Combat Sport Equipment/Areas
It would be great if all JD Gyms could install more equipment for combat sport athletes, things like grappling dummies, grappling mat areas, speedbags, kickboxing ring, octagon etc.

Their app is rubbish
The app they have, cannot even generate the QR code properly. I had to ask and wait for the staff at my first time as there is no other way to enter without the qr code. Very frustrated.. I switched to them from puregym and frustrated in the first day..
And the gym itself is not up to the mark,

Provide Gym equipments instructors for new comers
Great gym center and nice gym equipments.
There should be an instructor to help new members around the gym to teach them how to use each gym equipments to avoid injuries and damages to gym equipment.

JD gyms is decent
JD gyms is a pretty good gym there is plenty of machines and racks for you to use so waiting hasn't been a problem for me aswell as this there is an abundance of cardio machines to use aswell so there is something for every aspect of fitness. It is 24 hour so you can use it at whatever time suits you. All in all it as a decent gym and i have enjoyed working out there.
