Community Fitness Connection Centre

Overview
I travel quite a bit for work but also have been training regularly...so I know what entails a good gym! This is a great place to work out while on work trips and you can't make it to your normal workout joint.

Equipment
Great selection of free weights and machines. For the gym connoisseurs, it is a bit cramped but you won't feel it too much. 2 Smith-type squat racks, 1 free squat rack, incline bench and flat bench. Many machines for isolation exercises. Leg press and hack squat machine as well. Also a plethora of cardio machines.

Cleanliness
Very clean, and many spray bottles ans wipe down towels available. Did not use washroom or change room so I cannot comment.

Hours
24/7!

Ease of parking
Don't park on the same side, park across the street 10m away so no risk of being towed as they are next to a body shop and some spots are shared.

Access
The process is a bit convoluted as you have to download 2 apps. 1 for the membership and 1 for the door. Once you have a membership you go onto the door app and it should load. For those that are not very technical you will have a bit of a hard time. Tech savvy peeps should have minimal issues. May need some tech support from your buddies if you are older. Once it starts working the apps work well.

Food/Drinks
No vendor or machines on site, only a water fountain. BYO sport drink.

Great members and equipment is decent. However, I had a very poor experience with the business and their fob system. They very quickly blame the members for their poor system and they have zero tolerance or understanding with the members that pay for the place to be open. I’m glad I only passed through for a short work trip, because I would be very disappointed and dissatisfied with the only fitness facility in town getting away with how they treat their members. Volunteer or not, be a human being and develop better relationships, please.

Best small town gym with cardlock access ive been to. Rack, bumper plates, well maintained equipment, A/C... Just one GHR shy of perfect

I travel around Alberta regularly and I have to say the owner(s) of this gym do an amazing job ensuring around the clock accessibility. There's no membership that will get you into a gym all over alberta, but if your in the Crowsnest Pass area this is the spot.

Well kept, clean and a great selection of equipment for both cardiovascular and resistance training. Not to mention a great price point.

This is a little hidden paradise. This fitness center is better than some big town gyms. I met one of the managers while there and you can tell the staff take great pride in the facility. Highly recommend for anyone passing through or in the area for work. You purchase the key fob on their website and then go and pick up the pass at the local coffee shop. very issue to renew if your time in the area is extended.
