JD Gyms - Thornton Cleveleys Opiniões 

I was happily using the gym with my friend for 15 months every week doing boxing padwork and weights 2 areas we are qualified in. then one day a member of staff came up to me and said you are not allowed to do padwork in the gym despite google actually stating the opposite which I showed him, I was told you are not allowed to bring in your own equipment to as we used to bring in our own gloves and pads due to the box of gloves jd supplied being a health hazard with so many people using them and the padding falling out, I have asked for them to send me the policies on what they are reffering to and got no reply

Far too hot in the gym. No air con or in sufficient air circulation in a premium gym of this size is criminal.

No Aircon, not good enough for almost 30 quid a month

Easily accessible and good choice of equipment

Great gym
Plenty of equipment and all well maintained
Amazing atmosphere and friendly staff
Really clean gym
10/10

All ready cancelled my direct debit after one day, lots of idiots playing stupid games in the sauna and showers. Staff didn’t do anything even though they were present

An absolutely disgraceful gym with conditions that are completely unacceptable.

The temperature inside is so extreme that training feels genuinely unsafe. The air conditioning is broken, the building has no windows that can be opened, there is almost no effective ventilation, and the entire gym feels like an overcrowded greenhouse.

Members are expected to exercise in stifling heat while packed into a building with hundreds of other people. It is unbearable, dangerous and completely unfit for purpose.

Despite constant complaints from customers, JD Gym appears to have done nothing meaningful to fix the problem. People have reportedly collapsed and become unwell because of the heat, yet there still seems to be no urgency, no accountability and no concern for member safety.

For a large company to continue taking full membership payments while refusing to provide a safe and properly ventilated training environment is disgraceful. It gives the impression that saving money matters more to them than the health and safety of the people paying to use their facilities.

The overcrowding makes an already appalling situation even worse. The gym is far too busy, the air is suffocating, the heat is relentless and completing a proper workout is almost impossible.

Many members have reportedly already cancelled and moved to other gyms because they are sick of being ignored and expected to tolerate these conditions.

This is without question one of the worst gym experiences I have ever had. The way this situation has been handled is negligent, insulting and completely unacceptable.

Until the air conditioning and ventilation are fully repaired, I would strongly advise anyone considering joining to stay well away.

Great facilities and friendly staff

Having been to smaller gyms, it’s feels very busy and cramped for space around the many machines but it’s just a matter of finding the best time to go and work around busy periods. Much better selection of machines and equipment however than most gyms.

Absolutely ridiculous that the air con doesn’t work in the gym in this heat. Heard this has been an ongoing issue since it opened in 2019. The answer is a few fans dotted around blowing warm air about. An absolute joke when people are paying money for a service

Highly recommend Joes Saturday morning HIIT class. Joe is SO full of energy and enthusiasm! Great class and a lot of fun 😁

Equipment in the gym is old compared to other jd gyms locations, rusty attachments, stiff moving machines

The gym floor is always to hot
Not enough variety and quantity of gym equipment
Opening hours are too short at the weekend

Great gym, fantastic equipment only downside is closing times on weekends. I can appreciate Sunday being different hours just like most places but wish Saturday had the 10pm close

Fantastic. Definitely worth signing up! Only thing I’d suggest as an improvement would be a bigger sauna and more cold showers.

Great gym easy to use treadmills lots of benches + equipment would be in the world class category with Myzone screens with gym leaderboard monthly challenges etc or even just the Myzone tablets on screen of whoever has them on in gym 💪🏻👍🏻🤜🏻❤️

Good gym, friendly staff.

Thank you for all your help when I really needed you. Thankyou again.

In January 2025 I decided to change gyms. I am a senior citizen (74yrs) keep fit enthusiast and my grandson recommended JD Gyms (Thornton Cleveleys). I have been training and attending gyms since I was a young man so I have seen their development and increase in popularity over the years. The equipment at JD is top notch no doubt about it and there is plenty of it. I attended at various times and never found it too busy and was always able to use the equipment I wanted. The cleanliness of the main gym area was pretty good considering the number of users. Occasionally a piece of kit was out of service but there are always others you can use.
Most of the staff are friendly and polite but dont engage you in conversation to enquire if you are enjoying your experience. Having said that if I asked I always got the information I wanted.
So all of the above points are ok now to the rest, the changing rooms. I am referring specifically to the male changing rooms which include the toilets, showers and sauna. The area in which you get changed is filled with benches and lockers and at busy times is chaotic. The room is simply not big enough, its not helped by the fact many people dont use the lockers they just leave their bags on the benches. I would rate the cleanliness of the changing rooms as unpleasant. This is in my opinion down to the size which simply cannot accomodate the number of gym users at busy times. I think its a one person full time job to keep it clean. A member of the gym staff in the changing room would also improve the overall experience as I have regularly seen people using phones to video and photograph whilst they pose in the mirror. I found this very intrusive and totally inappropriate in such an area. I raised the subject with a member of staff who told me to speak to the people who were doing it and ask them to stop. There was no offer of the staff doing anything. A couple of visits later when I asked two youths to stop filming it became controntational. This was the final straw I spoke to two male members of staff. As I explained my complaint one of the staff started smiling which made matters worse, the other told me using a phone as a camera was permitted in the changing rooms but not in the gym area. I told him this was totally unacceptable and I found it hard to believe it was true.
If I have got to my age and I am forced to endure this sort of behaviour and lack of respect I no longer wish to be a member of JD Gyms.

its a good gym but can be busy at times so it's hard to get on some machines and equitment.
