I went into The Strength Edge from a Reddit recommendation, but what stuck out was that everyone had a great attitude. In the past I had bad experiences at Goodlife and was unhappy with the gyms provided by The City of Calgary. I also wanted 24/7 access.The idea of a staffless gym is odd but you get used to it quick. When applying you will be shown around, no worries there.In addition to the membership, I started personal training there provided by Calgary Barbell. I am so glad I did. I had a professional show me proper form proper breathing and a routine that fits my goals.If you’re used to the shiny look of franchise gyms, this will be a big change as it was for me, but I’ll never go back.

Has to be one of the best strongman gyms in all of Alberta, probably Western Canada. Has all the strongman equipment you could dream of. Very close to what heaven must be like. More...

Good equipment, good atmosphere.The trainer that I met and am planning to schedule sessions for working on my lifting form was very knowledgeable and realized a flaw in my deadlift that I was aware of and trying to fix. No other trainer has done that. They've all just taught me bad form or see me lifting with bad form and say it's fine. None of them even taught me how to brace when lifting heavy. Basically most personal trainers (PT) are unqualified for teaching proper powerlifting form.I've met 4 in the past two years and have noticed this trend of PTs teaching misinformation and being unqualified for teaching lifting. Get a good coach or trainer from Calgary Barbell/Strength Edge instead. More...

Lots of women there, makes me feel included and safe, music selection is I think by guests so it varies. Lots of equipment, very nice place

Nice large garage gym. Friendly community. Open 24/7. Make sure to contact the owner for access the first time as its not a staffed gym.

This place is awesome if your focus is getting strong and being around people with similar goals. The are no change rooms or saunas or other amenities. There is just equipment and strong friendly people. More...

Sandra is my powerlifting coach, and is now my mentor as well. She has transformed me both mentally and physically in less than 3 months. I met her after gaining a significant amount of weight and was very unhappy with my life and my physique. Sandra helped me switch my focus from the scale and instead on my strength and my measurements. She makes me laugh, she makes me feel better on my bad days, she eases my anxiety when I feel overwhelmed and weak and I always leave my workout feeling more positive than when I came in. Because of Sandra, I now feel part of the Strength Edge Community and I feel like Powerlifting is my sport. More...

This gym is amazing. Andrew is a great owner and super inviting to new people. It has everything you need even though it's a powerlifting/strongman gym. I've met some really great people there, it's my top gym to train at. More...

Best strength training atmosphere I’ve seen in Calgary. Excellent power lifting and strongman / strongwoman training facility. Dedicated plates, bars and platform also there for Olympic style weightlifters. Personal training services available c/o Calgary Barbell are top notch.On-site massage therapy available as well. Basic amenities and no-frills change rooms serve their purpose. More...
