National Gym & Fitness Centre Inc

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym with all the equipment you will need to be in the best shape. The owners are kind and do care about their clients!! The sauna and showers add the perfect touch.

Expérience fantastique: Good place, all kind of exercise equitmwnt there.

Expérience négative: I had a very disappointing experience at this facility, which I feel compelled to share. From the outset, there was a noticeable lack of customer service and professionalism. The representative I spoke with over the phone was rude, and I was taken aback by the request to provide credit card information over the phone. This felt highly unprofessional and gave the impression of a security risk, which is concerning when considering a membership. Upon arriving at the facility, I was surprised to find it nearly empty, with no one at the front desk to greet me. The lack of basic customer service etiquette and the absence of staff left a negative impression. Additionally, after reading through other reviews, I was perplexed by the business's response to negative feedback. Instead of addressing concerns in a constructive way, the response seemed overly defensive, even threatening legal action against members. If the feedback was truly inaccurate, a more appropriate response would have been an apology and an effort to connect with customers, not an aggressive rebuttal. Given my experience and the overall atmosphere at this gym, I cannot recommend it. There are many other gyms that offer more competitive pricing, a welcoming environment, and a strong sense of community. While I won’t name them here, I encourage potential members to explore their options.

Expérience positive: Really good gym. Loses one star because they usually don’t use the ac unless it’s super hot. Open windows aren’t the same and create an uncomfortable environment to work out in.

Expérience négative: Why is your profile on 3.5 review ? Are you available on virtual Assistant ?

Expérience fantastique: It's a great gym, has everything you need, decent amount of benches near the free weights which go up to 150lbs and there some great, well-maintained machines as well (Hack Squat, Flat and Incline Machine presses etc.). Never had any issue with cleanliness or clutter, and the staff I've met have always been polite.

Expérience négative: 0 STARS. IF I COULD GIVE 0 STARS THIS WOULD BE THE PERFECT SPOT. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GYM BY ALL MEANS. THIS GYM IS INFESTED BY MULTIPLE INSECTS, AS THE GYM OWNER DOESN’T CLEAN ANYTHING WHATSOEVER. Alongside the BUGS and filth inside the gym, THERES ANIMALS! YES ANIMALS, they tend to come inside the facility because the gym owner doesn’t turn on the A/C and fans and results to opening doors and windows making it uncomfortably hot. NOT ONLY IS THERE AN ISSUE WITH THE GYM ITSELF BUT THE WOMEN at the front desk (SANDY) has no sense of respect when speaking to a customer and is never upfront with you about membership prices as she tends to add randomly fees. In conclusion, I would STRONGLY URGE everyone who values a clean and professional environment for their workouts to STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS GYM.

Expérience fantastique: Me gusta empezar air al GYM ago un poco de ejercicio pero me gustar cambiar mi forma de vida

Expérience fantastique: I love this place, it's like a second home to me. I *never* wait for a machine here. I love that the ladies section is on the second floor with big windows that let in a lot of light in the day. It's a great space to come and focus on your workout.

Expérience fantastique: fantastic gym with excellent equipment and a clean, well-maintained environment. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. It’s perfect for anyone who prefers working out independently. Highly recommend it for a great fitness experience!

Expérience positive: I love that this is not a chain gym and that it has a sauna. The gym itself is ok, I know a lot of people have a problem with the woman who owns it, but she seems nice enough. The only problem for me is the price, it's expensive! so sadly will have to find a cheaper gym when my membership expires. I'm really going to miss the sauna as there's nothing better after a workout.

Expérience négative: Horrible place, very high priced. Unprofessional behaviour from the receptionist. There are way better gyms in the area like good life , fit4less or Humber College which are better and at a cheaper price. Avoid this gym at all costs.

Expérience fantastique: Good management

Expérience fantastique: Hello, I have a question, The second floor, which is for women only, has the same equipment as the first floor?

