GoodLife Fitness Toronto Coxwell and Gerrard

Expérience négative: Very disappointed, that Coxwell location has closed. Pape is a poor alternative. Group ex.room has bad dimensions, sound system horrible, air conditioner ineffective. Instructors and staff are great. Please return Coxwell location to full service after construction is complete.

Expérience fantastique: Friendly neighbourhood vibe at this location.

Expérience positive: Great facility . Disheartening to hear they are closing however!! heard the la fitness on Danforth is giving us goodlife members who live close by a special rate on memberships so hopefully the members here at good life go there so we can have the same vibe. Members at good life here were really nice. Really enjoyed the people and the staff here. Looks like we got a new gym to take over guys

Expérience fantastique: I've journeyed into the world of personal trainers with Thea at this GoodLife location and she is great! I appreciate her ability to balance pushing me to do more than I think I can but also listening to me when I have hit my limit. I think I am a bit of a tricky client with poor proprioception, poor coordination and occasional lightheadedness. Thankfully, Thea adapts her training strategies so that I am successful and will even make up a new plan on the spot if it is a bad day for lightheadedness. She provides the energy when I don't have much and is always friendly, kind and patient (even when she's taught me the proper way to do squats and I STILL can't get them!). Thanks, Thea!

Expérience fantastique: Great place . Really sad they are closing however !I heard the la fitness on Danforth is giving us goodlife members who live close by a discounted rate on memberships so hopefully the members here at good life go there so we can have the same vibe . Members at good life here were really nice . Really enjoyed the space .

Expérience négative: No longer going to be a Goodlife. Members were notified that it is switching to a Fit4Less.

Expérience positive: Probably one of the very few GL locations in the east end that has a dual (upper and lower) ab crunch machine where the bottom of the machine is not stationary to the ground.

Expérience fantastique: Alice set me up with personal training sessions with JP to help with my transition back to the gym. Although I pride myself on being well-versed around the equipment, JP guided me through a personalized program which is tailored to my specific needs. He really took the time to get to know my fitness goals, and always tweaked the routines to accommodate for injuries . I would highly recommend JP as a personal trainer, if you want more than the same old generic fitness programs showcased over and over again on Youtube.

Expérience négative: The gym has a severe water leak issue for months. No repairs are made meanwhile we breathe in wet drywall and higher levels of mold in a basement gym that hasn’t seen a renovation in a long time. The strategy is to vacuum pools of water off the floor and blow air over it. From the perspective of Goodlife Corp. it has to be one of their least loved gyms. The staff is friendly and helpful and I feel bad that they have to work there breathing in that air and putting up with member complaints about the state of the facilities. I’m posting this review to get the attention of the Goodlife Corporate team to take action and accelerate repairs. Update - May 30 2023 The gym still has leaks and initially had no plans to repair it until mid-summer 2023 - over 6months after the issue started! As of today they revealed their real plan to convert it to a low budget Fit4Less. No idea what private research they are basing this on. The area has many high income young professionals. They gave only 1 month notice, to reveal this plan and find another GoodLife gym. Ideally they invest in improving this gym instead of downgrading it to a budget option.

Expérience négative: Has been like this for at least 2 months. In Goodlife you get charge in full but this is what you get, no communication no apologies. The staff is great and friendly thou.

Expérience fantastique: You are Family

Expérience fantastique: GoodLife Fitness at Coxwell and Gerrard has been great!!! -Spin bikes have been serviced and additional spin bikes added thanks to a great Management team and great Spin Instructors at Coxwell and Gerrard location.

Expérience positive: It's a little small but has all the equipment you need. Even had an assisted pull up machine. Unfortunately no heavy bag though. Friendly and even on a Saturday is wasn't overly busy.

Expérience positive: The Sculpt and Tone class on Wednesday mornings is worth the membership. Professional and friendly staff too.

Expérience fantastique: Good clean gym. 3 squat racks. No cell reception in the basement though.

Expérience fantastique: I recommend this location, not busy at all, great team, staff is awesome and welcoming, Thank you again!!

Expérience positive: Great gym. Has everything you need and a good class schedule

Expérience positive: Great location. Friendly staff. Clean. Lot of good equipment. I put 4 stars because I think it’s missing fixed straight barbells and the WiFi is not great. Not that I care about social network, it just feels weird to be unreachable. WiFi calling is the only option as there is no wireless coverage underground.

Expérience fantastique: Gym for alphas

Expérience fantastique: Small but not too crowded of a location. I like this one because the gym goers here are serious about fitness and don’t drag their feet or stand around talking by the machines when others need to use them. They do their sets and keep it moving, all gyms should be like this one.

