    Great gym, lots of room and well stocked gym (although if you've been to the University's other gym powerbase you might be a tad underwhelmed). Clean changing rooms with good showers. Helpful, friendly staff. Does get busy in term time especially on an evening but also you can find that early mornings are not quiet either. You can tell it's a sports university!

    Would be 5 stars but it's just far too busy these days. They either need to keep it open overnight, (23 hours a day with an hour for charging and cleaning the equipment would be nice) or just stop selling so many memberships. It wouldn't be so bad if I just did cardio training, but there are regularly 60 people in the weights area alone at any given time. Powerbase has the exact same problem. Apart from that, it is a great gym, which is probably why it's so busy, but it is getting to the point where there are so many people there all the time that it is pointless going if you have anything else you need to do within the next three hours.

  • 5/5 Hello, my name is J. 6 years ago on Google β€’ 15 reviews
    Very well-equipped gym staffed with helpful professionals. Can get very busy at times, but there's generally enough equipment for everyone. Changing rooms and lockers are available. The sports hall is well-kept and can be booked out privately or used to join free sessions. Fitness studios are also present.

    Great campus gym. Lots of cardio machines, good selection of resistance machines and free weights (if free weights are your main thing though, you'll want Powerbase at the other end of campus). Lots of classes to choose from, and membership includes one to one sessions when you need them, so pretty good value too. Website also tells you how busy it is, which is super useful for deciding when to go.

    The gym offers great equipment and facilities, but it is overwhelmingly crowded, making it challenging to maintain a consistent workout routine. It's a great option if you can tolerate the busy atmosphere or if you are lucky to be able to visit during off-peak hours. Maybe they need to reduce the number of memberships they offer.

  • 1/5 Lau G. 1 year ago on Google β€’ 18 reviews
    Incredibly rude staff. Maybe because I am a foreigner so British people have nothing to worry about lol. I am a student and in 2020 I went to the gym with my friends. I booked with my personal email and gave them my loughborough email by mistake, they said it’s not here, leave in an extremely dry way. I said maybe I used another of MY emails to log in? Can you check with that? The man refused and said I don’t know why you told me that I could report you to the authorities for stealing someone else’s email in a threatening tone. He interrupted me over and over with a frustrated tone so no wonder he didn’t listen to what I was saying, it was another email of MINE. I was incredibly shocked bc he was talking about reporting me and legal matters/ police. He was rude the whole time and didn’t let me in unless it was my university email and wouldn’t let me speak, he kept interrupting me and threatening.

    Looks decent, but again im not sure where this is, im from the east midlands leic, and most recently have made some arrangements to join a leisure centre.

  • 5/5 Kenpachi B. 6 years ago on Google
    Love it. High tech equipment, plenty of machines/equipment and large freeweights area. Shame it's not open 24/7 and closer to the centre of campus.

    For the price, this gym is incredibly good value for money with well maintained TechnoGym equipment. There is plenty of variety of equipment but there are times when it can get quite busy inside

    Really love this place! I went there because a bunch of friends invited me for basketball and the court was amazing. The court wasn't slippy, the rims and net where in perfect condition, plus the backboard was large. Thank for a great experience!πŸ‘ŒπŸ™Œ