Expérience fantastique: Been a customer for a while now, good equipment, consistently clean. Staff is friendly and helpful, would recommend.

Expérience fantastique: great gym! always clean and nice staff.

Expérience négative: Never knew I bought a zoo membership

Expérience négative: I recently visited this gym, and it was an absolute disaster. The facility is overrun with animals—yes, animals! Dogs, cats, and even stray birds were wandering around while I was trying to work out. It felt like I was in a zoo rather than a place to get fit. To make matters worse, the gym owner clearly has no interest in cleanliness or maintenance. The equipment was filthy, covered in fur and dirt, and it was clear that the place hadn't been cleaned in ages. The whole experience was unhygienic and unpleasant. I would not recommend this gym to anyone who values a clean, professional environment for their workouts. If I could give this place a 0 stars I would. STAY AWAY!

Expérience négative: Please stay away from that place , they are liers, please stay away, big time fraud,

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in Humberwood

Expérience positive: Pros: not crowed People are friendly No line ups or equipment hogs Clean Cons: price Weekend hours

Expérience fantastique: National gym and fitness is a gem. There’s a women's gym upstairs that has a lot of great equipments such as smith machine, squat rack and so many weights and you can still access the downstairs gym. Sandy is an amazing manager, very understanding. Honestly the gym is more than worth it if you like to work out in peace. Thank you for providing a safe and productive environment to work out ❤️

Expérience fantastique: Great place to do your workout. Not crowded.

Expérience fantastique: Nice

Expérience fantastique: Gym is so nice and amazing . Staff is very nice and helpful . I joined first time ,they describe work of every machine to me .One of the things I appreciate most about Gym is the community. I've met several other members who are friendly and supportive, and it's been great to connect with like-minded individuals. Overall, I'm impressed with the facility and the services provided.

Expérience fantastique: Great environment

Expérience négative: Very expensive much more than even goodlife fitness lol in my review reply she is saying it’s 490 a year but when I went in to subscribe they were giving 270 for 3 months false claims online

Expérience négative: Pros 1) Not very busy (probably cuz of the cons mentioned below) Cons 1) Price (100$ per month, 75$ per month with a three month plan) (price is subjective, but it is one of the more expensive gyms compared to nearby competition) 2) equipment isn't well maintained (note to the operator: please reinvest back into your business by maintaining your equipment and facility.) 3) Customer service (Note to the operator: Please don't feel attacked by customer feedback. Use that opportunity to improve your facility. Your customers and your bank account will thank you.)

Expérience négative: They are nice to you when signing you up but are extremely rude the following week. They feel everybody who enters the gym is conning them and using somebody else's card to enter. They become extremely antagonistic to everyone who enters gym. Guys pls take an online course on customer service etiquette! There are good people in this world too, Expensive for the quality of machines and cleanliness Terrible customer service, and the front lady is exceptionally bad at handling 100+ per month customers, almost like she doesn't want anyone to go there...

Expérience positive: I posted a review 4 years ago giving a 1 star review. I was a customer a long time ago, and did not have the best experience. 4 years later I've heard good things about the gym and the owner so I've changed my opinion on this gym. It is a great community facility and well maintained

Expérience fantastique: National Gym is the most amazing gym I’ve personally ever been to. The best equipment, the best services, the most cleanliness, the newest workout machines always ready to use and so, so much more! The staff is so nice, always ready to help. I just love it! The members are also so welcoming, you’ll fit right in!! Judgement free zone any time of day. Absolutely perfect for all!

Expérience négative: Very expensive gym

Expérience fantastique: Nice gym, amazing place to work out nice equipment. Brand new cardio machines , very heavy duty with lots of quantity free weights and best plate loaded and much more equipment. In bonus gym have hot sauna and upstairs also ladies private gym. Best management.I love this gym.

Expérience négative: Worst

Expérience négative: Silownia bez rewelacji wokół sami ciapaci

Expérience positive: Good

Expérience négative: Expensive gym membership … go run at home bros

Expérience positive: Same old equipments in ladies section

Expérience fantastique: Nice gym ,adequate equipments and mostly not much congested.

