About Crunch Fitness - Hamilton East Mountain
Crunch Fitness - Hamilton East Mountain is a popular gym with a large, new, and clean facility. It boasts a wide variety of equipment, including the latest cardio machines and plenty of dumbbell racks and machines. The gym also offers group workout classes. Amenities include clean lockers and showers. While the gym is well-equipped, some suggest adding more paper towels and sanitizer stations for equipment cleaning. The equipment generally works well, though some machines can break down and take a long time to fix. The gym can get busy, especially in the evenings, and there is a musty smell that affects air quality. Staff are friendly and helpful, always greeting members with a smile and assisting when needed. Members appreciate the welcoming and safe environment, which makes working out more enjoyable. However, there is some inconvenience with using the massage beds, as members need to ask staff each time, which can be annoying. Many wish the gym was open 24 hours like other branches for more convenience.

I come here in the evenings and do very specific workouts, I play para-hockey and this is the only location I have found that has the supplies I need to work on the exercises in my booklet.
The staff here have been fantastic to me, including the personal trainers who have consistently given me motivation to push harder and have engaged with me about my sports outside of the gym. They have occasionally provided tips on better ways to do my workouts for more effective results.
Only reason I didn't give a five is because...read full review
