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately all 3 handyman were unable to fix the machines so the next step is to trash them. However, members have requested I keep trying to find new handyman to fix them as it's their favorite machines. I wish I was a handyman myself but I am not so I have to adapt to their schedules. I will trash them though as to not make fake promises that I will fix them.

Richard B 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is a gem in East Vancouver, it's right off of commercial drive, kind of tucked away behind a grocery store. I've worked out here many times, through using classpass for gym sessions. This is a real gym, not one of those fake community center gyms where there is absolutely no gym energy. There's 3 levels, upstairs cardio, main floor weights, botttom floor fitness room and lockers. I like this gym because there's a big variety of weights and it's not too packed when I go in the mornings. Also, the staff here is sooo friendly, and I'm new so I appreciate that. THe gym is clean, and organized. Definitely plan to come back here again again.

Fitforever

Hey Richard! Thank you for your awesome google. We are so glad to hear this! Looking forward to seeing you more at the gym :)

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with three floors split into cardio, weights and yoga. I've been going to this gym for 5+ years and love it – the new management have made it such a welcoming space! Convenient location, friendly staff, never crowded, great price and a relaxed atmosphere. The southern-facing wall is floor-to-ceiling windows that let in lots of natural light. Great gym!

Thank you for your google review Andrew! For sure the gym is a non- judgement, non racist, non sexist, an environment where EVERYONE is welcomed.

Fantastic experience: Great little gym that covers all the essentials of weightlifting and cardio equipment. Even has a studio downstairs for boxing, yoga, etc. Staff are friendly and proactive in keeping the gym clean. The equipment is a bit old but they do the job. Not an issue with me but may be for others. Best thing is it doesnt get super busy in the mornings and nights like at other gyms.

Fantastic experience: Best Gym in East Van hands down. Very friendly and caring staff. The new management is great, always open to give you the best deal. The gym is always clean, with lots of machines and room to exercise. I'm happy to be a member and support this local business.

Fantastic experience: There’s a lack of gyms in the East Van area. Olympus is a well placed fitness center- right at Commercial Dr and 1st Ave. It’s got a decent selection of free weights and machines. The staff is very nice and the protein shake station is reasonably priced. AJ who works the main desk is always upbeat and positive. I’ve been a regular of this gym for about 10 years and I recommend this gym.

Fitforever

Hey Kellan! So awesome to hear you've been a member here for so long. For sure we don't plan to raise our smoothie prices so you can keep enjoying them!

Fantastic experience: I have been going here for years and can honestly say that since the change in ownership and subsequent rebranding to Olympus Fitness, the cleanliness and overall environment of the gym has drastically improved. They also offer a great range of equipment and friendly customer service.

Fitforever

Hey Maaike! Thank you so much for this google review. We do have our staff clean every hour on their shift now AND hired an external company to do deep cleaning at least once a month@ I am so glad it's clean!

Positive experience: I have been working out at this gym for a couple decades now, through various owners and management regimes. I have been doing the gym thing for over 40 years, so have a lot of experience to draw from, in making comments about Olympus. I have to say that I love working out here. The staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful. There is a lot of equipment; a good mix of free weights, squat racks, machines, etc.There is lots of space, so not often crowded or waiting for equipment. The new team is diligent about keeping the gym clean, which I am very appreciative for. The location and price are great too. In closing, I highly recommend Olympus Fitness Centre.

Fitforever

Hey Clancy! Love your review. Thank you for your kind words from experience. Feel free to let our staff know if we missed a spot. We will gladly make sure this is a clean, safe, and environment for you at the gym!

Fantastic experience: Love the (sort of) private back room with the solo squat rack, and the huge downstairs space. Staff is friendly too!

Fitforever

Hey Jono! The back room is awesome eh?? You can drop weights in there and we can open the garage door in the back during summer to let some fresh air and sunlight in!
