    Gym is great, but I wouldn't mind mobile phone ban. Too many men occupying machines,sitting on them and staring at phones instead of exercising. Some of us pay to actually use the equipment

    Not a huge fan of this gym. The only exercise I find easy to do is cardio, I find weight training very hard as all the free weights are very randomly distributed around the gym on both floors. The downstairs area is very overcrowded and there is too much equipment for how much space there is, there is only one of each machine in the main weights area (every other gym I’ve been to has two of each - definitely would be able to fit more if the layout was better) and barely any of the spin bikes work properly!

    Excellent class with Asad both pump and legs bums and tums. Really pushes and motivates you.

    An OK gym. Some good equipment. Never many issues with waiting to get onto equipment. But generally, the vibe is off with it. There's no buzz in the air pushing you to work hard. Not sure what would be needed to fix that.

    Good gym lovely staff. Parking for the gym I use Stretford mall or the car park across the way. The car park across the way is only £0.50 for 3 hours. One bit of PureGym I dislike is the narrow tunnels to enter and exit. Please make them wider for people who suffer with claustrophobia. It's never too busy in there either which is good.

    This gym is great. All the personal trainers are friendly and very good at what they do. Fenella does a great set of classes each week that will leave your muscles burning :)

    As an avid night goer (11pm - 1am), I can very confidently say that this has, and always will be, my favourite gym. There are a few great 24-hour gyms around, and I can't really go in the day because I'm busy during the day and work at night. It's very spacious with a variety of high-quality machines. There are SO many sets of dumbells, so you'll rarely be sitting around waiting for some. It tends to be very quiet when I go so I can't say what it's like in the daytime but I'm almost never waiting for a machine so I can finish my workout more efficiently and head to bed. My one and only complaint, which isn't big because it's hard to find anything negative to say, would be the fact that some of the weights on the machines stick together sometimes. It most commonly happens on the tricep extension machine and a few other. Let's say you want to lift 27kg, but you'd end up lifting the 32kg weight instead, and then it unsticks mid rep, and the weight falls down aaaand BANG. Again, this is not a major issue that takes any points away, but it is a minor inconvenience

    Decent gym. The only flaws is at there is never any staff around and the gym doesn't have kettlebells which I find hard to understand. But overall its not a bad place.

    I have been a person who pays the whole months gym fees but goes only a day or two. However, the machines here are really good and i could feel the effect sooner than i was expecting.

    Just returned back, the gym was clean and has cleaning stations dotted around the gym. Wasn't very busy when I went, so I'm happy 😊

    Asad's class was brutal as ever. I felt great coming out of it. He worked everyone hard and was motivating everyone constantly. Good to be part of such a busy class!

    I have been a pure gym member for 5 years! The gym is great. Easy, and the classes are good dependant on the PT. Recently I have been doing Asads Circuit and LBT and Spin classes and I have to say I have never felt the burn since Jana Evans left! His classes are TOP. It led me to approach him to personal train me! I have only had 2 sessions and I’m already seeing a difference. His approach is very jolly and happy and friendly. Everyone says the same! I’m hoping to achieve results quickly at this rate :)

    Asads classes are brilliant he is always thinking of ways to keep his classes interesting and keep you on your toes. Definitely feel like you’ve done a workout when you’ve finished.

  • 5/5 John T. 4 months ago on Google
    Great gym and good value for money. The team of staff there are all friendly and knowledgeable. There is good range of equipment available. Asad's spin and circuit classes are both excellent. Highly recommend.

  • 3/5 L 2 years ago on Google
    the gym is quite big but many important tools are missing such as the chess press (what is there is too vertical), then the incline bench with barbell is not there (a very important exercise), some types of equipment are missing to do the pulley (that there is only one triangle that sometimes is not found), the squat stations are irregular as they must be regular otherwise one risks getting hurt, the most important thing is a nice shower after the training but the problem is that as soon as the shower starts it is too cold and after about 20s the water becomes so hot that you risk burning your skin (showers should be improved as soon as possible as everyone wants to relax at the end of a hard workout. how much no one wants to leave the gym smelly because you have other commitments)

  • 5/5 Kim B. 9 months ago on Google
    Very clean. Plenty of equipment. Descent amount of lockers.

