LIFT Fitness and Performance

Today is not an easy announcement to make.

After exhausting every effort to bring in investors, partners, new ownership, and sustainable staffing solutions, LIFT Fitness & Performance Inc will be closing effective Tuesday, February 24th.

This decision comes after deep consideration and many attempts to keep the doors open.

To every member, athlete, parent, and coach who walked through our doors — thank you. You built this community. You made LIFT more than a gym.

We are incredibly proud of the strength, confidence, and friendships that were formed here.

Further details will be shared directly with members regarding next steps.

Thank you, Guelph, for your support over the years. 💙

— Graham

💙 FAMILY DAY AT LIFT 💙

On Monday, February 16th, 2026, LIFT will be CLOSED so our team (and you!) can spend quality time with the people who matter most.

Family > Everything.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t move together! Here are some fun, active ideas to make the most of the day:

❄️ Family Winter Walk or Hike – Bundle up and explore a local trail.
🏒 Pond Hockey or Backyard Mini Game Tournament – Keep it simple and fun.
🛷 Tobogganing or Snow Play – Sprints uphill count as conditioning 😉
🏠 Living Room Fitness Challenge:

10 Squats

10 Push-Ups

20 Jumping Jacks

30-second Plank
Complete 5 rounds together as a family!

Movement doesn’t have to be complicated — it just has to be done together.

🥞 Family Day Protein Pancakes Recipe

Ingredients:

1 cup oats (blended into flour)

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

1 banana

2 eggs

½ tsp baking powder

Splash of milk

Blend, cook on medium heat, and top with Greek yogurt, berries, and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Simple. Delicious. Strong-fuel approved. 💪

Due to the weather and road conditions we will be closing at 8pm tonight. Please adjust your workout times as needed.

LIFT is open for those who can make it safely.
Olympic Lifting Club is canceled though.
