I really like the new glute area offering more equipment besides traditional machines you’d find in any other gym. Hybrid area is great too for CrossFit. On the downside, it gets busy with lots of hog... See more

Nice January promotion. Gym is well stocked. However, too busy. Couldn't get near the equipment. Impersonal. Not very welcoming. Walked in and made it clear it was my first time as just joined.... See more

Great gym plenty of equipment available does get a little busy at peak hours as expected but early morning or late evening is spot on

Hi Kelly
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review - we absolutely love to hear this. Our team strive to make your experience with us the best it can be. We are really pleased you're enjoying your JD Gyms experience. 💚
Overall, great Facilites that need some tlc
Great gym for equipment. Some of it remains out of service for weeks, batteries on bikes and rowers need proactive checking. The worst area - the ever deeper potholes in the carpark. Initial perception is a lack of care and investment.

Compact and very busy
Firstly, in terms of parking it is very busy from 12-8 and car park is very busy so hard to park. However, in terms of the equipment it as varied equipment to use to work out.

Reply to JD Gyms response
Thanks for the reply but unfortunately the gym will not be able to contact me via phone now. The lack of response from the PT was the issue !

Good facilities
Good facilities, equipment and changing rooms, very clean. Have never found it difficult with availability of equipment.
The reason this is not five star review is, although there are staff around, they aren't easily accessible are often out of sight and are not the most approachable (aloof).

Hi there
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review.
We’re afraid it's true, our gyms are very popular and can become busy especially at peak times, but this does fluctuate at different times of the day and night.
To make the most of the space where possible, though, we are always looking to expand and improve our facilities.

Good overall gym
Very good gym. Only downside would be they need more plates for smith machines and free weights. Doesn't need to busy and you need to look around to find them. Also more cable machines, peak hours haven't a chance getting on them, especially when college kids are in.

Great gym everything you need but one down fall is changing room closing at 12-5am when I go around 4am plus sauna isn’t hot at that time could do with putting it on before to get it heated up

Hello! Thanks for leaving us some feedback, we appreciate it.
We are a 24-hour gym in Barnsley, but due to there being less staff on duty throughout the night, areas which are not covered by CCTV are closed for the safety of our members (i.e. the main changing rooms and saunas).
We do however leave the accessible changing room open at all times, as well as there being lockers for you to use. If you need to get changed or grab a shower during the night, that option is there for you and you'll have complete privacy in there.
Hope this helps!
