JD Gyms - Rotherham Reviews 

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

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

I like the overall structure of the gym. However, I also noticed that there were no sprays or any kind of cleaning products for when you’ve done using the equipment. The vending machines were also broken.

I recently joined this gym thinking there would be a trainer available to guide me through the workouts, but unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. It would have been more helpful if someone was around to explain how to get started or assist with a basic workout plan.

On the positive side, the environment is great , clean, energetic, and motivating. It really encouraging to exercise and stay focused, which I appreciate.

I would recommend the management consider offering a day pass option. That way, new members could try the facilities before committing to a full membership.

Overall, a decent place to work out — just needs a bit more support for newcomers.

Currently training here now but looking for another gym. Used to be decent but now they have let it go completely. It's all about how many people can get through the door. The rubber on the bars are falling to pieces , the lat pull down machine pads are literally being held together by a plastic bag. The chairs at the weight section are literally falling to pieces.So much potential for this gym if someone actually gave it love and care. Needs a lot of new equipment, cables need to be oiled. This place needs some love and by the looks of it no one cares.

All gd and friendly there always happy help

Was a member years ago and definitely looks better than it did , my only criticism would be that the ladies only area isn’t big enough ,

My experience at JD gym so far has been amazing it very clean and loads equipment to use

Excellent brilliant

Poor experience at this gym. Gym is packed at 7am on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Can’t get on many machines due to how busy it is. If you actually want a good workout I recommend going at 3am when it’s quiet. Plus membership fees have gone up to £26.99 a month too. Won’t be coming back here

Awful gym. Think this gym invites machine destroyers at night time because half the machines are broken. Decided to close the lads changing rooms through the day as well. Always busy, still packed at 7am on a weekend. Plus their rising membership prices too. Big red flag
