$20/month is tempting; only paying $24/month at sn brentwood doe..

didn't know this was a 24 hour gym as well. I guess Anytime fitness is gonna take a hit since they're literally 1 block away from each other lol

Anybody go to Steve Nash? They offered me $799 for 12month plus 6mth free which works out to be $45 a month. They also told me after the contract it will be only $16/mth. Want some input here, im not sure if i want to lock myself up for 1.5 years, i know they have quite a bit of locations in lower mainland.

^ That's interesting. I used to be with Steve Nash (just under $600 for 12 +7 months free. I got a corporate discount through work), but they never offered me the $16/month deal afterwards. They wanted to keep me at around $30/month so I quit and decided to look at other gyms for now.

Also the 7 months free that they offered me was kind of weird but I'm assuming it was to keep me until the end of the year and force me to pay the maintenance fee.... something to keep in mind.

One more note is if you're planning to go to the kingsway location (near metrotown) I would advise against it. I live near that one and always went to the lougheed steve nash location. The one by metrotown is a gong show for parking.

I'm currently at Steve Nash and my contract is already over, paying roughly $35 monthly now. Thinking about cancelling my membership since my school has a $5 a month plan at the regular Steve Nash locations lol

Okay i'll lol at you next time. I was just there for a week until goodlife opened up. RSF is way better than shitcentral. I was actually starting to like RSF a lot. After going to at least 6 different gyms in the GVA, I'd say shitcentral is probably the worst

really? I find that people that are involved with MMA and such like it better there. But for weights and such, SC is better. RSF is straight grimey.

How are you guys liking the new GoodLife so far. It's been awhile since I've been to a commercial gym so I'm still getting used to it.
Wished the lighting by squat racks were better.

Also a regular member at this location. Love it.

5 private washrooms w/ 4 of them having showers, full towel service, everything's immaculate and they're always cleaning the place, and they've been working on an expansion for the past several months so it's twice as big now.

On the pricier side; but if you can afford it, you wouldn't want to go to any other gym

New goodlife, no chalk, no 'dropping the weight' while deadlifting.

Dealbreaker.
