I was an intern previously and I was amazed by how they care about everyone in the gym not only as athletes but as people who come from different paths. Now I am a beginner of weightlifting here and I am grateful that they would always provide support and take your ideas or questions accounted. I’m glad I have come across LPS.

I walked into the gym back in may with no experience at all in football 🏈. The coaches there really help me join a football club where I eventually displayed dominance in most aspects. I also got noticed by reporters whenever I was on the field.Coming from someone with no experience, the coaches there, especially coach Clance helped me develop the proper strength and conditioning in a very short amount of time, which helped me surpass most guys in terms of athletic ability. If lps gave me the ability to get noticed, then for sure anybody that’s been playing football for longer would reap way more benefits.

I’m an 18-year-old who joined the gym 2.5 months ago as a member of the Olympic weightlifting team. In this short time, I've made significant progress in both my training and mindset as an athlete. I've learned how to challenge myself and embrace discomfort as part of the growth process. None of this would have been possible without the incredible coaches and the supportive gym community, who are always there to guide and motivate the athelete. The environment here is truly unique—every athlete is focused on improving and striving to win.Thank you, LPS!

My son Ethan (13 years) started training with the LPS team about 9 months ago and have done both virtual training with coach Alan, and in person with coach Clance. The results we have seen both physically and mentally have been incredible. The training sessions are very intense and the motivation the coaches have given him is second to none. He is more committed to football, getting stronger and faster, and becoming an overall student / athlete than ever before. We thank LPS for all is progress and can’t wait to see the results in another 9 months!If you’re a parent serious about your child’s athletics and academics, I highly recommend the team at LPS.

Amazing environment built for winners. If you want to be a winner. It doesn’t matter if it’s in sports, health/fitness, or just life. This environment, the team, the atmosphere in general is the place to be. I’ve trained in many facilities with many high level coaches growing up through my athletic career all the way to the pros, and there has not been one place here in Canada or in the USA that I’ve been to that is even close to what this place offers. It’s beyond the training program. The results are there. You just have to stick it through all the phases. It’s hard to explain it’s a feeling. And once you step through those doors and ACTUALLY stick it through, you’ll see exactly what I mean. You want to be stronger, faster, mobile, injury resistant, lose weight, build your mental toughness, etc etc. this is the place. This place is for life. It prepares you for life in general. I recommend this facility, this staff, this atmosphere for anyone that wants to win in life, sports, business, ANYTHING. This is the place to be. Words don’t do it justice. Experiencing it will.

I brought my 14U baseball team to train at LPS to help them get stronger and faster. LPS not only delivered in making them stronger, faster, but they also made them more durable, and mentally stronger. Our kids really enjoyed the time and learned a lot that they can take away for years to come. We look forward to getting back into it when the season is over.

Great experience training at LPS. An open, hard-working environment that allowed me to push myself and maximize my gains. In one summer, I saw massive improvements in my strength and mobility, which transferred to my sport of hockey. Definitely recommend it to any hockey goalies looking to improve their off-ice strength.

i just wanted to take this time to leave a review about LPS. I'm going onto my third week at LPS with the EFA (Elite Football Academy) training and let me tell you it's been truly amazing. Every time I walk in it smells like hard work and dedication. The training team is great they really care for You as person and really have made an impact and make me want to show up each week. I just want to say thank you to the team for providing athletes these wonderful opportunities to get better

Hands down the best gym in toronto if you are serious about your training. The coaches here are phenomenal and really get to know you and your body to customize a strength and conditioning program that works.If you are looking for a gym with a culture that truly cares about YOU, look no further than LPS. As I invest in my health even more this year, the team at LPS was there every step of the way to support my goals!

My son started at LPS last December and although I was a bit hesitant about weighlifitng at first, I think this will actually make the most difference in his overall athletic ability, strength and confidence as he is go into his hitting year in hockey. The difference in his speed is significant and he is sure it is because of the training he has done. They have a great team at LPS. Highly recommended.Just an update!2 years later I have seen an unbelievable change in him not only in strength but overall athletic ability. He has joined their weightlifting team but still plays hockey. Not only will it make your kid stronger, it will give him or her great confidence which is one of those important and almost intangible qualities that can be challenging for us as parents to teach to our kids

My daughter is 15 and swims competitively. Despite being hesitant to join LPS at first, she really enjoyed going for six weeks this past summer. We saw results very quickly and she gained strength and knowledge on proper technique. The coaches were awesome and really helped my daughter enjoy the program. She said she would definitely go back next summer.

