Ripped Gym Basildon: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great place, nice staff.
Thank you Michael!
Negative experience: After being fined £100 from the parking company you now use and me and my friend both did not see the signs and had not used your gym for a year so had no idea there was a time limit (and we were in your gym the entire time my car was parked in your car park - but hey "not the staff responsibility to warn us" - we will never use this gym again. Disgusting.

Fantastic experience: It’s a HUGE gym. Lots of Hammer Strength machine including a bunch of machines I’d never seen before, and I’ve been to LOTS of gyms. Happened to be in the area to do some work on the car, so I used this gym to kill some time buying a day pass. No regrets. I’d go here regularly if I lived in the area

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Ripped Gym for about 6 months now and I have to say i’m impressed. Yeah, the place has a reputation for being a ‘big blokes’ gym but both staff and customers are extremely friendly no matter your size, condition or gender. This is particularly important for me as i’m a gay and have never felt intimidated or excluded, I simply want to go to a good gym and get no hassle and Ripped offers me that. One thing I would suggest if anyone from their management is reading this, could you please change the opening times to a 5am start? I know this is a big ask but I like to work out in the morning and the current window means I have to rush or risk getting to work late. Having the flexibility of an extra hour would take a great deal of pressure off me. It would also provide you with an advantage over other competitors who seem to open at the same time. Thank you.
Hi Stuart, thank you sooo much for taking time to leave this review. It’s really appreciated and we honestly mean it when we say without members like you, it wouldn’t be what it is ☺️✨✨ A few people have asked about the 5am open and it’s something we are going to look in to for sure, thank you again. ✨
Fantastic experience: gym food and equipment is great