Expérience positive: On the small side for GoodLife's. Has all the necessary equipment though. Staff are friendly and engaging.

Expérience fantastique: Very good vibe. No judgement.

Expérience positive: After being in lockdown for so long you’d think the TVs would have been fixed by now. Half of them have no sound and some of them can’t be changed. Also the elliptical machines are either out of service or have issues with them eg try to go backwards it resets the machine; super clunky and loud. The staff for the most part are awesome so a bit higher rating.

Expérience positive: Spread out on two levels. Just an OK gym but works in a pinch

Expérience positive: I joined GL after a long break. Alice really helped me get back into it and I have made huge progress in just 1 month. Her experience and knowledge are priceless! The club is clean and well maintained. The manager is super friendly.

Expérience fantastique: I find the staff incredibly friendly and supportive. Super clean and organized gym. Thanks Balaji for your great work.

Expérience fantastique: This Goodlife location is a hidden gem. There are so many squat racks, the staff are all really friendly, and the Manager leads by example and will always hear you out if you need help. The group fitness studio is huge! I tried a class with Kathleen and it was a great workout.

Expérience fantastique: Gym is a smaller community based with friendly helpful, staff and all the equipment needed to do a great workout. There's never a line for machines and clients seem friendly. This is my preferred location!!!!

Expérience fantastique: Thumbs up, love this club! Love the morning front desk crew!

Expérience fantastique: The facility & equipment are regularly cleaned and maintained well. The changing rooms are well kept as well.

Expérience fantastique: Staff at this location are the best. Location is nicely divided on two levels, and very friendly clientele.

Expérience fantastique: Extraordinary service!! The dedication Balaji(Manager) puts in is so great. I like this location more than any other good life gyms.

Expérience fantastique: I love working out at Goodlife Coxwell because I'm always greated by the friendliest, most welcoming smile from all staffs.

Expérience fantastique: I love it. Not too busy. Good range of equipment, and I adore the staff. The staff are always friendly, and are a BIG reason why I keep going. I've asked for instruction on how to do specific exercises with certain pieces of equipment, and the Personal Trainers and support staff have always been glad to help. (Big thanks to Mark and Andrew!). A few have commented on aspects of my workout regimen with praise, and it's meant a lot to hear such kind and encouraging words. Some of the other reviews here speak of 'pressure' on the sales side of things, but I've not had that experience whatsoever. Oh, and I LOVE, L-O-V-E my homegirl Pam. She's PAM-TASTIC!!

Expérience fantastique: joshua is a very friendly and helping from the staff, other than the staff place is a good gym

Expérience fantastique: Staff work hard to keep it sanitized.

Expérience fantastique: I love coming to this club for the great spin classes-Emily at the front desk is awesome - always so professional, helpful and upbeat (even at 6am!)

Expérience fantastique: Big green bonus points for having a bike rack inside the gym.

Expérience fantastique: Customer service from Ethan at this location was amazing. I initially found out I had been paying for 2 memberships for about 3 months due to an error from my previous home gym. Ethan told me he was going to speak with management to see what he can do and call me back. He got back to me in about 10 minutes letting me know he got one of the memberships cancelled and helped me get a refund for the all the fees and payments from that membership. Can't thank him enough for his help. Highly recommend talking to him for any membership needs.

Expérience fantastique: Definitely better than any LA Fitness

Expérience fantastique: I came all the way from England just to take Bodypump classes with Kathleen.... Just kidding, although it did take me a while to discover that Goodlife offers the full range of Les Mills exercise programs. The Coxwell gym is great. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and there's good TTC access, street parking, and even a bike rack in the entrance. Since gyms reopened two months ago I have been coming regularly, and I feel the protocols they have put in place at Goodlife Coxwell to prevent transmission of COVID-19 are working well. And the benefits for my physical and mental health have been overwhelming!

Expérience négative: This gym is better then other goodlife locations in the area however it's still has lots of room for improvement. After around 4pm almost everyday it's like the staff stop caring and just hang out. Countless times I've mentioned that the paper towels have ran out in the men's room and also downstairs. The last time I told a staff member nothing happend for an hour. I then told the fitness manager and she left and went home after without doing anything. I gave up mentioning this to the staff because to make matters worse talking to the gym manager is the biggest mistake. He doesn't take constructive criticism well. He points the blame at the members and quite frankly is a difficult person to hold a respectful conversation with. I'm writing this review for the hopes that someone starts caring more about the quality of this gym and hopefully some good change will come out of this. Ps the paper towels are empty right now in the change room also every single garbage bin is overflowing for the past hour. Ooo not to mention the mold on the shower wall that I told staff about over 2 months ago . It's still there. I guess the moral of this story is why should the staff care if the management is showing poor leadership skills.

