JD Gyms - Preston Anmeldelser 337

Come on JD what’s going on , lunchtimes burn and abs mon to fri were going well until you changed mon and wed to the RIG . My reviews might have mentioned it “ Really Isn’t Great “ and now it’s shown that . Numbers dropped because people didn’t like where it was . Xfit and engine would have been more successful if left in the studio . The Rig felt like a show case by the big window .on a small Cat Walk area used for ropes and sledge pushing . Customers that used the Rig for personal work outs at lunchtimes couldn’t use it anymore .
.14 people turned up the first Monday then started dropping out because It became unsafe with the equipment and unfair having to move for people . These classes are only 30 mins . To cap it all , lunch times have now dropped from 5 lunches to just two , Abs that followed on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday have gone completely. We are told lack of staff or people no longer attending . Burn which was successful were Tuesday / Thursday in the studio, now Tuesday is Xfit
The use of the RIG was supposed to bring more income ( which I guess some JD gyms might need but not Preston) .
Office workers that prefer classes to doing it alone came in their lunch breaks We pay our monthly memberships like everyone else so why ruin it ?
BRING BACK DANNY PETER .
He knows his customers , listens to what they want , he had a great team of coaches who are moving on since he left , this particular gym was known for looking after all customers whether fat , thin , young old and people with disabilities.
The pencil pushers that change these rules need to get on the shop floor and see how it works for their customers and realise successful classes don’t need changing in every gym . A manager is in that position to make that happen ,but at the moment it seems they haven’t got the right to change what comes from Head office , hope this is sorted soon , regards Jo Reeder

Too busy, too loud,

I’m a JD gyms plus member as I travel a lot so I’ve been to quite a few but JD Preston has to be the worst along with JD Bury. The biggest issue isn’t how small the gym is but actually how stingy they are with the AirCon. In summer heat you’ll find it’s still cooler outside than it is in there 🤣

Been a couple of time this pass week, since signing up. Plenty of gym equipment to suit my aim/goals. Really enjoying my gym experience.

I never thought I would be one of those girls that loved the gym, but almost a year in to my journey Alex (my PT)and the rest of the staff have given me a new lease of life. Knowledgeable, approachable and happy to help with anything, I’ve never felt uncomfortable asking for their help. Equipment is clean and despite people not putting weights back correctly, staff are always quick to put them away. Shayla and Alex are doing a brilliant team in ensuring that JD runs as well as it does and that the facilities are suitable!

Very clean, never had an issue

Big variety of equipment, clean spacious changing rooms, good lighting. Only downside is how busy it is all the time!

Overall, my experience has been really good and I’ve enjoyed using the gym. However, recently I’ve noticed that some people haven’t been unloading weights or returning equipment after they finish.

For example, yesterday I saw a dumbbell left on the floor nowhere near the rack, and no one around to claim it. Situations like that can become a safety issue if someone trips over it.

I’d really appreciate it if the staff could keep an eye on this and remind members to return equipment and be considerate of others. The gym culture is usually great, but the 7–9 pm period has recently become quite messy because of this.

I hope a gentle reminder to members can help keep the space safe and enjoyable for everyone.

Machine rowers etc need updating level 10 like pulling level 1 garbage women walking round we next to nothing on what is all that about i train hard not their for fashion meeting should be dress were

Alex Sheera from jd Preston gave us really good service, made it a very good experience for me and my friends!

Friendly staff clean gym

Seila the assistant manager is the most helpful person at JD Preston. When my membership wasn’t working and had issues, Seila went beyond and fixed my membership. She is a hardworking and deserving staff member of JD gyms Preston. Before Seila, there was no support for me at the gym, but she has helped both my mental and physical health.

JD Gym Preston is a brilliant gym with an extensive variety of equipment. The staff are welcoming, the changing rooms are roomy and always clean, and it offers great value for money.

The real standout for me is the Body Combat classes. The hour-long Monday evening session with Eleanor is the perfect way to kick-start the week. It is so energetic, motivating, and upbeat every single time.

Amazing Gym with Friendly PT’s! Been at this gym for over a decade and would highly recommend. Alex is the man for everything you need!

Aging weight machines. Should be more investment in new kit. Gym generally fine but can get busy.

I am happy with the gym it’s light and airy and the staff are super helpful if u need advice on training! I like that there is lots of great equipment too!

Your new classes, on the Rig Engine and X fit. Are not safe if you have more than 8 members, Regarding Health and safety. More members in the Burn classes, it would be better if Engine and Xfit were in the studio

The experience was down to the people and the atmosphere that this place gives.

Used to come to this gym, got a day pass as I fancied to visit again… very welcoming 🙂

Excellent equipment and clean environment
