We are now up and running! Short term memberships have had unused time added to their cards. Long term memberships will have their next payment taken out on March first. Keep an eye on our FB page.

Good news! We are going to reopen on Thursday, February 18 at 8 am. Our reopening is under the Orange - Restrict zone. Workouts must be limited to 60 minutes and all protocols must be strictly followed. Short terms members - All unused, pre paid days have been added to your card. Long term members - Your first payment will come out on March first. Looking forward to seeing you at the gym!

As per the Premier's announcement today, the stay at home order is in place until February 16th for our area. We hope to re-open on February 17 subject to our zone colour in the framework for Sarnia Lambton Health Unit. We will update you with any new information as soon as we learn more. Happy Valentines Day everyone!

Our closure will now be extended due to the "Stay at home" order which will begin tomorrow and run for 28 days. Check back here for any future updates as they unfold. Stay safe.

SPECIAL NOTICE: As a result of the Premier's announcement today, we find it prudent to pull the "Free Trial" offer previously advertised. We will still honour the "Snowbird Special". We will make this offer again in the future once it is safe to do so.... Take care.

Have a Happy Halloween. Stay safe out there!

When you feel like quitting Think about why you started

If you have been stuck in quarantine to help flatten the curve, now come back to the gym to help flatten your stomach!

In our efforts to keep everyone safe, we are not offering day passes this holiday weekend. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Just a reminder......You must wear a mask 100% of the time you are in the gym, even when you are working out when no one else is there. If you happen to see someone working out without a mask, private message us, stating the date and time. We will check our cameras and deny access to their card. Thank you for your help in keeping us all safe!

This has been a difficult time for all small businesses, including gyms. We want to thank our members and friends for their continued support during these trying times.

Just a friendly reminder that our membership services hours this weekend are Saturday 8-12, Sunday 8-12 and Monday 8-12. Have a great holiday weekend!!

Grand Bend Gym mandates wearing masks the entire time you are in the gym. Interesting article supporting mask wearing safety for gyms http://globalnews.ca//cleaning-disinfectant-coronavirus-s/

It has been a long four months and we want to thank our members for their continued support and kind words. Dr. Jim Jean sent us a message, in part, "It has only been a couple of days since reopening but everyone when I was there practiced all sanitation protocols, including wearing a mask, hand disinfecting and social distancing." Three times a week we have professionals deep clean all areas. Every hour, approximately ten times a day, we use sanitizing spray on all equipmen...t including seats, pads, pins, barbells and dumbbells. We exchange the ab mats several times a day, leaving 2 for use between cleanings. We have limited the number of people working out to 8 per studio at any one time. Yes, wearing a mask makes you hotter so we have turned the a/c cooler. Just a reminder to come in your workout clothes, carrying your shoes, bring your water bottle as no fountain is available. Showers, sauna and hot tub are closed. And you must wear a mask at all times. People have reported to us that they feel much safer knowing that everyone is wearing a mask. Thank you for doing your part! See more

Great news!! We have been allowed to enter Stage 3. We will reopen this Friday, July 24th. Check back here tomorrow afternoon for full details.

Hi all, we are as disappointed as you are. Lambton county has been left behind in phase 2. We will keep you updated with any new news as soon as we know!

We are patiently waiting for the Premier to announce gym openings. Be assured that we have socially distanced the equipment and have new cleaning protocols in place to keep you safe. As soon as we know, we will let you know right here! Thank you for your patience.

A quick note: We are located in Lambton county, which is still in a "holding pattern" in Stage 1 for re-opening. We are not included in Stage 2 re-opening as of yet. Let's see what next week has to bring!

The gym may not be open but we have been very busy preparing for when we are allowed to do so! When we all return, you will see some changes. Some equipment has been moved to allow for "social distancing" between machines. There will be many guidelines in place to ensure proper cleaning procedures and that safety measures are met. More of that will be covered closer to opening time. Until the time comes when we get the go ahead from the Premier, stay safe and healthy!

Since we still are unable to do this in person.....wishing all Moms out there a very Happy Mother's Day!! Stay safe.
