Syncrude Sport & Wellness Centre - Fort McMurray, Alberta

Best gym experience in town in my opinion, I tried the major ones and settled here for a month. Still a couple of collage kids wearing heavy cologne, but just talk to staff or kindly inform them of the scent sentive rules posted (by the fountain).
Decent spacing and the track for runners isn't to busy, they seem to change direction weekly rather than daily? Not sure. Very affordable and efficient place to workout with good equipment that is 95% in good repair.
Staff is always on hand to ensure issues can be raised.

Bring good headphones the volleyball and basket ball games can get loud but they are fun tow watch from the top while running or working out.

I’ve been a long time member of this facility and have enjoyed most of my time there. However, there are some things that are pushing me and others away from there. For one, the change rooms and restrooms smell terrible. I personally believe people are urinating on the floors. It smells rotten, I can barely get changed some days without feeling nauseous or physically ill. Secondly, there are a lot of “new” people at this gym and I believe ZERO of them wear any sort of hygiene products. With all the fans blowing, the smells takes over the entire place. There needs to be some reinforcement or management of hygiene practices because it is truly gross. As for the restrooms and change rooms, they need some air fresheners or better deep cleaning as it is almost a health concern.

I really do hope to continue using this facility but if things don’t change I will have to take my business elsewhere.

The equipment is fine, there isn’t a lot of variety but it could be worse. The staff are friendly and the rates are perfectly reasonable. The reason it’s getting a one star review is because of the unbearable heat! It’s 27 degrees Celsius inside the gym. I get that it’s +33 outside but AC does exist and they are clearly not running it. Having fans blow hot air on me isn’t going to help. Keeping a gym at +27 is beyond unacceptable.

Great staff, clean premises and quality equipment. Only thing missing is a sauna and pool but for gym and sports it's great.

The gym equipment is in great condition, monthly rates are reasonable & the staff at this facility are genuinely super friendly.
The smell of this gym, however, will rot your insides.
We tried dealing with it for a while but it honestly became unbearably nauseating.
Personal hygiene should be enforced properly and a priority for all the gym members at the Syncrude Sport & Wellness Centre.
We have taken our business elsewhere.

Gym was awesome. We were there for the prestige MMA fights, very good experience, well organized!

Gym is great most of the time, however, very slow to fix broken equipment. With a womens only workout room during certain times, will make it hard to complete a workout if one of the cables is still broken, since it’s already been broken 2 months.

I LOVE this gym! It has everything you could ever need and then some.
