JD Gyms - Sunderland Reviews 

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.

jD is handy to where I live and the fact that it is open 24/7 is the clincher for me as I have little time to exercise as much as I would like ...around a great place .

Amazing Gym, only wish they had more machines.

Fantastic atmosphere for work out. Best in Sunderland

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,

gyms not the biggest, could do with more space and shown how to use equipment more.

Lovely staff , very helpful . And they made me feel very welcome when joining in on classes for the first time

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.

All you need in a GYM is available.

Really good experience from the smooth entry system to the number of machines available. A well equipped gym. Very clean and attractive surroundings. Changing room was good and especially liked the in house water area.

Spacious and lots of equipment. Convenient and good parking.

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.

Lovely place

Excellent gym, equipped with everything you need. Catering for new starters or for someone myself who has trained for 14 years. Been to this gym on and off now for the last 6 years.

Staff are friendly, gym is very tidy and easily accessible at any time you wish to train.

You're just left to do your own thing. The staff don't bother you, they are there to help you if you need it. Friendly, always cleaning the equipment down. Just a nice gym

All the equipment is top class and well maintained, plus the staff are very friendly and helpful

I was served with highly professional and customer center person very attentive and answer all my question showed me all the gym facility .

I have been training in gyms since 1987. Between 2016-2019 was a PT and in 2017 I was a finalist in the National Fitness Awards for PT of the year. I have been involved in customer service and sales and marketing all of my life. I was a member of JD Sunderland in 2021-2022 and I left to go to One Gym Ryhope (simply for a change). I left One Gym last month as I was becoming more and more agitated with the mess in the gym and the constant Instagram Story posting of lasses with their arses out in mirrors. When I came back to JD Sunderland I was happy to see you had added some new equipment and moved some things around. I also like it's location as it's a nice 20 minute walk to the gym and back home so it's an easy 40 minutes cardio. What I was not happy about was the same messy gym and lack of staff on hand to administer rules and be a visual identifier for the brand and gym itself. It's just expected I guess that a member can load up a machine, do a few sets and then just walk away and leave the mess for someone else to tidy up. Why is this not being policed more? As was the same with One Gym, where is your use of social media to remind people of gym rules? Where is the staff to challenge people? Then let's add in the fact that it's 'ok' now for members to train in socks. Is this a good health and safety message? And what about the toilets?...And don't play dumb. Just Google JD Gym Sunderland reviews and you'll see a ton of people complaining about the smell. I don't rate your gym or brand. For me it's purely functional. I need a gym and you're close enough.

The changing rooms stink bad every time i have been in .
The saunas too cold
All good apart from that .

Absolute circus, kids misusing equipment, grown men sitting about on machines FaceTiming their mates. Staff watching people kick the boxing bags. Equipment packed together as closely as possible. No the wonder it’s so cheap. Not to mention the place stinks.
