    The gym boasts top-of-the-line equipment and a clean and well-lit area, making for an enjoyable workout experience. However, there is a problem with staff members engaging in prolonged conversations with other members while holding onto equipment, causing delays for other gym-goers. This can be incredibly frustrating and disruptive to one's workout routine. While the gym's facilities are excellent, this issue with staff needs to be addressed in order to improve the overall gym experience for members.

    Equipment poorly maintained failing apart, handles for cable machines broken and is only two for the full gym and its fixed with knots, cords almost breaking, hooks of different sizes and shapes which interfere with exercises as one is longer than other creating loss of equilibrium. I think a gym chain like jd can afford to put proper handles, hooks and cords for the users, not even backyard gyms are in this awful situation. Apart from that the gym is usable.

    Great gym with plenty of weights, squat racks and cardio equipment. Only gripe is that it could do with opening 24 hours as many other JD gyms are.

  • 4/5 Steven A. 5 months ago on Google
    The gym is okay, but there never seems to be enough equipment to use when it's busy. There are only 3 squat racks in there, compared with East Kilbride, which has 9 Squat racks, There's also not enough benches at peak times. All in all at peak times it's best to avoid.

  • 1/5 Oliver M. 2 years ago on Google
    When this gym opened it was amazing. But it obvious it's not been look after and the equipment is not maintained. All the resistance machine have loose cables, some even had screws falling out, padding damaged and ripped. Everything feels dirty like it has a layer of grease on it. Such a shame! Had so much potential

    Really nice gym which is clean, bright and well looked after. I generally only go in the morning and it is usually pretty quiet and i have no problem using the equipment I want.

  • 4/5 martin B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great gym and great equipment. Plenty of space to do a work out.

  • 5/5 Stuart 2 years ago on Google
    Such a good gym massive range with everything you need. Aswell so easy to access.

  • 5/5 stuart m. 2 years ago on Google
    Great gym. Lots to choose from. My only gripe is that I can't swing around the bars like the South side. I appreciate that not all things are the same.

  • 5/5 James O. 2 years ago on Google
    If you're in the area and are serious about your training this is possibly the best place to train, they have a great selection of equipment, the staff are sociable and the overall environment has good vibes. additional plus: Pec bouncing in the mirror for an additional pump after a great chest session is allowed, no lunk alarms will be set off #Highlyrecommended

  • 1/5 Stanley A. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice and sophisticated equipments

  • 5/5 Dauber 2 years ago on Google
    The perfect gym, very stylish and super good looking, gigantic with literary unlimited equipment, weekends are always less busy. The equipment are top notch, friendly helpful staff 10/10 for all. Changing rooms are great, loads of space, mirrors, 1 full body mirror, hair dryers, loads of lockers. But you must get yourself your own lock. There is a vending machine that sells good quality jd gyms locks and they are 4 digit coded, you can reset them too, £5 but only pay by card unfortuantely. Overall this is the number 1 best gym I have ever been to and will be to most likely. 10/10 in everything, outstanding gym with billions of equipment, loads of space too. 100% recommended

  • 3/5 Blair C. 3 years ago on Google
    Well equipped gym with a nice layout. The thing that lets this place down is the members seem to be allergic to putting weights away properly. Shame.

  • 5/5 Annemarie M. 3 years ago on Google
    Gym is clean with cleaning stations all around machines spaced out

  • 5/5 David C. 3 years ago on Google
    Gym very clean and staff are very friendly. Plenty of cleaning stations

  • 5/5 Alan M. 3 years ago on Google
    Been about many gyms over many years. By far my best experience to date. Will and his staff make this a friendly and pleasant place for all your fitness needs.

  • 5/5 F 1. 3 years ago on Google
    This really is the best place where i have trained, staff give everyone a 5 star service and are very knowledgeable and friendly with all the kit being the best of the best and different to other gym's i have been to, and the team always go above and beyond and really enjoy spending my training here and would not train anywhere else.

  • 5/5 Darren M. 3 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff that are there if you require any help. All the exercise equipment you need is there and there's always machines available for use.