  • 4/5 f r. 9 months ago on Google
    Great classes and Instructors even if the aircon is hit and miss...

  • 5/5 Aaron M. 8 months ago on Google
    Morning classes here are all really good. Eamon’s pump classes the pick of the bunch 💪 Fenella’s burn it/pump double session on a Monday is a killer too on a Monday morning 🤣 Gym floor upstairs is decent, only criticism is the free weights area downstairs is a bit on the small side and gets crowded easily

  • 5/5 Michael T. 5 months ago on Google
    Great value. Super staff. Courses are superb. Stretch class Sundays with Dom Excellent. Yoga also great

  • 5/5 Louise W. 8 months ago on Google
    Eamon’s Wednesday morning classes are the best way to start my day. Always worth getting out of bed for.

  • 1/5 Soran M. 4 months ago on Google
    I have been in this gym for several months now, my experiences include having my belongings stolen twice in the locker room and this time argue with a rude woman and complain on me caused my membership to be suspended, disgusting. As far as I am concerned, why the manager and hir assistant should help a member in particular, maybe they are taking bribes or something and doing something illegal.

  • 1/5 Matt W. 5 months ago on Google
    Generally maintained well enough for a budget gym but massively oversubscribed and constant efforts to push this further as with all ‘value’ gyms The worst thing - the gym has not had proper functioning air conditioning for over a year. Really poor and the gym gets incredibly warm unless it’s sub-zero outside as there’s not really any windows to allow for ventilation even

  • 3/5 Haroon A. 4 months ago on Google
    Decent gym to reach health goals. But no focus on refilling the hand gels, anti bacterial sprays to clean the machines. Even the Hand sanitizer machine doesn't work upstairs (last time I went). Lastly, even in the day time, staff is very limited.

  • 3/5 Megan C. 7 months ago on Google
    Decent gym but hardly ever any cleaning stuff, towels always running out and only one station per floor with cleaning spray.

  • 5/5 Donna E. 8 months ago on Google
    Only just returned to the gym & just done spin class this week with Asad on Thursday evening & Saturday Morning… Hated every minute (in a good way) pushes you to the limit! Give it a try you will love it!!

  • 4/5 Eyal C. 7 months ago on Google
    Great overall. Light is a bit dim, and not a lot of mirrors. I wish they also had belts (e.g. to add resistance in dips)

  • 5/5 Beth O. 8 months ago on Google
    I would recommend this gym. I attend the early morning classes. The PT's taking these classes are great!! The class content is good, they often change it up and you can do two back to back!!

  • 5/5 Marcia P. 7 months ago on Google
    Finella did another great pump class this morning. She does a well balanced and rounded out class. Loved the combo moves. ❤️ her classes!

  • 5/5 Sarah F. 4 months ago on Google
    Great classes, Asad, Beth, Fenella are amazing 🤩. Gym has great community vibe, real mix of folks, no posers or bad vibes.

  • 2/5 Ayshe M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great gym but they need to consider what tempreture they keep in it as it’s freezing cold.

  • 3/5 Jon W (. 2 years ago on Google
    Not great for parking. Can see it being an issue in the day time from what i saw of available parking. The gym itself is set out weirdly compared to other gyms, upstairs was pretty spaced out. What i wasnt happy with, was the louder than life spin class going on in the middle of the gym floor upstairs. Without decent headphones it is very off putting whilst training. Machines and free weights are what you expect of a P.G though. Not my favourite P.G if i am honest

  • 3/5 Ben R. 2 years ago on Google
    Weights room is tiny and no parking. Also in a tricky place to get too. Not my favourite gym. Much better Pure Gyms out there

  • 5/5 Sorry T. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice staff, clean and well set out for social distancing...