Joining LPS will no doubt be the best decision that I will ever make in my life. They shape you to be a better athlete, and a better person with coaches that care about you and what you accomplish. I’m heading into my season feeling the best and most confident that I have ever been! My only regret is not starting sooner.

I came to LPS for an internship during the spring of 2022 as I'm strongly interested in working as a strength coach. My experience working with the coaches was incredibly informative and taught me more than I ever thought was possible. The athletes who train at LPS are pushed to become the best version of themselves in order for them to excel at their sport. I loved being apart of such a motivating environment because it constantly pushed me to become better and better.If you're an aspiring strength and conditioning coach that wants to get your foot in the door within the industry, or if you're an athlete that wants to take their performance to another level, then you should definitely go check out LPS Athletic Centre.You won't regret it!Mustafa

LPS is the best gym in Toronto. Period.1. I wasted years training by myself and progression was very slow. The result I got training here in just few month > years of training by myself.2. Gym Culture. This is the place where everyone in the gym are super competitive and serious about improving their strength and conditioning.I would recommend this place if you are serious and passionate about sport.

I knew I was in for a challenge when I discovered LPS on Google. I figured if PK Subban trained there it definitely would be a winner. The staff are super dedicated to improving their personal athletic abilities, so naturally they help us with very detailed guidance. Tweeking for better form or performance is a constant. These guys are the guys to build your foundation with, especially if you want to prepare your children for competitive sport.I would bring my kids here if I had any! Look for us in the future! Love y'all 🤜🏽💙🤛🏽 Nothing but greatness for y'all! 👊🏼

I've been a member of the LPS Weightlifting Team for over a year now and I am so happy I joined. I train mostly remote, but I am inspired by the LPS community and I am hitting numbers I always thought I could but Coach Clance has helped make possible.

I originally came here for a taste of how pro athletes train and I didn't plan to stay long term. Now it has been 10 months and I don't ever wanna leave. I stayed for the amazing and knowledgable coaches, the pace pushing environment that forces me to improve, and the results that I couldn't have achieved without their help. I get pushed to my limits every day that I come. This place forces you to be the best that you can be if you are willing to put into the work. There is no other gym I'd rather be at other than here at LPS.

LPS Athletic Centre is hands down one of the best training facilities to be at as an athlete looking to get better and even as an intern who is looking to learn. I’ve been in both positions and can assure anyone that if they come here they will see results as that is what LPS athletic Centre lives by.

This is a well maintained, professionally managed facility that offers world class coaching for anyone trying to reach their full potential. Best strength and conditioning programming to enhance your performance at whatever sport you compete at, and develop grit. Great place for kids to learn and develop a proper foundation in strength training using olympic weightlifting with an emphasis on mobility, technique, strength, speed and coordination. Prepare to dominate!

LPS is a differentiator with my son Logan's aspirations to become a professional athlete.I have found his coaches to deliver the highest level of expertise including weighting, techniques, frequency, range of motion and injury prevention.LPS fosters a very serious and professional experience with youth. Master coaching is the norm at LPS, even at the youth level. Additionally, pro players often mentor and encourage him during sessions.Furthermore, the learning is continuous from one session to the next. Even at a young age there are specific techniques deployed to ensure confidence building, progressive learning, strength and ultimatly speed.LPS, and their TOP coaches, are an essential part of Logans professional career aspirations as a footballer.

There are a couple of things I like about LPS. First off the atmosphere is unreal. Training next to some of the top athletes in Ontario creates an addicting energy while training; like there's no way you're going to be lazy when there are Olympians, pro footballers, and top track stars snatching 300lbs next to you. You immediately rise to their level.Secondly, the gym culture. There's a standard of excellence that sets the tone. It's very clear the intention: you want to be the best you gotta train like the best. The staff is amazing. As high as the standard is, everyone is so kind and helpful and all anyone wants for you is to succeed and it's very clear in the way they coach and treat you.The biggest difference from other gyms is LPS’s scientific knowledge for developing athletes.So many other gyms do not know how to properly build their athletes without injuring them. I’ve found other gyms focus more on gimmicks, and they lack the principles behind true athletic development such as making athletes do single-legged exercises on a balance ball with a kettle ball which is huge for injury. The majority of gyms lack the foundation and understanding behind true athletic development.LPS is the gym I constantly compare others to. And none have lived up to my standard of LPS. I know if want to be a top athlete, LPS is the only choice.

