😠 Why does it close at 8pm on a Friday and not open until 9am on a weekend? Absolutely rubbish. Some people don't want to go out on a Friday night and want to hit the gym. Some people want to get the gym done and dusted before the day begins at the weekend. Change your times please!! Also, fix the...

    (January, 2019) Visited again the Gym etc in Poulton le Fylde at 9:30 am, pool empty (nice), but not nice, pool full of debris which I had to collect myself to swim. Contents hair plus fluff from floor and plastic bits. Staff came in to find out what I was doing, I said that I found in the pool and I had to clear to swim, no reaction from the 4 member of staff of reception desk, apparently doing nothing. Management don't seem to care about service in this gym. (November, 2018)The Gym etc in Poulton-le-Fylde provides a very poor customer service in my opinion. The pool is mostly occupied by classes, leaving the pool unavailable for those that just wish to swim during most daytime hours. Today was a very interesting experience, before the ladies class in the pool on Monday morning, most of the members arrived about 15/20 min before time, got into the pool and instead of swimming were standing and talking in the middle of the pool. If ladies wish to talk I strongly recommend a café, hairdresser or a shopping centre. Also I would like to find out why in the 21st century Gymect’s members must bring their own padlock? One of the employees explained that it was always like that in the 15 years she had been working there. Perhaps it is a time to change some bad habits and to fix the locker doors in the changing room as well. The last problem is poor hygiene. The smell of urine in the pool’s showers and general dirt make this place unrelaxing

    Bit worn and ready for a refurb of the pool area, things are often out of service. Also needs a good scrub. The gym area is better. Not been to any classes. Pool is small and gets busy easily.

    I have been going ever since it first opened and it’s always improved over the years. It’s now had another major upgrade of equipment. I don’t know how they do it for the price. All the staff are very friendly and attentive. Great atmosphere with a good mix of age ranges. It’s a comfortable environment.

    Went for a trail, the pool was slightly small so I was unable to get a good swim. The staff was very polite and jolly.

    Pool area lovely and dimly lit so calming area, felt it needs a good clean though, floors etc. Too much chlorine in the jacuzzi, everyone was saying same. Gym area really good

    just rejoined and staff still friendly and helpful. My only negative is that the pool looks dirty, not the water, just the tiling and windows which when going into the pool is a bit off putting. Is it ever cleaned? Also, noticed guy in jacuzzi with his phone. I don’t like that he could be taking pictures. It’s creepy. Do you have to play pool cam in refreshment area?

    It's a nice gym just small compared to leyland. So if you're local and don't have any options, great. The pool is 1.2meters Very box room sauna (which wasn't hot 🔥🤦🏾‍♀️) steam was on tho👏🏾 but didn't have an inside handle so ppl were giving tips of how to close it lol. Very typical, small, circle jacuzzi basically a confined space (I wasn't ready, and I don't mean the Coco Virus ready. No, just being on top of each other. Nice staff and it seems clean. Better showers than leyland AND controlled excess hair in this gyms floors in the ladies is way better, but I went at after 7pm

    Excellent gym, now refurbished with new equipment. Excellent weights room separate to main gym. Friendly staff and great atmosphere.

    Good range of equipment. Friendly staff, spacious. Only criticism is that the sauna and steam room are dirty and could do with a good clean.

    It's a good gym, great equipment and pool resources but they bend you over backwards with joining fee's and maintenance fee's + inflation prices.

  • 2/5 Dan W. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice gym, good equipment, but some clientele leave a lot to be desired. Vaping in the changing rooms and effing and jeffing whilst I'm there with my 10 year old at his swimming lesson.

    I have been a member at Gym Etc for many years. It is a great friendly environment and all Covid measures are in place. It has been a life saver over the last nine months!!

    Decent gym people are nice in there staff are friendly and nice But the music they play is terrible Love songs and ballads on the speakers almost kills your workouts

    I was a member of this fantastic Gym 5 years ago, when I was just 16 years old. A few years later, I was lucky enough to be offered a position working here. I can honestly say, it's the BEST gym to not only train in, but to work in too. The Manager is just wonderful. You couldn't get a fairer, more supportive boss. The other staff are ace too, we make a wonderful team and we are all firm friends :) I'm a keen/aspiring body builder and Gymetc Poulton has all equipment I need. I especially love to train chest, but I'm not adverse to a banging leg day either. I really do feel like it was the best decision of my life to work here :)
