| - This beautiful new GoodLife location opened up next to the Markham Cineplex VIP cinemas. Although from the outside it appears on the small side, once you go in and round the corner, it was impressive to have big floor to ceiling windows, wood like panelling, and views of Enterprise and surrounding areas in the weights and circuit training areas. In addition to the usual Life Fitness machines, they have a circuit of Hoist machines, which feel more ergonomic and feel like you're really isolating the muscles you're trying to work on. The Hoist machines made working out fun!
Each of the ellipticals, treadmills, and Precor machines have their own tv screen. Love that there are lots of paper towel and spray stations so you don't have to walk far to get supplies to clean your machine. There are also plenty of mirrors for those who appreciate looking at themselves and their form as they work out .
There is a big group fitness area for classes, as well as a smaller dedicated spin class room. The staff all seem eager to help and showed us around so we could navigate the space with more confidence.
The change rooms are equally nice, with big wood panelled lockers that actually fit a gym bag. There are showers with actual doors that lock for more privacy. They also have a sauna in the change room. There are several benches as well as two lockable private changing areas. And finally there are little lockers just outside the change rooms for those needing just a convenient place to lock up keys or a purse and go for a quick workout.
This is honestly the nicest looking GoodLife location I've been to (it IS new). The only things that could make it better in my opinion would be if they had a pool, and if they offered hot yoga. Really loving this great new gym in my neighbourhood! Oh, and they're open 24/7!
