JD Gyms - Thornton Cleveleys Omdömen 

Being 70 yes old,I was pleased to see agood mix of ages .Made me feel confident and I enjoyed the experience. I will definitely become permanent member.

I last reviewed JD Gyms Thornton-Cleveleys in December 2023 when I was just 3 months into gym life. This was the very first gym I had walked into when I joined in September 2023 at the age of 55. I had never been into fitness, gyms, or a healthy lifestyle previously.

I have been to several JD Gyms since (including Derby, Rugby, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Blackpool and Preston) and Thornton-Cleveleys is by far my favourite. I love the atmosphere. Everything in one big space. No need to constantly go up and down stairs (unless you specifically want the studio).

The staff are super helpful and friendly. Caz looks after a great team of people (including Lewis (#1), Ella, Andy, Tony, Oscar, Justine and Lewis (#2)) and the PTs (Stacey, Carol, Mikey and Pres) always seem busy with clients as well as taking time to say hi and be friendly. It has to be said that Caz is a good manager and is night and day compared to the previous manager (Gaz) who did seem to be a source of disgruntlement when listening to conversations in the sauna. I don't hear anything negative these days.

My personal experience is now guided by Carol West, my personal trainer/coach. Having started out training with the brilliant Matty Schmid (he can be credited with helping me fall in love with gym life. He took a very nervous gym virgin and built my confidence and self-belief) in September 2023 and continuing with him as he progressed to duty manager at Preston and now assistant general manager at Blackpool, my journey is now with Carol. Starting training with Carol in July 2025 took things to another level. She programmes my solo training days alongside the in-person PT days and nutrition. Always smiling, making training challenging but fun. Checking-in on progress and ensuring things are kept on-track to help me achieve the big goals that I have set for myself. For anyone wondering if it is worth having a personal trainer... if you are new to the gym or if you have specific goals then it will certainly help you achieve them... and Carol West Coaching is certainly one of the best!

The gym itself is kitted out with a great range of equipment. Everything is kept clean, locker rooms are well maintained and the sauna is a good size. We could do with the coffee machine being replaced in the cafe area as this broke a year or so ago and has now been completely removed. There is no sign of it being replaced meaning the cafe area is just a seating area. I bring my own coffee in, setup my laptop and get a couple of hours work done before training most days.

Would I recommend JD Gyms Thornton-Cleveleys? If you've read the above then 1) Well done and 2) Of course I would! The JD Gyms membership is really good value regardless of which branch you go to, but Thornton-Cleveleys was my first ever gym and will always hold a special place in my fitness journey.

JD Cleveleys is a great gym, plenty of equipment for both weight training and cardio, the staff are friendly also which is a bonus

Always staff available and someone cleaning the gym and equipment.

Very reasonable monthly cost as well so no complaints there.

This is a very well equipped gym plenty of cardio machines and plenty of free weights and benches. The staff are very friendly and always ready to help if anyone needs.

Just started going to this gym. I love it. Lots of cardio machines, weights and classes going on. Beautiful clean changing rooms with plenty of lockers.

Iv paid 15 quid for first mount gavemybank details ,then recieved an email to say my bank direct debit cnt be setup,iv now been logged out of the app si cannot enter the gym until this is sorted apparently,so my first month is pretty over by the time this will get sorted,

Good selection of equipment. Always able to get on stuff even when bust. Just easy.

The gym is nicely laid out and feels spacious. The instructors are really friendly and helpful. There is plenty of equipment to suit all needs.
The gym is clean but it would be great if there were more cleaning products available for customers to clean the machines after they’ve used them.
More plyometric boxes would also be appreciated too 😊

Very friendly gym, plenty of equipment and lots of classes

One of the best gyms i could ask for everyone there is friendly and approachable. Facility's are amazing and could not improve in any way

I get too hot, Im trying to improve my running, and I just get so hot. I dont think its cool enough.

My joining reception was handled in a friendly and professional manner, Andy showed me around and explained things very well asking if I had any specific personal training needs.
Gym equipment extensive/ impressive.
The pricing poing and lack of tie in contract is ideal and persuaded me to join.
