MSC Performance Strength & Conditioning Gym.: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great strength training gym for people of all experience levels!
thank you Graeme! :)
Fantastic experience: It is the best gym that I have ever been. I was searching a gym like that for a while. I really like the atmosphere, the excellent team and the perfect programmes, especially the met con. The team is perfect always there to help and support us in our fitness journey. I highly recommend it!
Thank you so much for the lovely review Eva
Fantastic experience: Been using MSC for over a year and we love it Luke has been a fantastic coach teaching my daughter powerlifting techniques
Fantastic experience: Great gym, really good equipment and space. Everyone is really friendly, couldn’t recommend a gym in Birmingham more!
Thank you for the kind review Elinor :)
Fantastic experience: Truth about MSC Performance I've never been a gym goer, ever. I've tried and failed many times, but I've always felt daunted, with conflicting information online and a bit muddled and intimidated in person. MSC looks intimidating from the outside ...But it really, really isn't, even if you're a total beginner with zero experience since school PE (I can testify). Every workout has modifications. Focus is always on Progress NOT perfection here. The coaches care truly about your personal goals and have regular review sessions and check ins. You do not need to feel self conscious here. My sciatica feels better. My mental health has improved tenfold. My stiffness from sitting down at my day job is gone. The coaches are incredibly motivating and skilled at planning every session so the hassle and confusion is taken out of every workout. You just need to show up. And if you don't? Well, you'll be greeted warmly the next time you show up, and accountability is great because you form bonds with fellow members. Everyone genuinely cares. Booking sessions is intuitive and easy using an app. Expense wise, the more sessions you go to, the more value you get: but even twice a week you're making large strides for your cardio and strength goals. It's a small business and you're not another random number. Quite the opposite! During a really stressful period I've found this gym to focus my mind on what's important, keeping myself healthy. Even if I miss a week or so, MSC is always there to cheer me on when I get back! I can't thank every coach of MSC enough: they are brilliant. I also want to thank their members for always being so friendly and encouraging. After every session, you will be getting a high five or fist bump and applause from everyone. It's such a good vibe, can't rate highly enough. If you're reading this and undecided... Just go to a taster session. You won't regret it and will be hooked!
Thanks for such a lovely review Aaliyah! We love having you at MSC! You've made amazing progress so far and we can't wait to see how much further you go! Keep up the great work :)
Fantastic experience: MSC Performance is hands down the best gym I've ever been to. I was initially a bit apprehensive to join because I wasn't sure if I'd "fit in" but that misconception was dispelled right after my first class. The coaches and the members are so welcoming and a pleasure to be around. The actual facility is great and they have a wide range of equipment and machines. Since starting at MSC I genuinely haven't looked back. My only regret is not joining sooner!
Hi Bradley! Thank you so much for the review! I'm really glad you've been made to feel welcome and that you're enjoying your time here :)
Fantastic experience: Joining this gym has been the best decision I’ve made this year. MSC is a great gym if you’re serious about your fitness goals. The coaches are really helpful and the Metcon classes are brutal in the best way! I couldn’t recommend this place enough!
thanks for the review Pesala. You're doing amazingly well in the gym and it's a pleasure to have you as a member of the community :)
Fantastic experience: It's the best gym I've ever been a member of and I’ve been going consistently for 20 years. The team here are consistently energized, engaging and enthusiastic. Classes have a good range to stay interesting, the induction is very well thought out, equipment is well maintained, it's by far the tidiest gym I've been to, programs are easy to follow with great video demos and the coaching cleverly adapted to individuals, plus the chat is well responded to but the real stand out is the atmosphere is so friendly, which is not easy to create - culture eats strategy for breakfast and it's all there.
Hi Chris, really appreciate the review and we're so glad that you've settled in well and are already seeing some good progress. We also appreciate the feedback on our customer service, which is a huge deal for us!
