Reviews of Rep1 Fitness - Kitsilano & Vancouver Personal Trainer (Gym)

Mia Johnson

I love this gym. I've been training here for six years. They are the best at bringing out your abilities and building on them, whatever level you are at - even a total beginner like I was.

I've been going to Rep 1 for over 6 years and can highly recommend them for individual fitness training. During the early days of Covid they were closed but offered online sessions which I participated in. For the last few months they've been able to open up again and I'm glad to be back in the gym. Their Covid protocols are exceptional and I've never felt at risk now that I'm back in the gym. Hats off to Scott and Chad and the rest of the staff for their ongoing commitment to keeping the gym open and safe!

David Turnbull

The facility is great! Rep1 is run by 3 amazing trainers that are owners so they really know what the clients and other trainers want/ need

Lori Wotherspoon

I've been going to Rep One fitness since it opened. The whole team are professional and knowledgeable. Scott has been training me for years and his skilled training sessions have been keeping me fit and free from pain and injury. Their strict Covid protocols make me feel safe every time I workout even during these difficult times. The place is spacious, super clean and very well organized! I highly recommend this personal training gym!

Craig Chilton

Best on the west side. Great facility, great trainers. Dave Moloney knows how to get the best out of you and is very attentive to proper technique and form.

I trained at Rep1 for over 2 years and during that time I was introduced to Jess, their RMT and that introduction changed my life. It sounds crazy but I had been pushing through tension headaches from computer work for almost a year, accepting that it was chronic. I had seen RMTs before with some, but not significant relief. Jess was different. She is the best RMT I have ever worked with. From the first session I was headache free...I couldn’t believe it and continued to see her as preventative/maintenance. While she was away recently I couldn’t bring myself to see anyone else and could not contain my excitement when Rep1 told me she was back. I thought about why...and it’s because she is someone who improves my quality of life. I’m a young mom running a very busy company and Jess makes my life easier and more enjoyable. 5 stars isn’t enough...

Best place to train my clients. Amazing atmosphere and people here.

A spacious gym with tons of different equipment and very professional trainers. Not open for drop-ins!

Laurey at Rep1 is an excellent trainer! She always plans a high intensity workout that is at the perfect level for me, and the exercises change every session to give me new challenges. I have been coming to Rep1 for 3 months and already see big improvements in my strength and stability thanks to Laurey's coaching. I am now much more confident weight training on my own and I am setting new Strava personal records on my bike. I am really glad I decided to try out personal training with Laurey - it has been a big boost to my physical and mental health! I checked out a few gyms offering personal training before choosing Rep1. The atmosphere at Rep1 is very welcoming to all ages and fitness levels. To keep everyone safe during the COVID-19 pandemic, each client gets their own station to train (it is a large facility, so it is easy to practice physical distancing, even with multiple clients working out at once), masks are mandatory at all times, and the trainers have a gap between client sessions to give them extra time to sanitize the equipment. I look forward to continuing my training at Rep1.

Meeka Marsolais

Love training at Rep 1. It’s a positive, high energy environment. Rep 1 has great facilities and it’s easy for me to get ready for work after my morning workout!

Mimi Meier

Jes is a great RMT who has really helped me stay away from getting injured. She is very knowledgeable and gives great stretches and advice to stay healthy.

Mat Goodkey

I’ve seen Jes for massage countless times and she’s the best! As a fitness professional and manual therapist myself it’s great to have someone who’s so knowledgeable of training and athletic movements. Great results every time, and a great experience. If you’re experiencing pain, or just need a massage this is the RMT I trust the most!

Marlene Dong

My husband and I have been going to Rep1 twice a week for 5 years. We love our workouts (they're never the same), our trainers (Dave Moloney + Cameron Bentley), the owners (Mike, Chad and Scott are pros all around), the front desk staff (Sarah + Nadine), the other trainers (friendly and supportive), and the facilities (clean, modern, spacious). It all adds up to a great environment for getting fit and having fun. Rep1 really prioritizes service, quality and wellbeing. We're considered older clients, and our trainers (past and present) have always listened to our bodies and our fitness goals. Compatibility and trust are very important because trainers see us at our best and at our worst. We can't say enough good things about Rep1 -- except that without their expertise and support, my husband and I wouldn't have been able to complete our first-ever half marathon this year. Thanks for being our ally and champion, Rep1!

JC Morton

This placed has changed my life. It's the rock in my week. Mark is fantastic, honored to be a part of this community.

Linnea Saltel

Laurey at Rep1 has been my trainer for the past 5 months, and she is incredible! She is very knowledgeable, empathetic, down-to-earth, fun, and always positive (even when I’m not, haha). Although I’ve always been quite active in other endeavours, I’m honestly in the best shape ever because of her- I’ve even realized I have muscles that I wasn’t aware of until I started training with her! If you’re in Vancouver and looking for an amazing trainer, I would highly recommend you contact Laurey at Rep1 Fitness.

