Afterburn Fitness

Afterburn is the only gym I ever go to! I’ve been going for years and their facilities are top notch; they always have the newest equipment/most unique pieces that you can’t find at many other gyms. The cleaning staff and front desk staff (Michelle) are super friendly. If you’re in to any form of strength training (bodybuilding, Olympic lifting, or powerlifting) CrossFit, or paddling, this gym is definitely for you. They have a plethora of calibrated plates for both powerlifting and oly lifting. They also have squat racks and benches with quick adjusters which make my life way easier. I also have not been able to find any gym as cheap as afterburn that offer comparable equipment. Would 100% recommend!

My go-to facility for paddling and weight lifting over the years. It has all of the essentials you need, can host group workouts, has a paddle pool, and runs one of the best weightlifting clubs in the country - would highly recommend!

Great people and facilities, has special equipment that no other gym has. Always spotless and clean!

Love the people at Afterburn. They are friendly, strong and driven. The price and the equipment they offer are unmatched. If you live in or near Scarborough, this is the place to be to make some serious gains. Also, the events they sometimes host are super fun!

Strongly recommend Afterburn Basics. It's the best economical way to purchase quality gym equipments. Afterburn Basics products are apparently directly imported from the manufacturer overseas, and therefore with no frills. Equipments come in surprisingly good quality. I verified it by purchasing light rack, bench, olympic barbell, adjusted dumbells, 20kg bumper plates, 20kg plates, and some more weights through afterburn basics batch 2. However, as it gets shipped from overseas, you have to anticipate some delays. Understand that overseas logistics has became really hectic during Covid-19, and suppliers have no control over it once its in transit. So, be sure to anticipate some delay, and wait patiently for guaranteed happy ending. At this price level especially during Covid-19, it is safe to assume that Afterburn is doing us a BIG FAVOUR.

Amazing gym. Great community here that will always push you to be the strongest version of yourself.

Great people, great equipment, best place for progressing your dragonboat training! Clean washrooms as a bonus!

Overall a decent gym - it’s smaller than it looks from what’s shown on lifters social media posts but it has everything you really need. Would be nicer to have more space.update: Ownership commented asking to know who I was and poked fun at the idea of being anonymous and asked to know who I am (It must be easy to write “constructive” reviews like this as anonymous.). Needless to the say the point of wishing to remain anonymous has flown over their head - for the owner: I have dropped in a few times - enough to get the idea of what training here is like ( I don't live in the GTA and have came here a few times to get ready for competitions or just when travelling) . Note that I did not say the facility was in bad shape or lacking in equipment - simply that it was smaller than it seemed from social media posts.

First off let me say that all the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, i visited the facility for the first time and I felt so comfortable .Andrew is amazing super friendly helpful and knowledgeable in the fitness industry . i would def recommend everyone check them out for any fitness needs or gym equipment .
