“Highly recommend the Genuine Athletics Team! Everyone I have spoken with is very knowledgeable with nutrition and injuries and I personally appreciate how they preach the positive impact exercise has on mental health. I have never looked at myself with pride until I had met Jason and learned to notice all the little changes my body was making by building muscle and losing body fat. He made me feel very comfortable, and come out of my shell and not hide behind my clothes. He kept me motivated and plated seeds in my head for the rest of my life that has only a healthy impact on me and my entire family.”

“Getting back into the gym after a severe lower back injury was intimidating and difficult which lead to weight gain and further issues. After being referred to Jason, he analyzed my posture, diet and habits, combined with his wealth of knowledge with the understanding of human anatomy and movement. He got me back on track and helped strengthen my body while eliminating virtually all of my back issues. He modified my diet with a sustainable approach and I am in the best shape of my life. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend Jason and his team!”

“This is seriously the nicest gym I’ve ever worked out at. The equipment is all Rogue and there’s so many cool machines I’ve never gotten the opportunity to use at another gym. The all black aesthetic makes the gym absolutely gorgeous too, they did a phenomenal job setting it all up. Customer service is a 10/10 they treat you like family when you go in, Jason and the team are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Definitely would recommend Genuine Athletics to everyone I know! Simply put, we are obsessed with Genuine Athletics.”

“I’ve been training with Genuine Athletics since February of 2020. I had my son May 2019. I had extreme nerve damage in both my legs from birthing my son. Also suffered from postpartum depression for 7 months after birth. My trainer built me back up stronger than ever! I can do lunges, squats, heavy hip thrusts and most of all carry my son without struggling. I went from sleeping on the couch for months because I couldn’t go up and down my stairs or on and off my bed to crushing personal set goals. After shredding off the baby weight I look better than ever! Genuine Athletics trainers are sweet, knowledgeable and professional. I can honestly say these people are my family now. I am thankful for Genuine Athletics!”

All the coaches here are so knowledgable. They teach you technique in the first 30 mins of the group classes which I have never experienced before. You will actually learn things that will make you feel comfortable working out by yourself. The environment of the gym is really friendly. Shout out to Jason Bell that has worked so hard to create his vision into reality. Very inspiring. Come check it out! Plus all the equipment is top notch!

I would describe Genuine Athletics as Professional, Bespoke and truly Genuine. I have been going to this gym for their group classes for almost 6 months now. I love the clean environment, beautifully designed equipment and the community of this place. The staff is educated, detail oriented, inspiring and push you to become better each workout. The workouts are fun and never boring, I highly reccomend you try a class!

I love this gym, everyone here is friendly, experienced and full of knowledge. The gym is a great size, clean and had tons of equipment! I love the range of group classes (weight training, yoga and boxing)! Callea is an awesome trainer and boxer. She always pushes me to be better every class and I always come out feeling awesome after every workout!

I’ve been training with Satty for a month now, and initially, I was intimidated to reach out because I thought Genuine Athletics was only for advanced people. But I could not be more wrong as I have now realized there is a diverse community of people from all experience levels working towards becoming their best self. Satveer is exactly what i have been looking for in a trainer and I could not be happier. He really takes the time to make sure that his programming is client centered. He listens to your goals, identifies your needs, and works with you at your own pace. Given his no-nonsense approach and experience, he can respond to any of your questions with sound reasoning. This guy knows what he is talking about! Highly recommend him! Just want to say thank you to the Genuine Athletics Team and Jason who are always so welcoming, and have created such a friendly and motivating environment to train in!

Genuine Athletics & Rehabilitation provides a good environment and equipment. The owner Jason is kind and knowledgeable, and all trainers and therapists are very professional and supportive.

All of the trainers here are very knowledgeable and love what they do. Combined with all the high quality equipment that they have (can cater to powerlifting, strongman, bodybuilding and strength & conditioning as well as boxing/kickboxing) this is an excellent place to train, learn and grow. Jason, the gym owner, is one of the strongest people in Canada (a professional strongman) also has achievements in bodybuilding and field sports which i find super inspiring. I also appreciate how they have integrated the physiotherapy clinic as it gave me the opportunity to set up my mother on a path to living a healthier life by starting with physiotherapy before seeing a personal trainer. Whether you are looking for a personal trainer, group classes or other you can’t do much better than this gym.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Cynthia and Genuine Athletics. She’s an exceptional coach and the environment & culture at Genuine Athletics is as welcoming and inviting as one could hope for when starting their fitness journey. From day one, Cynthia has been motivating and professional. Her tailored workouts and guidance have helped me achieve my fitness goals faster than I ever thought possible. I started at the end of April 2023 and now going into September 2023 I’m down 30lbs, eating more than I was and feeling stronger than I’ve ever felt. Cynthia not only excels in the gym but also provides valuable advice on nutrition and overall well-being. I can feel that she truly cares about her clients’ success. If you’re looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable personal trainer I highly recommend Cynthia!
