If you're like me who's been avoiding gyms as they seem intimidating then this is the place for you! ALF is a great friendly place with encouraging owners & coaches. Marty made me feel welcomed & comfortable from my very first day. Their small group training sessions are perfect with just 4 to 5 people where you still get the indivualised attention. They also maintain a safe environment in the current situation. I look forward to my exercise classes.... Thank you ALF.

Marty and all the coaches at ALF are top notch!
Workouts are challenging but safe and bring results - exactly what I needed to get back on track post Covid. Marty provides guidance on nutrition and shifting body composition and the gym is super clean.
I was psyched to lose 8lbs. of body fat in 4 weeks! Thanks ALF for helping me get leaner and stronger 💪❤

Active Life Fitness has been a great gym for me to work out in. Marty, the owner sets personal goals for me to achieve, makes sure I am exercising in the right way, have the right form and the staff makes you feel like you have personal attention. Wether in the gym during these times or on zoom the staff keeps me motivated and engaged to reach goals with every session. I am over 50 and was looking for years to find the right environment with the right owners and staff to feel comfortable working out and sticking with it. ALF is that place for me!

I joined recently and Marty and the training staff are excellent. They focus on how you perform the training routines, providing guidance and advice.
The facility offers all the required training equipment, and there is a strong focus on maintaining a safe environment in today’s concerns of a healthy and safety.
Well done!!!

So happy to have joined the ALF family. My husband and I have always felt safe working out there throughout the pandemic. They only allow 5 people at a time and one trainer and we work out within our own pods with all the equipment we need for that day. We all wear our masks,
and the fans are on to circulate the air.
Hand sanitizer and wipes are also in each pod to sanitize equipment after every use. We enjoy our time there as the trainers are adults like us, and best of all, no mirrors!

The owners and instructors are the most professional, caring, and inspiring group of people I've ever worked out with! They take the time to get to know you and then design a workout program that best fits your needs, wants, and limits. The gym is exceptionally clean at all times and COVID safe. We each get our own pods with all of the equipment to work out with. Disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizers are easily accessible all around the gym. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I've been going to this gym for almost 2 years. It is a welcoming community with experienced staff who focus on you. The goal is strength and mobility, and they are experts at adapting for whatever your fitness or health level is. The members are a family who support and uplift each other. The gym has been there for the members since the start of the pandemic, loaning equipment, providing live and recorded workouts, and checking up on us via phone, text and email. You don't get that at larger chain gyms. I highly recommend Active Life Fitness.

Hey, you know what? I can't usually stand to go to a gym. I'm tired, I'm lazy, it's not something I like to do. However, when I walk through the door at ActiveLiveFitness and am greeted by Marty and I start my individual designed program along with my morning buds, as they work on their stuff, I start to get that good old feeling back again. I am accomplishing something, working on my goals, the goals that I worked with Marty to define. The music is good, I am focused on getting done and by the time I leave - new me!
So stop worrying where to look for the right trainer

Fastest hour of my day!!!
I have never joined a gym in my life - and I expected to hate it. But, not only do Marty and Kim give you a personalized routine (updated on a routine basis) and make sure you know how to execute it correctly...they have taken the gym experience and made it a community...a family. I have only been using their gym for 2 months, but they have instilled a habit already where I truly look forward to working out - at my own pace and level. After only 2 months, I already feel stronger, less joint pain, and have lost some weight. Kim and Marty make it a whole life experience

I have been training with Kim and Marty for a number of years. Both have been very thorough in their approach to training, especially keeping in mind a woman's strengths and abilities in general and also tailoring workouts to fit personal needs. I have seen a difference in my upper body strength which has improved my performance in both tennis and golf. I have also reached my lightest weight in years since training on a regular basis.
I recommend both Kim and Marty at ALF for your strength and fitness workouts. Their new space on South Ave in Garwood is friendly and open--a pleasure to train
