Great place for strength training. Lots of squat racks and specialized lifting machines. Trainers are also pretty great, I really enjoy training with Kat so far.

Incredible gym! Supportive of their values and mission. At first I was intimidated with all the powerlifters being a beginner myself. As one of their signs states you grow out of your comfort zone - indeed I am. Absolutely love the security of their 24/7 access as well. The staff and owners are very responsive and take great care in maintaining the equipment along with the atmosphere. If you ever need a personal trainer, they have a list of incredible individuals whom will train you on-site. Thanks Jeremy, Kat and all for doing all you do to maintain a supportive environment!

I love this gym and how it is operated. The staff are really accommodating in terms of availability hours, showing you how to use the equipment and regularly upgrading and getting new stuff. Everything seems well taken care of. When I moved away and had to cancel my membership I was surprised that there is no fee to cancel, it’s just a matter of sending the owner an email. there was zero hassle or contractual obligation like there is with other gyms I’ve went to which was such a relief but also made me wish I could stay at this gym forever

Perfect gym, best equipment, helpful environment. But confused why there's no pizzas, tootsie rolls or 50 treadmills? What's up with that?

Fortis West is hands down, the best strength gym in Canada. They have the best equipment, environment and people. I've trained at a variety of facilities in Canada, the US and Europe and I always feel my best at Fortis West. The owners, Krystal and Jeremy are hugely knowledgeable and Jeremy never bats an eye at answering my questions and giving his thoughts to my training. I feel so lucky to have such an amazing facility close by. If you can train here, do it. You'll never look at the gym the same way.

I couldn’t be more honest when I say that Fortis Fitness West is the best gym that I’ve ever been to. After the tour I was given I signed up immediately and was so eager to get in and workout. I’ve been a member for about a month now. The staff are amazing, super kind, and always willing to help and answer any questions. The amount of equipment they offer is amazing. Anyone who is a beginner or even an advanced lifter will love this gym!

The best gym I've ever trained in. There is a selection of equipment unlike any I've seen and all of it is superb quality. There aren't a ton of isolation machines taking up the whole place. In their place is all the good stuff! No waiting for racks here. Ideal for anyone just starting out and ideal for someone who's trained for years. Worth going out of your way for.

Awesome gym. Awesome owner. Awesome patrons.

Been going for a couple years now and honestly it’s been going downhill lately. Management seems like they don’t care as much anymore. They are nice people but less care has gone into maintaining the gym lately. Lots of equipment is beat up, and the A/C has broken down a lot lately and it’s very humid inside . Not to mention they took in a lot of members while they stayed open during the lockdowns so it gets pretty crowded at times. Still a decent gym if you’re super into powerlifting, but the average goer can find a better option for a cheaper price in my opinion.

nice

This gym is amazing. They have a wide variety of equipment and accessories for all your needs. The energy in the gym motivates you to push and work hard. I had the pleasure of being trained by John. His knowledge and patience helped me get the start I needed for my fitness journey.

This gym is definitely efficient in increasing strength

Solid gym overall, have dropped in here about a dozen or two times to train with some friends and I can say it’s one of the best in the area for pure strength training - haven’t been to the main location but from what I’ve been told by members here that have dual memberships or drop in at the Toronto location, both are great.

I have had the pleasure of working with John Fortich over the past 6 months. John is a professional and knowledgeable trainer who is passionate about helping his clients achieve their goals. Anyone who works with him can tell that he genuinely cares about his clients and their well being. He goes above and beyond to ensure that they are set up for success throughout their fitness journey. John has been training me for my first powerlifting meet coming up in June. He has done an excellent job at tailoring my program to best suit my goals, needs, and lifestyle. He takes into account many factors to ensure my programming and sessions are most effective for me. What I appreciate most about John's training mentality, is that he reinforces injury prevention, recovery and longevity. As I client and fellow trainer, I am grateful that he priorities this aspect of training. I highly recommend John as a trainer for anyone looking to reach their goals in the gym! In terms of the facility, Fortis West is a great gym with a variety of equipment. It's open 24/7 to members, and everyone there is respectful of the space. I look forward to more sessions with John and I am excited to continue my strength training journey here.

This is an absolutely amazing facility with a friendly community and a wide variety of equipment to fit your lifting needs. This is the best gym I've ever worked out in

Simply the best gym in Mississauga. No high pressure sales and a great selection of equipment. The owners rock. Come here to get strong!

Best gym I've been too, I recommend this place to everyone looking for a good gym.

Have a great group of friends that train there and are truly supported in their pursuit of strength. Supplied with great equipment and atmosphere to help local athletes reach new heights.

Great gym with a great owner! If your looking for a gym designed more as a strength and conditioning facility come here.

Amazing community, equipment, and the owners are always willing to help with any questions.

I’ve gone to hundreds of gyms in my life. It’s in my line of work. Theres no better place than fortis west. Lots of squat racks, clean and the vibes are great.

Great 24hr gym. Card access. Clean and well laid out workout area. Awesome collection of equipment to use that you won't find anywhere else.

Excellent powerlifting and weightlifting gym.

Excellent gym with top notch equipment and a good layout. I'm glad to have such a well equipped gym so close to home.

Nothing even compares in the area, everyone is there to get better. Owners are awesome and it always feels homey. You will never have to wait for a squat rack, ever. Knowledge is power, and now you know 😌

Awesome gym. Great equipment, solid community. Nothing to complain about

The gym itself is simple and wonderful. I started training there when I was pregnant. My trainer John Fortich was very kind. With his guidance and care, I was still able to lift safely throughout my pregnancy. He helped me maintain my strength so that I was able to jump back into my power lifting training after giving birth. He has done such an awesome job, that my family now comes to train with John. Whether you are a seasoned lifter or beginner, I found that many Fortis members are very supportive of each and are very encouraging. Even the owners are super friendly and helpful and always takes time to say hello to the members. Fortis has become my second home. 😊
