JD Gyms - Doncaster Opiniões 

has no equipment constantly waiting for machines outdated equipment aswell overall horrible gym

Joined 2 week ago the gym Is good put the showers are meant to open at 5 AM. It has only been open twice in the 2 week I have been going in the morning. I start work at 6 AM So had to go to work without a shower not happy

Its one of the more pricey gyms and from what the trainer tells me, has thousands and thousands of members for just Doncaster. The parking, I was warned was a problem, and it is difficult getting a spot. But I was more disappointed by the number of machines that were broken. I want to start of my sessions with cardio, so I went to the bikes, the first one I sat on (the left most of the six) was squeeky as hell and needs servicing. The second to left one has a sheet on it saying out of order. I then got on another, the furthest right one, and while this one seemed fine, after a while of cycling from lower to higher intensity, it just completely stopped adjusting, so the difficulty was saying 10, but it was still at 2. I then went on the treadmills to the back, I like to do incline walking as I found this burns as many calories as running, whereby I cant run much but can walk uphill infinitely. The first one from left side of the building I pressed for incline and nothing happened, it just stays flat. the next machine I tried worked fine, but there was another up there out of order. I think if youre taking in 50K a month minimum on even just 2K members, with only a couple staff to pay per shift, I think you can afford to get the machines regularly serviced and repaired. You could call out a guy tomorrow and he could probably get them all working, or tell you they need replacing. A poor experience so far, having previously been a member years ago of virgin active in leeds, where everything ran perfectly all the time, not once did I experience any problems.

Really good set up very clean changing rooms helpful staff.

The toilet taps never work, the toilet seats are loose, there’s never any toilet roll. Half the treadmills are out of order, the other half don’t work properly

changing room closed 22-05, a lot of equipment is broken, you can’t just go to car cause you won’t come back

Some gym equipment is not in use and so many kids under the age of 16 in the gym. Most staff is no where to be seen and lot of people just sit down and on the phone which is really annoying.

Amazing gym when opened and I have been a member since then. Initially there were very helpful PT’s who maintained gym etiquette/discipline, cleanliness was great, etc

Now the complete opposite. There has been no new equipment since the gym opened therefore much is getting very tired. Simple repairs take far too long. The equipment is subject to extremely high use, probably compared to most other JD Gyms therefore it should be maintained and replaced more frequently. I have handed in multiple cable attachments which are dangerously worn, evidencing either a lack of maintenance, or ‘tick box’ checks.

PT’s - due to they their contract generally do not care, apart from their clients. I have not seen one PT ask a member to re-rack weights or pick up their litter for years.

Cleanliness - this is a major concern and I’m sure if the local authority visited at certain times the gym would be closed. The male changing room and toilets should be cleaned hourly during peak times. They can be absolutely disgusting. Cleans overnight are frequently missed.

JD are happy to take money from members but only do the bare minimum in return. Considering the quantity of members at this particular gym, JD should be doing more for them. JD will probably think that the gym itself attracts so many members because it is a good gym, but unfortunately I suspect this to be mainly due to its location.

I have spoken with managers of the gym over the phone and in person. The consistent message is that they try but nothing happens above them.

A recent power outage was the final nail in the coffin. Power was off for approximately 10 hours throughout the day this week. Members were only to find out of this after travelling to the gym, as JD did not think to put messages out on social media, via email, or through their app.

I’m now looking to join another gym.

Always they got a problem with shower cabins, sauna and many training machines always out of order and looks nobody don't want to fix this. For 30 pound per month can be and better. Unfortunately but I thinking choosing another gym and it's not be JD

It’s really sad that there isn’t another gym around my area. JD Gym is the worst gym I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s always dirty, and many of the machines are often not working. Most of the equipment is from the 90s and constantly causes problems. The locker rooms are often overflowing with trash, and nobody takes care of it. It’s a complete disaster...

My son's bag, which contained all of his school supplies, was stolen from his locker while he was working out at the gym. I wonder how a gym this size can lack lockers with keys. The thief opened the locker, stole the bag, and left. The reception staff saw nothing and refused to provide CCTV footage.

Easy access and use of equipment.
Space and flexibility
Helpful staff

Equipment and changing rooms all ok . Unfortunately every time I ask about the sauna being out of order I get different answers ( usually rubbish) although I am still paying for something I cannot use , definitely need someone to be honest will it ever be working again if not I can take myself and my money elsewhere.

A good gym however a few machines are out of order in the cardio section and at busy times it's hard to use the desired machinery as it is often occupied.

The equipment is good but the car park situation is ridiculous. The men's changing rooms and sauna smell very bad and are not clean.

I used the men sauna and it was terible experience, dirty, rubish on the floor, fag ends, leak from ceiling and the water was not draining.

This is the second time I’ve join JD Gyms. The first time was when it open with all new shiny equipment.

I’ve rejoined due to JD Gyms is closer for me and easier to get to. I have found that the equipment dirty and a bit all over the place. The dumb bell rack mixed up and missing or damaged.

The attachment for the cable machines are damaged & a bit of a mix match and have made me go and buy my own handles to use.

The gym it’s self has gone down in merit in my opinion but for the hours I spend working out and location for me it’s ok but could be better.

Gym looks very trendy but the machines feel cheap and flimsy

Shocked and saddened to hear that we are losing some fabulous classes at JD Gym Doncaster
Spin classes and body attack classes all going in the name of cost cutting ! No classes on a Sunday at all !

Mark Sands classes are some of the best and most popular classes at JD Doncaster.
Some people only subscribe because of his classes
I think JD should have a re think before people start to look else where for their weekend classes
