If you are serious about training and strength this is the gym to be. Best top quality equipment. Owner is a super cool person. I don't understand why people talking so much lies without ever visiting this place.

One of the best know gyms in Ottawa (and Ontario) for strength training and powerlifting. Great facility with highly knowledgeable trainers and excellent equipment. Highly recommended. I send many patients here to get proper instruction, rehab from injuries and improve performance in their sport.

Hands down the best gym facility I have ever been to! So happy I found this place. Extremely well run, very clean, & fully equipped. Zero drama, everyone stays in their own lane, and everyone is respectful & courteous with eachother and with all of the equipment. Highly recommend!!!

If getting strong and in the best shape of your life is your goal. This is a great place to be. Their equipment is high level. The gym energy is high as well and it's open 24/7.

Great Gym, Clean, friendly environment and amazing equipment. One of the best gyms - if not the best gym in Ottawa, My one critique is that they should have a flat press machine. Love it here

In the midst of a pandemic, the owner refuses to close, and when I called with concern, I simply asked "during this state of emergency, will you remain open?" to which the owner aggressively replied, "whats your name, are you a member?" no, I am not a member, but I am someone who is basically required to make frequent contact with a member who refuses to stop going to the gym. I explained this to him and he angrily answers with "I'm allowed to stay open as long as I have 50 people or less in at a time" I have been in this gym once and kinda got the stereotypical gym vibe that people there think they're above you and even when facing a crisis, they prove they're just that.

Good gym but temperamental and controlling owner. Be careful

Hands down the best gym in Ottawa. The owner and staff are friendly and approachable and the facility is top notch with a large variety of machines/equipment to suit the needs of powerlifting, bodybuilding or just getting fit in general. The atmosphere in the gym is great as well, with friendly people, a good sound system and music choice as well. 613 blows any of the copy and paste commercial gyms out of the water.

Best gym I’ve used. The quality of the equipment, high energy atmosphere and tight knit community give you a place to belong and align with people who want to better themselves everyday and aren’t there to joke around. This gym is for those who have a will to become greater. Would buy into it not just as member but as a investor one day. That’s how much I love it.

Terrible owner. The owner should not be a personal trainer let alone running a gym. It’s appalling.

Owner is a complete fraudster and a scammer. Stay away.

If you want to be the best, you need to train with the best! Great gym, amazing owner and top notch equipment. Everything you could hope for to get a good workout, tons of rack and platforms. Been going for over 2 years now and no plans on leaving anytime soon

Owner sold me a 100 lb Olympic Plate for almost half a grand during a pandemic. You would think a licensed business owner would have more ethical practices, but it seems scamming people on Facebook Marketplace is a side business he uses to fund his gym with fancy Rogue equipment. I will delete this review if you send me the other plate which you should have given me at the time of purchase.

Easily one of the best equipped gyms in the country for BOTH bodybuilding and powerlifting. Ottawa has some of the best bodybuilders AND powerlifters in the world; it's not uncommon to bump into them at 613Lift. Change rooms and washrooms are very nice and clean -- not what you would expect from a 'serious lifters' gym. Even though it seems like a hardcore gym all of the members are pleasant and encouraging to each other; doesn't matter if you're world class or just learning. I'll see you there.

I've been a member here 6 months now. I drive 45 min just to come here. I've trained all over the city through my life and I've never had a better experience at any club. This is a family. We all know and respect each other. The owner and manager have only the best intentions and are always helping, guiding and teaching all members. Congratulations on grooming a culture of respect and love! 613 for life!

Fantastic gym, decided to make the switch from GoodLife to 613 Lift and it’s been a life changer. Better workout environment, everybody is there to train hard unlike the other gyms I’ve been too! The people in the gym are so friendly and are respectful! They have amazing equipment and a wide array of free weights that will help you with your goals whatever they might be! I wish I made the switch earlier. I 100%. Recommend this gym!

