Anytime Fitness Transcona

When it comes to fitness, I take it very seriously and have been burned in the past by other local gyms. I was very hesitant to join a gym, but I needed to for my health.My experience has been nothing but unexpected and in a good way as I was expecting to be forced and thrown programs and hustled into buying things I didn't need or worse having a trainer trying throw products and services at me that I do not require.I can confidently say after the last, well, 3 months of going here, this has been one of the best gym experiences I've had in Winnipeg and in my travels across Canada for a few reasons. The first one is that they're genuine. Everyone here is nice they actually care about their their customers and clients, and most importantly, they're on a fitness journey themselves, so there's that genuine connection there.I'm m not lying when I say Luke probably saved my life. He is at the front door he's your main doorman, so generally, when you come in, he's the first face you meet.I came down for a free trial and Luke continued to help me out through the free trial, and eventually convince me to sign on I shared with Luke I have zero trust with gyms because of getting past burned and he understood that he shared his own experiences and he actually cared he listened it wasn't your typical I'm here to listen business talk but he actually listened to what I had to say and he was 'real'I say that Luke saved my life because at the time I was pushing 350 lb That's not healthy and since going to the gym I've lost 45 lb so I'm down to 305 now with Luke's help I was able to trust the gym again and by trusting the gym again I was able to actually sign on with a personal trainer.I started working with Coach Jay, who's been nothing but incredible. guiding me through the workout process taught me the right way to lift and the right way to eat. The workout programs that they provide here are insanely detailed and Incredibly easy to follow and most importantly, as I keep saying, they're genuine and authentic Coach Jay genuinely cares about everyone that comes through that door he wants to see you achieve your fitness goals, and he wants to be part of your journey. I've never met a coach in my entire life of going to the gym we're a coach has been so dedicated to his clients.Without Luke and Coach Jay, I probably would be in a worse health space than I've ever been in my life. And I'm so thankful that they well are part of my health journey so far. You are doing yourself a disservice by not checking this place out at least for the free trial, and I highly recommend it.

Friendly environment, awesome gym!

4.5/5 starsJust started going to this gym for the past 2 weeks. Nice, quiet gym that is conveniently open 24/7 365 days. Equipment is constantly being cleaned and maintained in the evenings. Everyone is super friendly - coach Jay is awesome. Fees are a little high and I wish there was a deadlift platform at this location, but overall I’m a satisfied customer and will continue coming here!

Incredible gym with lovely staff and great atmosphere. It’s always very clean and well taken care of. My favourite gym I’ve been to so far!!

The managing staff at this location is a married couple that are incredibly nice and personable. They really do try to get to know you and make you feel welcome. It's a bit smaller than other gyms but their customer service and cleanliness is unrivalled. I would definitely recommend this gym to everyone, but especially those who are shy since this gym is small and relatively not busy before 3 pm.

Nice facility, good range of equipment. Fitness coaching experience was excellent. The app with workouts will be a big help too.

Very nice gym but do not feel safe at all when I’m the only one wearing a mask. Yes we all sanitize the equipment before and after using but the fact that so many are close without using any masks, it’s very uncomfortable to me. Besides that equipment is great and location is lovely.

Well I joined anytime for a year membership (as I believe they didn’t offer bi-weekly memberships). I did this during Covid peak as my previous gym (which I froze) had severely limited hours and with shift work I needed more access.Overall the course of a year I was quite pleased with the establishment.It was relatively clean, albeit sometimes the showers a little worse for wear and the gym area floor maybe need a sweep /mop a little more often as it often had some bits of gravel/dirt (noticed this during planks or push ups).As it is a much smaller facility the machine variety is limited (makes sense) and overall the cable cross over machine is sufficient and two leg presses a bonus, along with a squat plate loaded machine.I was glad they had one squat/power rack (which is my go to) and one smith (not for me good but for variety).My only issue was when a machine broke down (two had during the course of the membership) it had been weeks-months with no repair. Given the smaller space and limited variety when a machine (if the only for a body part) breaks it’s quite a bummer if not repaired with haste.Cardio is decent (except when the only stair climber they had broke) and the ability to stare off into the distance through the window pleasing. People watching!Anytime is within the strip mall of Plesis and it’s very convenient for post workout shopping, errands, coffee - etc.I’ve gone back to my old gym for more access to deadlift platforms, squat racks, stair climbers, etc. however I can’t say for sure if I’d never try anytime again in the future or if they offered a smaller contract membership.Staff are friendly enough and seem to have a good rapport with customers and I have seen a positive environment between other clients as well.Overall rating I gave is 4/5 (minus one star for machine repairs in a timely manner)

Gym stinks. Literally has a weird smell. Half the treadmills don't work. Has 1 set of handles for the cable machine and they don't even match and the weight racks and dirty.
