The Tour

To help support our local economy, our facility was designed and built by local trades and contractors. There are also many features incorporated in the design of the building that are more environmentally friendly; some of these include energy efficient lighting, passive solar heating, and the heat recovery and rapid air exchange system for cleaner, fresher air.

Main Reception

Our reception desk is the main customer service centre of the facility. Here you can collect information on programs, special events and services offered at Heritage Fitness.  There is a lounge area and a healthy snack bar with a variety of beverages.

Change Rooms

The change rooms are large, clean, and comfortable and include private shower facilities. Ventilated lockers are available for day-use, and we provide an ironing board and hair dryers.

Fitness Promenade

Although this is the largest portion of the facility, it is broken up into distinctive areas so that the equipment you want is easy to find.  There is also a giant movie screen you can enjoy between exercises!

There are over 50 pieces of cardiovascular equipment including treadmills, steppers, elliptical trainers, seated recumbent bikes, rowers, spin bikes, and a Jacob’s Ladder. We have also recently added a second type of both the treadmills and elliptical trainers to accommodate more members. Most of the machines have a built-in heart rate monitor, fans, and a view of the televisions allowing you to catch-up on current events, sports, movies, and your favourite talk shows. The strength training area is sectioned and colour-coded according to the body-part that you want to exercise. The selectorized and plate-loaded machines are well maintained, easy to use, and accommodate both novice and long-time fitness enthusiasts.

In our most recent expansion, we have added another section to the gym that offers one of the best equipped free-weight facilities in the area. The Ironworks is meant to accommodate both heavy and light lifters in a respectful setting. Emphasis is placed on safety and correct form, and proper etiquette is enforced. It is equipped with safety racks, numerous benches, multiple Smith Machines and Olympic lifting platforms with bumper plates, and many dumbbells, barbells & plates, rubberized for safety and cleanliness. To reduce waiting, we have extra sets of the most commonly used dumbbells. When you finish your workout you can cool down in the stretching area which has an assistant stretch station, stretching mats, and padded carpet for extra comfort. It also allows members to use this space for extra floor work during their training.

Core Fit

Our CoreFit Functional Training Centre provides over 2000sq feet of open indoor and outdoor space. Outside we have a training sand-pit & volleyball court, a 100m sprint track, and an area for hill training. It is fully stocked with many fitness “toys” including medicine balls, BOSUs, climbing ropes, running parachutes, and punching bags. It is home to our Group Fitness Classes and many different specialty training programs.

Spin Studio

We now offer a spin studio in the loft of our free-weight section, equipped with 17 spin bikes. Here you can find Group Spin Classes and speciality spin programs throughout the week. It is also available to use at your leisure for an individual spin session. The studio has two televisions and a surround system to optimize your work-out.
