Burlington Fitness & Racquet Club

Awesome Gym! Great culture is definitely a hidden gem when it comes to all the gyms in Burlington.

Friendly staff and large space to workout. It’s like a community centre, I always feel welcomed.

Been a member for almost 10 years. Culture changed With the recent change in ownership, staff and general manager LF were border rude. Although I had no intention on leaving, I had to cancel my membership because of how I was treated

Staff is super friendly and helpful. So many workout classes and a great recovery treatment options!

Never have to wait for equipment, no matter when you go. There are no egos. Everyone can exercise comfortably. The staff is always friendly.

BFRC is the full package!
I love the friendly welcome I get as I pick up my towel. I mainly play squash and it's nice to have the gym and classes to balance out my workouts. Having food and drink on site is a bonus. All in one club!

It's nice to have indoor tennis courts. But the building needs some serious upgrading. The new owners have been doing a good job of making minor improvements. But a major overhaul is needed to eliminate the mould-infested carpeting under the rubber floor in the main workout area, and the bathrooms really need complete updating. The parking lot also needs a major overhaul.

This gym is one of the best fitness gyms in Burlington if you are looking exclusively at gym amenities. It has an amazing selection of free weights including a dumbbell rack that goes up to 140lbs and a huge selection of different bars ie.yoke, hex, log, farmer carries etc.and old but great machines like a donkey calf raise along with some more modern, functional equipment like a strip of astroturf and sled, kettlebells, olympic rings etc. It also has all of the essential cardio machines, spin class room and zumba style studio with a lot of open space along with a sauna. It does look pretty rough with a weird smell and washrooms that are falling apart but in the end, its a gym, not a hotel. Ultimately, the volume and variety of equipment at your disposal here that is very hard to come by in a gym when the market is saturated with uninspiring, big box gyms full of cardio equipment is refreshing.

Really friendly front desk staff, not crowded and very clean. Really interested to see the updates that are coming and if that will include new equipment in the weight room area.

So, since this place was finally sold to new management, there were promises of “million dollar renovations” that were supposed to transform this creaky, dying old gym into a modern, updated fitness mecca. We have been waiting and so far, very little has changed, either with the building itself, the two aging spinster sisters, Christine and Marianne who run the same old dated classes or the lack of amenities. And now we see Christine is submitting glowing online reviews on herself. Isn’t this a conflict of interest? Time to move on and with a bright beautiful new facility coming soon to a north end mall our time at this place is coming to a long overdue end.