  • 5/5 Victoria Thomas C. 3 years ago on Google
    Very Clean I felt safely, before Covid customers were not required to wipe the equipment now they do. Gyms should always have this in place it shouldn't have taken a virus

  • 4/5 Erin H. 3 years ago on Google
    Brilliant kit and friendly staff. I would give five stars, however many gym members are completely careless and do not seem to care much about reducing the spread of covid-19. The gym encourages wiping down kit/equipment, wearing face masks in loos and when transversing the gym, but these measures are not routinely enforced.

  • 5/5 Michael R. 3 years ago on Google
    Great

  • 5/5 Nic M. 3 years ago on Google
    Decent kit, plenty of space to find your own workout spot, great staff who are always on hand if you need anything. Background music decent too lol. Plenty of cleaning kit around which is reassuring for anyone concerned. One of the best bigger commercial gyms around.

  • 5/5 Stuart “Stubino” G. 1 year ago on Google
    Genuinely the best gym I've ever been to in 15+ years of hitting the gym. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Paul N. 4 months ago on Google
    Great gym, great staff, great facilities. Great location! I just wish customers would put weights away after using them.

  • 5/5 Super F. 6 months ago on Google
    Amazing facilities staff have reasonable knowledge to help with, very clean compared to Jds southside

  • 5/5 Chris I. 9 months ago on Google
    Great gym, has loads of variety with kit and a great functional space, staff are all on the finest of protein shakes I must say

  • 5/5 Michal S. 7 months ago on Google
    A lot cleaner than Glasgow South. Overall a good impression. Staff are only interested in closing time.

  • 5/5 Kezzz H. 6 months ago on Google
    Can’t really fault this gym to be honest. Always enough parking & although it can be busy there is plenty of machines & space where you aren’t hanging about. Sauna as well which is great. My only gripe (and this is for JD gyms in general) is the app needs a majorly updated as compared to other gyms it’s severely lacking

  • 5/5 Diana N. 6 months ago on Google
    When it comes to professionalism and knowledge, the team at JD is in a league of their own. Their expertise in the industry is unparalleled, and every member of their team exudes a genuine passion for what they do. You can count on them to provide you with the most serious and reliable guidance throughout your journey, no matter what challenges you may face. What sets JD apart is not just their expertise, but also their genuine care for their clients. They go above and beyond to ensure that you receive the support you need at any time. Personally, I have not only found the best deal through JD, but I have also gained amazing new friends who have provided me with incredible emotional support during my journey of moving on from my ex-boyfriend. If you are someone who values real results and is willing to put in the work, I can confidently say that JD is the best place in Glasgow for maximizing your ROI. Their commitment to excellence and unwavering support will undoubtedly help you achieve your goals.

  • 5/5 Louise M. 10 months ago on Google
    It's the best place to start your fitness journey as I'm just new to it and the classes ie,pilates,tone,yoga etc are fantastic

  • 5/5 Malwina K. 1 year ago on Google
    Zumba ,joga and LTB class with Fiona are amazing . You are tired but happy and excited after always! ♡♡♡

  • 4/5 linzi-lou 1 year ago on Google
    Decent enough gym but don’t waste your money on a PT. Tried to reschedule a session and lost £30 for it, total waste of money and got nothing from the pt!

  • 5/5 Eric J. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice big gym with friendly personnel. A lot of options, clean and well preserved.

  • 5/5 Tommy T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great gym, lots of equipment and spacious layout.....but please fix the thermometer in the sauna.

  • 5/5 R B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great gym with bright open areas and a sauna as well. If you are looking for a personal trainer to help you reach your goals quickly and with low risk of injury then ask for Jen. She is amazing and helped me make the most my time.

  • 3/5 Gill W. 1 year ago on Google
    An average gym. It had some decent classes but could do with more. Very much like the low cost Pure Gym but more expensive with no obvious reasons why. It is within walking distance of the house so that makes it the choice for me as I am inherently lazy. Update: Their app is now not very helpful as you can't trust that classes are on or sometimes there are classes not on the app...kinda misses the point of an app imo. I don't want to leave my house to find a class is/isn't on....

  • 5/5 Satas K. 1 year ago on Google
    A lot of space and equipment, free classes. The atmosphere is great, I recommend it.

  • 5/5 Scotch B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere. Friendly staff, Equipment is great. Overall a positive experience

  • 3/5 Jacek K. 2 years ago on Google
    The sauna is regularly off. Today I have spoken to 5 different people who wanted to use the sauna and we all think the same. You are ignoring your customers and charging for a service you which you fail to provide. Most people believe you do it deliberately to put people off from using it and causing you extra trouble.