Horrible experience at this gym

Gym owner is a thief!

Very clean and well organized gym. Amazing equipment, knowledgeable & friendly staff, and the atmosphere can't be matched. The best gym in Ottawa hands down!

I was scammed by the owner on kijiji.

Amazing! Everyone is supportive of everyone, especially since I'm a starting out for working out. No one gave me looks on how small I was, everyone was nice. Everyone waited they're turn. Highly recommend

Throughout my hockey career, I've been to some of the nicest gyms all over North America. So this review doesn't come lightly. 613 Lift is my favourite gym I've been to in my life. The environment at 613 Lift is unmatched. 613 Lift is perfect for people who: - Want to use top-tier equipment - A judgement free zone. - Seriously, you can yell, take your shirt off, flex, nobody cares. Everyone is focused on their own goals. - Like high-energy gyms - Being surrounded by some of the most dedicated people to health & wellness in Ottawa. - Like having 24/7 access to a top-tier facility. My favourite two things about the gym is: 1. You are allowed to record content. As a content creator knowing I can whip my phone out to record without anyone telling me not to or judging me is nice. 2. Motivating atmosphere. Seeing countless people who have my dream physique every time I go to the gym truly pushes me to reach the next level. Nicholas, the owner, has created a beautiful thing. 613Lift is the best gym in Ottawa hands down.

Great gym. Very supportive environment, tons of new equipment, lots of squat racks. As an athlete, this place is insane for training. As a photographer, it's definitely one of the top I've ever been to for creating content. Highly recommended.

Great gym, has all of the equipment that you need for either powerlifting or bodybuilding. Owner is very accommodating and helpful, and one time entry fee is cheap at $20. Would definately consider a membership if I lived in Ottawa. Just watch out not to crack a joke about powerlifters if you are the sensitive type...hint: owner is a powerlifter and he does not appreciate that kind of humour, lol

Great gym , welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff. Serious workout environment. Everyone very respectful and the gym was extremely clean and tidy. All weights were put back .

I knew I had found my second home very shortly after coming here. The owner, Nick, is awesome and takes care of his clients well, and does his best to keep his gym in very very good condition. I had just done quite a bit of travelling lately, so had to put up with other gyms, either that were much less maintained, or that were a complete mess. Travelling made me appreciate this facility more. It's hard to find such a great well-equipped gym! Thanks!

This gym isn't like some Anytime fitness or fit for less. Its an actual community, filled with sick people. The equipment is top tier, the layout is nice, you can actually FILM in the gym, you can work out shirtless if you really wanted to, you can yell, scream, get your buddies to give you some slap city and slam some weights. People there hype you up and if you're looking for the best gym in Ottawa, you must sign up. This place is badass

I've been coming to this gym since Feb 2021. I've been to almost every major chain and small gym in Ottawa and 613lift has by far the highest quality and advanced equipment anywhere. The owner, Nick, can be seen cleaning the place at any given day. It's cleanliness is by far top notch compared to any Movati or Goodlife. Bathrooms / changeroom are always clean and stocked. Open more of these in Ottawa to show the rest of the city what a real fitness / gym environment looks like. 💪👍💪👏

Nothing but amazing experiences here ! Been a member for going on 2.5 years and it is by far the best gym in Ottawa. The family like atmosphere, the top of the line equipment and people all willing to help each other get better cant be found anywhere else ! Been to multiple gyms in my life and will never switch it up. Also the gym owner treats each member like a friend of his own and is somebody I have gained a lot of respect for over the years!

