Thanks Andy, it'll be lovely to see you back again. Hope you're well and thank you so much for the review.
Fantastic experience: My partner and I joined Ripped Harlow this November having moved house and being too far from our previous gym. We trialled Ripped for a month, along with testing a couple of other gyms and Ripped was the obvious choice for us, even though it's a 20-30min drive each way from our house. What a fantastic gym! Amazing range of high quality machines, spotlessly clean (even the toilets!), friendly staff, and a great atmosphere to train in. Love the fact the gym has a strong focus on mental health- a real rarity in the industry and sets them apart. Highly recommended and feel privileged to be able to work out here.
Hi Nat, thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We're delighted you are enjoying the facilities. Welcome to Team Ripped.

Hi Carlos. Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. We're over the moon you're enjoying the gym. Thanks again. Team Ripped
Fantastic experience: Very good well rounded gym, has everything that you would ever need and more, friendly staff and friendly trainers that will always help out if you need it, very big range of equipment so you can target everything imaginable in a way that you want to, amazing atmosphere with the loud music that make headphones not a necessary thing like they sometimes are in other gyms, 5/5 stars would advise anyone to come here if you are serious about the gym and your training.
Hi Vladimirs, thank you for taking the time to review the gym. We're delighted you're enjoying it. Team Ripped
Fantastic experience: I have been training at Ripped Gym for just over two months now and I cannot recommend this place enough. The staff are friendly and always accommodating. Even more impressive is that I raised an issue about the chains been broken on the heavy bag and a week later 3 new bags appeared including a Muy Thai bag. I asked for the chains to be repaired and got a boxing section. Thank you to the Ripped Gym team for caring more about their members and less about the bottom line. Great Atmosphere, even better place to train. - Sheldon DNA
Hi. Thank you so much for your glowing review. I'll pass this onto the team.
Fantastic experience: Ripped Gym is the best gym around in the local area 100%. I used to train at local gym in Hoddesdon and then visit Ripped Gym on the weekends. I switched permanently to ripped gym 2 years ago since then I have enjoyed my training so much more and I have really made a lot of progress. I enjoy coming to Ripped because of the friendly atmosphere and everyone here staff + guests included are always very welcoming and are more than happy to help with anything. It really is an awesome place to train, you actually feel inspired + motivated when training in Ripped. Definitely the best decision I made when it came to training. Pop in and check it out for a day session see for yourself. The sound system is awesome and the music they play always gets you in the zone also. Perfect gym for people of all abilities. 10/10 Gym would definitely recommend to anyone !

Fantastic experience: Ripped gym is one of the best strength training gyms that I have visited,, working out at ripped gym feels empowering because of its equipment, environment and culture, everyone is super friendly and provide you with your personal space and support. It has a great music system and clean changing facilities !!️♀️️♂️ One of the most outstanding features that attract me apart from the equipment, is the variety of delicious protein shakes and food that is always available
Hi Arnold. Thank you for your review. We delighted you're enjoying the gym
Positive experience: Went to have a look around the gym. Very impressed with the amount of equipment available, plus the crazy range of dumbbells (2.5kg up to 120kg). These will only be used by the strongest of trainers I.e Ronnie Coleman in his prime. Perfect gym for those interested in bodybuilding seriously.

Hi Steve, thank you for your review and kind words. I'll pass your comments onto the staff.
Fantastic experience: I live quite far away so use Ripped Gym when I am over there working. Honestly I wish I lived nearer. It is a brilliant gym with excellent knowledgable staff. I always have a great time in there and usually end up walking away after learning something new. Excellent gym and great staff who make everyone feel welcome.
Hi David. Thank you for your review, we at delighted you enjoy the facilities.
Negative experience: Disgusting self centred owner who only cares about herself and the money she can make. Rude and combative owner that believes she knows better than everyone else, would love to see her real qualifications not sports diplomas . Claims to care about others as the reason she opened her gym in lockdown yet I bet she still charged. I have been to the gym
This review is not about the gym or its facilties. The owner kept the gym open on the second lockdown as 2 members had committed suicide in the first lockdown. The gym remained open for 6 hours before closing. The owner was arrested and the case is now closed.(this was thirteen months ago Nov 2020). This is person has never been to the gym. There is no record of this person ever attending. Gym owners don't need PT qualifications, they are gym owners not personal trainers.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in harlow financially and vua the equipment
Hi, thank you so much for your review. Look forward to seeing you again

Hi Steve, thank you for your review. We are delighted you enjoy the facilities.
Fantastic experience: Best gym I have been member of, great atmosphere, great equipment, always quick to deal with problems. Even better they aren't afraid to try new things, and when they don't work they swap things out and change them up based on the feedback from members. Like all gyms there's always personalities, but on the whole its been a positive experience which has kept me consistent and seen me drop 36kg and keep it off. Give it a go, nothing to lose.
Hi Thomas, thank you for your review. We are delighted you enjoy the facilities and it's a pleasure to have you

Friendly staff that supply all types of supplements and also has a gym kitchen that serves healthy protein based foods. Free parking available from 18:00 monday to Friday and free on the weekend. Car park is located right next to the gym where it costs around £1.60 for two hours.

Thank you lewis
Fantastic experience: Very good gym, its by far the best gym in essex, It has all the equipment you need plus more. There is always a good atmosphere and staff are friendly. The food in there is also great.
Fantastic experience: "Ripped Gym" - An awesome atmosphere from the moment you walk through the door. I have been a member since the first opening of their doors and I haven't been disappointed. Staff are always friendly, attentive and always willing to help at the drop of a hat I cannot fault this gym in anyway and will continue to be a member for the foreseeable future. - on another note the "Ripped Bomb" Energy Drink has to be tried :).
Fantastic experience: Best strength training gym in Harlow and local area, MASSIVE selection of dumbbells - Loads of benches, strength machines that you will actually make use of and a great shake bar & cafe. I couldnt ask more from a gym with this reasonable price tag! I moved to Ripped a couple years ago from trying various other gyms around the area never staying longer than a year, I have now been with Ripped for around 3 years! I have no desire to change gyms! Great atmosphere and friendly staff - says it all really :) Keep up the good work guys!
Fantastic experience: I have trained in various gyms around the country,in Leeds,Dundee,Edinburgh,Glasgow and even London but all pale compared to the Ripped Gym experience,the staff,the atmosphere and the equipment,everything one needs to make a radical change to their physique and mental attitude,definitely the best there is in the UK. I am proud to be a member of this establishment!
Fantastic experience: very good gym grate equipment and vibe
Thank you Drew.
Fantastic experience: Pound for pound (all puns intended) this gym has excellent facilities when compared with others offering the same service. I joined because of proximity and flexible membership options. The modified PAYG Bronze membership allowed me to join. Loads of supplements, restaurant serving nutritious meals to cater for serious athletes. Decent bathroom facilities. They've got free weights for days! I think I should stop now :-) .... I had to continue: I've got a wonderful personal trainer and the cost of the sessions are reasonable.
Thank you Akpo. We are so pleased you enjoy the Facilities. Please enjoy a free mix up protein next time you are in on us.
