PureGym Canterbury Wincheap

Started here about a month ago. they have a vast range of machines and free weights to complete every workout as well as the staff being very friends. there are also stations to clean the benches down to make it a lot clean for the person after you. the only thing is it you go between 5-8pm it is a very busy, although the gym is of medium size many of the machines are crowded and there's a lot of waiting. i much prefer to go in the morning around 7am as there are a lot less people and generally you don't have to wait for benches or machines. overall this is a very good and comfortable gym.

Friendly atmosphere and very accessible for what equipment you wish to use. can get a little crowded at times, but i tend to visit around 5 am...excellent! i first posted this about 10 or 12 months ago and it still applies today...a great place to exercise.

Does what it needs to without bells and whistles. you get what you pay for. maintenance and cleaning could be improved. the recent sighting of black mould around the shower vent was a little concerning and the caretaker guy didn't seem to grasp the severity of this. pts do tend to leave you alone and you're not ambushed with sale pitches every five minutes like in some gyms. classes are frequent and well delivered.

Puregym canterbury riverside is next to pets at home on the riverside retail park, which borders the a2 and a28 to the south-west of the city centre. opportunities: free parking (parking restrictions may apply, see below for details) no contract free wi-fi olympic weightlifting platform functional rig plate loaded kit available fully air conditioned for your comfort changing rooms with showers free initial exercise induction personal trainers available bring a friend 4 times a month book classes 14 days in advance freeze at no extra cost lots of great equipment multi gym access.

The equipment is in pretty good order and quite clean but the changing room could do with more attention at times, i avoid using them now and go home to change instead. often seems to have popular classes going on with enthusiastic coaches. good value for money. the entrance could be better, it seems quite a few people come in for free.
