Club Flex History

 

           Club Flex Athletics is located in the beautiful city of Squamish B.C, the outdoor recreational capital of Canada.  Squamish B.C has many popular attractions such as visiting the Stawamus Chief, a huge granite mountain favoured by rock climbers around the world.  Other great attractions include the Shannon Falls waterfall, river rafting on the Elaho and Squamish rivers, wind surfing and kite surfing at the mouth of the Squamish River in Howe Sound, snowmobiling on nearby Brohm Ridge and bald eagle viewing along the Squamish river which has one of North America's largest populations of bald eagles. Squamish is also a popular destination among Greater Vancouver hikers, mountaineers and backcountry skiers, who visit the large provincial parks in the surrounding coast mountains.  Another fitness activity popular within Squamish is mountain biking, with over 600 trails suitable to all abilities surrounding the town. One of the more famous events supported by the mountain biking community is the Test of Medal, a 67-km cross-country mountain bike race held annually in late June.  Squamish is over flowing with fitness enthusiasts and it is easy to see and experience how Squamish is the outdoor recreational capital of Canada.  Club Flex Athletics has always been proud to supply the perfect place for indoor seasonal/off-season training to supplement Squamish’s immense outdoor activities, exercise rehabilitation options and overall fitness maintenance for most active/non-active individuals.

The Beginning of Club Flex

Club Flex opened in October of 1991 with half the square footage. (3000 square feet) As you can see from the pictures below the club was a little different. Most of the old equipment was made by Global Fitness Inc. The club stills carries the same dumbell set that it did, when it first opened. (if it's not broke, don't fix it) By clicking on the Equipment and Facility link, you will be able to see some of the changes the club has made over the 20 years that it's been open.