Fantastic experience: I was gym-less for a while after an old place I loved closed its doors during the pandemic. Tried a few venues but no joy, and then like a long-lost friend I found MSC. Absolutely great gym, easy-going, nice sense of community, proper killer classes and great coaches and vibe. Plus they have lots of room for strongman carries and so on, which I love. Best gym in Brum in my opinion.
thanks for the review Richard! really glad you're enjoying training at MSC
Fantastic experience: After a period of abstinence due to ill health I returned to exercise with some trepidation. I needn’t have worried. The trainers are fantastic and were able to tailor my workouts to fit my needs. I am now stronger and healthier than ever before.
Thanks Steve! We are buzzing with your progress and long may it continue!
Fantastic experience: Whether you want a community or just really good gym…this has both! Great space and range of equipment! Great people and coaches!
Thanks for the review Sam! great to see the training going so well! keep up the good work
Fantastic experience: MSC has been a game changer for me. As a novice to strength training, I had always been reluctant to check it out as I thought it would have an intimidating vibe but I have quickly come to realise it is quite the opposite. This gym is different to every other gym I have been a member at because it is a really welcoming place with expert approachable coaches, friendly members, plenty of equipment and an excellent personal touch in terms being supported to reach your goals. When I first started in June 23, I did not know how to lift weights and was not confident with the majority of strength training exercises but I feel much better equipped now. I am enjoying the metcon classes at present and am pleased that my fitness is improving. I would highly recommend MSC! There are nice social events too!
thank you Yetunde. It's a pleasure to have you as a member of our community
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great coaches who are really helpful and knowledgeable. Everyone who goes there is really friendly, and it's a very civilised gym. People of all levels train there and look out for each other, and all weights and equipment is kept tidy and well organised. When I went there, I told them what my goals were and they created a bespoke training plan for me. I'd highly recommend
thanks for a great review Balal!!
Fantastic experience: Awesome Gym . Everyone's super nice. Including the members and staff!
thanks Tom!! glad you're enjoying training here
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym & Coaching team - Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Been with MSc for about 2 weeks now and feel much better than I have in a long time. The coaching I've received is second to none and the gym is very well equipped to suit a variety of training styles.
hey Kevin. thanks so much for the review! really glad you're enjoying your time at MSC so far, can't wait to see the progress you'll make with us :-)
Fantastic experience: WHAT. A. GYM. Can’t big MSC Performance up enough. The atmosphere, the members, the staff, the community, there is no other gym like it. Managed to make friends with members and staff, which in a gym I didn’t think possible. I can’t envision training at any other gym
Thanks James!! Thanks for being such a great member :-)
Fantastic experience: - Top end equipment that is regularly being updated - Welcoming atmosphere and great vibe, genuinely good people - Rarely wait for any equipment, if at all - Unique in that it caters to beginners just as well as it does to world class athletes like me
world class indeed sir. thank you for the lovely review x
Fantastic experience: Been training here for 2 weeks or so now. The best gym in Birmingham, one of the best in the UK. Been to a fair few gyms, but never have I felt at home like this one. I decided to change my training, and they set me up on a metcon class. The energy from the coaches reflects on the people who attend. It’s so inviting, people around to help push and make you feel welcome. The coaches are friendly, caring individuals who just want the best for you. I really recommend anyone, from beginner to “expert” to join. It’s the perfect place to begin, it’s the perfect place to expand. Thanks MSC
thanks will! glad you're enjoying the MSC experience!!
Fantastic experience: I’m not a gym kind of person. Don’t get me wrong- I do exercise, you’ll find me hiking and climbing on a weekly basis and do yoga but gyms always scared me and I don’t like the vibe. Until I’ve heard about the MSC. It offers all the right things. It’s a community, it’s fun and you get a lot of support. It’s miles from your regular mainstream gym, not only because of the superb classes and equipment that’s on offer but also because of the friendly approach and unique atmosphere. I wanted to push my fitness to the next level and I couldn’t have found a better place. I’m hooked! Special thanks to Kitti who onboarded me and made me feel super welcome. The photo: me and my bells
thank you Dominika! we're glad you're settling in nicely and can't wait to see the progress you make
Fantastic experience: I've been at MSC Performance since 2016 and it's an awesome facility that welcomes all levels of people from beginner all the way through to competing athletes. The staff and members are welcoming and there's a real community at the gym. If you're looking to get more out of your health & fitness I wouldn't think twice about joining this place!