I am a professional volleyball player and LPS has been my favourite off season in my 13 years of training for this sport. I spent my first summer at LPS these past few months, and I reached a new level of strength, flexibility and mental toughness I’ve never tapped into before stepping into this gym. The coaches are the most knowledgeable, supportive and caring group of people and really want you to succeed as an athlete. If you train here and put in the work required you WILL see some crazy results I can guarantee.

Top tier environment, even better people inside helping athletes of all ages reach their full potential. Only being at LPS for 2 months helped me regain plus enhance my own athleticism and more. Coming here is a joyful, fun, energized, focused, hungry, determined and passionate community of the best athletes. Working with LPS with make you grow into the athlete you've always envisioned and shape you into an even better person in life.

I was so happy to find LPS after having ACL reconstruction last year. I was recovering well but not seeing the results I needed. After reaching out their response was quick, professional, and optimistic. I started my program with LPS in February and did a full month and a half before the Covid lockdown. In that short span of time I saw more results in my leg strength than I had seen in the prior 2 months of my recovery where I had focused on solely regaining muscle. Beyond the physical improvements the team at LPS helped me regain my mental strength and confidence. Being injured as an athlete is very difficult but the community they have built at LPS is truly empowering and I cannot thank them enough for getting me through such a tough time.

This is the best Strength & Conditioning Facility in Toronto. If you want to optimize your athletic performance, make it to a pro level at sports, or simply improve physical quality of your life... - LPS is the place to go to. The coaches here are knowledgeable and highly experienced in their respective fields. The training is definitely hard, but it certainly makes one a better athlete. The atmosphere is intense because everyone strives to better themselves. Most importantly LPS is a community. There is a strong sense of support and encouragement among the people here. I would highly recommend working with LPS, because it will make you better.

Great facility, the coaches are professional, knowledgeable, with patience but loving toughness. In only two months my strength has increased a lot and the way I move on the field has improved a ton thanks to the Athlete Activation System (AAS) program and given me the confidence that I’ll be able to dominate in the next level. In addition, the energy at LPS is upbeat, inviting and positive. Of course, I think Coach Laylor is the best trainer out there but all of the coaches are amazing and will help you reach your goals.

LPS is amazing!. Professional, attentive and the gym environment is incredibly supportive and friendly. I'm a little north of middle aged, very stiff with poor flexibility.The range of motion I have now compared to when I began is unbelievable. I can't say enough about how much they're helping me. LPS isn't just for high performing athletes, they're great for the average person looking for a better quality of life.

Clance, Mark, and Jeremy are the definition of professionalism. Their knowledge, teaching, organization, and communication are elite and just as good or better as any other trainers I’ve worked with. I highly recommend training with LPS. I’ve gotten stronger, faster, and much more knowledgeable about strength and conditioning through working with them.

LPS is a place where anyone thinking of reaching the next level should be. I trained many different ways to get stronger and be more focused on reaching higher goals with performance and I have not found anything better than here. Coaches here are always helpful and caring of their athletes and trainees. Coaches and athletes here care about what I think matters the most, effort and hard work. This is no comparison to any other commercial gyms. They have the right environment and coaches who are very dedicated to developing athletes. Even if you’re someone just wanting to get in shape, if your focus is there this is the right place for you.

When I first heard about LPS I was skeptical – I’ve never done any weight training, gaining all my exercise by playing multiple sports: Golf, tennis, hockey, basketball and cross country skiing. But I’m 55 now, and I could tell my body was starting to break down. I had pain in my knees, and would wake up aching. So much so that descending a stair case could be difficult at times. I wondered to myself if this is just how it is when you get older. It turns out I was dead wrong! I’ve been going to LPS since February, and I’ve never felt better. Clance and his team provide the right level of motivation without making you feel pressured, and if you put in the time you get the results: No more aches and pains, stairs are a breeze. I’m stronger, have much better flexibility and it’s paying off in every sport I play. Longer off the tee, more agile on the tennis courts, better endurance in hockey. I would highly recommend LPS to anyone who is wants to keep the edge on your fellow competitors.

I love the environment, support and results! My muscles and joints feel so much stronger and healthier.

My experience at LPS has been the best experience I’ve had at any gym and sports training facility. I’ve never had quicker results and improvements in my life. One thing that really stands out to me is how attentive all coaches are to every detail. I don’t know how they manage to be attentive to such a large group of quality athletes but they do. With hard work, practice, and coach’s dedication, flaws in my lift get fixed quickly.
