Nice January promotion. Gym is well stocked. However, too busy. Couldn't get near the equipment. Impersonal. Not very welcoming. Walked in and made it clear it was my first time as just joined.... See more

Hi there
We are sorry to hear that you haven't been able to get through on the phone. It maybe worth noting that the busier periods are first thing in the morning and again at lunchtime. If you try to avoid those times, you should have no problem with getting through to the team.
If there is anything that the gym staff can help with in the meantime please feel free to ask them or you can drop the manager an email on barnsley@jdgyms.co.uk

A gym too small even in the morning is overcrowded. The parking lot next to the gym has damaged pavement.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
We’re afraid it's true, our gyms are very popular and can become busy especially at peak times, but this does fluctuate at different times of the day and night.
To make the most of the space where possible, though, we are always looking to expand and improve our facilities.

Good and hazards
I love the space that there is but the car park is unsafe with all the pot holes and that it is not well light. Especially for those that go later on an evening. The machines are amazing. And the staff are friendly

Left a 3 star review here couple of…
Left a 3 star review here couple of months ago. Sadly now feel the need after yesterday’s visit to leave 2 star.
Main concern last time was dangerous state of the car park. This continues with an increasingly dangerous pot hole ridden car park. Added danger yesterday was all Car park and external building lights not working. Nevertheless got changed and went into men’s toilet area. Both urinals with signs asking not to use, the other toilet area resembled pub toilets on a late Saturday night on Wellington Street. Went to wash my hands to find only one of the three taps working, and this was cold water.
Look, as in my last review the gym and the staff are ok, it’s just (in my opinion) falling below the standards of safety and expectations that I would expect from a modern 2024 gym. I do use other jd gyms throughout Yorkshire that are way and above that standard of my home town Barnsley gym.
Come on jd gyms, your Barnsley members deserve better.

I've only been once to use the gym
I've only been once to use the gym, since I joined about one week ago. But in that short time I felt at home at the JD gym. The staff are very helpful, and I found that the equipment is more than adequate for my needs. I was also looking for a gym that has a Sauna, which they have. It enables me to relax, and to sweat out remaining toxins.
I'm seventy one years old, and I was seriously considering calling a halt on joining gyms. But after enjoying my first visit to JD gym, and keeping the fees to a very reasonable level, I changed my mind. Cheers to all.
