If you have easy access to crowchild then I'd say try Pro-Bodies in Marda Loop. I moved here a few weeks ago and the traffic gets so bad on Crowchild going to northland's golds I just said fuck it and got a second membership that's convenient for me.
The equipment is a little dated, but it's usually preatty dead in there. I prepaid 6 months upfront and it ended up costing me 35/month + 20 for a card which is pretty cheap. If you're serious about lifting they have everything you need in a super chill atmosphere and at a great price.
Northlands is really good too and I absolutely love it there. But it gets so busy in there that there's almost always a line and the traffic north of the memorial exit is just terrible.
We stopped checking for monsters under our beds when we realized they were inside us.
