Steve Nash Fitness World

I could’ve sworn I’ve written a review on this place, not just that I’m a member, but I digress.
For a Vancouverite, this is a convenient location when being lost in Surrey/​Delta. Being located in a huge plaza with London Drugs, Staples, and this gym wrapped around the corner, can be tough to find.
Facility is a bit cramped especially the tread machines. Same for the weight rooms, if it wasn’t for the high ceilings, it would be claustrophobic.
Men’s change rooms, while a bit compact, is actually well laid out; after all, how can one mess up a rectangular formation lol. they do have unique benches that run parallel.
Parking has always been good, and if you’re lucky, the front aisle is close to the roof, so you can only get wet if it’s raining, for about a feet or two.
right off 72^nd Ave.

I enjoy my time in this gym. Been a member for 3 years, but only really started using my membership 3 weeks ago. Only thing I would recommend is stay away during peak hours. Can’t handle the volume. Otherwise, staff is friendly, trainers trying to get your business are a bit pushy, but understanding they are getting it from management I can cope, and it’s clean.
All the equipment is well taken care of, everything is fairly new, no longer have old machine… try it!

Beware of any Steve Nash Fitness establishment! We signed up for an 18 month membership (prepaid $ 700 each; South Surrey). In February of 2015 we canceled the membership stating we did not wish to renew. In the past week a charge for $ 51 appeared on our credit card for continuation of one membership. Apparently when we canceled only one membership was canceled. We were not extended the courtesy of a phone call or email to advise us of the renewal (?) of one membership. Now we are expected to pay for their inaccuracies and incompetence! Upon going into the facility we were advised it takes up to 30 days to cancel a membership! This is absurd! How presumptuous of them to think we (or even one of us) would wish to continue especially in light of the fact neither of had used the facility in several months. We NOW use the South Surrey Rec Centre which is FAR superior to Steve Nash!

Gyms, something I consider somewhat of a specialty. I am a fan of Steve Nash gym’s mostly because they are various locations and depending on my schedule, I can get a workout in at most of their locations.
This particular locations is okay at the most. I feel it’s overcrowded during peak times and don’t have a lot of the equipment that you would expect from a gym. Until recently, they only had 1 squat rack and 1 smith machine. Recently, they’ve added the framework for 3 more racks but they they are always being used by the personal trainers or stretching.
The gym does have a studio, where there are a decent number of classes and it has a ladies only gym as well. A great feature to attract the demographic in the area but at the end of the day, if you are looking to get a solid weightlifting workout during peak hours (4−7pm), you’ll find yourself waiting in line for the equipment.
People aren’t courteous enough to re-​rack the weight and a lot of teenagers around that end up taking machines and chatting. The staff is nice and helpful but I find them constantly picking up the weights after immature crowd. RE RACK YOUR WEIGHTS PEOPLE! The gym tries to do a lot, with limited space. At the end of the day, if you are in the area and have to get a workout in and it’s not peak hours, well and good. If not, you’ll find yourself waiting around.

No sense of compassion. My dad died unexpectedly & I didn’t get my membership cancelled in time as I had to leave town right away to help my mom with burial arrangements. I even provided Steve Nash Fitness with a copy of the obituary, but they still want to charge me enrolment fees even though I have cancelled my membership. I haven’t even been to any of their fitness clubs in approximately 8 months. What kind of company has such lack of compassion? You have the power & flexibility to make it right Shame on you Steve Nash, adding more hurt to me mourning process!

Better than Cambie street location. Parking is good. Less attitude. A lot of South Asian people working out and nothing wrong with that. They train hard and give it. Clean and big. I like it.

