JD Gyms - Rotherham Reviews 

It’s annoying that you got locked out of the gym if u step out for a sec the QR scanner won’t allow u in anymore and for the fact that no staff around to even help out makes it extremely annoying being locked out 😡

The convenience of the gym is it is open 24 hours. Also the gym is well equipped and clean.

You struggle to find the staff , not always in the office you wait for about 15min not attended.

The only thing I have to complain about is that on Saturdays and Sundays, when the locker room door closes so early, you should have given some kind of warning so that we would know or seen a small piece of paper near the door. No one even pays attention to it. You should be more careful.

I would like to give a review of this gym from been someone who has been in and out of different gyms over the years has great facilities and staff and would like to give a special mention to the pt who has trained me and given me more confidence to continue after relocating else where so the pt is mason ryles who is 100% committed to increasing your potential makes you feel fully comfortable and pushes you where you need it have seen outstanding results from training with him in a short period of time and will be taking what i have learnt even further overall great gym friendly staff good equipment where the pt's are outstanding at what they do especially Mason would highly recommend to have a training session with him

The gym is huge and it has a lot of equipment however there are too many people for you to be able to actually exercise. There are also many unsupervised children (there is not another word for these boys) who will use equipment and leave it wherever, not looking after the gym for others and being disrespectful. There are also some creepy men who just won't leave you train without trying to get you to talk to them, it's simply disgusting. I've been there twice and I already don't want to go again and it's a shame because the equipment is awesome. I wish they just limited who can access the place, even if this involved paying more monthly which I'd be happy to do so.

The facility is decent.
But the access code only works once a day.
What do they expect the members to do who train a couple of times in a day (specifically, when no staff is available to provide manual access)?
So, be ready to be stuck in such situation (unless someone sensible in the management reverses this unreasonable policy).

Not enough equipment for the amount of people in the gym, lots of empty space that could be utilised

Lots of space, more than one of most apparatus, temp is good.

Still not received a email with information/instructions on how to access the gym.. as well as not being able to access my jd account, tried changing the password numerous still not letting me. I have also been in to the gym and tired resolving the problem but no luck I have paid for a gym membership really disappointed feel as though I’m paying for nothing

I attended for the second time and this time being on an evening peak time, to find that many of the running.machines weren't working, no signs on them warning they were out of operation, only 1 ski erg in the gym of which the screen wasn't in operation

Fantastic gym with loads of equipment. Very friendly atmosphere!

Negatives-QR code in app works on and off while trying to enter/exit the gym,only found 2 rowing machines and one the screen was broken,machines like chest press,leg press,lathe pulls,bicep extensions etc there is only one of each so you can’t do a routine you have to use what is available,no coat hooks inside shower cubicles so everything you take off you have to hang over the top of the door before you take a shower,lighting throughout the gym is quite dark.Only been twice so far so there’s room for more minuses.
Poitives-excellent parking,plenty of it,locker/changing rooms are great,showers are red hot and ample space inside(just know where to hang your clothes you take off),loads of free/loose weights,excellent water station and hand wipes for cleaning down machinery,never seen so many treadmills,could loose 4/5 and put more rowing machines in?,apart from that I’ve only been a member for a week,swapped from local sports centre because it was too busy after recent refurbishment,hope this doesn’t end up the same!,it was manic on Monday night after the weekend😳.

Getting acces 24 hours is a god send
Not used it as yet but it is a good idea

Great equipment. Comfortable environment.

The Machine in there are a little bit old and it’s get a picking time little bit too busy if you want to do something you have to wait 2/3 people finish on that machine but and not the worst gym I’ve ever worked out but they can do a little bit more better with machine are very old compared to others gym

@⁨?⁩ ⭐ 1 Star Review

I fully respect JD Gyms’ policy of a minimum age of 16 membership However I was extremely disappointed at to how the manger handled the situation with my son. Instead of showing care or professionalism, they spoke to him rudely, asked him to leave immediately, and left him standing outside in the rain while waiting for me to collect him.

When I arrived, I attempted to discuss this calmly with the manager at the Rotherham branch and we know who that is even though I can’t mention there name but he was dismissive, rude, and unnecessarily aggressive. While I understand the importance of enforcing rules, there is no reason they cannot be enforced with courtesy and respect. This experience left me with serious concerns about the professionalism and customer service standards at this branch. It’s extremely concerning that if the manager at the Rotherham branch can speak to paying customers like he did what impression is he giving to other staff members and his colleagues.

Been going for a while just lacks of workout mats for burn section which they looked dated and with been doing martial arts it needs equipment to practice kick techniques as it provides for boxing.....but just needs more improvements

The staff are friendly and very helpful when you need them
I loved the fact that the gym is open 24hours as I had problems sleeping so now when I can’t sleep I can go and do my workout
And I still feel safe going to the gym at like 3am knowing that you have to scan your membership to get in

Really enjoying it expecially with it been 24hr obviously i can go down even on the night i can't sleep obviously gets busy after work still can get on with things not done any classes yet i am fancying a couple in the future need to build my cardio up more first nice clean changing room for men's anyway definitely recommend them
