If you compare my old review to the current name on this page, you will see that things have…read morechanged and Brampton Crossfit is now Impact Fitness. I have countless great things from my experience when this gym was a Crossfit gym. I'd even tell others who live in other areas to consider Crossfit if they're looking for a new gym or a new approach to exercise. With that said, after several months at Crossfit, I realised that I was beginning to plateau. It's not to say that one can't continuously improve at a Crossfit gym, but if I'm honest, I like having things more or less programmed and prepared for me. Crossfit's workout of the day format offers that structure and is a great way to improve and then maintain fitness - but if you want get to the next level after a few months, you really need to consider doing a personal workout regimen, which many do at Crossfit gyms. The move to Impact Fitness is essentially a way of incorporating the things I loved about Crossfit, such as: group exercise, coaching, greater intensity workouts, heavier weights (if desired), a variety of exercises and other elements. In fact, many of the same exercises and equipment associated with Crossfit are still present. However, the class schedule now has more focus on determining goals, measuring progress and targeting specific areas. The daily schedule essentially operates in offering hour-long classes alternating between two types of workouts. One is 'strength', being weight training. The strength workouts in particular repeat throughout the month in order to continue working on the same area and work towards progressing. The other is 'conditioning', which is comparable to bootcamp styled high intensity interval training (HIIT). Beyond that, the workouts are also structured with either being mostly an upper body, or lower body work out. It allows you to plan your workouts and routine according to your goals, which can be done with the advice and help from the coaches. Effectively, Impact is a place where they have done most of the work in providing a workout plan and structure for members. It's really then just left to individuals to decide what their goals and preferences are, then plan their workout schedule and do the work accordingly. This is still with the benefit of a fun, supportive group atmosphere along with coaching. And hey, if you still want to do an even more personalized regimen, that's still available too.

It is highly recommended to join Impact Fitness to have a dedicated trainer for yourself and reach your fitness goals sooner.

Their prices are also very reasonable when compared to alternative smoothie sources in the area.

The individual attention you get while you are working out and the tailored programs they provide you to attain your goals are amazing. The clients are pretty cool too!

Firstly, Crossfit rocks. A fitness routine that incorporates a dynamic range of movements from…read moreburpees to pull ups to olympic weightlifting movements to sprinting. It pretty much encapsulates various aspects of fitness and tightly packs it into 1 hr classes. If you're really looking to jump start your health, physique and overall athletic ability, you should look no further than Crossfit. Hmm I sound a little brainwashed don't I? Well try it and you'll get brainwashed too. Just to let you a bit of my background pertaining to this, fitness is an important part of my life. I make it mandatory to exercise frequently and a lot of my extra curricular activities are physical (volleyball, dragon boat, adventure racing). I've gone through a whole 90 days with P90X and saw some decent results but I want to push it further and Crossfit seemed like a perfect fit. Location: What attracted me most was the location of this gym. Most of the crossfit gyms are downtown but this one is the only one I've found that is more uptown. That alone, makes this gym a solid choice for those looking to try it out but don't live downtown Facilities: Like most Crossfit gyms, the main elements required empty spaces with pull up bars on the wall, rings hanging from the ceiling, olympic barbells/dumbells, and medicine balls. This gym is not fully equipped like a Goodlife with elliptical machines or exercise machines because that's not really what the sport entails. There is one washroom (no shower) and individual change room that are very well maintained. Overall, the gym is very clean despite having that garage gym feel which is super cool. You can tell how much a gym owner cares by how well they maintain the facilities and it's pristine(Yes, as a Crossfit tradition, you're supposed to collapse to the floor after workout and this floor is very clean). It's a bit small in comparison to the likes of CrossfitTO, but is okay for the average class size (5-8). Classes/Membership: This gym runs on the instructional class methodology with room for specialized programs once you've become familiar with proper form. Like any sport, there are skills that need to be taught properly to avoid injury and ensure proper muscle development. I can't count the number of times I've seen people in the gym lifting big weights but with really bad form. Sure, it's an ego thing and I was like that too but no more. Having instructional classes allow for injury prevention and proper muscle development. As classes are typically not that large (5-8 people per hour), the trainer is able to assist everyone. Classes usually are composed of a strength development component and a metabolic conditioning part (more cardio-esque but with weights sometimes) and last about an hour.(no more of that 2.5 hours at the gym nonsense) Everyone tries to motivate each other during the workouts and the trainers are always being vocal and pushing you along. These classes are ideal for those who don't have much time for the gym but want a workout that is short but high intensity. Trust me, you don't want to work out anymore after just 1 hr here...unless you're crazy. Trainers: Couldn't ask for better bunch of people. They pay attention to your specific needs and suggest things. They scale/modify workouts to your own abilities. They provide you with nutritional advice. They are constantly taking courses to better their understanding of fitness and mobility. They definitely challenge you but don't make you feel like you don't belong. The culture fostered in this gym is definitely one where you can make friends and have social gatherings if you feel so inclined. Overall: Just a great facility overall. As I'll update with a link in the future, this gym was voted best fitness gym in Toronto by the NOW magazine readers! Will post link when available. That alone is a statement in itself. Please don't be hesitant to try it out because you think you're not fit enough. Like I said before, the trainers pay specific attention to everyone and will appropriate workouts according to your own abilities so that you still feel challenged but not pushed over the edge. You have to start somewhere and when you do, this gym will help you see improvements like you've never imagined.

