Reviews of Canal Fitness (Gym)

Tan Minh Phan

Spacious gym with a good selection of machines and training rooms

Sarah Moore

friendly and quiet ! love working out there

Elise Arnaud

(Translated) I really did not like this room. There is very little equipment and those available are very old, and there is never anyone at the reception (or in the room ...). On the other hand, the locker rooms are very clean. (Original) Je n'ai vraiment pas aimé cette salle. Il y a très peu d'équipement et ceux disponibles sont très vieux, et il n'y a jamais personne à l’accueil (ni dans la salle d'ailleurs...). Par contre les vestiaires sont très propres.

To be fair it's a niche gym for dragon boat training and I don't use it for that - for me it's sufficient for working out, but doesn't compete with large chain gyms.

Charles Tawa

Great workout facility. Newly renovated (expanded). Locker rooms with showers. Separate workout room & a paddling pool.

Frank Nwankwo

20211120: Do you know Canal Fitness also has an affiliated indoor paddling "tank" facility for canoeists & dragon boaters to train during the harsh Canadian winter? My team drove all the way from Ottawa to Montreal for a 3-hr session & we were not disappointed. Unlike paddling in a swimming pool, the water in the "tank" is moving and it closely simulates our open-water practices on rivers & lakes. The on-site coach, who was an experienced Canadian National Team racer, video-taped our paddling & then reviewed/evaluated our individual performances. Highly recommended for intermediate & competitive paddlers alike. You will need to call ahead & make a group reservation.

Small friendly gym

(Translated) I visited the section bac to rammer. I was anxious to see this room since I hear a lot about it from friends who make dragon boat. It's really a beautiful concept. (Original) J'ai visité la section bac a rammer. J'avais hate de voir cette salle puisque j'en entend beaucoup parlé par des amis qui font du bateau dragon. C'est vraiment un beau concept.

UPDATE: Changed my review because I saw the owner's response. It was a misunderstanding and it happens. Like I said, I liked this gym otherwise, people are nice and it is convenient. ________________________________________________________________________ I joined this gym almost 2 months ago now, since it is very close to where I live. I saw the equipment is old but I thought I'd give it a shot. The big PROBLEM has been that all summer they have had a policy of no AC. When I asked they said that this was due to some regulatory requirement where gyms couldn't have AC turned on because it spreads COVID. They said that I could ask for a refund (which was nice), but that all gyms have this same requirement so it wouldn't be better elsewhere... Many weeks later I hear from a friend that his gym has had AC all year, and so yesterday I called other gyms in the area to ask. One person literally laughed in my face thinking it was hilarious that a gym would be open without AC! I feel sick working out when it gets close to 30C outside, especially with all the humidity. This alone means I couldn't come more two thirds of the time I wanted to work out. The price is comparative / more expensive than gyms without these limitations in the area. I understand that running AC in a space that large is expensive, but the cost savings of not using it aren't worth members having heat strokes. Staff is really friendly though, nothing but good things to say about them.

Dragon boaters' gym - excellent and experienced staff.

Nice and cozy. Very friendly for new people that aren't used to gym life. Personnel trainers are available for appointments but not included in membership. Totally worth it.

Shannon Castano

Love the location and the equipment. Very clean facility and love that it is designed with paddlers specifically in mind. The first of its kind that I have evrler seen. I think this place will help me get back into shape to paddle after a baby, a back injury and a long break from training.

Victor Périgny

Maria Hotes

(Translated) Very good neighborhood gym. The only downside is the lack of a good ventilation / air conditioning system. For the rest, it's fine! (Original) Très bon gym de quartier. Le seul bémol est l’absence d’un bon système de ventilation/ air climatisé. Pour le reste, ça va!

Julien Létourneau

Super cozy and quiet gym, friendly service and clean, bright room. Would rate 5 stars if there was more equipment, but there's only so much room to put it! Definitely recommend for general training needs.

Brooklyn Hudson

Small, but very friendly and clean, and felt comfortable as a woman. Lots of members from the dragon boat club on the canal if you're into that.

Yoann Lussier

The place is clean, well maintained, functional and the locker room is safe. (Original) La mise en forme offerte dans ce gym est multipartite.
