JD Gyms - Manchester Omdömen 

I’ve been part of JD gyms for 3 years now and I’ve seen the gym environment shift. From being here a long time, I’ve entered a change of energy with a staff member at the entrance due to a rude remark he made towards me as I was leaving. It was unnecessary and from then made me uncomfortable to be facilitated at the gym even if it’s to ask a question at reception, it just put me off as a whole. If this is the gym that I decided to go to for three years now seeing the energy of the gym change this way with the facilitators (Not PTs) then it’s unfortunate. Overall I choose this gym because I felt most comfortable here, good location but very old machines which are maintainable and apart from that there are the PTs who are friendly and are passionate about being here and helping even when not necessary. I give my props to them.

Very helpful manager, who clearly explained everything and made joining easy and quick, especially for someone who’s IT skills aren’t the greatest!

It's too crowded, there isn't an induction session for beginners to get acquainted with the gym and its machines. Moreover, in most cases there isn't anyone in the reception area to assist you. Also, there isn't any disinfection stations to wipe down the machines and weights. A separate female section would be a good thing.

Gym is big but the equipments are so old and dirty. Also, I suggest that you need to invest in cable machine because there are only a few. I suggest do not go to the gym when it is busy hour due to too many people.

The staff are friendly,
The equipment is clean and well maintained,
The price is fair
There needs to be a cold shower option. A workout then a sauna then a hot shower isn’t a good mix.

my account has been blocked despite paying and your customer service has been very poor in fixing the matter

I gave it 5 stars, the staff are really helpful and the gym is looking very nice and feel very comfortable.

Very good gym! All machines that I need, don’t face any disadvantages at all!

The equipment is in good condition. It is overcrowded at all hours, including off-peak times, so you can never comfortably workout with waiting for/sharing equipment.

Signed up on the £10 promotion with no joining fee, gym is well set out and has good range of equipment.

Used to be okay but they have now removed disinfectant and roll from the gym.

They have open matts for people to use and sweat on yet no way for people to clean properly before someone else?

A gym towel does not kill bacteria. Serious issues can be spread this way and for a gym to not take cleaning seriously due to saving costs or laziness is disgusting.

So many people...no space and hard to make friends.The equipments are very new to me as a beginner to GYM.I don't know how can I use them effectively.

I wanna recommend to have a group of beginners and then have a proper training.

Quite busy, some machines missing like pectoral fly’s & calf raises would have been nice. The weights haven’t been updated much at JD, the one in Nottingham has Eleiko new weights meanwhile the one in Manchester doesnt

Friendly and easy to use. Good lay out and equipment. Decent selection and schedule of classes.

It's fine, but the WiFi is absolutely awful and I wouldn't even call it functioning. I just accept I'm off the grid when I'm there. The Manchester city centre gym is below basement level so there is no reception. Yet you need data to pull up the QR code to scan through the gates and the QR code refreshes every 15 seconds. Who came up with this??

SH!TE

Nothing else to it other than it’s absolute rubbish

5 stars for Julius and the step class but it’s becoming impossible to get a step, even arriving 30 mins before the class starts isn’t enough most weeks. Such a shame as there’s space in the studio for more steps and then more people can take part - please fix! X

Love the step class with Julius (the best) but there needs to be more steppers!!
