GoodLife Fitness Richmond Street West

Not too busy on a Sunday. Nice gym on Richmond & John across from Barry’s bootcamp. Was able to get a good gym/workout session without waiting too long for any machines. 7min walk from osgoode station.

Beautiful gym space. It also wasn’t very busy, mind you I went on a Saturday. Well equipped and neatly organized weights. As a dedicated weightlifter, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the weightlifting facilities. The gym is well-equipped with a wide variety of free weights and resistance machines, allowing for a comprehensive workout routine. One of the things that immediately impressed me was the organization of the weightlifting area. The weights were neatly arranged, making it easy to find the specific equipment I needed. Additionally, the lighting was excellent, providing clear visibility for proper form and technique. Although I didn't participate in any classes, I observed that the gym offered a diverse range of group fitness activities. This is a great option for those who prefer a more social and interactive workout experience. Overall, I was very satisfied with my first visit to this GoodLife Fitness location. The gym's weightlifting facilities are top-notch, and the staff is friendly and helpful. If you're a weightlifter looking for a clean and well-equipped gym, I highly recommend giving this location a try.

Thanks to the new lady manager—she is truly different from the other managers in this club. On Monday, February 3, 2025, one of the regular counter staff members didn’t show up. When I arrived at the club at 5 PM, I saw the new lady manager actively helping with organizing a huge number of towels and distributing them to members during the club’s busy rush hour. From 5 PM to 9 PM, every time I passed by that area, I saw her working hard. As a longtime GoodLife member, I rarely see managers leaving their comfortable offices, let alone stepping out to assist like this. Since she was appointed as the manager of this club, the staff have become noticeably more polite and friendly, and the club—especially the men’s change room and saunas—is much cleaner than before. Before leaving at 9 PM, I made sure to express my gratitude and appreciation for her dedication.

Starting my fitness journey felt overwhelming until I began working with Manish. He's been an incredible personal trainer, especially for a beginner like me. Manish takes the time to explain everything clearly, ensures I have proper form, and keeps me consistently motivated. He's fantastic at helping me stay focused during my workouts and has played a huge role in helping me reach my initial goals. His cheerful and encouraging personality makes each session something I look forward to. If you're looking for a supportive and effective trainer, especially if you're new to the gym, Manish is the perfect choice.