As a long time ‘Fitness World’ member I don’t get out to this part of town, more like never, and when I do, if I’m lucky and I have time (and also my gym gear) I try to get a workout in and see how the other locations compare to the one’s I frequent. After escaping the Vaisakhi Parade we decided not to leave the area but get in a workout, and it probably was a good day to go as everyone was probably there, and the traffic was insane to even escape the area. Coming in here, this is no reno, this place is smelling of ‘new’ as a gym with no wasted space.
The parking situation is very good, the one thing that I do bitch about on some of their locations, this one does not have that problem, being in a new plaza, there is a good amount of parking in the front of this place that does not deter you from running away from your regiment. Once you enter the place feels like all work. as in. get your butt to the changing room and get ready to sweat. This place is welcoming as every workout machine seems pretty new, and if your one who needs something to distract you while doing cardio, rest assured there are enough tv’s playing something in here, and we are not just talking small things you need to squint your eyes on, but big projector styled ones. I think I watched a whole period of hockey comfortably while peddling on the bike machine.
The weight area is nice, as it’s broken up in two sections with some machines that I have not seen other SNFW having. For the ladies, there is a seperate area for them to workout in, didn’t notice how big that area is in, but from my dear, it was good. They have a pretty big vending machine serving up water if you forgot your own and can’t drink tap! The one major plus is the changing room, nice bright, benches spread out so nobody is bumping into eachother, and there are seperate stalls for people to change in if they are embarrased to change in front of others, a nice little touch, as you really don’t see many of these, unless your using the washroom stall to hide and change in.
I wish the other SNFW gyms where like this, and this wasn’t that far, I would come more often here if not for distance sake.

Awesome gym. Great on weekdays after 7PM. The stretching studio is massive and you can take advantage to loose that belly fat. I can’t think when I have to wait for free weights.

I really wanted to like this location ’cause it is just two blocks away from the house of the guy I am dating and I can get in a workout with no excuse. It is a newly built location, however, I had high hopes for this and was disappointed. There isn’t a shortage of cardio machines which is a plus as this means less wait times, however, for a new location, it fails me in the quick circuit area. The machines seem outdated, possible left overs from other locations that had upgrades recently. The toning machines are more counterproductive than they are productive. The only plus that this location has that the others lack is a machine to specifically work the lower back and obliques (sp?), the love handle area that everyone wants to work on. Why is it that the other locations don’t have this. The only use I see for this location, outside my regular location, is to have a quick 30 minute cross training burn and nothing else. I agree with Dianne that the staff here are more interested in each other than the actual cliental. I felt as though I was an inconvenience asking for a simple question. The guy at the desk didn’t know what a circuit training section was as he pointed to the wrong section. Thankfully I am somewhat self sufficient when it comes to my work outs.

It’s a little small, and can get very busy at times. Advantage of Community Centres is actual like basketball gyms and swimming pools as well as a weight room whereas this is just a weight room.
Now that sun god is brand new this is relatively a bad deal. But if you want to be able to go to gyms in different locations lets say you live in Surrey/​Delta and want to be able to workout here or in Vancouver the chain allows you to use the pass everywhere. The hours are pretty good, they close early on Saturdays which I don’t like but I can live with.
Staff is nice, its good if you don’t want teens around. Most of the people are 19+. They have a kids area and a women’s area, I am neither but I can see the advantage if I ever wanted someone to watch over my child while I worked out.

I’ve always preferred community centres over chain gyms for working out but there are a lot of positives to this facility, not the least of which is all the brand new equipment. It’s nice to have lots of machines, all of which are usable, all the time. I guess that’s the advantage of being a private business rather than a city run facility on a municipal budget. Monthly fees are okay, same as all other FW’s, and there is a steady stream of promotions but they’re not overly pushy with them. The hours are great and it’s in a great location for me as well but the deal breaker is the childminding. The women that watch the kids are all great; my daughter loves going to hang out with them! They watch the kiddies every day, twice a day Monday to Thursday, 9:00– 1:00 and 4:00 — 8:00, and Friday Saturday, Sunday mornings, 9:00 — 1:00. The only way these place can distinguish themselves from one another (they all offer the same basic services) is through their customer service and the staff at this facility all seem to be friendly, helpful and accomodating, although I don’t really interact with them all that much beyond the usual «Hi» and «see you later».
