Default Gyms Near Mackenzie Towne?

Was hoping I could get some local insight regarding gyms.

I'm moving back to Calgary from Vancouver in a couple weeks, and I'd like to join a gym near my new place in Mackenzie Towne.

I haven't lived in Calgary since 2001, and I used to go to the Golds Gym on Macleod and Canyon Meadows. I think that's a little far, and was wondering if they built any new gyms in the SE (preferably the Mackenzie area) since?

There's a Shapes or Curves or something in the Copperfield Mall, but IIRC it's one of those "women only" types of places.

There is a gym by the Deerfoot Inn and Casino - FitZone, I think it is called... and the Volleydome might have a gym as well. That is relatively close.

Thanks.

I checked out their website - pretty lame. No shots of the inside at all.

Might try the Y or go back to Golds.

Again - appreciate the help!

The inside of the Shawnessy Y isn’t bad but for the amount of people that go there it isn’t very accommodating it closes at 10 every night expect for Sundays which is 8 and if you are going to go make sure its later or earlier never go between 330-700 its really bad, mostly cause there is a high school attached and a lot of kids go straight to the gym afterwards

Just to let you know, the Gold's Gym at Canyon Meadows closed and eventually Good Life Fitness (another gym) moved in. I just wanted to let you know in the event it was the cache of the Gold's Gym name that was drawing you to make the longer trek.
