Julian WilsonA welcoming group of dedicated staff, in a non-intimidating environment helping myself & others achieve there goals. In the short amount of time I've been, I've noticed a change in my mental well-being, and my mobility. Thank you
Natasha FinoroI was looking for something that was going to get me active and back in shape and I knew that the regular gym classes, boot camps and online home workouts were not going to happen. I had tried several times over the years but I couldn't keep myself disciplined to go. I took a chance on Lean Strong Fitness and it has been just what I needed! It was clear from the very first session that the trainers are very knowledgeable and their expertise makes me confident that I won't hurt myself and that I'm getting the most out of every workout. They also provide just the right balance of encouragement and pressure to push myself when I normally wouldn't. Over the past 11 months I have hit my goals of increasing my energy and building muscle. I have surpassed my own expectations and the fact that I can fit in a dress I haven't worn in several years is icing on the cake! I recommend this gym to anyone and especially to those like me who have trouble keeping up the motivation and need that bit of extra attention and feedback to keep on track.
Trudy WinsorThe staff are exceptional at their job and are very welcoming. The atmosphere is fun and upbeat. I love the smaller groups less intimidating than the big gyms. Love how the workout is specific to my needs. Looking forward to continuing to a stronger me.
Kian MerrikhLean Strong Fitness & Wellness (LSFW) and its expert coaches, have helped me stay fit without injury, despite my tendency to always pushing my limits to my own detriment. They slow me down when called for and encourage me to push myself when appropriate. The custom-tailored workouts combined with close supervision have made a tremendous difference in increasing my strength, while reducing chronic pain. A special shout out to Justin, Rebecca, Pam, Jason, and the amazing team behind the scenes for all their amazing support. If you are looking to join a great training gym in the Guelph area to improve your health and fitness, save yourself some time and look no further… LSFW IS IT!
Genevieve NewtonI've been working with Rebecca and Justin at Lean Strong Fitness and they've been great. Very knowledgeable and careful to ensure that I don't aggravate an old injury. I like the environment at LSF - it's not your typical gym - much smaller and more intimate, but with everything that you need. Highly recommend.
Dick AnstettI have had both knees replaced; both hips replaced and an aortic valve replaced with a cow valve. I definitely needed some programmed exercises that would help my situation. The pandemic did not help in allowing efficient and necessary movement even though I did it virtually for awhile. Being back in the gym and with the help of Farnaz the physiotherapist, and Pam and Justin(recent addition to my program) my health and wellness has definitely improved. It has taken awhile but I am encouraged and thankful. They have all been very helpful in my rehabilitation and renewed zest for life. This getting old definitely has its store of "seeds"--not all cherries. Oh yea!! I would recommend this gym to anyone. No matter what age.
Ami DehneWow! Lean Strong Fitness has got it figured out. This isn't your run of the mill gym. They have custom tailored every single workout specifically for my unique needs. I love the focus on strength building, especially as I enter my 40's. Their extensive knowledge and keen eye on form makes every work matter and count. I left my old gym because I was outgrowing it and needed specific focus on form and strength and LeanStrong has nailed it. Plus I'm seeing amazing results. Highly recommend.
Alicia PontesI just recently joined Lean Strong Fitness and have had such a great experience so far. The personalized fitness programs are great as they cater to the individual needs of the person and they are easily adapted by the coaches to intensify the program or modify it to a less impactful/less intensive movement. The coaches are always there for support and will correct form when necessary to avoid injury! I would recommend this gym to anyone without hesitation as I have already noticed a tremendous change in my strength! I am so happy to be part of such a welcoming and great team!
Ben has provided the inspiration and the roadmap to assist me on attaining my personal goals. You won't find someone any better, that really values and cares about your personal success. He really cares!
After several months at Lean Strong, I have been mastering the toe touch matrix (TTM) and often wonder what the purpose is of this silly workout. Little did I realize, not only was this TTM useful, it saved me from what could have been a horrible fall during my recent trip to Malta. If it was not for my TTM workout, my fall and the remaining part of my trip, could have ended badly, but thanks to Lean Strong I am toe touching again, now with a curtsy lunge. You never know when I may meet royalty. Thanks Lean Strong Team.
I would tell my friends that whether you are interested in long-term wellness, trying to get back after an injury and are a bit nervous, or just fine-tuning for a particular race or event, the team at Lean Strong Fitness and Wellness is excellent at helping you identify your goals. They assist with unpacking the steps needed to overcome hurdles, if any, and most importantly, guiding you in your journey in a way that builds your own commitment to you. They really are different and are so amazing at what they do!
Thanks Lean Strong Fitness! That was my first ever 1-1 training session and I loved it - I'm 41 yrs old and can't believe I've waited so long. Having a coach with my training is the best thing I have done with respect to my fitness/lifestyle goals. I'm looking forward to being part of the LSF community and participating in training sessions and seminars!
I am thoroughly enjoying my exercise program and working with the knowledgeable, caring and supportive staff at LSFW. They know their stuff! It is a lifestyle change, not just a workout! I love the blogs we receive from Ben. They are a great mix of information, encouragement, and reflection. I appreciate all the help I get from the coaches at my session, and the regular email I receive asking how is it going? I encourage others to give it a try. It is a lot more than a fitness program, and more support than I have received anywhere else. Great place!
What I like about the program is the attention to detail during workouts, and your work, and diet outside of the gym. Proper form and execution are important, and that is what I believe in getting the results that many of Lean Strong’s clients achieve. Lean Strong is a place that gives you a total fitness and lifestyle package. I am impressed by Ben and his professionalism. He is one of the few who actually want to improve his clients’ health and fitness and care for their well being.
Ben helped by providing a safe and supportive environment while training and helped me start with the basics of certain movements; emphasizing good form, and then worked on slowly increasing what I was doing. The results include (finally) being able to do a floor push up and becoming strong enough that I can lift things that are heavier than me! After I got over my shock and disbelief that I could do it — I felt awesome! I like having a program that is geared towards me because my goals are different that other people’s — I am looking for a workout that helps me in my life and in my free time (i.e. helps me be better when I ride my bike).
The truth is you can get a fitness program from a lot of different professionals in the field. It’s not necessarily what Lean Strong Fitness & Wellness provides me with (although that is part of it) that I enjoy and recommend. Rather, it’s how LSFW provides me with the services they offer. It’s the dedication to the client experience that I witness almost daily (inside and outside of the gym) that makes me confident that I picked the best gym in Guelph. It’s the high standards of customer service. It’s the philosophy and atmosphere. It’s the Team of people working at, and working out, at Lean Strong Fitness & Wellness that make the place such a positive and rewarding experience!
Thank you everyone for all of your support! It’s been a great couple of years. I owe a lot of the wins in my life, and changes to all of you. Thank you for everything that you’ve done for me. I’ve become more confident in my health and training because of all of you at Lean Strong Fitness. I’ve conquered all of my goals since starting at LSF. It’s been WELL worth all of the early mornings.
