WELCOME TO LIFT
Tofino's Self-Care Space
If you are serious about training, we've got you covered.
Our space is more like a second-hand bookstore than a corporate gym. Some still refer to Lift as The Dungeon, and we'd rather have a functional gym than a pretty gym. We are dedicated to serving the diverse needs of Powerlifters, Olympic lifters, Bodybuilders, Cardio enthusiasts, and we even accept Crossfitters. Our mission is simple: provide an inclusive space for personal growth.
Remember, when picking a training facility....
it's not about the view.
Member Hours 5am-11pm
No Front-desk or Supervision
Must be 16 years of age
No group classes
No Drop-Ins
Do You Wanna Learn How To Lift?
Coach Myles Jeffers
Increasing human performance has been my life’s work, and passion, and 'The Gym' is where I feel I can have the most positive impact on other humans. I have extensive certifications in strength training, yoga, and nutrition but what makes me a uniquely effective coach is the powerful combination of my broad coaching experience (including professional surf & professional hockey), the wisdom I gained from strong mentors, and my extensive competitive history across multiple sports including Junior A Hockey, NCAA Div.1 Lacrosse, and Weightlifting.
If you are deadly serious about making fitness a part of your life, and would like some help along the way please reach out by selecting one of the following Coaching Packages or email info@lifttofino.ca

Additionally, you may contact Rachel Viruete (viruetefitness@Gmail.com) for Personal Training and she works on the main gym floor of Lift!
Free weights:
We have 2 squat racks and 1 smith-machine. We do not have a bench-press station. We have a space for olympic lifting and powerlifting with lots of bumper plate and iron plates. We have three olympic barbells, 1 female olympic barbell, and a solid-ass set of dumbbells ranging from 5-100lbs. As far as Kettlebells; 2 x 24kg, 1 x 20kg, 2 x 16kg, 1 x 12kg, and some stragglers. We also have a straight bar set which ranges from 10-110lbs in increments of 10lbs. We have a preacher curl-station, and an ez-curl bar. You will also find a 'landmine' attachment.
Machines & Cables:
We have a classic cable machine on which you can perform both crossovers and pushdowns. We have a lat-pull-down machine, seated cable row machine, hamstring curl machine, quad extension machine, seated shoulder press, and seated chest press.
Cardio & Conditioning:
For those of you into serious conditioning we have a Rogue Echo Bike and a Concept 2 Rower. We also have two elliptical machines, and three treadmills.
Space Considerations:
Besides having no windows, we have one other major flaw. Even though we are proud to be one of the only basements in the area, our roof height means we cannot accommodate a full crossfit workout if it involves rings, wall balls, or bar muscle-ups. It is also difficult to skip in our space. Please be warned, that f you are quite tall (over 6'2"), you may not be able to perform a barbell press or push press on our platform.
What Equipment Do You Have?
ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED ENTRY?
You must be over the age of 16 to enter Lift without parent supervision. Due to the unsupervised floor space of Lift, to uphold safety standards minors are not allowed on the premises.
Exceptions are made for clients of The Lifter's Studio.
Do You Offer Guest Passes or Drop-Ins? What is your shortest membership?
Out shortest membership option is 1 month. We do not offer daily, weekly, or any membership less than 1 month at this point.