Expérience négative: Receptionist is not good , they don’t even answer questions you have about joining .

Expérience fantastique: Great gym has great machines and always never to crowded

Expérience fantastique: Peaceful and amazing workout environment.... Going there since more than 1 year.

Expérience négative: Was looking to switch gyms so I called them up. Front desk lady is whack and rude. I asked to inquire about memberships and she cut me off and hung up without offering help because she was “busy doing something”

Expérience négative: I'm ashamed to say these people are very stingy. They turn off the AC and fans during summer. It is suffocating working in the gym. This must be reported to Health Canada for their negligent behaviour. On top of this why charge high fees $75+$20 card fees per month? What for do we pay such fees if you treat customers so poorly?

Expérience négative: I started out at this gym 15 tears ago. The equipments are still the same, the only thing that’s different is the monthly fee. All these 5 star ratings gotta be fake. Same rude lady at the front. No privacy not even in the bathroom.

Expérience fantastique: Great place to work out. Never over crowded like the big name gyms and every member is friendly. Great mom and pop gym. Highly recommend.

Expérience négative: Stay away from this gym. Horrible individuals. They are nice to you when signing you up but are extremely rude the following week. They feel everybody who enters the gym is conning them and using somebody else's card to enter. They become extremely antagonistic to everyone who enters gym. Guys pls take an online course on customer service etiquette! There are good people in this world too.

Expérience négative: Expensive for the quality of machines and cleanliness. Terrible customer service, and the front lady is exceptionally bad at handling 100+ per month customers, almost like she doesn’t want anyone to go there… The price alone for the quality as said before makes this a bad pick anyway for your fitness needs and as much as I hate planet fitness, this is is literally worse then plant fitness.

Expérience fantastique: This is the best gym i have been to in my 2 year gym experience, this gym is not busy at all and has all the necessary equipment for training would recommend to anyone looking for a gym that offers privacy. The receptionist lady is so kind and helpful too.

Expérience fantastique: The gym is spacious and well-lit, with plenty of equipment available for a variety of workouts. The cardio machines are in excellent condition, and the weight area is always clean and organized. The locker rooms are also well-maintained and stocked with all the necessary amenities. One of the things I appreciate most about Gym is the community. I've met several other members who are friendly and supportive, and it's been great to connect with like-minded individuals. Overall, I'm impressed with the facility and the services provided.

Expérience fantastique: Nice place to train hard

Expérience fantastique: Good

Expérience fantastique: Amazing place to work out great people

Expérience positive: Prices are a little high but a good gym

Expérience négative: Old machines and not suitable for every age and height group but still expensive.

Expérience positive: Hours for a gym is not for the working person with a family.

Expérience négative: For about a 1-2 years the gym has been telling me that they will extend their time to 10pm but they have still not done it. I have left the gym for that reason, the hours of operation are not suitable.

Expérience négative: The lady at the front is very rude , i lost my card and went here to get new on Sunday during office hours but no one was at reception , so i called the posted contact number and she said come back later i am not at the office today , moreover she didn’t allow me to workout in-spite of having gym membership if she is not in the office during office hours who’s problem is that ? Nobody has the time to drive twice for no reason , very unprofessional behaviour . They charge 74 $ including tax if you take one month membership please don’t waste your time and money

Expérience négative: I had the worst experience at this gym and the lady who sits at the front made it worse. She will interfere in anything. If you are doing exercise, she will come and say this is not how you do!! Like she is the trainer there. (How funny). Or if you are using the treadmill and you are running more than 20 minutes, she will come and say we don’t allow running more than 20 mins. Moreover, if you entered the gym and you got an emergency call and you have to leave and you decide to come later to complete your workout. She will say we allow one-time entry per day. How rubbish is all this!! Please save your time, money and energy from this gym. She has no manners and they charge you around $60+ tax and card fee on top of that. It’s more than 3x the fee of the other gyms like planet fitness, fit for less.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym ever, feels like a family. I rarely have to wait for equipment and everything works. Met so many cool people too. The owners are helpful and extremely nice . love this place

Expérience fantastique: The gym is easily accessible and has many equipments allowing for an efficient workout. The prices are on the higher end but for the quality of the gym, it's worth the price. The owner and the customers and friendly. The gym has good maintenance and provides a great environment, especially during the pandemic.

