Fortis Fitness West

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym, amazing people. Big Mike is an encyclopedic tome of fitness knowledge.

Expérience fantastique: This gym is exceptional, and I highly recommend it to anyone in the GTA area. The staff and members were incredibly welcoming, and the owner was outstanding. I had a fantastic experience, especially if you’re interested in powerlifting or Olympic lifting; this gym could easily become your second home. I truly loved my time here and would rate it a perfect 10 out of 10. West side for life!

Expérience fantastique: I really don’t know where to begin with this gym. It’s an unreal community with all the equipment you could possibly think about! Everyone is welcoming and has great attitude towards Fitness Regardless of your experience and where you are in your fitness journey, I truly believe this is the best gym in the GTA

Expérience fantastique: Had a workout last week. Probably the best gym I have been to in my experience. Tons of great specialized equipment for everyone to use and great people around also.A big shout out to V very helpful and appreciated. Will go back in the future thanks guys for everything.

Expérience fantastique: This is the gym to go if you're serious about lifting. Excellent selection of equipment, great coaches if you're looking for one. Don't worry if you're a beginner, there are lots of people of all levels and everyone is super respectful and kind. 24/7 is a giant asset; I had many zen 2 a.m. workouts there.

Expérience fantastique: Honestly one of the best gym experiences. People are friendly and supportive! The gym has that old school feel in all the right ways! It has everything you need and want. The members become familiar, friendly faces and are always there to give you a spot!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym with lots of variety for weightlifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding and all the fitness equipment you could imagine. Very reasonable pricing and an atmosphere that makes you want to just put in work!

Expérience fantastique: This gym is incredible! The staff are great! I can focus on my workouts easily with no distractions. I would highly recommend this gym to other people.

Expérience fantastique: great gym for those looking to get a high quality workout in, been a trainer for a decade plus and very much enjoy bringing my clients to fortis west. also as a powerlifter love the more serious environment and selection of powerlifting specific equipment they have. highly recommend for someone looking for a more serious, fitness experience with higher quality equipment then a commercial space. Also V and the owners are pretty cool so that's added plus

Expérience fantastique: This isn’t just a gym but an amazing community of people. From powerlifting to Olympic lifting - it has it all. V is an amazing trainer and super knowledgeable. I recommend hiring him - especially if you’re new to the gym.

Expérience fantastique: Great Gym overall, huge variety of equipment, Weightlifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding, and even strong man items. Affordable membership considering everything available to use. Great environment other members & staff included. Huge shout out to V for making my experience as a new member very seamless and comfortable!! Glad I made the change from a commercial gym!

Expérience fantastique: Powerlifter and uni student that comes here when I'm visiting home to train. V is always super friendly and was one of the first people that reached out to me when it was my first time coming here. Gym equipment is great, lots of kilo plates and bumpers (for the oly lifters) as well as regular lb plates. they even have a nice turf area and some arm wrestling stuff too! Great atmosphere, and depending on what time you go, you can get both the friendly loud vibes of a gym as well as the quiet focused vibes. Both sides are the beauty of Fortis.

Expérience fantastique: If I could give the gym 10 stars I would. I have been coming here since the summer of 2021 and I can say this is the best gym in Toronto and the entire GTA. The owners are professionals and are always willing to help members no matter how new or experienced they are to the gym. The general manager V is also excellent and succeeds at fostering a great sense of community and is always helpful to new members. I have brought 7 friends here to train permanently and all of them have stayed which testifies to the wonderful training environment here.

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely INCREDIBLE gym!!!! Would recommend to everyone from beginners to high level athletes. Staff is extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Environment is very positive. Even the other people working out are very helpful and approachable. Also the monthly fee is the lowest I have ever seen in this economy!!

Expérience fantastique: If strength and functionality is your goal, I’d highly recommend this gym. Great community, friendly and insightful staff, and all the equipment you could ever need to reach your strength goals.

Expérience fantastique: Greatest gym in Mississauga, V (Vitusan) has been my favorite trainer & inspiration has been my main reason for going to this gym but has encouraged me to come to the gym for myself... Best GYM! Amazing community

Expérience fantastique: Great workout experience! The owners and staff are very friendly and kind to members.

Expérience fantastique: nice

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in Etobicoke and Mississauga

Expérience positive: Solid gym overall, have dropped in here about a dozen or two times to train with some friends and I can say it’s one of the best in the area for pure strength training - haven’t been to the main location but from what I’ve been told by members here that have dual memberships or drop in at the Toronto location, both are great.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing facility with great owners.

