Great gym, I love it, enormous, plenty of fitness machines, with free wi-fi and clean toilets. They have the latest technology to get in and out with face recognition. Impressive.

A Gym Review in Verse Oh, this gym, a chaotic lair, Where broken machines linger in despair. Years they wait, rusting in plight, A graveyard of gains lost to the night. Too busy, too crowded, no room to breathe, A sea of NPCs, you wouldn’t believe. The toilets reek, the stench won’t part, And changing rooms drenched in eau de fart. The standard of folk? A dire affair, Baggy trackies and vests, with juiced-up stares. Little gimps parade with an air so grim, A carnival of egos beneath the gym’s dim. And the gym girls? A sight oft seen, Locked in a loop of the glute-machine. Three exercises, rinse, repeat, they go, For the perfect pose in a filtered glow. So heed my words, take this refrain, Seek shelter elsewhere if you value your gain. For this gym’s a circus, a maddening plight, A temple of fitness? Far from that light. More...

Been a member here for years so the gym is brilliant for its price and it’s 23/7 access but god forbid a machine breaks then you’re going to wait up to 3 months or more for it to be fixed . No new equipment in years and memebers continue to roll in . Would appreciate if the machines could be fixed a lot quicker or if not get a few more to cover them . More...

It's okay. Big and spacious. I don't like the lighting it feels like perpetual night time. Plenty of machines and equipment. It's not my vibe for a gym. I went at 1700 till 1830 and it was very busy. Still has everything you should need. 3/5 good More...

Decent enough gym for the price! However, can get extremely busy from around 5pm - 8pm, so much so that I started going at 6. 30am before work. Wish something could be done about groups of 3+ people hogging one machine at a time, makes it impossible for anyone else to get on! I've left the gym early on multiple occasions due to long waits to use one machine. More...

Good gym with plenty of cardio machines and weights. Let down by the men's changing rooms/toilets, they could do with some maintenance.

A lot of variety in equipment and machines. However, constant issues of broken machines/equipment and management very slow to rectify (months to fix! ). Also extremely busy at peak times so would avoid going anywhere between 5-8pm. Fingerprint sensors are temperatmental. Lack of lights in car park and constant issues of flooding when it rains due lack of drainage. More...

One of the best commercial gym ever. Very huge space and surroundings, good facilities but would better if they bring more equipments but yet still better than other commercial gym.

The two stars are for the equipement, the management though deserves 0.000. Since I first discovered this gym over a year ago, I was shocked at the state of the women’s toilets, extremely old, cheap plastic, damaged and constantly flooded. See the pictures. Staff is obviously well aware and so is the management.. have you no shame?! For sure you don’t have any standard or ethic to treat your customers so badly.. Notice also the absolute lack of response on the Google reviews, clearly showing they don’t care even when others have mention very real issues like the lack of lighting at night in the parking which impacts everyone’s safety. -0 for the disgusting managers who can’t think to fix their toilets for months!..

It's a good place to work out. Lots of free parking spaces, friendly staff. The changing rooms are spacious and clean. Lots of weight lifting equipment. The cardio machines area is spacious enough. It's a pity that they didn't include any of those commercial stepper machines with the 2 pedals and handrail spacing for those of us who prefer a full lower body workout and a good sweat. More...

It's an ok gym, very slow to fix machinery and get general maintenance done. The gyms changing rooms, saunas, showers and toilet are usually pretty rank due to the huge amount of people that use it.......but it will do

I only do the workouts that are specific to the goal having said that tedium is a huge problem when approaching fitness is losing drive so all my workouts are rewarding and fun.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
There is no true secret... A lot of personal trainers will try and sell you quick fix schemes which is unethical practice on the coaches standpoint. There is strategies you can follow that are only determined on where you are at in you journey with fitness and nutrition adjusted to what is most appropriate to you.

I have always wanted to be a personal trainer and being self employed has really allowed me to express what I think is the right way to help people.