Expérience fantastique: One of best gym in area , personally if someone has real goal or want to prep professionally this gym is good. Wide range of machine to hit each and every part of body. Best thing never too busy so it’s help me complete my workout at time.

Expérience fantastique: National gym is my favourite gym ever. I like brand new all different type of cardio machines and all strength equipment and my favourite areas Free weights from 5 Lbs to 200 Lbs. All the best and no wait for machines to workout. Best clean and safe place to work out during COVID-19. Best management.

Expérience fantastique: Best place for workout .. clean and well maintained

Expérience fantastique: I really like the gym, as it has brand new machines and very quite environment. Not over crowded. Highly recommend to people who love exercise, but did not find the right gym to do so.

Expérience fantastique: Good gym with all the necessary machines and weights. The best part is that I always get to use to weights I need without waiting as there are plenty of weights.

Expérience fantastique: Good equipment which is always available to use.

Expérience positive: I’ve been coming to this gym consistently for a while now & thought I’d write a review. It’s a nice gym, usually not too busy, lots of weights, and has a cardio theatre. I would give a higher rating but sometimes there are issues with getting into the gym early in the morning. I prefer to go to the gym early mornings around 6-7am. The gym is suppose to be open at 5am, but occasionally, I feel a little too often sometimes you’ll wake up early, make your way to the gym and find that the entrance is locked. It is hard to get a hold of someone over the phone to open the doors a lot of the times, it can be annoying since you are ready for a workout before going to work or starting your day, but end up having your time wasted. Cleanliness could be a little better at this gym. Mirrors need a wipe and weights are scattered everywhere. Some equipment could use an update. Other than that decent gym to go to.

Expérience fantastique: My first experience with Gym and have not been disappointed !!! I train here about 5-6 times a week and find the consistent positive trainers, awesome music and participants who take class and create a perfect workout environment. Private gym that feels more personal. Highly recommended

Expérience fantastique: Best gym ever, feels like a family. I rarely have to wait for equipment and everything works. Met so many cool people too. The owners are helpful and extremely nice . love this place

Expérience fantastique: Good gym for the price. The gym has everything one needs to burn fat and build muscle. Also the gym doesn't get too full so you can get through your workouts smoothly!

Expérience fantastique: Positive: Communication , Quality Been going here for around 4 months and what I can tell you is that the people at this gym are really friendly and the staff is great. All around good experience.

Expérience fantastique: I joined this gym recently,believe me this is what gym should be like. Other big franchises are just overrated. Quite/clean/equipment is top notch.

Expérience fantastique: Everytime I go here the equipment I wanna use is always free and ready to use, which is great. This gym has a variety of dumbbell weights which range from 5 to 200 lbs and many plates for the barbels. Squat, bench and the deadlift area are free 90% of the time. The gym is also clean and well maintained. I have no complaints about this gym.

Expérience positive: Good

Expérience négative: The gym suppose to open but its closed

Expérience négative: I have been trying to contact them for a few days and idk why but no one anwer's the phone

Expérience fantastique: I've been a member for almost 10 years. Facility is perfect. Always clean and sanitary with strict rules. Plus: -Variety of equipment -Never packed -Helpful staff Beats any mainstream gym in the area hands-down!

Expérience fantastique: No appointments, not busy, and essentials : bench, squat & deadlift are free a majority of the time. If you’re a person that wants to lift in a relaxed, un-rushed environment this is the place for you.