Expérience fantastique: I have had the pleasure of working with John Fortich over the past 6 months. John is a professional and knowledgeable trainer who is passionate about helping his clients achieve their goals. Anyone who works with him can tell that he genuinely cares about his clients and their well being. He goes above and beyond to ensure that they are set up for success throughout their fitness journey. John has been training me for my first powerlifting meet coming up in June. He has done an excellent job at tailoring my program to best suit my goals, needs, and lifestyle. He takes into account many factors to ensure my programming and sessions are most effective for me. What I appreciate most about John's training mentality, is that he reinforces injury prevention, recovery and longevity. As I client and fellow trainer, I am grateful that he priorities this aspect of training. I highly recommend John as a trainer for anyone looking to reach their goals in the gym! In terms of the facility, Fortis West is a great gym with a variety of equipment. It's open 24/7 to members, and everyone there is respectful of the space. I look forward to more sessions with John and I am excited to continue my strength training journey here.

Expérience fantastique: Great gym with a great owner! If your looking for a gym designed more as a strength and conditioning facility come here.

Expérience fantastique: I PICK UP HEAVY THINGS. I PUT THEM BACK DOWN. I HAVE FUN.

Expérience fantastique: Nice clean organized

Expérience fantastique: Is good gym

Expérience fantastique: This gym is amazing. They have a wide variety of equipment and accessories for all your needs. The energy in the gym motivates you to push and work hard. I had the pleasure of being trained by John. His knowledge and patience helped me get the start I needed for my fitness journey.

Expérience fantastique: The gym itself is simple and wonderful. I started training there when I was pregnant. My trainer John Fortich was very kind. With his guidance and care, I was still able to lift safely throughout my pregnancy. He helped me maintain my strength so that I was able to jump back into my power lifting training after giving birth. He has done such an awesome job, that my family now comes to train with John. Whether you are a seasoned lifter or beginner, I found that many Fortis members are very supportive of each and are very encouraging. Even the owners are super friendly and helpful and always takes time to say hello to the members. Fortis has become my second home.

Expérience fantastique: Incredible gym! Supportive of their values and mission. At first I was intimidated with all the powerlifters being a beginner myself. As one of their signs states you grow out of your comfort zone - indeed I am. Absolutely love the security of their 24/7 access as well. The staff and owners are very responsive and take great care in maintaining the equipment along with the atmosphere. If you ever need a personal trainer, they have a list of incredible individuals whom will train you on-site. Thanks Jeremy, Kat and all for doing all you do to maintain a supportive environment!

Expérience fantastique: Super friendly staff and owner! Competition equipment is also great!!

Expérience fantastique: Definitely the number one gym in the west end

Expérience fantastique: Great 24hr gym. Card access. Clean and well laid out workout area. Awesome collection of equipment to use that you won't find anywhere else.

Expérience fantastique: 90% of his building is the gym, the office and the washrooms are the size of a size of a broom closet. Everything is about training here, there is no fluff or rows upon rows of cardio machines.

Expérience fantastique: Have a great group of friends that train there and are truly supported in their pursuit of strength. Supplied with great equipment and atmosphere to help local athletes reach new heights.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym ever!

Expérience fantastique: Great place.

Expérience fantastique: One of the best gyms in Toronto.

Expérience fantastique: Fortis West is one of the finest gyms and communities in Ontario...hands down. The equipment and floorplan of Fortis are first in class. Plenty of space, racks, awesome machines that you won't find at any other gym, and a very clean experience. Fortis West does a great job disinfecting and providing COVID-19 friendly experience. The owners, Jeremy and Krsyal, offer a welcoming experience and plethora of knowledge for any person looking to further along their fitness journey. This is in my opinion is the greatest asset of being a Fortis West member.

Expérience fantastique: Phenomenal facility

Expérience fantastique: This is an absolutely amazing facility with a friendly community and a wide variety of equipment to fit your lifting needs. This is the best gym I've ever worked out in

Expérience fantastique: I couldn’t be more honest when I say that Fortis Fitness West is the best gym that I’ve ever been to. After the tour I was given I signed up immediately and was so eager to get in and workout. I’ve been a member for about a month now. The staff are amazing, super kind, and always willing to help and answer any questions. The amount of equipment they offer is amazing. Anyone who is a beginner or even an advanced lifter will love this gym!

Expérience fantastique: Easily one of the best gyms I've gone through. Besides all the ample equipment, specialty machines and bars, open turf, and everything else a great gym has. The one thing that truly makes Fortis special and amazing is the community. The entire staff are friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. All the other gym goers will help out, no judgement, and cheer you on your path forward. Even during the pandemic, Fortis has made sure that everyone is safe and everything is accessible. I cannot applause enough at the lengths Fortis has taken.

