Fantastic experience: Amazing gym lovely staff l

Negative experience: Today, I have received a threatening email regarding an overdue account saying they will pass my details to a debt recovery agency. I had emailed written notice to them on the 19th January ending my membership and paid in Feb. Therefore, the one months notice was honoured. I have now sent this over twice to confirming this is the case when they have been chasing for payment and received no response. As well as this, I have asked them to remove my details from their systems. As such, with receiving no response, I have had to resort to leaving this in the reviews section. More as a friendly warning to anyone wishing to walk away from a membership with this business. Should a debt collection agency be in touch, I will take this further.

Positive experience: Its a good gym with great potential. For 90% of people it will have everything you'll ever need and some things you dont even know what they are lol. If your a pretty serious lifter, strongman, or powerlifter then this place is geared towards you, unlike most places, and has some nice touches like great deadlift bars, buffalo bar, safety squat bar, football bar, competition benches, sleds, yokes, farmers walk and all sorts of things that aren't the norm. The one thing it lets itself down on is actual weight plates. There just aren't enough of them realistically. You will be able to walk around and grab enough plates here and there for the 200kg+ lifts but there just isnt enough plates on machines or at each squat, deadlift, bench station. If they invested in maybe 1000kg of steel 25's, 20's etc then i think this place could be perfect for the pretty serious lifter Good job guys.

Fantastic experience: Been going to this gym now for almost a year now, staff are polite and very helpful if you need a spotter or information regarding the equipment. My training routine is powerlifting based and there is more than enough plates to cover my 230kg deadlifting. The range of equipment is great as you can hit all the muscle groups and the classes are intense in all the best ways.

Positive experience: No good for powerlifting anymore, the platforms are so thin you might as well be pulling straight off the concrete. 1 good bar & only 4 pairs of reds. Machine selection is decent but would be lacking plates if more than a few decently strong folk turned up.

Fantastic experience: I joined the gym in January as part of the transform 10 week programme and have been going to the gym at least 4 times a week ever since on the Ultra programme. I’ve lost so many inches, 3 stone and got so much fitter all thanks to Rob and Lana. The gym is such a good and friendly environment and you really do get to know everyone. They also sell all products you could possible need for your goals at a reasonable price. Thanks for being the best guys !!! Xx

Fantastic experience: Great amount of machines

Fantastic experience: Great gym really got me fit and had everything needed for a perfect workout

Fantastic experience: I joined my first transform course 5 weeks ago, I haven’t worked out for a couple of years, and I jumped straight into this, and loved every minute of it, there’s absolutely no feelings of intimidation, everyone’s relaxed, and it’s fun! If you don’t know how to do something, you get the help you need, and same with injuries, you get other ways to do things.. I’ve now booked onto the next course, and cant wait to back at it after Xmas :). ADDING TO THIS REVIEW… I’ve now been coming here for 6 months, I go everyday, ive lost a lot of weight, toned up, and also got great advise from Rob to help along side my physio to strengthen and help a problem with my back… I’ve also made a great group of friends :) fully recommend.

Fantastic experience: Perfect during day not too busy, how I like it, plenty machines to go at for the serious body builder

Fantastic experience: Had a great time at Ironside. Owner is knowledgeable and is clean with good equipment.

Fantastic experience: Top class gym, everything you need, weights, power lifting, strong man, fitness area, CrossFit area. I lost 1 1/2 stone in 10 weeks on the transform classes. Proper gym

Fantastic experience: Great gym with the best atmosphere. Started on my own which was a massive thing for me with my confidence but I was instantly made the feel really welcome. The Transform course really pushes your fitness to the next level all while having a laugh. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: Joined Ironside in July as part of a 10 week transform course and I’ve never left! Lana & Rob are great, classes are so much fun & the group of friends I’ve created from this are just amazing! My fave place to go at 6am would def’ recommend to people even just starting out as advice given is on point never a dull moment

Fantastic experience: Great facilities. Great atmosphere and excellent staff/coaches. Transform class is fantastic if your not a regular gym user but want to get fit.

Fantastic experience: A great gym lots great equipment with a friendly atmosphere

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic warm and friendly family style gym not too busy and I was pleased to not be the only big guy in there felt at home and will definitely be going again, my only criticism is parking is poor but that won't change my score.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! I've been a member of many gyms over the years up and down the country but I've never been to one quite like Ironside Fitness. The Transform classes are really good value and the progress I've made not only physically but mentally (getting up, feeling more awake and being consist with it) are priceless. Last thing to point out is the amount of equipment the gym has, my legs have been destroyed on machines I've never seen in my life!