I’ve been going to 613 lift since the first year Nic has opened his gym. I’ve been to multiple gyms for years and never have I enjoyed a better workout anywhere else. You can wear what you want, you can be as loud as you want, good music, good vibes and good people. Everyone around is so friendly and are willing to help each other out when needed. I’ve canceled movati and goodlife. I’m from Orleans and I drive a long distance just to go to this gym! Its worth it :) Also wanted to add in to everyone below spreading lies that this gym has contracted covid cases like crazy. I’ve been going to 613 lift since the beginning of covid, not once have I seen anyone sick come at the gym nor have I caught anything or any other members. Not once have I caught covid and i’ve never worn my mask anywhere else. The owner also puts the effort in keeping every equipment sanitary and everything is always clean as new. People just love to spread lies when they disagree with someone’s business decisions. Nic has saved my mental health during these difficult times by remaining open and respecting other people’s decision or wearing a mask or not and respecting that not everyone is able to wear one. That was another reason I canceled my membership with other gyms.

Owner and person at reception are both super chill and nice. They are very welcoming and gave me a thorough tour. Gym itself is insanely clean, organized and has everything you need go ham during a workout. All weights are placed back in their spots unlike other gyms where people act like 2 year olds. Quality equipment and pumped up atmostphere. Everyone is so fit and hard working here. Haven't been to the gym in 3 years so I am really out of shape so I am glad to have found this place. If you are serious about fitness, this has to be the place.

Undoubtedly Ottawa's best gym for anyone looking to improve their health. Equipment is top of the line, the place is always 10/10 clean and 24/7 access. Ownership has put in immense amount of thought into every aspect of the gym and it shows.

Serious gym but great staff who are welcoming and friendly. Great place to workout. 1 stars are from C19 mental cases who ended up being proven wrong… will they remove their reviews? Of course not. Ignore them. This is a great place

Absolutely amazing gym! I am a new member at 613Lift. The process to sign up was extremely simple and so was booking the appt online. When I got there I was greeted by the owner and he made me feel very welcome. He gave me a tour of the gym and took his time to explain the rules and all the equipment. The members at this gym are very friendly and welcoming, I felt right at home within the first few mins of walking in. The gym is extremely clean with sanitizers placed all over the gym. Fantastic job Nicholas, thank you!

I’m from Montreal and I was there for a day. Super well equipped gym, I loved the vibe, cool and strong members. Unlike what some poorly written reviews may say, the owner is super friendly and approachable 👏🏽 🔥

Great powerlifting gym!

Excellent powerlifting gym. 8 racks, 4 comp benches, nice deadlift platforms, wide variety of specialty bars, and good atmosphere.

Very impressive gym!! It’s beautifully equipped and organized. They even have a proper belt squat machine. Was in town visiting and Nick (owner) kindly let me do a drop-in session. Would 101% train here again when in town.

Great gym especially to get motivated to train legs ! Soon, the gym will get bigger !

There's no doubt in my mind that this is the best gym I've ever been to. Top notch equipment and top notch environment.

Hardcore gym in Ottawa. Everybody is serious about making progress so its a great environment to be in and the music is very good as well. Nick, the owner is awesome and always in a good mood. I hope to return soon.

Not very welcoming. The lady on my intake was in general rude to me. I asked to get a coach and was told to get one myself. So I dm'd one of the coaches and was quickly ghosted. And what's with the no trespass, it's a gym everyone should be welcome. Edit. Thanks for the reply. I understand your system does not have my name in it. That is because Brad Clooney is not my real name. (Brad Pitt + George Clooney = Brad Clooney) Thank you for addressing the trespass sign with me. My point on that matter is, I have never seen another gym have a no trespass sign while most other gyms are also members only. If it's down now great, I'm sure it is more inviting without the sign up. What about the rude lady that did my sign in? Or the coach that wouldn't help me? Will you address those complaints aswell?

Best gym and equipment. Nick and Mel are amazing!! Highly recommend checking out this gym if your tired of the typical facilities.

