Best Body Fitness

About us

You don't want just a gym membership. You want a membership that means something. And that means you need support, expert help and a community.

Best Body Fitness isn't just a gym: it's a full-service fitness membership made for you.

Here's how it works:

STEP ONE: Your assessment

We begin with an assessment session. This is a chance for you to see what we do at Best Body. Our assessment plans are no-cost and no-risk. We'll also make a training plan specifically for you.

STEP TWO: Your training

When you decide to become a Best Body member, we show you what to do, how to do it and why you are doing it. After a few sessions with an expert private trainer you will feel comfortable working out on your own. But don't worry, we'll always be nearby if you have questions.

STEP THREE: Your membership

Membership works on a month-to-month basis. There are no sign-up fees and no cancellation fees. Start and stop whenever you want. And the best part? Our fees are the most competitive in the whole downtown area.

STEP FOUR: Your community

At Best Body Fitness, we see everyone as part of a big team. And when you work with a team, you can do great things. Join any of our specialised classes, led by expert instructors. Come to our nutrition classes. Participate in our regular social events. Everything is included in your fee.

Finally, we wanted to share with you some reasons why our members say that they have chosen us over any other fitness centre in the city.

I have never gone to a gym. But I thought I'd like to go. I have been to a swimming pool. If I go to a gym, I want there has a pool. I like sports very much. So when I can play sports, it's best. Recently, more and more gyms are available for swimming and sports. I want to go to a gym with such a service. I think there is a running machine in the gym. I like to run, so I want to use it. When I go to the gym, it's important to search to find best one.

I have never gone to a gym since I was born.So, I don't know exactly how a gym like it. But I have the impression that a gym is so good place. For example, I hear training our bodies make our minds be comfortable. In fact, I also felt like it. Therefore I believe we can feel more comfortable than before by doing it. Furthermore, I also hear some people go to gym after they finish working. The reason why is that by running or training in there, they can reduce stress. It is so good thing. Of course, it is so important for our health to train our bodies. So, I would like that we can feel comfortable in a gym.

I have never been to the gym. I will write the sentence assuming I am going to the gym. I think that what I most want from a gym is the wide variety and amount of equipment. These are important points because I pay the gym. I don't want to wait for someone to finish using the machine. I think it's a waste of time to wait. So I want the gym to have a lot of machines. Also, since I am going to the gym, I want to use an unusual machine that is only available in the gym. For these reasons, I value two things.

I have never gone to a gym. I used to exercise like swimming, but I'm not doing anything these days. Because of desk work, I don't normally exercise very much, but when I do it, it feels good to move my body. I hear that working out makes you confident and feel more positive. I'm a little interested in that. Everyone say, it works more directly to the muscle when they use a machine than when they do it .

I wish that there is a treadmill in a gym. I had been to a local gym for a year when I was second year student at a high school. There are various equipment. I used to use treadmill because I wanted physical fitness. I think physical fitness is fundamental to improve athletic ability. I became university student three months ago, so I have little opportunity to exercise. If I start going a gym, I want to use treadmill.

Firstly, I have never been to a gym. However, if I go to a gym, I would like a gym which has a lot of equipment such as treadmill and bench press. Also, I would like many activities. I would like to play sports for example, soccer, basketball, tennis, and running. I would like to exercise while having fun. Secondly, I think it is good to make a training plan specifically for me because I can progress at my own pace. Thirdly, a membership fee is important. I don’t know how much money that costs but I would the cheaper one.

Firstly, I am not an active person in gym because I prefer play tennis or soccer instead. However, to my mind one of the most important thing I considerate when I go to the gym is the fact to be able to communicate with the people in there. This situation push my friends and many people I know to go at the gym everytime they have time to do it. In conclusion, be speakable while you are doing your work out schedule is so helpful for everyone who are seeking keep constantly at the GYM

i recent join to the gym. i think, the gym have got advantage and disadvantage. i would like most in a gym is a lot of equipment. with a lot of equipment you can do many different exercises . also, in the gym, you do exercises by led a instructor. but there are a lot of people in the gym, it is not so comfortable.

I was in a gym but the instructor made me do an exercise that I can't do, so I like to do in my house my exercise.

I recently joined a gym. The gym is around the corner to my house and easy excess. It's not a huge gym with cutting edge technology, but it is small and quiet with limited equipment. And this is what I like about this gym because it's not a very modern gym, no one likes to come here and it's very quiet and peaceful to do the workout. another thing I like about this gym is its staff, they always try to help you and greet you with smile. overall. I am enjoying my gym sessions in this gym.