Thanks Harry! One of the MSC O.G's!!
Fantastic experience: By far the best gym I’ve been to and when I mean best let’s say I’ve been to 10+ gyms and none of them match MSC. Great points about the gym * Clean literally when I mean clean it’s spotless * Great coaches who are friendly and will give any advice and help you out if they see you struggling * Friendly gym members * A wide range of equipment with multiple squat racks and benches So if you don’t join this gym your missing out honestly. Even if your a starter like me you won’t get judged you will be welcomed and taught all the right movements etc
Fantastic experience: I signed up for the 6-week introduction to Strength and Conditioning Course and if you're thinking about signing up but need more convincing, this is your sign! I never thought I'd lift heavy after a work-related incident 4yrs ago, but after my first week to the intro course, I stopped being scared of heavy bars, plates, dumbbells, and kettlebells. I left each session (whether it's Barbell Club or MetCon) with a sense of pride and accomplishment because I could see and feel my progress. The coaches are kind, approachable, and extremely professional. They motivate you when they know you can do better, and ensure that they are nearby to ensure you are safe. The gym members were very welcoming and embraced me in the community. Everybody is approachable and inspiring, and are happy to share techniques to improve your form or how to maximise your workouts. The gym also has friendly competitions and social events for the members that makes it really unique and special in my opinion. This is a nice and beginner-friendly gym well worth a 5-star rating.
thanks for the kind words Ria. Youre doing so well and we are so glad you're enjoying your time at MSC :-)
Fantastic experience: Quality gym! The coached sessions with kitti are great and the sessions without are all good too; never waiting around for equipment or anything, and people are generally friendly Night and day vs my old gym
thanks Dean! super excited to see your progress over the coming months!
Fantastic experience: Loved their classes and the staff. All super knowledgeable and attentive.
Fantastic experience: We loved this place .. it's a shame we had to quit early!
Fantastic experience: I joined MSC whilst I was studying in Birmingham and what a place. I was instantly made to feel welcome by the staff and other members. I mainly took part in the metcon classes and was also part of two metcon competitions held - which were so much fun!! Metcon is a great way to get fit and work hard, with great motivation from the trainers and others training with you. Even though I have now unfortunately left due to finishing uni and moving away, I have made friends for life and it will always be a place ill remember and go back to say hi if I'm back in the Birmingham area ❤
Fantastic experience: After looking at the photos and reading the reviews, I am super excited to join this gym soon
Fantastic experience: Great place, amazing staff, incredible equipment! Couldn’t recommend more. Perfect for anyone who wants a friendly gym to start powerlifting or strength training! Great knowledgeable coaches, who will help you out if you’re stuck or need any advice! Spacious enough to lift “distanced”. Overall a great gym, I love it here, wouldn’t change it for the world. Could not recommend more to anyone!! My powerlifting journey really began here and I’ve made so many strength gains, friends and memories since !
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of MSC Performance for around 6 months and it’s been the best decision I’ve made in terms of my health and fitness. The facility is by far the best in Birmingham. The investment in equipment to allow a whole host of training options is brilliant. All of the staff are extremely approachable and knowledgable. Always on hand and willing to offer a little advice on your lifts or a conditioning exercise to help progress your training. MSC also offers a number of class training option every day. I haven’t got involved in these yet, but I’m looking forward to. In my experience a very friendly, community feel that is purely there to make you better.
Fantastic experience: I joined MSC soon after the last lockdown earlier this year. I had been struggling to find the motivation to train and be more active for the last few years. I joined many gyms but none of them seemed to be working for me. I feel so lucky I found MSC, a top class gym that has, by far, exceeded all my expectations! All the coaches are amazing professionals and extremely supportive. They motivate you and push you to achieve results I never thought I was capable of - never in my life I thought I'd be able to squat, deadlift or even finish a met con session! The other members have also been extremely welcoming and helpful! The training atmosphere is always great and enjoyable! MSC has that sense of community that you won't find everywhere!! I'd recommend everyone to give their Barbell Club or their Met-Con sessions a go! Can't recommend MSC enough! Looking forward to see what's next and to keep improving every week!