Grayson Allen

I've been going for nearly four years. Without any doubt, it's a superb facility and experience. The greeting is always warm and friendly - good job, Claire and Sarah! I've had a number of trainers over the years, but Dave M. is absolutely the best! Committed, caring, knowledgeable and inspirational. A special shout out to Gui for his excellent Circuit Class, the best way to start your weekend, both entertaining and challenging. And kudos to everyone for the work you do to combat breast cancer - what a great group of people! Graham Allen

Barb Morris

From the front door to the designated client space, Rep1 goes above and beyond. Come here for the fitness and leave with that, a great experience and no worries about spread. You keep your nose masked here.

Aaron Lubell

The trainers at Rep1 actually make it fun to train. My wife and I are in our early 70's and we even get to shoot hoops with our trainer, Chad! Clean, modern and professional place to work out.

Cream Puff

I first started coming to Rep1 back in 2015 and I have to say, I love this place. I did end up leaving a while back because I had a baby and moved out of the area. In the end though I decided to return because looking back, I was probably in the best shape of my life when I was working out with the trainers here, plus I always enjoyed my workouts. What really sets this place apart for me though is that it has a real family vibe going on and you are always made to feel welcome. Highly recommended :)

Kimberly Palmer

I cannot say enough about Rep 1 and what an amazing personal training space this is! It is professional, friendly, safe, and for me, a home away from home. I love the sense of community here where everyone knows one another. I feel safe knowing that all of the areas are cleaned after each use and Zeroblast antimicrobial treatment is also applied. The personal training is top notch. Thank you Mark Pottie! The FST (Matt & Guy) and massage therapist (Jes) are simply the best therapists around! I love that you can both train here and treat your ailments at the same location. This is a truly unique space.

James Bayley

Love this place. best in town!!! The atmosphere and positive attitude give me a big step up to deal with my week. The trainers and staff are very friendly and make everyone feel super welcome. They helped me overcome some nagging mobility issues after a major surgery,.... couldn't have done it without you guys/gals. Thanks!!

Belinda Gutman

Best gym in the city. All the trainers are top-notch! All levels of fitness get an amazing work out.

Thai Truong

Really clean facility and trainers have great experience. The atmosphere in the training gym is very different from a regular workout gym. A very professional environment and great interaction between trainers and clients. Andrew is quite knowledgeable and the sessions have helped in my training significantly.

Charmaine Hermann

Jes is an amazing massage therapist! She has been treating me and my daughter for over 5 years and helped us through various athletic injuries and chronic pain issues. She pinpoints the problem areas and provides lasting benefit every visit. I highly recommend her - she is very skilled, knowledgeable, and truly a wonderful person.

Roxie Lewin

Jes is both an incredible human and an extremely talented massage therapist. She goes above and beyond for her clients, as she genuinely cares about their health and well-being. She is deeply attune to my needs and goes to great lengths to help me heal. She is such a professional, and because of her strong understanding of human anatomy she is able to not only make me feel better during/ after my massage, but also give me stretches and exercises so I can be proactive about my recovery. If you're looking for an awesome massage, look no further!

Christina Ivy

Rep1 is a home away from home! Everyone makes you feel welcome and comfortable, regardless of your ability! The trainers are excellent and really push you! Mark and Cam really helped me with my personal fitness goals after being away from the gym for 10+ years! Go Team!

Norman Buchignani

Rep1 is a special place--especially so during this pandemic. Rep1 is exclusively based on personal trainers, either one on one or one on two. There are no drop-ins or classes. Every client-personal trainer unit gets a unique, completely segregated work area for the time they are together. Physical distance from others is high, and 100% of people wear masks. Strongly recommended.

Shahdad Samimi

Great private gym. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Variety of trainers to work with

Tara Toews

This place has been a life saver over the past year providing a safe, uplifting place to train. They have continued to provide the same attentive training and professionalism during this unprecedented time of additional health and safety protocols. I started seeing my trainer in November of 2019. Cam has been an amazing support and butt kicker to attain my fitness goals. I look forward to my continued relationship with them now and in the future.

Shannon Vrlak

I think Rep 1 is the best gym on the westside! Outside of the amazing and knowledgeable trainers who support you with your health and fitness goals the kits location is great with plenty of free parking so you can slide right into your workout.

Margie Scherk

Professional, friendly, clean. A selection of excellent trainers, each with a different set of experiences and skills to offer. The trainers and the clients stick around for years. I think that says a lot.

Lori Billson

Lori Billson I've been training with these Gents for 20 years...need I say more?! Integrity, talent and genuinely fine human beings. I can't imagine my world without Rep1.