Expérience fantastique: Awesome gym premium equipement

Expérience fantastique: The best.

Expérience fantastique: By far the best gym experience I've ever had. Top notch equipment, inspiring atmosphere, great music and best of all, you never have to wait for a squat rack. I can't recommend this place enough.

Expérience fantastique: Great facility, great atmosphere and great equipment. Can't ask for a better gym!

Expérience fantastique: Jeremy and Krystal are the sweetest. They always greet members and are super kind. As a member or just anyone dropping in for a tour, you feel welcomed and at home. The atmosphere may come off a little intimidating at first but give it a chance and I promise you that you’re in for a surprise. There is a bond amongst members that is almost familial. And this is just the energy of the gym. The equipment is also top notch allowing for training in multiple disciplines ranging from Olympic weightlifting to arm wrestling, powerlifting and strongman. Multiple specialty bars and racks including an assisted unracking bench, football bars, axel bars and more. This is basically a jungle gym for adults. If you’re situated along the border of Etobicoke and Mississauga, do yourself a favour and check out Fortis West. You’re welcome.

Expérience fantastique: THE BEST GYM IV EVER BEEN TO THE OWNERS ARE AMAZING AND WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS AND ALWAYS THERE FOR ADVISE WONT GET THIS AT ANY OTHER GYM

Expérience fantastique: Hands Down The G.O.A.T of Gym's

Expérience fantastique: Great place to start strength training and Jeremy is always there to help you!

Expérience fantastique: Came in with my friends yesterday to check it out and LOVED the facility! Awesome clang and bang style gym. Now trying to figure out how to utilize my trip out there from Scarborough cause I just lived the vibe there! Jeremy treated us so nicely and all the members were super cool and nice. Played with the new hip/quad machine and fell in love!

Expérience fantastique: Fortis West is hands down, the best strength gym in Canada. They have the best equipment, environment and people. I've trained at a variety of facilities in Canada, the US and Europe and I always feel my best at Fortis West. The owners, Krystal and Jeremy are hugely knowledgeable and Jeremy never bats an eye at answering my questions and giving his thoughts to my training. I feel so lucky to have such an amazing facility close by. If you can train here, do it. You'll never look at the gym the same way.

Expérience fantastique: I started driving down to Fortis West from Newmarket because I was sick of my commercial gym. 1 year later, and I can honestly say it's the best decision I ever made. I thought by joining a gym filled with the strongest people and equipment in the GTA would up my powerlifting game, and I was right. It's not just a gym, it's a community, and Krystal and Jer make sure it's a place everyone will want to call home. 1 year after joining Fortis and I've actually moved my life to Toronto to be closer to it.

Expérience fantastique: An amazing place to train and get inspired to reach higher, 10/10 would recommend

Expérience fantastique: Incredible strength training facility. Helpful staff, great atmosphere.

Expérience fantastique: Great facilities and great people!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym!! Supportive and friendly environment .

Expérience fantastique: Just visited them and Fortis West is the place to be if you are a strength training enthusiast! Jeremy and all of the staff are super cool and helped me with everything I needed! Top notch equipment and great environment.

Expérience fantastique: Best 24/7 gym in the Toronto area

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in the GTA and the most amazing owners!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym great environment great people

Expérience fantastique: Highly recommend this place, amazing facility with great equipment. People/staff are super friendly especially Jeremey very knowledgeable and welcoming and takes pride of what he does, members are heads down focussing on doing their thing and are really helpful, don’t even hesitate asking for anything. This place is 27 x7 which makes it even better, this is a Mecca for lifters in the GTA..thanks FORTIS

Expérience fantastique: A fantastic workout facility - great working equipment, clean, tidy, etc. Great community of motivated and helpful people. Not intimidating at all and very diverse: there are many people of different sizes, colours, shapes, ages, fitness levels, performance levels, goals, etc. The owners are very inviting and accommodating. I often see them cleaning and tidying up. They appear to lead by example and treat the gym like their home and their members like family. I really like the 24/7 access and the flexible plan, as well as the workshops they provide by their "Advisory" committee. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is googling Goodlife, Wynn, Port Credit Athletics, or other gyms in the area.

Expérience fantastique: The best gym in the west end. 24/7 access for members and a seemingly endless supply of top-quality equipment. Jeremy and the rest of the Fortis staff are incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and have created an atmosphere far removed from that of commercial gyms reflected in the community Fortis West has built (excellent merch too). Also everyone re-racks their weights!