  • 5/5 Dr Maaz S. 3 years ago on Google
    Really good gym. Genuinely the only thing they could improve is having some sort of indication of quiet times and busy times. I've always preferred going when it's quiet and covid has only made that worse. They do however have excellent protocols for covid disinfection. Cleaning station all over the place.

  • 5/5 Alex F. 1 year ago on Google
    I like it because you don't have to wait to get on any equipment plenty of space and it's got everthing you need for a work out

  • 5/5 donald a. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 John James A. 4 years ago on Google
    Great gym but people parking in the disabled bays is a disgrace... even when the carpark is empty. They should be ashamed of themselves.

  • 2/5 M T I. 4 years ago on Google
    After 1 year not the same hygiene as when it opened, mats stink and never cleaned, new manager Phil very arrogant, as is his staff, some new PTs over the last 6month very rude and out of shape pretending to preach Health & Fitness I agree with Gill Wilson bad manners obvious amongst most PTs immature it's a wonder why it's not as busy as it used to be.

  • 5/5 Elaine F. 4 years ago on Google
    Great facility, great space

  • 5/5 Ross T. 4 years ago on Google
    Class equipment at a good price

  • 5/5 S B. 4 years ago on Google
    This is one of the best gyms I've been to! Staff are always friendly and helpful. The classes are different depending on who is taking them, so you have a little bit of variation. It's easy to get a bit of help or advice if it's needed. I'd highly recommend this place to everyone.

  • 5/5 Matthew K. 4 years ago on Google

    Fabulous facilities and staff. Instructors go the extra mile and equipment is spot on. Great workout again today

  • 4/5 Ian S. 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic gym, new equipment, great space, yoga teacher is brill, it has a small sauna. Only thing is the location isn't great due to Maryhill Road being so busy and having to drive round Graigmont Drive which is bumpy and narrow.

  • 5/5 Craig S. 4 years ago on Google
    Great equipment, great staff, lovely space, clientele aren’t arsey, and they have accessible toilets and changing rooms for anyone who doesn’t feel comfortable or can’t use standard changing rooms!

    Great gym just a pity its not 24hrs

  • 5/5 Jonathan G. 4 years ago on Google
    Great gym! For £20 a month it’s the best gym deal you can get. Huge selection of equipment and there’s free parking.

  • 4/5 Zak L. 4 years ago on Google
    Good value, well equipped. But Would really appreciate some proper squat racks with adjustable safety's.

  • 5/5 Nicole A. 4 years ago on Google
    Very good set up, tons of machines to choose from and they even have a sauna

  • 5/5 mark w. 4 years ago on Google
    Great gym plenty of equipment helping to constantly vary the workouts. I find this best as your body will get used to the same things and stall progress so the ability to to through in different movements is always a bonus.

    Honestly cant believe what they have to offer, its so big and deceiving, just when you think you have seen the lot, there is a full free-weight section with a full row of squat racks! Amazing - would give it ten stars if i could!

    Great gym with alot of various exercise machines for chest, I went for the free one day guest pass. Really enjoyed the experience well worth it.

  • 4/5 Michael W. 4 years ago on Google
    Good gym with lots of equipment and classes with a sauna as a bonus. Only downfall is the distance I need to travel from home to the gym from which can get stuck in heavy traffic during rush hour which can be really bad. Also, car parking spaces in the carpark are really small, so can be quite really tight for space.

  • 3/5 Gill W. 4 years ago on Google
    It's functional. After nearly a year open its beginning to tire. It smells pretty badly from sweat - more than any other gym I have been to- probably because there are no means provided to clean equipment after yourself, despite signs telling you to! The studio floor is almost always dirty, with the same dirt for days....there is a wee green sweetie by the bar weights that has been there a while. Not nice when you have to out your face near the floor. Mats also need cleaning. Burn studio floor has little ball bearings on it which is weird. No mats outside of studio which is not helpful. Toilets sometimes a bit sketchy. Staff parking in disabled spaces is a disgrace. Highlight, and reason I keep going, is instructor Viv whose classes are worth joining for. She is by far the best teacher and should give lessons on use of mic and projecting personality to some of the more junior instructors.
