About Brickhouse Gym | Built for the 1% — Regina’s Serious Training Ground
Our Story · Regina, SK

We didn’t build a gym.
We built a standard.

Brickhouse Gym was not built to follow trends. It was built to correct what most gyms get wrong — and to give serious people one place in Regina that finally trains the way they do.

Why Brickhouse exists

Most gyms are overdesigned
and under-equipped.

They prioritise convenience, oversell memberships, and sacrifice quality the moment they scale. You already know the feeling — waiting on the one machine you need, working around broken equipment, fighting a crowd for the space to train. Your time gets wasted by a room that was never built for you.

Brickhouse exists as the opposite. We opened with a simple but demanding belief: results matter, standards matter, and the environment you train in shapes who you become. We did not grow by being everything to everyone. We grew by being exact about who we are for.

The ordinary gym

  • Memberships sold without limit until the floor is packed
  • Bulk-ordered equipment chosen by price, not feel
  • Cleanliness treated as an afterthought
  • Culture left to chance and signs on the wall
  • A room you wander through

Brickhouse Gym

  • Memberships hard-capped to protect space, flow and focus
  • Equipment hand-selected for biomechanics and results
  • Cleanliness enforced as a non-negotiable standard
  • Culture protected every single day through expectations
  • A room you show up to with purpose
Built brick by brick

Not built by a corporation.
Built by someone who trains.

Brickhouse was not created by a franchise model, a venture-backed chain, or a corporate committee. It was built brick by brick by Justin Mondor, founder and president of Brickhouse Gym and Gym Star Apparel Canada. The brand’s roots go back years before the gym itself — through real bodybuilding culture, a retail counter, and a long habit of watching what dedicated lifters actually want from a room.

2007
August · The foundation

Gym Star is founded

Long before the gym, there was the culture. Justin founded Gym Star in August 2007, planting Brickhouse’s roots firmly in serious lifting and hardcore fitness apparel — the world of GASP and Better Bodies — rather than in generic commercial fitness.

2012
May · The counter

The first Gym Star Pro Shop opens

Five years later the first Gym Star Pro Shop opened its doors. Years behind that counter — talking to competitive lifters, athletes and everyday members about their training — became an education in exactly what a serious gym needs to be.

2013
Dallas, Texas · The blueprint

A trip that sharpened the vision

Justin and his team visited Destination Gym in Dallas. Its community, its atmosphere, its world-class equipment and its GASP and Better Bodies connection became a reference point for what a gym could be in Regina. Brickhouse is not a copy of Destination — but it shares one belief: a gym can be far more than rows of machines. It can become a place people identify with.

2019
March 13 · The doors open

Brickhouse Gym opens

On March 13, 2019, Brickhouse Gym opened and proved that Regina had real demand for something better than standard commercial fitness — a room built from bodybuilding culture, retail experience, and years of paying attention.

Today
1301 Osler St · The standard

12,000 sq ft and still climbing

Since relocating to 1301 Osler Street, Brickhouse has grown into a roughly 12,000 square foot environment that combines old-school training atmosphere with modern systems, premium equipment, and a digital-first, 24/7 access model. Built through reinvestment, hands-on maintenance, owner-led decisions and member-driven upgrades — brick by brick.

Results over noise

Your results should speak.
So should the equipment.

You should not have to explain where you train — your results should do that for you. Here, results come first. That starts with tools chosen for how they perform under a serious lifter, not for how cheaply they fill a floor. Every piece is selected for feel, safety, progression and joint position, then placed in clearly defined zones that respect how serious people actually train.

Prime Fitness

Plate-loaded and hybrid strength with adjustable resistance profiles and intelligent biomechanics.

Arsenal Strength

Heavy-duty, hardcore strength equipment built for durability and real muscle-focused work.

Matrix Performance

Premium cardio — treadmills, climbmills, ascent trainers and bikes for serious conditioning.

