Excel Fitness Club

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in the GTA!

Expérience fantastique: Iron paradise. No more, no less.

Expérience positive: Gym

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in durham region hands down.

Expérience fantastique: I recently joined this club and I really like the environment the owner of the gym Billy is really helpful. Highly recommended!

Expérience fantastique: Check them out

Expérience fantastique: Great gym in Pickering! The owner Bill takes great care of the facility and equipment. Would recommend this gym to family and friends!

Expérience fantastique: In a world filled with expensive gyms with hidden fees, Excel stands in a class by itself. The owner, Bill is a fantastic guy that genuinely cares about every member. The members are very welcoming and friendly, it truly is a ego free gym.

Expérience fantastique: I joined this gym in January of 2022 and I definitely will be joining up again. I appreciate the no-nonsense type of atmosphere where you can just go and work out. The owner Billy is a super guy as well as the staff, I highly recommend this gym.

Expérience positive: Decent gym but over priced for the machines and space they have. Has a wide open window, un-tinted for runners to look on to the road while running and vice versa, decent place for lifting

Expérience fantastique: Excellent private gym. Very clean and well kept. The Owner Bill is very friendly and down to earth. Highly recommend

Expérience fantastique: Recently joined, great gym to be at. Everything you need and nice old school feel.

Expérience fantastique: Best gym in Pickering.

Expérience fantastique: Great gym. Has a golds gym vibe. People come here to work, not to socialize. Everyone will help you with a spot. You can leave your valuables anywhere. It will be right where you left it. There is a community shelf for workout powders and chalk. Just replace what you use. No cash grab admin sign up fee. If you want to get in shape without the fashion show vibe with people who seriously work out, then come to excel.

Expérience fantastique: Hands down one of the best gyms in the entire GTA. Not only is it a very large and spacious gym with all the top of the line machines and equipment that members of all ages and fitness levels can possibly want and ask for but moreover it is an extremely positive environment to be in with the nicest/kindest people ever as both club members and also as trainers and other staff. The owner Bill is a super nice guy and very caring and supportive of all his members. Not something that anyone can expect at any of the big box gyms in the city. Most importantly, membership prices are very very reasonable and affordable.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been going here for more than 8 years and it’s only dawned on me now to leave a review. Reviews are also something I never care to do, but Excel has more than earned it. I used to live in Pickering and go to this gym. Now I live in Toronto, and there’s a reason I make the drive to Excel from there to workout still. There is without question no other gym I’d rather go to than this one. Super friendly environment, the owner Bill is absolutely one of the kindest people I’ve met, and the rest of the staff are just as helpful and friendly. Not to mention all the members here share the same qualities. The prices are some of the lowest you’ll find besides Fit4Less, The gym is never busy, and there is plenty of superb quality weights and equipment so you never have to wait to use something. And just as the other reviews state, this has an old school “club” feel to it. It’s refreshing always coming from other gyms to Excel, as most gyms fail to encapsulates such a feeling. It’s safe to say that personally, for me, Bill has earned a member for life!

Expérience fantastique: Excellent service. After seeing how rude goodlife employees were, i came down here and signed up. Much more welcoming and friendly environment.

Expérience fantastique: Great gym to go to.

Expérience fantastique: Clean gym, nice staff, small, but has what you need.

Expérience fantastique: I love this gym! Old school weights make u feel like your in Pumping Iron and the owner Bill is great dude. Fair prices too. I highly recommend

Expérience fantastique: Super friendly clean and one of the nicest owners you'll ever meet .. five star

Expérience fantastique: After going here for nearly 9 months, I have to say it's my favourite. It's a family-like environment, the staff are super helpful, very clean, affordable, has the right equipment to get a solid workout in no matter the muscle group you're after. I love this gym and will continue to go for years to come. Let's go team Excel!!!!

Expérience fantastique: Love the new location. Brand new equipment. Amazing weight lifting gym with a court

Expérience fantastique: Great

Expérience fantastique: One of the best classic training gyms in Durham. My fav gym for traditional strength and bodybuilding training

Expérience fantastique: Old school non corporate gym.. for ALL levels of fitness .. no high pressure sales.. just go in.. do your thing...and lracr.. follows all covid guidelines and exceptionally clean

Expérience fantastique: Nice place to get a workout. Even better when people are so friendly there. Seems old school but there is a wide variety of machines

Expérience fantastique: Joined this place lately, the manager of the gym is an amazing, welcoming and helpful person. Staff is pretty cool and gym has a lot of equipment. I'd like to say there's 5 seperate sections: 1. A lot of machines like Pec fly, rowing machines and assisted chin ups etc. (Right when you walk in through the entrance) 2. Boxing: It's got a mini ring(sort of), a punching bag, a speed bag, skip rope, battle ropes, gloves and boxes for step ups) 3. ️ Weight Room + Barbell section: This room got fancy artwork, a lot of dumbbells, squat racks and a lot of exercise equipment. 4. ‍♀️ Cardio space (Upstairs): It has treadmills, ellipticals and different types of bikes. 5. Warm up sort of place (Upstairs): It's got smaller dumbbells, kettlebells, Swiss Ball, medicine ball etc. P.S. I'm fairly new to fitness, pardon my references to equipment.

