Decent gym but definitely needs new machines, they are old and don’t work properly. Other than that all good .

I like how spacious the gym is and the wide variety of machines it offers. On my first day, the staff member at the entrance warmly welcomed me and explained the facilities.

GYM TEMPERATURE UNCOMFORTABLE
The gym before it has a cool/warmer temperature and I am comfortable to wear my gym clothes now it’s cold even in the studio. There’s no difference the outdoor freezing temperature.

The gym is well stocked and is busy but there is plenty of room between machines for it not to feel claustrophobic. The variety of machines and free weight areas means there is always available areas.

Gym equipment is excellent
Gym equipment is excellent, all fine, but jd gym also offers yoga class and here l have found a huge problem. First of all yoga teacher never showed up, there where no proper yoga equipment, was very cold in studio and noisy from the gym. I was very disappointed with yoga.

Great gym
Great gym, especially love the squat racks and the lighting round them! Really help get me in my zone! Could improve and be stricter on members leaving weights around

No supplementary email providing details sent
My experience is not a bad one regarding a particular gym site, more a poor experience from the organisation who to date have still not sent a follow up email as promised to provide me with all of the info I will need to enjoy my membership. I am filling this review in as a further attempt to make contact with JD gyms and hope someone is monitoring these reviews.

Overall Decent
Pros - Decent value, clean, good staff and free parking.
Cons - Doesn't have the same variety or amount of popular machines as some other JD gyms. High turnover of staff. Air con is rarely on if at all (Apparently due to Head Office monitoring usage at their gyms to save money on electricity.) So can get very hot. You have to ask staff to turn it on.
Overall good gym, but could improve in certain areas.

Thank you for leaving us a review.
We're always happy to find out what our members think, so if you'd like to tell us what equipment you'd like to see at our Edinburgh gym, please send an email to the Manager on edinburgh@jdgyms.co.uk
Regarding the air con, we're doing everything we can to keep Edinburgh and all of our other gyms cool. Thankfully, hot weather is pretty rare in the UK 😉☀️💪
