Fantastic experience: Joined this gym as I was on holiday and really impressed! Very friendly, helped me with machines, good equipment, based in town centre. Joined for 2 weeks and much better than other gyms nearby as they are always staffed during daylight hours which I like. Will definitely join here again when I'm down in October

Fantastic experience: Friendly and accessible gym in an ideal location. Student membership deals and 24/7 access make this gym very good value for money. Given its size, OJ holds an impressive range of equipment that has consistently been improved, as demonstrated by the recent purchase of two new squat racks, multiple treadmills and bikes, a Stairmaster, and second rowing and cable machines. On top of this, the gym is clean and well-maintained and I rarely have to wait for equipment. Cardio machines are always available. During manned hours, staff are friendly, approachable and are always on-hand to give advice or to help set up equipment. Members are equally polite, tidy and respectful; I have always felt safe. The OJ team also host fun monthly challenges which are open to all to participate in. I have no personal experience with PT/coaching or with the frequent classes hosted at the OJ Box but have heard overwhelmingly positive things. OJ is hard to fault but would be even better if they bought a plyometric jump box.

Hayden Hall 1 year ago

Positive experience: Extremely affordable, moderate equipment, good staff, good location.

Kellie Worlin 1 year ago

Positive experience: Love the location and equipment but I have found in the last few weeks of going to the gym that is it full on very young teens/kids which I don’t have an issue with but when they are sitting on the machines talking and not using them for over 15 minutes or they are messing around, kicking each other and winding each other up is ridiculous. Really puts the place down.

Mikus Rutkovskis 1 year ago

Positive experience: Nice little gym. When busy can be tricky to get on equipment you need.

James Sellick 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been wanting to join a gym for a while but didn't know where to start. I came across the Sidmouth Oliver James and decided to message via Facebook to find out a little bit more about it.They suggested I popped in. As I walked in I met Tim on the counter. He was very welcoming and was happy to answer any questions. During the personal training Tim came up with some great ideas. I couldn't be happier with the service I received. Tim researched different areas for me and designed a fitness plan around my needs and any injuries that I have. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him, he has quite a laid back but professional approach to his work, which I found perfect for the way I needed it to be.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic new gym in Honiton! Love the Sidmouth gym too. I’m so happy to have them here. I honestly wouldn’t be working out as much if it weren’t for this gym. Great value for money, great location, knowledgeable, friendly staff, there’s a huge variety of equipment spread over two floors, good spaces to workout in, good music to workout to, it’s got a unique feel about it which I like a lot and I look forward to getting in there and having a good session, thanks for being here!

Ian Carr 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I arrived in Sidmouth recently in poor health, both physically and emotionally. I joined the gym and booked a personal training programme with Lauren. Best thing I’ve done in years. I’ve used trainers in the past but Lauren is by far the best. Non judgemental, friendly, but at the same time highly motivating. She is really helping me turn things around. She knows my goals and I know with her help I am going to achieve them

Fantastic experience: Personal Training at Oliver Joseph: Having turned 38 and reflecting on the last year I decided that I wanted to invest in my own health. I had just moved to the area I saw that Oliver Joseph had set up a new gym in Sidmouth so I got in touch with Lauren who is the manager there. As somebody new to the gym environment I had a thorough introduction to the gym and the different types/styles of training. Following a review of my goals, lifestyle and work/life commitments I decided to sign up for an 8 week course of personal PT training. Without doubt it’s been one of the best investments I've made. Having completed an 8 week programme with Lauren I’ve seen a dramatic improvement in my strength & fitness whilst also shedding just under a stone in weight. A key aspect of the programme was reviewing my nutrition and diet and setting a realistic framework meaning I could still enjoy what I eat without compromising my training. I've been so happy with the results so far that I’ve booked another set of sessions to build on the progress I’ve made and have, with Laurens’s help, set a new set of goals to work towards. So if you're unsure about the gym or what PT sessions consist of I would thoroughly recommend getting in touch and seeing how the gym or a tailored training programme may suit you. It has been hard work, but the results are worth the effort!