Expérience fantastique: Awesome gym. Best place to do boxing practice and work out. Comes highly recommended.

Expérience fantastique: Very knowledgeable and helpful Trainors. Didn't think twice before signing up with a Trainor.

Expérience fantastique: Best.

Expérience fantastique: This gym has something other gyms have lost. RESPECT!!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym. Has everything you need! Has a nice old school feel which is something I love. Bill is like family. Knowing everyone’s names and just being a awesome gym owner. I love this place and can’t wait to get back to it!

Expérience fantastique: Old school gym, if you want to lift weight and break a sweat for a decent price this is your place. If you want to relax at a spa, not the gym for you.

Expérience fantastique: Great people and place

Expérience fantastique: Great gym!

Expérience fantastique: This place is literally the best. I used to come here years ago and just recently signed up again. Bill is one of the nicest gym owners I’ve met. The gym has literally everything you beee, and it’s a great atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend it more

Expérience fantastique: I recently joined this gym and I love it. It's cheap, convenient and feels private. It also has everything I'm looking for with a great variety of machines. Bill, the owner is very nice and is extremely welcoming and I'll be looking to make this my go to gym.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym and even more amazing owner.. can't say enough good things about it ... Great environment all the machines and free weight equipment you would ever need

Expérience positive: Old school gym with a lot of machines from years ago. Staff are friendly and helpful. Very careful of the COVID rules and overall needs more cleaning but other than that it’s pretty good gym.

Expérience fantastique: No fluff no hassle. Greatest gym east of Yonge st

Expérience fantastique: I've been to a few gyms throughout the years and Excel Fitness is definitely one of the best. Bill and his staff are very welcoming and friendly, and the gym is clean. Lots of machines and free weights available. Truely one of the best bodybuilding gyms around.

Expérience positive: Its an old gym. Not pretty as goodlife but you got everything in there. Washrooms are disgusting. Just make sure you use the bathroom before you head up there. You can get a good workout there.

Expérience fantastique: Bill, the owner, made me feel welcome from the moment I stepped in the door. This is a legit gym. Happy for the opportunity to train there.

Expérience fantastique: I used to train here like 25 yrs ago and recently rejoined. New owner and the gym has expanded a little. Good old style bodybuilder type gym. Good equipment and little distractions.

Expérience fantastique: First day there and it was good. Not crowded for a saturday morning. A variety of equipment which is great. Never had to wait for anything. Clean, santizing all around and people follow the protocols.

Expérience négative: Covid 19 mask rules not enforced, lots of idiots in here refuse to wear a mask

Expérience fantastique: Love this place , first time I Went I felt like it was home!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym and amazing owner

Expérience fantastique: Wicked gym, definitely not a social club like good life and other big box gyms. You are able to go there, go through your routine with zero interruptions. And you cant beat the price or people. The owner bill is awesome. This gym has that average Joe's feel to it.

Expérience fantastique: Solid gym. Doesn't get too busy. Has great equipment.. lots of variety. Better than any Goodlife or other commercial gym.

Expérience fantastique: Great gym! Has everything you need for a great work out. Classic gym, affordable , owner is great. Highly recommend.

Expérience fantastique: A great gym. Tried and true equipment, great environment, members who are there to work out. This isn't a fashion show here... it's a solid gym with a very competitive monthly fee (with no hidden fees.) Bill is a solid owner and if you're looking for a real gym, one that isn't a big box gym, you have to at least come in for a visit.

Expérience fantastique: The gym is amazing and is the best gym I ever been in. The equipment are a little old but that does not mean the gym is bad. Bill takes care of the gym and does a great job of doing it. I would recommend this gym to everyone.

Expérience positive: great place to work out low key staff is great Bill is awesome.

Expérience positive: Its low key atmosphere. I can go at anytime and run through my workout smoothly. Equipments are old school so you are the one actually doing the work. It's not a glamorous setting but has a "club" feel.

Expérience fantastique: Staff are friendly and good ambiance

Expérience fantastique: Amazing place . Best deal in town for a gym . Highly recommend . They have all sorts of equipment from strongman Atlas stones, deadlift plateform, to some boxing stuff. It's a bit on the older side when it comes to decor of the gym. But I mean if you are looking for a place to workout not socialize then this is the place to go. The owner Bill is also super accomadating and nice .

Expérience fantastique: This gym has a great feel to it and all the equipment you need.

Expérience fantastique: Greatest gym to ever exist, Good vibes and friendly people!

Expérience fantastique: Great place to work out, not too busy, and friendly people

Expérience fantastique: Bill is a great guy and the gym is phenomenal - not the chrome and glass bs you get nowadays. Lots of free weights, machines and cardio equipment to take care of whatever you are into. No muss, no fuss, simply exercise well and the cost is VERY economical. Superb...!!

Expérience fantastique: Billy is Great. Nice gym. Everything you need for a great workout and friendly patrons as well.

Expérience positive: Excellent place

Expérience fantastique: Amazing place to go work out. Got that nice, local, homey feel. Owner (Bill) is awesome, the people here are really nice, always willing to spot if you need it. Mostly weights, but enough cardio machines upstairs to satisfy anyone. Also got a small boxing are for that as well. Doesn't get too busy, and it's close to the go station :)
