Good gym with decent equipment
Good gym with decent equipment. Unfortunately on many occasions both early day and evening time varying times not the same to be honest, but extremely busy just feels like the gym is over subscribed. On a few occasions my wife myself and my daughter went, only to find one or two pieces of equipment available to use just way too busy.
Staff are fine, facilities fine, just seems to be over subscribed. Time to find another gym.

MANAGEMENT CHANGES
In Preston we have had a lot of changes within management in a very short time, I have been a member for several years now and usually go 6 days out of 7 I only do the spin class due to age and ability.
I would like to say a big thank you to Lucy and Chris who have been keeping things running under difficult circumstances, hopefully decisions will be made very soon for long term stability.

Chris keegan helped me with an issue at the gym. He was very polite and empathetic. He didn’t hesitate to help me and did everything he could. He’s a top man and a good advocate for JD gyms Preston.

Great friendly staff
Great friendly staff, loads of equipment, kept clean, easy access 24/7. Timing when managing payments is a bit tricky if you want to pause or cancel for any reason - it has to be submitted and approved and there is a fairly early cut-off to avoid your next payment, but the gym experience has been good

The gym seems great but busy
The gym seems great, with many options, but a little too busy in the after work time slot, so I haven't been this week.
I am changing my personal gym timetable for the coming week so that I can come when it is less busy, just until I get used to the equipment.

Hello – Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. We’re really pleased to hear you think the gym is great and that you’re enjoying the range of equipment available. We understand that it can feel quite busy during after‑work peak times, especially when you’re still getting used to things. It’s a great idea to try different times of day while you get familiar with the equipment, as quieter periods can make that much easier. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope you continue to enjoy your visits moving forward.

The Rig , Really Isn’t Great
Come on JD what’s going on , lunchtimes burn and abs mon to fri were going well until you changed mon and wed to the RIG . My reviews might have mentioned it “ Really Isn’t Great “ and now it’s shown that . Numbers dropped because people didn’t like where it was . Xfit and engine would have been more successful if left in the studio . The Rig felt like a show case by the big window .on a small Cat Walk area used for ropes and sledge pushing . Customers that used the Rig for personal work outs at lunchtimes couldn’t use it anymore .
.14 people turned up the first Monday then started dropping out because It became unsafe with the equipment and unfair having to move for people . These classes are only 30 mins . To cap it all , lunch times have now dropped from 5 lunches to just two , Abs that followed on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday have gone completely. We are told lack of staff or people no longer attending . Burn which was successful were Tuesday / Thursday in the studio, now Tuesday is Xfit
The use of the RIG was supposed to bring more income ( which I guess some JD gyms might need but not Preston) .
Office workers that prefer classes to doing it alone came in their lunch breaks We pay our monthly memberships like everyone else so why ruin it ?
BRING BACK DANNY
He knows his customers , listens to what they want , he had a great team of coaches who are moving on since he left , this particular gym was known for looking after all customers whether fat , thin , young old and people with disabilities.
The pencil pushers that change these rules need to get on the shop floor and see how it works for their customers and realise successful classes don’t need changing in every gym . A manager is in that position to make that happen ,but at the moment it seems they haven’t got the right to change what comes from Head office , hope this is sorted soon , regards Jo Reeder

Hi – Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, we really appreciate your feedback.
We understand how frustrating it can be when the gym feels too busy and the environment isn’t quite right for your workout. Our gyms are very popular and can get loud and busy during peak times, but this does tend to vary throughout the day.
Your feedback has been noted and will be passed on to the team as we’re always looking at ways to improve the experience for our members.
Thanks again for your comments.

I’m a JD gyms plus member as I travel a lot so I’ve been to quite a few but JD Preston has to be the worst along with JD Bury. The biggest issue isn’t how small the gym is but actually how stingy they are with the AirCon. In summer heat you’ll find it’s still cooler outside than it is in there 🤣

I never thought I would be one of those girls that loved the gym, but almost a year in to my journey Alex (my PT)and the rest of the staff have given me a new lease of life. Knowledgeable, approachable and happy to help with anything, I’ve never felt uncomfortable asking for their help. Equipment is clean and despite people not putting weights back correctly, staff are always quick to put them away. Shayla and Alex are doing a brilliant team in ensuring that JD runs as well as it does and that the facilities are suitable!

Inconsiderate members
Overall, my experience has been really good and I’ve enjoyed using the gym. However, recently I’ve noticed that some people haven’t been unloading weights or returning equipment after they finish.
For example, yesterday I saw a dumbbell left on the floor nowhere near the rack, and no one around to claim it. Situations like that can become a safety issue if someone trips over it.
I’d really appreciate it if the staff could keep an eye on this and remind members to return equipment and be considerate of others. The gym culture is usually great, but the 7–9 pm period has recently become quite messy because of this.
I hope a gentle reminder to members can help keep the space safe and enjoyable for everyone.
