Grnbox gym: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Grnbox offers a fantastic variety of equipment to suit all workout preferences. The coaches and members make it a welcoming environment. Alex and Ali are always ready to assist. A great choice for those looking to achieve their fitness goals.
Fantastic experience: I had previously joined gyms and lacked motivation and any consistency, resulting in no or little progress. Then I discovered GRN Box ! what a difference with Ally and Alex providing excellent coaching in a welcoming, friendly and professional manner. The easy to follow training app allows a consistent programme to be followed, with Ally and Alex always at hand to provide feedback and advice. 100% encourage anyone looking for a top class gym to give GRN Box a try.
Thank you Keith
Fantastic experience: Really great gym, smart concept of offering tailored coaching without the one to one element (or prices) I really like the new membership deal too. The new opening times will definitely make it more easier for me and other members. I’ve worked with Alex online 4 months prior and I as really surprised at the huge difference I saw in my strength and ability to perform exercises (pull Ups??) just from small adjustments each time. Really excited to see the progress now I am able to come in face to face. Friendly atmosphere and also really nice to see it has a big mix of other females, creates a comfortable atmosphere ☺️
Fantastic experience: After years of trying all the usual gyms and finding myself with no idea what to do. Resulting in me aimlessly trying a few different machines I finally joined grnbox and I have never looked back! Tailored plans and unlimited support by some of the best PTs I’ve come across! Friendly gym, doesn’t matter what mood you go in with, you’ll leave feeling so much better! Both owners have gone over & above in helping me, in different ways; Alex provides incredible programming and has helped me build so much strength and answers my endless questions and is always pushing me to do my best. Ali and his love for learning helped me with a PCOS diagnosis and taught me about nutrition and how to regulate my body. I’ve never come across a gym like it and pretty confident I never will again!
Fantastic experience: Best gym about there is all ways someone on hand to help during your workout if unsure what to do
Negative experience: Seems like the gym only plays nice when you are a current member (at a VERY hefty price tag none the less). The owner is incredibly unprofessional in how he communicates and treats members. He has cancelled a number of memberships because people went to other gyms even just for a class with friends without even speaking to the members first. When considering starting a fitness journey a safe space is incredibly important which is why I feel it necessary to share how people have been treated here. I'd give it 0 stars if I could. Update: I am a real person, the gym has not attempted to make contact with me despite saying so below. When I was looking at gyms in Midlothian I asked friends in the area about their experiences at GrnBox this is what they shared. From multiple sources
Hi Sydney - appreciate your review. I would try to make contact but this appears to be a fake account. If you give me a way to contact you, I’m more than happy to contact you? [email protected] id love for you to drop me an email, and be happy to offer you a free trial so you could come to your own conclusion about me / Grnbox? We’re always working very hard to provide an excellent training space at affordable price. Sorry it wasn’t for your friends. Hopefully you find a gym that gives you what you need! Be that us or elsewhere! Also, it’s a shame you’ve felt the need to wait this long to leave your review considering the changes your referencing were well over a year ago at the time of writing this, however there’s defo some, not much but some truth in what your saying. What I would say tho, I don’t think it’s a lack of professionalism but more a lack of experience to be honest. With heinsight would I try to make better decisions? Of course. Unfortunately at that time tho I was just making the best call with the experience and info I had at the time. Anyway Hopefully you find a gym that gives you what you need! Be that us or elsewhere! & I wish you all the best. Thanks again for the review, it helps us evolve and provide a better service which is always appreciated!
Fantastic experience: I've been coming to this gym for nearly 2 years and I wouldn't look back, the PT's are extremely knowledgeable, supportive and encouraging throughout your journey both training and nutrition wise, they are always on hand to help whenever you need it. From someone who went through many different diet cultures, this gym has completely changed my mindset and training, I couldn't be happier with it and I'm excited to see what the rest of the year brings.
Fantastic experience: Grnbox is without a doubt the most supportive gym I think you’ll find in Scotland! Ali, Vee and Ben are extremely knowledgeable and provide you with all the tools you need to succeed. The gym is never over crowded and there is always one of the PT’s kicking about to keep you right. Such a friendly environment. Well done Grnbox your certainly doing a lot right!
Negative experience: Highly disappointing. Think green box should help everyone around Edinburgh not just people Midlothian I don’t think it’s right that the exception people in a raid us, it’s not it’s not right Gym you have to accept anyone highly disappointing.
Really gutted about this review to be honest, we pride ourselves on this review. We are a local PT business based in Midlothian, we simply can’t serve everyone and we have a maximum capacity. We are very clear that the call is a chance to get to know each other, and decide if it’s a good fit. In my experience, someone having to travel 60mins to get to the gym won’t be a good fit, and I felt it’s better to be honest. I also gave you several better options on your doorstep. It’s also not up to you who we decide to accept or not, it’s our business and we pride ourselves on taking in good people we know we can help not just anyone. Thanks again for booking a call and I hope you check out one of the locations i reccomended.
Fantastic experience: Recommended! Knowledgeable and approachable coaches who invest in their gym and their members. Top tier training plans are tailored to the individual with expert nutritional support and advice. The booking app and training app are user friendly and easy to use. There is also a real sense of a wee community at GRNbox which is not something I've come across in other places.