Expérience fantastique: Best of the best gym FULL SAFETY AND REGULAR SANITATION I personally recommend this gym to all my gym buddies if you want safe environment for your workouts Moreover no waiting in line for dumbells and machines. Very friendly staff specially the manager she always treat her customers as their family members.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent gym, never seen any crowed there

Expérience fantastique: NYC gym all machines working gud

Expérience fantastique: EXCELLENT GYM WITH PROPER COVID PROTECTION

Expérience négative: The lady at the front desk try to charge more money out of me by creating false information. Diassapointing.

Expérience positive: Love this gym! Quiet and not crowded at all. However, I usually use the second floor, and the barbell bar there is sort of broken. It's not safe to use so I hope they will change it soon as I use it for deadlifts, overhead press, overhead squat, and bench press. The barbell bar is not screwed properly, so I would always have to make sure that it's 'screwed' enough to not fall off. Overall, this gym is awesome!

Expérience fantastique: I am a member of National Gym & Fitnesses Centre since long time. I always like everything mean best machines, clean environment and welcoming staff. I really like second floor Ladies Private Gym and clean Sauna and showers. I Like main floor mens and women’s gym too.

Expérience fantastique: There is no lines to use the equipment. Workers are very friendly and helpful. Great prices for all students.

Expérience fantastique: One of the best gym in our area,

Expérience fantastique: Great gym with awesome facilities..

Expérience positive: Good little gym. Owner/manager lady that is always there is very nice

Expérience négative: Lady needs to stop nagging about lifting weights off the floor that are not yours,you have a business if you dont want to lift the weights up, well then hire someone. Stop being lazy and conduct yourself properly for this business, and no we are not responsible for picking up OTHERS WEIGHTS do not play this as if im not picking up my weights it OTHERS WEIGHTS that they yell at us about im not responsible for ANYONES Weights except myself, ohh and by the way nice fake reveiws. LOL (This is a updated response to the Owners response)

Expérience négative: The facility is very old and unclean. There is also a weird smell at the first floor. Would not recommend. Equipment are super old and the treadmills are not safe to use at all. Avoid at all cost

Expérience négative: Best business motto ever. "We don't need the business." Someone please tell me I'm still in Canada? They mop the floors while you workout. I'm sure its safety risk aside from the brutal smell from the old mop they use. The posted closing time of 11pm or 10pm do not apply at this gym they turn off the lights 45mins early. After complaining about the safety issue the owner and staff refuse that they are doing anything wrong. I forgot to mention they do not have a first aid kit on hand for the steep price you are paying. Rude and obnoxious owners resort to SPYING watching the gym cameras at home and then come into the gym yelling at clients for not putting away a simple dumbbell. Probably why this failing gym has been up for sale so many times. All in all the women OWNER needs to get her attitude in check. If you really doing so good get properly trained staff so you don't have to stand there watching everyone. So what if no one is interest in buying your gym when you list it for sale every year. I don't need your crappy attitude. Update: Went back nothing has changed.... Was offered a discount to give a 5 star rating meaning al the 5 stars reviews are fake lol. Farlo

Expérience négative: After being a client of this gym for over 7 years. They have finally lost me as a customer. Every single year the rates have increased. I have every single receipt to show for it as well. I came in to renew my membership and was charged an even higher price than the year prior even after showing last year’s receipt I was told a small “discount” could be made if I paid cash. Very distrustful business practices. The increase in membership fees were not my problem, it was the integrity and care shown to such a long term client of the gym. I do not recommend this gym to anyone as for many hours as well there is no supervision within the premises either. Very unsafe. I am truly insulted having also referred many clients to the gym over the year, that this is the treatment I have received. I am not the same scared little high schooler who could be taken advantage of anymore. Stay away

