Richmond’s Overdrive Athletic Club, on Elmbridge Way offers
something different from other commercial gyms–heart. If you buy a membership
and haven’t been in for a while, staff will call you to see if you are OK and
to see if there is something they can do to help you stick to your fitness
goals.
While there is no pressure to buy a membership,
they offer ongoing support to every member.
Another difference this 10-year-old business
offers is that they concentrate on Crossfit in both their classes of 10 to 15

Once you have made a fitness plan with a qualified
trainer, they monitor your progress with you, encouraging and altering the plan
as you progress.

just sell, sell, sell membership,” Tan says.
Overdrive athletic club
is committed to help each member get their money’s worth.

each member,” Tan says.
Overdrive athletic club
also supports our community, running fundraisers for Children’s Hospital, the
Richmond Christmas Fund, the Cancer Society, and Orbis Canada. Their next
fundraiser is for Canuck Place Children’s Hospice.
Tan says, “We are not a big corporate gym, nor
do we want to be. We are here for people's health not money.”