Fantastic experience: Best around and I would recommend anyone who is wanting to get into the best shape of there life to join Grnbox
Fantastic experience: Joining was made very easy with help of Ali, V and Ben. Lovely clean gym, plenty of equipment, never a wait to use anything. The coaches give you all the information and help you need to complete your work outs with confidence. They push you to do your best and get great results from their members. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic trainers keep you motivated while you exercise at your own pace but always on hand to offer support and guidance I totally recommend GRNBOX PT
Thanks lee glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic experience: Afit if a game changer. The attention to detail and motivation from the coaches is like nothing I’ve seen in any other gym. They are constantly updating their model to give the members the best experience. By far the best gym environment I’ve experienced.
Hi Khaliegh, Thanks for the 5-star review, much appreciated!
Fantastic experience: Joined A-Fit earlier in the year after years of going back and forth for stints at your regular gyms (Puregym , TheGym) . To compare those gyms to A-Fit is like chalk and cheese. From the very beginning you are made to feel welcome in the gym and the coaching is second to none. Regardless of your prior ability the coaches will they work with you to ensure you are getting the best outcome you can achieve. - custom programmes to track progression - 1-2-1 feedback at any time on form - community feel Couldn’t recommend enough ⭐️
Greg, Thanks for the amazing review, we're glad you're loving your time in the gym and look forward to what 2022 holds for your health and fitness!
Fantastic experience: Believe the hype! This really isn't your average gym. After being a member of the typical cheap pay monthly gym's, I was skeptical about paying more for a gym I'd never heard of. I've been a member nearly 2 months now and I'm loving it. Super friendly staff that go out their way to help and ensure you're hitting your goals, and top equipment to help you get the work done!
Kelvin, Thanks for the 5-star review, we're excited to see what 2022 holds for your health and fitness! Love how you highlighted how friendly our staff are, greatly appreciated!
Fantastic experience: The Best Gym Around! Friendly, Helpful Staff, always a fun atmosphere too, I actually look forward to going to classes
Thank you Erin!
Fantastic experience: A-fit Athletic is by far the best gym I have stepped foot in. The atmosphere makes the place it is so welcoming and that is due to how accommodating, down to earth and professional all the coaches are. I would highly recommend anyone of any fitness level or background to join. You will not regret it. I thought for years I didn't need a personal trainer as I felt quite skilled overall having been involved in sport my whole life. Little did I know because since joining A-fit I have learnt so much and have now started to trust my body again and not thinking it will break down as it has in the past and that is all down to the knowledge and support from each coach at A-fit. I think everyone at some point in life should get a PT. At A-fit you are lucky to be able to call upon various coaches at any given time and there is not one area of heath and fitness that one of the coaching team will not be able to help and support you through.
Thanks mate!
Fantastic experience: Really welcoming environment with coaches who are not only so knowledgeable, but also really care about you and your progress. The people’s gym!
Thank you Erin!
Fantastic experience: A fit is a fantastic gym! Best one I have been to! Very professional and so friendly! The team are great and make you feel so welcome. Always enjoy my time in the gym and feel very comfortable around everyone.
Thanks Chloe
Fantastic experience: All the team here really know there stuff and make it a great environment to be in!
Cheers Robbo
Fantastic experience: The first time I signed up for a class I was so nervous to come I nearly didn’t (but I received an email encouraging me to come) and then when I came in and Chelsea was there waiting and took me to where I needed to be and really made sure I understand and didn’t leave me until I did.. THEN my 2nd time tonight I was even more nervous but she honestly made everything so easy and constantly made sure I was ok throughout the class!! I was so scared to be the ‘fat unfit one’ but honestly no one cares and are too busy working on themselves, and for the first time I didn’t even feel embarrassed when I had to stop and take a minute ( or five) I’m so glad I hit the bullet and joined I actually look forward to coming now & would recommend it to anyone
Flying now! Thanks Naomi
Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility, with state of the art equipment. Coaches have the best knowledge about all aspects training, nutrition, health and wellbeing. They are very friendly, welcoming and professional. What i personally like is that everyone is treated as an individual in terms of what step of the journey they are at and there is never a silly question to be asked. If you are on the edge, id say go for it :)
Thanks Lynne!
Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve been to! So much encouragement and motivation from all coaches! Never felt so confident going to a gym than I have A-fit! Everyone is so friendly and makes going to the gym enjoyable! Grateful for A-fit!
Fantastic experience: Professional and friendly service
Fantastic experience: A fit athletic is without a doubt the best gym I have ever been been too. Ali, Alex and the team go above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable at the classes and ensure you are performing all exercises correctly without injury. They are very professional and patient. They are very motivating and have helped me achieve all my goals for 2020. Can’t wait to see what 2021 brings!
Fantastic experience: Amazing place amazing people actually look forward to going to the gym when I go here!!
Fantastic experience: 2nd to none for knowledge and a great atmosphere, hands down the best gym in Midlothian
Fantastic experience: Ali, Alex and the rest of their team really know their stuff. Their dedication to making A-Fit the best gym around is inspiring. I’ll be back!
Fantastic experience: Incredible training facility with top of the range equipment and the most knowledgable and helpful coaches you will find in Scotland. Zero waiting on machines with the professionally coached sessions so I get more out of every session than in any commercial gym. Great friendly and fun atmosphere made by the coaches and members!
