I met Connor, the owner of Thunder & Lightning Performance, and his dog Dublin—the unofficial welcoming committee by chance in a Hamilton coffee shop—just as the team was preparing to launch a 6-Week Adult Transformation Program. It truly felt like it was divine intervention because I had just been thinking, “I need to do something to get back in shape and live healthier.”The program was so much more than workouts. It included coaching, a customized nutrition plan based on my goals, education, accountability, and an incredible staff who challenged us while keeping safety equally important. As someone new to weight training, I was never intimidated by the equipment or exercises because the coaches met me exactly where I was.The size of the gym and the staff create an amazing culture. Everyone supports one another, whether it's sharing experiences on the social app or getting a high-five by name during a workout.And the result? For the first time in my life, I won a physical competition! 🏆 More importantly, I gained confidence, knowledge, and tools that I carry forward.I’m incredibly grateful to Connor, Coach Shawn, and of course Dublin, and the entire T&L crew for creating a place where people feel supported, challenged, and capable of more than they thought possible.

Go here! A while ago I trained for a year, I became much stronger while learning a ton about my body. I came in barely being able to do an inclined pushup to doing multiple sets extremely close to the ground. The gym itself is organized nicely and has anything you need for a great workout. Connor and Shawn are extremely knowledgeable and will always push you to be your best! Work nutrition with Shawn if you want results, he helped me lose 17 pounds healthily over 3 months

TNL is an exceptional place to train. First the tailored workouts with state of the art equipment have enabled results above expectations. In addition the culture is inclusive and allows people of all fitness levels to work out together. They enable flexible schedules and will work with you to make it a great experience. I actually looking forward to waking up early and getting an amazing workout.

Three years later and I’m still loving it!!!!Finding a new gym with an adult component can be a challenging task. The entire team at TNL made the entire process a breeze - not to mention their training program is top-notch. From the initial evaluation to the monthly programs, everything is tailored to meet each individuals skill and fitness level, aligned with their goals. They provide individualized coaching, nutritional guidance, all while encouraging you to do your best - without being overly “rah rah” or in your face. The gym is a fun atmosphere, with other members constantly encouraging and pushing each other. I highly recommend TNL to anyone looking for that “community” feel!

Almost 250 sessions down and still coming back. Best decision I’ve madeAlmost a year down and 150 plus sessions later TNL still exceeds every and all expectations. I look forward every week to come in and workout. They’ve adjusted my program to work towards new goals I’ve set and I have no doubt that they will help me achieve them.Update! The end of this month makes 6 months that I’ve been at TNL. They continue to exceed all of my expectations. They are constantly looking for ways to improve, asking us how what else they can be doing for us, what works and what doesn’t. I’m doing things I never thought I would be able to achieve. I really love how interactive they make the sessions. There are always new challenges to keep things fun and interesting. I also really appreciate the fact that they are always having charity workouts, allowing us as a community to come together for something bigger than ourselves. I would always recommend anyone to come and check it out to see what TNL has to offer.Joining TNL has been one of the best decisions I have made. I knew from the first phone call that this place was more than just another gym. Connor took the time to listen to all of my questions and concerns. He explained everything in detail and made me feel comfortable enough to come in and check it out. They are careful and extremely knowledgeable about many things including injuries and how to help with them. I joined TNL in April for the 6 week transformation challenge and stayed after it was finished. I went into this not knowing much, and not able to accomplish much. The challenge was a great way for me to start and learn about the gym and the proper way to do many of the exercises. Each week I was challenged and pushed in a good way. I became stronger, and noticed a huge difference in my day to day life. I enjoy coming every week. I have never felt like I couldn’t do anything. All of the coaches have helped me achieve goals I never thought would be possible. When people say its like a family here, its true. Every single person I’ve come in contact with (staff, athletes, adults) have been welcoming, incredibly supportive and encouraging. TNL has truly changed my life for the better and I cannot thank Connor and the staff for helping me jumpstart the process. I highly recommend for anyone.

TNL has been a great experience for my daughter. She looks forward to every session. The staff is great at keeping sessions fun as well as intense enough for continued growth. I not only see growth in her physical power but in her mental presence on the soccer field. Great growth environment.