  • 4/5 Catherine M. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice and clean gym and often quieter than other pure gyms nearby. However, the limited parking does often sway me to go to Exchange Quay. There is the option to park beside Aldi so I wouldn't let that put you off.

  • 5/5 Danielle H. 3 years ago on Google
    Great gym, missing it lots in lockdown! Lots of equipment, great price and size. Xxx

  • 4/5 Haroon D. 2 years ago on Google
    Bit messy but overall good gym. Weights and equipment hard to find sometimes.

  • 3/5 James H. 2 years ago on Google
    Spin bikes in desperate need of maintenance & repair - I estimate only 50% of the 28 bikes are now fully working. the number working declines by the week. The PT's are aware and I have notified PureGym via Twitter and their survey form. Nothing has happened. It has got to the point where those booked on will find they don't have a bike they can use. The resistance dial on some is broken, on others its a non functioning RPM display. Those not working should be taken out of circulation and the class size limit lowered until this is resolved.

  • 3/5 sion h. 2 years ago on Google
    Not the best pure gym, not the worst, the freeweights area is too small and there are no kettlebells, also its very dark. however the middle floor has lots of space.

  • 4/5 wayne n. 2 years ago on Google
    All good & fine so far 👌 👍

  • 4/5 Miles R. 2 years ago on Google
    Lack of kettle bells on second floor kinda sucks. Bit does exactly what it says on the tin.

  • 5/5 Z głową w c. 11 months ago on Google
    PureGym is a great place for anyone who wants to work out on quality equipment at a reasonable price. The gym has a lot of different types of equipment for training, including lifts, dumbbells, treadmills, stationary bikes, and much more. It is a place where you can really work out and achieve your goals. The gym's location is also very good, making it easily accessible to most people in Stretford and the surrounding area. There are many restaurants, shops, and other amenities nearby, so you can easily combine a visit to the gym with other activities. In addition to its good location and equipment, the gym also offers great prices. Membership is available in various options, including monthly and yearly, which allows you to tailor it to your individual needs and budget. Overall, PureGym is a gym that I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a place to work out in a good atmosphere, on good equipment, and at a reasonable price.

  • 5/5 Carol H. 1 year ago on Google
    Good workout. Not too busy. Clean with good atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Hannah 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic gym! I PT with Leah and she's amazing (I'd highly recommend!) and I've seen a huge difference in under 2 months. I also access the brilliant classes with Jimmy and Asad. I've always found the staff incredibly helpful, the classes inviting and the atmosphere welcoming. Thanks, and I look forward to continuing!

  • 5/5 Thélise R. 1 year ago on Google
    Probably the best gym I've ever been. And I've tried many 🤣 always clean and free equipment, great value.

  • 1/5 Daniel A. 2 years ago on Google
    The squat rack was moved to the back wall of the middle of the room, for everyone to see like a Podium when you're trying to squat. Where is one supposed to rest now. Also, the floor is uneven on the squat rack. It's harder to do the tbar row because the floor there is also uneven. Safety issues with the tbar because it's too close to the other rack, and if plates fall off their rack it will land on the person doing the tbar. You've placed dumbbells directly behind it, one can easily start rowing, and will hit a person trying to walk over the tbar. Would suggest moving the rack back. There's plenty of room for the other new equipment, moving it has created problems.

  • 5/5 Luke P. 1 year ago on Google
    Friendly and we'll maintained. Always free equipment and cool even on the sunniest days

  • 5/5 Jules B. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Alan P. 1 year ago on Google
    A great gym with a full range of equipment, excellent classes and friendly and engaging staff, a fantastic place to work out whatever your ability

  • 4/5 Gina C. 1 year ago on Google
    Good gym but no one there to help you if you need it

  • 4/5 roz w. 1 year ago on Google
    I did LBT at 7pm and Yoga at 8pm both brilliant teachers. The studio area is like an icebox. Why on earth do they have aircon on in the winter. Turn it of please esp when doing yoga its ridiculous!

  • 1/5 Martin M. 1 year ago on Google
    It's -4c outside and the upstairs part of the gym has air con on blast! Thanks pure gym!