This is by far the best gym I've ever been to. For anyone who's into bodybuilding or powerlifting , this is heaven . Very friendly atmosphere, and I wish I lived in the area so that I could use it more often. Sadly I live 3 hours away, but am seriously debating on driving to the area just to use this gym again. Big thanks to the owner Nick for letting me use the gym before I even sent the payment , he seems like a good dude. Ton of modern hammer strength and even Arsenal brand equipment that I've always wanted to try, you can tell this place was built by a true lifter rather than walking into a cookie cutter gym like goodlife or planet fitness. 10/10 rating on this place

Amazing gym. People are great, atmosphere is amazing . Owner is great and very friendly and helpful. Great place all around

What a great gym! Atmosphere, people, and more importantly, the equipment is unreal!! I'll definitely be back every time I'm in town!!!

Great equipment and extremely clean! Nick and Melisa are amazing and extremely helpful. 10/10 recommend this gym

Great facility with a vast array of equipment to continually challenge you in your training program. The gym owner, Nick, has a wealth of knowledge and experience, and is a pleasure to interact with. All this combined with flexible membership options and 24 hour access makes 613 Lift one of the best strength training facilities in the region. There are members of all experience levels, and the community within the gym itself is incredibly positive and friendly. If you've thought about trying out a session here, I highly recommend making the time to do so. It's absolutely worth it.

You can expect from this nothing but great ambiance, great staff, amazing equipment, and a very clean and organized establishment. I came from Quebec city to try this one out and was not disappointed at all. If you are big into fitness, it is a must try.

By far the best gym i’ve joined in the past 20yrs in the Ottawa/Gatineau region.

Great atmosphere, great staff and priced reasonably! 100% best gym in Ottawa

Best gym in the city hands down. It's motivating and has every machine and weight possible to achieve your goals.

It's the best.

Looking forward to getting a membership as soon as possible

Very organized. Top quality equipment. Will impress any gym enthusiast

Excellent space. Clean & you couldn't ask for better equipment!

A gym full of power racks and deadlift platforms. You can grunt and drop weights. Plus good music. Better than any commercial gym. Also very good prices.

Best equipped gym in Ottawa

Best gym in town

The best place to powerlif in Ottawa!

Visited from out of town, has everything I need for a work out: plenty of racks and plates in kilos (being from the other side of the Atlantic). Specialty bars and auxiliary equipment for days, plus good tunes! Make an appointment, I didn’t know and was lucky the owner was there when I showed up. I know these key card places are common here, just not so much where I live. I’ll be back next time I visit!

Without a doubt the best gym around. Great atmosphere to train in. Can't be beat.

Gotta be the best gym in the city.

Best facility in town. A++ equipment. Great vibe.

Visited 613 Lift while in Ottawa for business and was not disappointed. This facility has everything you need for bodybuilding, powerlifting, or Olympic lifting. The staff are really friendly and so are the patrons. Gym was clean and the vibe (and lighting) were perfect. Highly recommend if you are looking for a place to train!

Easy sign up process, welcoming owners. Amazing equipment easily the best gym in the city

I was visiting Ottawa for a wedding this past weekend and had the opportunity to stop by 613 Lift for a workout. The owner, Nicholas, was awesome and took the time to show me around the gym and get me set up for my workout. This place is amazing, easily the best gym I have ever been to! Looking forward to visiting again! Ottawa, you are lucky to have this gym in your city!

Amazing equipment, amazing environment, and amazing people. Top of the line equipment; lots of weights, specialized machines, and power racks. Awesome environment; bodybuilding friendly, non-discriminatory, and not intimidating. Everyone at 613Lift is extremally nice and encouraging. As a relatively new lifter, I have been given very helpful tips from others in a non-judgmental way. Also, the owner and staff are incredibly welcoming and actually take the time to meet you and make you feel a part of the community. Highly recommend this gym to anyone, whether you are a beginner or a experience lifter.

Now wonder cbum trains here. Amazing atmosphere, very nice equipment , staff is nice , this is not your average gym. Its levels ahead of any gyms u are used to

Best gym in town , I have lived all around Canada. This is the best gym I ever been
