646 Weightlifting Gym

Fantastic experience: Best weightlifting gym in Toronto!

Fantastic experience: You must stop here if you love the sound of dropping heavy barbells

Fantastic experience: Best Olympic weightlifting gym in Toronto Paul program is amazing thank you

Fantastic experience: Had the pleasure of meeting Tom Meg and Rae at 3Bros CrossFit. Great bunch of people, very welcoming and great coaches. I have come away feeling more comfortable around the bar and can’t wait to get back into the gym to do it all over again

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and environment to train and/or learn olympic weightlifting for all levels. Paul, the coach and owner, is approachable, knowledgeable and experienced -- you'll be in good hands with him as a coach.

Fantastic experience: Great vibes for lifting. Come support a local business!!!

Fantastic experience: Paul is an excellent coach, I have some experience but within a couple sessions he was able to clean up my technique quickly and found a ton of value in his programming especially for the cost. As a coach in athletics I highly recommend Paul as a coach due to his knowledge, experience, and atmosphere he provides in his gym

Fantastic experience: Being fitness professionals myself, I highly recommend 646 for Weightlifting.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I've ever worked out at. The coaching is top shelf and the members are all hardworking and great people to workout with. 646 is my home away from home

Fantastic experience: Great environment for weightlifting. Good coach, good equipment, good community.

Fantastic experience: Great dedicated weightlifting gym. Fun atmosphere and everything you could possibly need/want to further your weightlifting. If you're into weightlifting, there's no better place in Toronto.

Fantastic experience: Great place to lift - the owner is always helpful and the community among the members is welcoming.

Fantastic experience: This gym is fantastic! I have belonged to several expensive “executive” gyms downtown and this is a completely different and much better experience for several reasons. 1)Olympic lifting and powerlifting are technical exercises and the programs and people are exceptionally thoughtful in their approach. (This is not a “bro gym”). 2)building off the previous point, joint mobility and effective movement is at the forefront of the workouts and I have a much more holistic approach to my training than I have ever had before 3) the gym is very personal and the staff and other members were extremely welcoming and happy to help me learn. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who is interested in strength training, regardless if you are new to weightlifting, male or female, old or young. Do yourself a favour and call Paul (coach and owner) to come check it out!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, friendly people, love working out there.

Fantastic experience: I hadn't done any weight training before I found 646 Weightlifting. When I did step through the doors, I discovered not only a gym, but an excellent coach who is dedicated to the success of his athletes and a motivated, encouraging community that likes to work hard and have fun. I would highly recommend 646 Weightlifting to both seasoned athletes and beginnners alike.

Fantastic experience: Excellent training atmosphere and one of the few true olympic weightlifting focused facilities in Toronto.

Fantastic experience: Probably the best weightlifting gym you will find in Toronto. A lot of platforms, new eleiko and rogue bars, and even a cable machine for that accessory work. Flexible class and open gym hours. Programming is great, I put on 5 kilos on my squat and clean and jerk in a few weeks. A lot of experienced lifters go there too so you will get tips and pointers all the time.

Fantastic experience: The coach is polite, respectful and professional. I highly recommend take class with him. The facility are amazing. The flexible schedule help you out to be able to keep trainning and improving every class. I love this place and I dont miss a class.

Fantastic experience: Such a great place to lift. There's a great vibe when lifting in this gym. The coaching is top notch and the equipment is great. Having a dedicated weightlifting gym close to downtown, as well as a great team to train with is amazing. Great gym with a great atmosphere!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with great coaching. The space itself is well organized and clean. The coaches are friendly, informative and ready to help you succeed. The members are welcoming and warm too. Great equipment to use and to progress in your weightlifting journey. The variety of classes and scheduling helps you focus on both strength and conditioning. I would highly recommend this gym for weightlifting and beyond!

Negative experience: The equipment and facilities are high quality. It's actually really nice to be able to train with Eleiko bars and plates. It is also nice that they play old weightlifting videos on their T.V as you train. The only issue I had were open gym hours and the staff. It is definitely not worth your money to sign up for only gym hours which have a small time period for you to workout. The owner is not the warmest person to be around and doesn't seem to take much ownership with the gym. Even when signing up I didnt feel very welcome, no tour, no going over rules. I felt like more of a burden maybe because I was training on another team. If there is a problem with coming in outside of open gym hours the owner won't say anything and later will say that you took advantage over him behind your back. The 646 weightlifting team definitely gets priority and is a very big team with around 12+ members. It is definitely better to spend the extra money and train with their team. It is just a shame that a gym with high quality equipment can have a negative atmosphere for open gym.

Fantastic experience: Easily my favourite place to train when I'm in the area

Fantastic experience: One of the best places to learn Olympic Weightlifting in Toronto. Great coaching in a friendly, supportive environment.

Fantastic experience: Discovered this gem when last time I was in Toronto and I've been going back every time I'm in town. Coaching staff is very knowledgable and accommodating for drop in athletes and members are very friendly. 646 is a well equipped facility with a great atmosphere. Great place to get your workout in if your visiting Toronto. If you live in Toronto, this is a great group to train with to develop your strength and technique. Bonus, great weightlifting apparel and the best lifting straps available on site

Fantastic experience: Great space. Great group to train with.

Fantastic experience: Great facility. Great coaching. Centrally located. If you are an Olympic Lifter or aspire to be, this is the place for you.