Here's the scene-- i'm in town with a friend and looked for a box that i can go for the week. We buy the unlimited week package. We get there-- and are greeted by Crossfit 416's only redeeming quality-- the front desk guy, Gus. He was super helpful, while Rachel was not on the phone, and found us a cheaper option for the week. We check in, and head to the back. We are greeted by no one, and there were three coaches back there, Luke, Rachel, and Daniele. I had to introduce myself to Luke, and ask "Hi, are you the coach? My friend and I are visiting for a class." He said "yes." That's it. No question of my fitness ability or Crossfit experience. Then, as we were doing the strength portion of the class, the only "coaching" we received from Luke was negative. It was clear to me that during his L1, he learned that the only way to coach is provide negative feedback, and ZERO positive feedback. As two experienced Crossfit athletes, i'm certain there was SOME aspect during our one-hour session that he could have praised. Instead, it was all negative. At one point, he told us "don't be afraid to bend into the swing" while we were doing double KB Russian swings. WHAT? No where have i ever been told to bend into a KB swing. Why Luke was so critical, yet had zero questions about our experience confuses me. But, it was clear that he didn't care about safety. The shitiness of this gym didn't end at the coaching though-- when the next class came in, there was a guy, Ramzi, warming up with kettlebells. One girl thought he was getting too close to the group, and ACTUALLY PUSHED HIM while he was swinging 70lbs of weight. They got into a verbal altercation, and Ramsey told the girl passionately that he "wished she would die", and made some very strange comment about the fact that "God does not exist". 1.) Who pushes someone swinging heavy weight? 2.) What the hell, Ramzi? 3.) Where are the coaches managing this altercation? My friend and I decided not to return to Crossfit 416 and just work out in the hotel gym. Oh wait, i lied-- other than Gus, the other redeeming quality of Crossfit 416 is the soft shirts. Yeah, we bought one to commemorate that time we went to the worst caricature of a box ever.

I've lost 12 pounds, I am much stronger, my posture is better, my back rarely hurts, and my stomach has shrunk considerably and reattached itself to the rest of me. Rahul has taught me a lot about nutrition and continues to encouragingly remind me that if I don't consume enough protein and water, my fatigue will never go away. Heading into this winter, I feel like a different person. I feel hopeful and well-equipped to meet seasonal doldrums. The gym in general is one of the nicer Goodlife locations, the staff is pleasant.