Fantastic experience: Joined the barbell program for a year before moving away and there's nothing like this gym! Evolutionary. If you want to get into weight lifting and don't know where to start and want to be part of a community of people who love weight lifting too, join barbell! Also, the coaches are ace! So in addition, if you've struggled with back pain/posture, I would recommend joining the barbell program for monitoring and tips and great coaching!
Fantastic experience: Best for powerlifting
Fantastic experience: Good gym and Josh is a great guy.
Fantastic experience: I came to MSC experiencing hip pain. I got in contact with Max regarding physiotherapy, from the very first session he was able to give me exercises to do that would help restore some mobility back to my hip. Over a year later, my hip is better than ever. Max is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get the most of their training.
Fantastic experience: Come here if you're serious about working out. Brilliant place. Amazing staff. Great people all round. And the best facilities for proper training. But if you want to be warm, work. It's not for wimps.

Fantastic experience: Defo the best gym in town. Great equipment and coaches.
Fantastic experience: Great gym and equipment Good atmosphere for weight lifting Not the type of place to go for treadmills
Fantastic experience: Best gym in birmingham period. Best equipment , best coaches , best members.
Fantastic experience: Great facility with friendly knowledgable and dedicated coaches. All round great environment to train in.
Fantastic experience: What a gym with skilled staff+++++ strong man training, power lifting, friendly atmosphere with advice
Fantastic experience: This is definitely the best of a number of gyms I've seen across different countries. The staff is knowledgeable and willing to help, their classes are serious training sessions and most of all the overall approach is scientific.
Fantastic experience: Simply cannot recommend MSC enough. The equipment is incredible, but it's the staff that makes it. Everyone is extremely helpful and knowledgable and you can tell they love what they do. I've been training here for around 4 months now and it's honestly the best decision I've ever made.
Fantastic experience: A great gym that has built a fantastic member-based atmosphere. The staff are knowledgeable, approachable and friendly, and there's something for everyone.
Fantastic experience: I hate it and I love it at the same time. It took my one glance to decide it is my gym. Why do I love it? I really like the music, and the fact it looks a little bit like an 'underground' gym. It is a perfect place if you are dedicated to work hard - no redundant equipment. Coaches with the outstanding knowledge, experience, and skills, but what is more important - they exactly know how to instruct others. They also present very positive attitude. It is worth mentioning - they are not afraid of feedbacks. They are not sitting and celebrating what they already achieved in this place, they aim higher every day. Team members in the gym are also friendly, and atmosphere is just great. I enjoy being there. What do I hate? There is only one MSC and other gyms are far behind.
Fantastic experience: I love training here! The coaches have good training philosophies and are genuinely interested in their members reaching their goals. The investment in equipment is exceptional, however, i'd expect that from a gym that prides itself on being a true 'strength and conditioning' facility. Therefore, here you have a a whole host of training options, which is nothing short of brilliant. The best part really is that the gym is friendly and has that community feel. Couldn't ask for a better place to train.
Fantastic experience: Great facility, such a friendly atmosphere with helpful, knowledgeable coaches and excellent equipment. Some amazing athletes too! Everyone is made welcome and supported regardless of ability. Made my move from London so much better, they've created a great community spirit.
Fantastic experience: This is got to be one of the best gyms in the country by far! Not only is the equipment amazing, but the coaches and staff really know their stuff and are always there to help. The atmosphere that has been created there is the best! Everyone is friendly and supportive! I have been here a year this month and I won't go anywhere else now. I've improved in so many areas and I know there's so much more to come :D
Fantastic experience: Friendly, spacious gym catering expertly to the powerlifting, strongman and Olympic lifting crowd. Highly recomended