Expérience fantastique: Great facilities and Goodlife staff...especially Emily.

Expérience positive: Wish they had more fitness classes during the evening and weekends later on the afternoon.

Expérience fantastique: I live in London and visited this club last week. The staff and instructors were amazing! They welcomed me and showed me around the club. Really positive energy from everyone Thank you !

Expérience fantastique: BodyPump foot wear things I learned -- the hard way. Buy yourself a new pair of shoes. Only wear those shoes for BodyPump. That way, the heels of your shoes are not worn down. Your feet will be better planted firmly and as flat as possible on the floor. The solid support will give you better posture. You will not have a tendency to wobble from side to side or, fall forward.

Expérience négative: Equipment is a bit dated compared to other GoodLife locations. Generally clean gym. Update March 2023: water leak in the weights area last few weeks. They are trying to fix it but it's not an easy one. Not great.

Expérience négative: very bad customer service at night run by what looks like children with zero customer service, i had issues with some requests and instead of being helpful they sat there like security guards instead of making a client feel comfortable especially being a woman going into a coed gym, horrible first day experience thanks

Expérience fantastique: Clean gym. I don’t go to the gym but the one time I went it was here and it was nice

Expérience fantastique: Great club and amazing classes.

Expérience fantastique: Clean gym. I don’t go to the gym but the one time I went it was here and it was nice

Expérience fantastique: Such great customer service! I called and talked to the Fitness Manager (Alice) with questions regarding my membership, the freeze, and COVID-19. Alice was SO helpful and professional the whole time. Thank you so much to the Goodlife team for their support and patience during this time!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing classes!

Expérience fantastique: Well maintained gym with great staff, and a super convenient location across from a grocery store, dollar store, supplement shop and more. The gym itself is relatively small for a Goodlife location (so unfortunately no turf area and limited stretching/calisthenics space), but it has every piece of equipment I've ever needed, and makes good use of the space even if it feels slightly cramped. Great location!

Expérience fantastique: Great neighborhood gym. Big improvements made...more spin bikes! Chris Collins is still the best spin instructor!

Expérience négative: Wish it could be open 24/7 its the only gym closest to me & its hard to work it into my schedule.

Expérience positive: Love this gym wish there was more spin classes offered!

Expérience positive: Does anyone know if there is free parking near by? Thanks in advance!

Expérience négative: Expensive. Poor value. No heavy bag. You pay a cancellation fee when you sign up.

Expérience négative: I wish I could give 0 stars... This good life fitness is all about how to collect money from members from the day you register till the day you quit. Once you get the membership the trainers (I would like to call them as sales agents) in the gym will be behind you for months asking to hire them as personal trainer and try to make a sale saying all kinds of stuff such as they can help you build your body much faster then expected, can help loose 8 - 12lbs in less than a Month to steal money from you, even if u ignore or inform saying not interested one or the other guy will come to you and pitch for a sale………I went to the club have a bad background and paid for coach i did first session, Second and third I did with other coach, The second and third she training me same no change, after I told General manager but nothing they do for you , also I have left 4 session she told me I will call to Book fourth session, I thought she gonna call me at least two days or three days she doesn't call me after from 14 Oct , to 26 Oct, 13 days she call on 26 Oct and she told me i want to book fourth session , I am paid the money Club no honest first time and last time I never come back again to goodlife I feel so bad take money without service please share with other and I will tell in all social media…..

Expérience fantastique: Good location. Decent equipment. Excellent staff.

Expérience fantastique: Clean small gym and doesn’t get too crowded.

Expérience fantastique: Great little gym. Feels more like a mom and pop kinda Goodlife.

Expérience fantastique: Small gym but very nice and cool downstairs with the weight machines.

Expérience fantastique: Great little gym. Feels more like a mom and pop kinda Goodlife.

Expérience fantastique: Great place to work out with awesome trainers

Expérience fantastique: All the machines and weights you may need and more. Clean premises.

Expérience fantastique: Two levels to this gym, up to 100 lbs dumbbell free-weights, very spacious and perfect

Expérience fantastique: I like going to this GL location. It's a bit small and street parking is annoying but it's nicely laid out and clean. Also there are no meathead trainers harrassing you to sign up for their personal training session that's common in other places.

Expérience fantastique: Always my favorite Goodlife. Most friendly staff in Canada!

