JD Gyms Blackpool

A fantastic gym with brilliant staff A big thankyou to Josh . Pippa. . Megan. Hannah And the rest of the JD team For restoring my confidence After a 40 year break from attending a gym Looking forward to attending more of the free classes.

Absolutely great place, I love it ! Clean and fresh. We went on Sunday with my hubby together and had great sessions the staff member was so polite and helpful to us and allowed guests access. I have never ask for guests pass before. We really appreciate it.

Loved my week here in Blackpool. Excellent staff and great equipment. Pip was great and helped me so much here. Personal favourite piece of equipment is the incline chest

Probably the most unfriendliest gym I've ever been to in terms of the staff and male members who granted not all, but some ruin it for the majority. I've had a young female member of staff walk in front of me interrupting a work out when I was stood facing the wall so no reason for doing that and when I looked up she was glaring at me. Now some of the male members that go there are just something else. Every time whether I'm on a machine or walking to another one I'm watched like a hawk, it's disturbing. I constantly feel on edge and have several times caught a male member staring at me in an inappropriate manner whilst doing an exercise like the back extensions or leg press making me feel unsafe. Several of them are also extremely entitled. I've had men constantly interrupt my workouts and I've had to ask them to move which I shouldn't have to do. It's basic gym etiquette which they have no issue doing for other men? I've had a man force himself through the gates as he watched me type my code in when there were two others he could have used to scan his phone,and today I had a young man stand behind me at the seated rows facing the walls when there was no reason for him to be in that tiny space behind me and the wall, breathing down my neck that I had to ask my partner to come over and put space between me and this weirdo which scared him off. I've never ever had these issues in a gym before. It's majority men who go here and it's evident. It's absolutely not acceptable behavior to make a woman so uncomfortable in the gym when I pay the same membership fee as any male member in there does. The only reason I go to this gym is because it's the closest one but I will never go there alone after these things I have to put up with which isn't right. I should feel safe in this gym. I would not say this was a woman friendly gym if you're alone and I would not recommend it.

Started with you a week ago, had my induction with Josh (Duty Manager) who was great and showed me everything I needed to know. He was really helpful and very encouraging. The gym itself is spotless and the machines are amazing. The rest of the staff here are so helpful as well. Thanks Josh 👍🏻
