Ok went to the Pre-Sale/Open House for Fortis Fitness west in Toronto. Holy Fack.
To start they have 6 squat racks, 7 olympic platforms, 3 deadlift platforms, 4 benches that you don't need a spotter for, getting a mono-lift, strongman equipment and countless other items.

No they don't but they have a plate loadable atlas stone to save space. A Yoke, plate loadable keg, a giant dumbbell and a few other things.

Also, anyone (preferably who lifts) is familiar with Movati? How was your experience? It looks pretty fancy. Nothing against cheap gyms but I like the idea of well maintained facility.

whats going on CC
this weather has been insane, -20 feeling like -40 in toronto and now in the positives. I don't really like the cold but I can tolerate consistency. Can mother nature make up her mind already?
I've been playing soccer indoors and I spent the first half of our last game jumping around to try and keep warm.

The worst thing with this "warm weather" in Toronto is everything that is melting will be ice very soon.
I wonder if I could skate around for work which would be awesome.

I love the colder weather. -40 and humid sucks, but I'm pretty happy in most of the cold. This thaw is killing me though…

Any of y'all out on the east coast?
PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way.
GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.
PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what?
GANDALF: White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.
PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad.
GANDALF: No. No, it isn't.

Anyone following the minimum wage and the Timmys row here? Pretty bad when we fight over a $15/hr wage. Shows just how false the economy is for many. They should have to pay them that much to encourage them to work…cause there are a lot of higher wage jobs with good benefits out there…not seeing that at all. I really worry for our young people.

My one buddy moved provinces for work too.
The rest of my childhood friend group is still all stuck working in deadend jobs going nowhere fast because they don't want to move away from where they grew up.

No more life long careers at a certain location with a retirement plan. Got to be willing to relocate and accept contract work. Unless of course you work for the government. Not bashing the public sector or anything but most of them got it real good.

My Mum is a Newfie my Dad is from NB, with little more than a few dollars in their pockets they left home at 17, my Mum relocated to Ontario where her sisters were to find a job, My Grandfather dropped my Dad off at the RCAF depot and that was it, the RCAF became his new family. Thats how it was, no mollycoddling or babying there. They were tough.
Not all kids cling, a friend's son just got on with CN (CP and CN are hiring BTW), he is on the next bus to Winnipeg to start his training, he cant get out of here fast enough, happy for him and his folks.