Our entire family has been training at Rep1 for 3 years and I have lost 130 lbs! First class amenities, clean and large space unlike other gyms in the city. Professional, extremely friendly staff from Sarah in the front to Eyvon in the back office. The owners, Chad, Mike and Scott, have been trainers for over 20 years and know the industry extremely well. My trainer Gui has guided and encouraged me to achieve fitness goals I thought were impossible. He also runs a drop in group circuit class Saturday mornings that's challenging but fun and open to everyone. I also train with Jamiel, who's enthusiasm and dedication to fitness is contagious both to clients and staff!! Rep 1 is a second home for our family.

Catherine Brown

Jess is the best massage therapist on the planet

John Kim

Well equipped and large space in Kits. Great group of instructors - personable and happy!! If you want to give ‘er, without the snooty and pretense, this is the place for you.

barbara gelfant

i have been training with Mike for 21 years. I look forward to going every time. He always knows exactly what I need in each session. He has helped rehab me from a car accident and is always very careful if I have an injury. He motivates and challenges me and I've never been so fit in my life. Mike is the best trainer in the city. I am very grateful to be able to train with him.

Kim Spencer-Nairn

The long awaited return of Jes Von Henzke, RMT extraordinaire, best massage therapist in town.

Evan Coltart

The Rep1 team is outstanding. Positive, welcoming and knowledgeable are just some of the many attributes that keep me coming back. I am also very impressed with how they have managed to navigate through this past difficult year, ie. online training offerings and all the appropriate safety measures they have implemented in the gym. Having a designated zone all your own to work out in has been an absolute treat!

mike knells

Whatever you do Do not train with Erica Leung she injured me really badly the worst training i have ever had

Brigitte Loranger

Rep 1 has a dedicated team and they are taking the Covid protocols very seriously, allowing us to feel safe while keeping fit and healthy

Braden Haggerty

Easy to access, friendly environment. Great training. I have been enjoying my experience art Rep 1.

Alicia Gadban

Best gym in the city!! Super fun, relaxed atmosphere with equally amazing staff! Highly recommended.

Kimberley Santerre

Great personal trainers, accommodate my needs, good variety of equipment, free parking!

Lorna Eberle

I have been to Rep1 many times and find the facility bright and clean. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, willing to go that extra mile. An added plus is available parking.

Laura Dowling

As a former hp athlete Jes provides world-class deep tissue massage, all while caring for your overall health and well-being. I totally recommend Jes for RMT and the trainers at Rep1 are pretty awesome too! Always look forward to a session here.

Ted Steiner

This is a beautiful gym, friendly staff, very flexible, easy parking, always clean, and really accommodating. I've been going here for years. I wish I could pay someone to work out for me, but since I have to do it myself, at least Dave makes it fun and changes things up so much that I'm never bored. More importantly, all the trainers here really know their craft and value my health and fitness goals and limitations.

Morgan Lafleur

I have been training at Rep1 for 6 years now and whether I am working through an injury or working to reach my fitness goals, my trainer always customizes my workouts accordingly. The facility is great and the staff is super friendly!

Finola Gaughan

Rep 1 Fitness is absolutely fantastic! I’ve been training with Laurey G for a while now and she is so positive, fun, down to earth and is amazing at what she does. Even on days when you might not feel very motivated, Laurey will lift you right up and you leave feeling 100% better! I highly recommend anyone to join Rep 1 Fitness as the facilities are great and all the staff are so welcoming!

Cyndi Ankenman

I love this gym. The trainers are great, they push you to achieve your goals. It is a fun environment. Some of the best trainers I have had!

Doreen Indra

I have been using Rep1 for the last five months during the pandemic. Rep1 is an extremely well organized place with good social distancing and an exclusive place for each person to work out in. Super personal trainer, Anna.

Tara Mackay

Rep 1 facility and staff are beyond amazing! No matter what the fitness goal is, Rep 1 team is there to help you achieve it!

Bippan Dhillon

I have been working out with a trainer at Rep1 for the last 3 months. It has been a great experience. She has completely customized the workout for the results I am looking to achieve. The staff is super friendly. Definitely worth the investment! Go for it!

Alison Palmer

I was reluctant at first about going back to the gym during the COVID-19 pandemic. Once Rep 1 had all their procedures in place, I felt very confident in returning to my personal trainer workouts. I am very impressed with the arrangements that they have in place - from individualized workout spaces with proper social distancing to the very conscientious cleaning protocols of equipment and safety. Well done everyone and my trainer Mark rocks!

Fanny Torres

I had my very first personal training session with Laurey G. on Tuesday April 6th and I have to say she was amazing! She explained to me every step of the fitness evaluation so I could get the objective of it. I am happy that we will continue working together :)

Nancy Pereira

Personal, professional and qualified trainers that provide a great place and atmosphere to workout in. Rep 1 trainers are some of the best in the city.

Donna Hohl