Fantastic experience: A gym and owners who have genuinely had a huge impact on my life. The gym has the equipment to rival any gym, no matter what your goals. The difference in this gym for me personally is the people and the nature of the programs they run. In the last 2 years the Ironside Transform program has really improved both my physical and mental health and the support from the team is second to none. It's now a gym that I can visit to see friends, not just to work out.

Fantastic experience: This is an amazing gym run by amazing people. I have worked with every PT either as part of a class, a small group PT or a one to one session and in every single session I have been challenged and supported leaving me encouraged to keep going - and I have - for over 2 years. If you have tried dozens of gyms and given up, give Ironside a go; try Transform - it is life changing.

Fantastic experience: After a 2 year break from the gym due to becoming a mum and the pandemic, I was nervous to even step foot in a gym again. I stumbled across Ironside, more specifically Transform at Ironside on Instagram and knew it was just what I was looking for. I was a little nervous the first session but immediately loved it. The PT’s here push you to get the absolute best out of yourself, they’re friendly and supportive yet absolute sadists when it comes to beasting us all every workout. I love every single session of Transform and everybody else in the classes. Thank you Ironside for reigniting the fire in my belly for training, I’m forever grateful.

Fantastic experience: The transform course is absolutely life changing, amazing PTs who cater to each individuals needs with the best support to push you on along the way! It really has changed my whole outlook of training, eating & everything else in between! Love the place!

Fantastic experience: Myself and my friend was very lucky to win our first transform in a competition. This completely changed our lives for the best. The first day we went we was welcomed with opened arms and the PTS couldn't be more supportive. As the weeks went on I became fitter and stronger. I was instantly hooked and signed up for my next 10 weeks straight away. I'm now on week 17 and my results are just unreal! Lana,Rob,Richie and Rae are all just the most best and supportive pts ever! They never let anything beat you and push you to work hard and it does pay off! If you want to change your life for the better ironside is the place to be and I can't thank them enough for what they have done for me!

Fantastic experience: My first time at the gym Lana and Rob very welcoming , went through my goals and what my handicap was (dodgy hip) worked out a routine which was best for me . I feel great inches gone Then we have Richie who definitely pushes us to achieve .Well Done Ironside Transform/ Fitness .

Fantastic experience: Been doing the Transform course for almost 15 weeks and it has been amazing the changes I’ve seen come from it! Lost weight, gained strength and confidence, and had fun too. I’ve lost over 25lbs, and look forward to going to class and working out, even though it’s really tough (in a good way)! Couldn’t recommend the course and gym to others enough, 5/5 for sure.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and highly recommend the Transform classes. This gym cares and has such a good feeling about it. No matter what your goals are, whether you are a beginner or an expert, or recovering from injury the gym and team are supportive and will motivate you to achieve your goals. Rob Lana and Richie really enthuse members and always provide new and innovative workouts to suit your needs and goals. Big gyms can be intimidating but not this one, I promise you will soon feel at home. The range of equipment, cleanliness, individual care and customer service here I’ve never seen at the large chain gyms. I am so glad I joined.

Fantastic experience: I joined Transform almost 8 weeks ago now and I’m so glad I did. I was nervous to join as a total beginner but the PTs have been so friendly and supportive throughout! Every session is different yet challenging. All the workouts can be tailored to your abilities so you can get the best out of each one, no matter what your fitness level. Can’t thank the Transform team enough, would definitely recommend Ironside!

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym 11 months ago as an older larger lady who had been practically dragged there by my daughter and the reason for writing this now is exactly because it’s been 11 months and I’m still attending. I can’t recommend this place and the people enough. There is something for everyone from the newest of newbies to right through to professionals. Rob Lana and Rae are amazing instructors and push you to get the very best from yourself. From the huge range of classes, the Transform courses, the cardio room, spin room and fully stocked gym you can’t go wrong. Never any judgment just encouragement and the warmest of welcomes. And with the cost of living biting I promise you won’t get better value or reward from spending less than a pound a day on your membership. If you are thinking about joining anywhere get down and see them. Best decision you’ll make about your fitness and health.