Precor GluteBuilder

A dedicated glute-training series for lower-body performance, strength and longevity.

About our members

Different goals.
The same standard.

Brickhouse is built for a mindset, not a demographic. Our members come from many backgrounds, but they hold themselves to the same standard. You’ll train beside competitive and recreational athletes — football and baseball players, strength-sport competitors — and alongside pro and amateur bodybuilders putting in deliberate, focused work. You’ll also train next to professionals who carry that same discipline into their careers.

The serious lifter

Experienced lifters, bodybuilders and physique-focused members who value equipment quality, a serious atmosphere, and room to work.

The disciplined professional

Business owners, tradespeople and executives in IT, law, accounting, healthcare and engineering who need an efficient, quality session every time.

The returning high standard

Former athletes and serious lifters coming back to training, who want a mature, structured, clean environment.

The focused member

People who train hard without chaos or pressure — and value recovery tools, calm, and a space built for longevity.

The bodybuilding culture

Members connected to GASP, Better Bodies, Gym Star and physique training who want identity, apparel culture and community.

The entrepreneur

Owners and leaders who understand that physical discipline sharpens mental performance — and that environment shapes both.

Everyone here respects the space, trains with intent, and understands that consistency matters more than shortcuts.

A community with standards

Not a social club.
Still a community.

Respect is the baseline. Effort is expected. Accountability is personal.

We believe a strong environment elevates everyone inside it. That means respecting the equipment, the flow of the gym, and the people training around you. It means showing up prepared and leaving the space better than you found it. This culture does not happen by accident — it is protected every day.

Respect the space

Re-rack your plates. Wipe down equipment. Keep the floor clear. Leave it better than you found it.

Train with intent

Headphones only, no phone speakers. This is a room for focus, not for noise.

Protect the environment

Limited memberships, real etiquette, and camera standards that respect every member’s privacy.

Constant evolution

Brickhouse has never stood still.

From expanding into a 12,000 square foot facility to upgrading climate control, lighting, layout and specialised training zones, we continuously reinvest into the member experience. Upgrades here are not marketing tactics. They are commitments to the people who train with us.

Every improvement passes one filter: does this help our members train better, recover smarter, and stay consistent? If the answer is no, we don’t do it.

Limited memberships

The reason there’s
always a machine free.

Nothing ruins a session more than someone — or something — getting in your way. Normal gyms are too crowded to guarantee a good workout. Everyone fights for the same machines until they break down from overuse and poor maintenance. Not here.

We hard-cap our memberships to preserve a carefully curated environment. No crowding. No lineups. No broken machines. Whether it’s twenty minutes on the stepmill and into the sauna, or four hours on the floor crushing weights, you get the exact workout you came for.

Because memberships are capped, spots are genuinely limited — and when the room is full, it’s full.

Built for the 1%

It was never about money.

The 1% has nothing to do with income, status, appearance or athletic level. It’s about mindset — the people who choose standards over convenience, discipline over excuses, environment over shortcuts, and identity over casual participation. Brickhouse is not for everyone, and that is the point. The people who value this kind of environment understand it immediately.

What the 1% means

  • People who train with intent
  • People who value environment and standards
  • People who respect the space, staff and members
  • People who show up when motivation drops
  • Men and women pursuing excellence their own way
  • People who’d rather pay for quality than settle for a crowded, low-standard room

What it doesn’t mean

  • It does not mean rich people only
  • It does not mean bodybuilders only
  • It does not mean men only
  • It does not mean intimidating or unwelcoming
  • It does not mean perfect physiques
  • It does not mean exclusion for its own sake — it means respecting the standard
Step inside the standard

Not just a gym. A standard.

This is a training ground. This is a standard.

Brickhouse exists for people who demand more of themselves — who understand that progress is built through repetition, discipline, and showing up long after motivation fades. If that resonates, you belong here.

Built for the 1%, because the rest have options.