Expérience fantastique: I moved to the area two years ago. I had been going to Planet Fitness for almost a yea but I got tired of the crowds and waiting to use equipment. I had seen National Gym many times while driving by but never went to check it out. Actually, I did a google search and was turned off by the negative reviews, so that’s the reason why I didn’t bother to look into it any further. I joined for 6 months back in November after my friend recommended National Gym to me. I’m just writing this review to express my complete satisfaction with this gym. I’m able to go in very early (5am) to get a workout done before work. Even during evenings (around 7pm) I never have to wait for equipment. Their strength machines are really fantastic. The cardio section is good enough to get the job done. Their free weight section is spacious and I don’t have to wait for dumbbells…THIS IS REALLY FANTASTIC! The bathroom/shower/locker/sauna area is also very clean. I recommend this gym to anyone, whether a senior, student, or a bodybuilder. It’s got everything including flexible membership plans…you could do a 1/3/6 month membership or a year. I want to go on record and say that the staff have been very polite – contrary to what is written in many of these reviews. I just come in, scan my card, and sometimes get a “hi how are you?” or “have a nice day.” I’ve made a few friends at the gym, and some of them have been going here since 1998. WOW. I must say that they look very young and fit for their age. I’m just writing this to say that I’m glad I found this gym and I’m glad that it’s become a part of my daily routine. Absolutely worth the money and it’s closer to my house than planet fitness (my wife encourages me to walk over, but I only do that when I want to impress her a little bit). National Gym might not be the Conrad or Hilton of gyms but considering that we’re talking about Rexdale, it’s pretty damn close enough. I wish I joined earlier. Fantastic atmosphere!

Expérience fantastique: I recently got a 3 month membership at this gym, and I totally plan on extending it! I had been feeling really stressed, frustrated and groggy at home. With two daughters, things can get hectic, no doubt. I needed an outlet to help me cope with all of that, and this is where National Gym comes in. One thing to note, I had not been to a gym since October, 2012. I had went to Humber from 2015-2017 and once again, never used their gym facilities. I never considered myself a gym person, but times have been a bit rough, and I decided it was time to find a gym to go to. National Gym is conveniently located a 5 minute walk from my apartment. I have seen the gym numerous of times in the nearly 6 years I've lived in Rexdale, but never once went inside, until recently, of course. The gym is great. There's a homey feeling to it. It's never loud, it's never packed, even during peak hours. I really like this aspect. The gym's management are very nice people. Welcoming and accommodating. The gym has two floors; a main floor where men and women can work out alongside each other, and an upstairs section for strictly women only. This is really unique and fantastic at the same time, as there are some women that simply do not feel comfortable working out in front of men, for their own individual reasons. The past couple of times I've went to the gym, I went to the upstairs women section. Not because I feel uncomfortable on the main floor, but it feels more serene upstairs. The gym is well equipped with all the expected exercise equipment; treadmills, elliptical machines, bikes, abdominal/leg machines, free weights, and MORE! The gym's washrooms are really clean, and as a bonus, have showers and a sauna. The sauna would be good for those who are looking to soothe/relax sore muscles/tendons. The shower is good for those who don't want to leave the gym sweaty, especially if you'e headed out to work or school afterwards. There is abundant, free parking. Their hours are: Monday-Friday: 5 AM to 11 PM, and Saturday-Sunday: 7 AM-7 PM. If you're a person that likes to go to the gym after midnight, you won't be able to, here. For me, these hours are perfect because I have children and I never would have the desire to work out during those wee hours of the morning. All in all, I really like the gym. My biggest plus for the gym is that it's QUIET!! I'm sure it may have its noisy moments, but I've yet to see that. It doesn't have the ambience like Good Life or Planet Fitness, where there's a lot of human traffic, waiting to use machines, and poor customer service. The prices are very reasonable, too! If you want a quiet environment to work out, this is your gym, I've never been to a gym like this one!! Highly recommend!!!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym. Great staff. Variety choices of machines. Not crowded. No complaints.

Expérience négative: Just dont

Expérience fantastique: Friendly staff clean ambiance every type of machines available for workouts
