The Grit Pit

The grit pit is such a great place to get your workout in! Such an amazing group to be in, you always feel welcomed and like a member of a big goofy family! Tammy is great and fun to be around, but will most definitely push you out of your comfort zone and really make you work! The programs that she has done for me have really made a huge difference in my fitness routine and my health (mentally and physically) have definitely benefited from becoming a member

First and foremost I would never consider myself someone who works out! I have joined gyms over the years but my commitment level for exercise just wasn't there. A year ago after a recommendation I joined The Grit Pit which I assumed was going to be just another workout trial for me but to my surprise I kept going, I kept showing up and I kept pushing a little harder everyday. This was happening because of THE GRIT PIT environment. The encouragement by both the instructors and the other ladies working out with me side by side is so positive, the laughter of silly movements, stories of the weekend and just chats about life all while learning what a dead-lift is and performing it with a 50lbs kettle bell makes it fun. This environment completely changed my attitude about working out. I am much more committed than I would have ever thought! It's like meeting up for an hour to have social time while burning 250-400 calories...I call it a WIN WIN!I would highly recommend The Grit Pit. The ladies that you are surrounded by are simply Real. People. who motivate and inspire.

This gym is a hidden gem within Quinte West! Fun atmosphere with highly experienced coaches, working to helpWomen of all fitness levels achieve their goals.

From the first day I walked into the gym I felt safe working out and very welcomed by everyone. I have 4 friends that have joined me in yoga and the group fitness classes and they love every minute of the class as well! I love all of the coaches! They are very motivating and helpful along the way for all of our fitness journeys! So glad to be apart of the grit pit family!!

After I had my baby I was eager to get into shape for the sake of my LO, myself and my family. I looked at all of the Gyms in the area and messaged a few personal trainers . I knew right away after my first work out that this was where I wanted to be.I have been working out there for almost a year, the atmosphere is very relaxed, yet very motivating, everyone young and old is there to have a good workout. There is a wide variety of equipment with many pieces for each type of movement. They have different classes everyday, yoga etc.. even outdoor classes when the weather is nice. The space is kid friendly so if you want to work out and have your children with you, you are welcome to bring them to most classes. Everyone is very friendly.The gym coaches are great and always there to motivate you every step of the way. I've seen so much improvement in myself since I started and so happy I stuck around.Make sure you try out this gym, its a great experience.

Feels like home!The Grit Pit - trainers and members are a community of strong willed - strong minded - strong women who are working hard to achieve their fitness goals! The trainers are dedicated and compassionate - uplifting and motivating and work with you and listen to your goals. There is no ‘I can’t’ when you walk in there - instead the trainers and other members are cheering you on and celebrating your accomplishments! The Grit Pit is more than just a gym - it’s a family and it feels like home.

I am giving this business a 5 star review. As a man I have not personally visited this location as it is a female only studio, but as the husband a beautiful woman who is a client at The Grit Pit, I am extremely impressed at what the owner Tammy has created here in Trenton. The Grit Pit has created a safe and respectful hub for woman in our community to come together to form friendships and bonds through individual personal accomplishments, mutual perseverance and fun challenges to push themselves further than one thought possible. Seeing my wife come home with huge smiles and a sense of achievement from constantly increasing her strength and fitness, making new goals and building social connection is an amazing thing to see from a spouses perspective. Thank you Grit Pit for being apart of this community, you have given my wife a huge sense of pride and accomplishment.

From the moment I stepped through the door at The Grit Pit I knew it was my place. A wonderfully diverse group of women sharing goals to be the best of themselves. There was not a moment of body shaming but lots of encouragement and support. Tammy, Sam and Hailey are all amazing, strong women as coaches and mom's! They offer varying degrees of modifications in their workouts and always push you to challenge yourself. I am proud to say I am part of the The Grit community!

Love love Love ! When I first returned to the gym in September I was nervous I knew that my fitness level was not the same as when I was working out before . Tammy and Hailey encouraged me every step of the way and I started back with one class a week. Now I attend 4-6 times a week because it truly feels like home and I belong. The community is motivating. Encouraging and everyone is welcome and celebrated. I’m so thankful for this community of women and coaches

Amazing place! Love the coaches and the clientele! The Bar-belle club runs 2 nights a week and is a place where you can learn to lift in a non competitive - non judgmental location! Coach Tammy inspires our personal bests and provides an environment that is safe - fun - and inspiring! The Grit Pit is a hidden gem! Coach Tammy is accommodating and easy to work with! She is flexible and communicates professionally! Absolutely love this place and the people!