Expérience fantastique: I drove past here

Expérience fantastique: Great team here nice and clean gym

Expérience fantastique: Great experience!

Expérience fantastique: Good environment, clean, friendly members and staff.

Expérience fantastique: A Gym run by Ji is the place to be!

Expérience fantastique: Really good gym and super nice staff. We were there for a holiday an payed only 14 can dollars for 14 days. Our teen got a free pass.

Expérience positive: Nice

Expérience positive: This gym is converted from either a cinema or other businesses. The layout is a bit awkward and the building is constantly under maintenance issues. I have been to this gym for couple times, and I cannot remember one time where a large fam is not set up in the middle of the change room. This gym has no parking available on site and street parking is very pricy. I wish they would open another location in the oconnor and st Clair area as the industrial properties there might offer the space that a proper gym is required.

Expérience positive: Definitely needs updating, I still go because it's so local but not as nice as other GoodLife locations and a bit run down. Washrooms need serious work.

Expérience fantastique: All the machines and weights you may need and more. Clean premises.

Expérience négative: I had a free 28 day unlimited pass and they will not honor it. It was from virgin mobile

Expérience positive: This is a really good gym. My only complaint is not with Goodlife but with the people who lounge on a piece of equipment while they check their phones for 20 minutes. Or the ones who hang a towel on a machine and then go do sets elsewhere. Do you really expect us to wait for you? Have a little consideration.

Expérience positive: Smaller gym... but has many squat racks which is nice considering the size of the gym. The child services they provide are amazing making it possible for me to get in and out easily. Many people really dont wipe machines down as well as washing their hands after using the washroom using which is annoying. The staff are friendly enough and overall you can get a decent training session... there is a moisture issue here from time to time but isn't as bad as pape and danforth goodlife

Expérience positive: Supportive staff.

Expérience positive: Small compact gym. Best to go during off hours

Expérience fantastique: I like going to this GL location. It's a bit small and street parking is annoying but it's nicely laid out and clean. Also there are no meathead trainers harrassing you to sign up for their personal training session that's common in other places.

Expérience fantastique: Nice staff and people. Very clean too. Greate gym for evoryone from someone just starting to work out, all the way up to the protein chugging monsters who can bench like 300 pounds or something.

Expérience fantastique: High-5!

Expérience fantastique: Front counter service and staff are absolutely wonderful, you couldnt ask for better people, or better service. I go there for the tanning beds, they rock!!!

Expérience fantastique: I need to say that Robin Francis is a PUMP Instructor that deserves recognition and applaud. Robin represents what I believe is the ideal role-model for PUMP instructors. Robin's keen and expert eye monitors every participant in her class, making sure technique and form is correct. She is not reluctant to provide individual comment according to what the participant 'needs'...she understands the importance of a safe workout that will deliver results, and avoid the development of bad habits....and she does so in a very respectful way. She is exceptionally knowledgeable. Robin's form and technique is 2nd to none. A true professional that delivers, she raises the bar across the instructor group in Goodlife. Thank you, Robin, for your participant-focussed, expert, and fun-filled instruction.

Expérience fantastique: Great little Goodlife - reminds me more of a community gym than a typical Goodlife. Split on two floors (cardio, studios, some weight-machines on the first floor, weights & change rooms in the basement). Always kept clean & have yet to see anything broken here. The men's change room is really big, never have to search for a locker. And the staff are friendly for the most part. The only downside is the basement can get hot & stuffy when there's a lot of people working out.

Expérience positive: Good

Expérience positive: Go on off hours - mid morning or mid afternoon

Expérience positive: Small, a bit rough and ready, two floors but feels tight and exposed. Staff and class leaders lovely. Lockers are fine.

Expérience fantastique: Nice staff and people. Very clean too. Greate gym for evoryone from someone just starting to work out, all the way up to the protein chugging monsters who can bench like 300 pounds or something.

Expérience fantastique: Great Members

Expérience négative: This is the gym I go to and it's fine but the hours are so whack. Every other GoodLife is open much longer hours if not 24/7. It's a huge hassle having to make it before 8pm on the weekend, and 10pm on the weekdays. It's hard to achieve your fitness goals as it is, without having "it's too late, gyms closed" as an excuse as well

Expérience négative: If you don’t mind finding needles in the change room you will be fine

Expérience positive: This is the most compact location I've been to thus far. I am touring them all and finding out how they compare to each other. There are no showers, so this is tailored for folks around the neighbourhood. The corridor leading to the change room is also tight. For this facility, you have to go downstairs to find the change room.

Expérience négative: Too crowded.