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in GTA! Staff are incredible and accommodating, hours are 24/7 and this gym has top notch equipment. This gym has an amazing community!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym and great gear!

Expérience fantastique: Best professional gym ive found so far and the best thing: There is a armwrestling table and people train it on wednesdays

Expérience fantastique: The best facility I've trained at. Not only do they have some of the best equipment but the staff there are incredibly nice. The environment is very welcoming and there's always new things to learn at Fortis West from some of the best athletes.

Expérience fantastique: Best west end gym, and one of the bwst gyms in all of the GTA for anyone to workout at. Great prices monthly, awesome access as it is 24 hours, and Jeremy is the nicest owner fully willing to help you out even while he is mid workout! Everyone working out is very friendly. If visiting email ahead of time and he will even let you just slip the day fee under the door.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in the GTA, bar none! Unparalleled selection of equipment, and great atmosphere. Highly recommend if you’re a novice lifter to advanced power lifter.

Expérience fantastique: The best gym I've ever trained in. There is a selection of equipment unlike any I've seen and all of it is superb quality. There aren't a ton of isolation machines taking up the whole place. In their place is all the good stuff! No waiting for racks here. Ideal for anyone just starting out and ideal for someone who's trained for years. Worth going out of your way for.

Expérience fantastique: Been to just about every gym in the west end of Toronto and if you're an avid lifter of any discipline this is the place to be

Expérience fantastique: This gym offers everything a serious strength athlete would need equipment-wise. Everywhere you look, there are huge squats and deadlifts being lifted, athletes training drills on the turf, kettlebells being pressed overhead, and just enough high quality cardio equipment for some warm up (or serious cardio training for the athletes). The Strongman equipment is impressive and the real deal, pro-level stuff. The best Strongman athletes in the world could easily have all the equipment required for a truly world class training session. Powerlifters will feel right at home here, the barbells are top of the line, competition quality and there are calibrated plates for max attempts when you need to test for meet prep with kilo plates. All the necessary machines for toning are there, but they don't take up much space and are just kind of scattered around the gym. But, everything is there that you'd need if you're a physique athlete who wants to get in some serious toning before a meet (or whatever it's called). Great gym, there's a shower, lockers, everything you need and probably some things you'll never even get around to using. It's like a treasure box; if you have a bit of an imagination, you'll never get bored with the place!

Expérience fantastique: The best gym in the city. Incredible staff and clientele make for great energy and positive training environment

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in the West. Great staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Machines, weights, bars, platforms and strong man equipment are all the best quality. The gym, washrooms and showers are very clean. The clientele take pride in this gym, the members are friendly, they clean up after themselves and are willing to help anyone at anytime.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in the West End hands down. Super friendly and helpful owners. Awesome equipment. Gym is VERY clean and the members are welcoming to everyone. Perfect for beginners or more experienced people.

Expérience fantastique: This gym is definitely efficient in increasing strength

Expérience fantastique: If the greatest minds gathered to brainstorm the perfect gym, they would end up with a description of Fortis Fitness West.

Expérience fantastique: Great vibes, awesome equipment. Jeremy and Crystal are the best!

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely love this place. It’s the real deal, be uncomfortable

Expérience fantastique: I love this gym and how it is operated. The staff are really accommodating in terms of availability hours, showing you how to use the equipment and regularly upgrading and getting new stuff. Everything seems well taken care of. When I moved away and had to cancel my membership I was surprised that there is no fee to cancel, it’s just a matter of sending the owner an email. there was zero hassle or contractual obligation like there is with other gyms I’ve went to which was such a relief but also made me wish I could stay at this gym forever

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in GTA west. If you want to get strong this gym is for you. A lot of racks, specialty bars, strongman equipment, weightlifting platforms, and various specialty equipment. The reverse hyper is a blessing for my lower back.

Expérience fantastique: This is the most well made, maintained training facility. Doesn’t have to be for powerlifting. Jeremy has been thoughtful and has created an environment for all types of sports, fitness enthusiasts and beginners. The best part about it is that there’s no negative environment surrounding you like many commercial gyms seem to gather. Also people put their weights away ;)

Expérience fantastique: This is actually my first google review ever, because frankly I can't say enough wonderful things about this gym. Well its more than just a gym, its a family because everyone here is super encouraging, helpful and inspiring, keeping you motivated on your training journey. Great space, great equipment and great people!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym, friendly staff & supportive members!

Expérience positive: Good place to train strongman.