Hi Tony, sorry you feel the music is too loud. Always speak to reception when you are training and they will be happy to assist. Thank you. Krystle
Fantastic experience: Very cool gym and grateful they stayed open today. Staff friendly, facilities all great and kept clean too even though there was a lot of people there. Lots of equipment too and very varied mix of stuff for all users.
Thank you Leon for your kind review! Our cleaners & the team are an asset to us because it does get busy. Thanks again :)) Krystle
Fantastic experience: 2nd best Gym in the world
Fantastic experience: Good gym
Fantastic experience: Went for a day out, loved it
Fantastic experience: Excellent Gym, Currently over for work during the week and getting settled in. Wanted a gym that you can pay as you go until out of hotel. Phoned up and wasnt a bother. Excellent variety of equipment and cool atmosphere. Got one of the meals too, great stuff. Only down fall it doesnt open a little earlier as I prefer to get a workout before work. But all in all Excellent gym.
Fantastic experience: Very clean. Variety of equipment..staff are friendly.
Thank you for your kind comments
Negative experience: Great gym if you like the same song playlist on repeat and machines constantly broken or with bolts hanging out This gym used to be incredible and I would always look forward to training here and now it seems like it has been neglected with young staff just sitting behind the counter on their phones rather than serving people or cleaning the gym I feel a little love and money needs to be invested back into the gym to bring it back up to the standard that it was once in
Hey Liam, sorry you experienced any problems. We currently have no machines out. Just checked when you posted this and according to that week we had one stairmaster not working due to a member dropping their mobile phone in it however this was fixed within 48 hours. We have never had no more than 2 machines out of use at any time however our turnaround is very quick. For a busy gym in the old Skool environment & being a large open warehouse, we pride ourselves on our cleaning and we have a very detailed schedule which is carried out by a cleaning agency we work closely with and our own cleaners who have been with us from the opening in 2014. For the team members being on their mobile phones I will bring this up with them. If you wanted to send a date & time I can check cctv because we take customer service very seriously here. Our playlist has thousands of songs added and is always on a shuffle to suit all. Again I can very sorry for experience was not satisfactory. You can call us anytime and I can arrange a free session if you would like. Krystle
Fantastic experience: Visited the gym yesterday. ,great variety of machines with an old skool feel. Well stocked shop and they offer a variety of shakes and snacks. We were made to feel welcome by both Billy and Reece and both very helpful and great to chat too ,recommend this place to all. Great vibe and atmosphere
Thanks Terry for your feedback! Really appreciated .. I will pass these kind comments on to Billy & Reece
Fantastic experience: Really good equipment, lovely staff cheeky pump at the end
Thank you for ya kind comments!
Negative experience: Staff very rude , steroid user threatening young teen for what looked to be for no reason and staff member stood and watched , terrible atmosphere
Fantastic experience: Great gym never seen so much options for equipment
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I’ve been to. Very good value for the day pass I bought. Massive variety of weights and machines. Showers & changing rooms are very clean. Massive variety of pre workout, water and protein supplements. Best thing about the gym were the staff who answered a few of my queries on the phone and when I got there, the staff behind the counter were great. The white chocolate hazelnut shake topped off a great experience and workout at the gym!
Thanks very much for your great review!!
Fantastic experience: Food is delicious and customer service is also very good
Fantastic experience: Great gym
Fantastic experience: Best gym
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, good community and fantastic equipment also brilliant atmosphere:)
Fantastic experience: Great place for workout
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Best gym in essex and probably top 5 in the UK. Machines and customer service is on point. Not to mention people's culture of putting the weights back, always very clean and organised.
Thank you so much for ya kind comments!!!!
Fantastic experience: Top quality Equipment highly recommended can get busy at times but everyone is very patient staff are also very helpful the gym membership is a very reasonable price , decent amount of spaces to park your car if you decide to drive perfect location especially if you work on the estate my favourite gym around advice everyone to try
Fantastic experience: If I could rate higher than 5 I would! Absolutely love ripped gym! They always make me feel at home and welcome. The atmosphere is always banging and the people are great! The equipment is always looked after and overall cleanliness is 10/10! I come out of my way to travel to ripped because I get the best workouts surrounded by other life minded people and athletes! ❤️
Negative experience: I want to start off with saying this gym has great facilities and equipment - however I was really disappointed with the staff and atmosphere. I came to train at this gym, travelling a fair distance to try it out. Several incidents happened which has made me not want to come again. Firstly, although the gym has a 10PM closing time at 10PM, the fans were turned off at 9:40 (making it extremely hot forcing us to leave) and the music was turned off at 9:45. This made me feel like the staff just wanted us to leave. Secondly, a female member of staff approached me rudely to put back my weights on a machine I had literally got off 30 seconds before and was on the one beside it - no problem but the manner she approached it was very rude. Looking around, plenty of machines had several plates stacked on it - so I was confused why this rule did not apply for all? She then also approached me at 10PM whilst in the car park shouting as she was walking towards my car to get out so they could lock up. I had my engine running and was sorting out my sat nav so I could get home. Again, not a problem as such but rudely approached. Overall, I feel too uncomfortable to go back to this gym. Staff could deal with these matters in a much more professional and polite manner. Sadly will not be training at this gym again which is a shame as there is huge potential for this to be a positive, enjoyable gym to train at.
Fantastic experience: Best gym around
Fantastic experience: Good gym, lots of equipment and friendly staff
Fantastic experience: Ripped gym is amazing, the vibe is always, right the staff are always friendly and you will always be guaranteed a good workout no matter what your training, would recommend this gym to everyone I know because as I said at the beginning ripped gym is amazing.
Fantastic experience: Wow. Where do I start? I have been a member here almost since they opened so I would like to think this will be a comprehensive review (sadly have to find another gym due to moving). Simply the best training facility in the area and probably TOP 5 in the whole country. The owners always invest into this place which is rare even in big commercial gyms. Gym is always clean and You can often see cleaners and staff on the gym floor. Members put their weights and equipment back so You don't have to unload heavy machines etc. Staff is very polite, knowledgeable and always happy to help. If I had to pick one criticism I would say changing rooms/ showers need updating but I believe that is already on the agenda The first visit can be daunting, but that's the case most gyms especially if you're new to training, but don't let that put You off. Just smile and get stuck in. Once you're in the atmosphere will be amazing and You'll surprise Yourself with how much You will push yourself and how much more You will get out of your training sessions here, especially as this gym is often visited by athletes. After training there is plenty of healthy, freshly made meals or protein shakes. This place has changed & improved many lives and I am sure they will continue to do just that for years to come. Ripped Gym - You will certainly be missed
Negative experience: Did a day pass whilst in the area. Didn't like the atmosphere, saw a argument between 2 big guys next me to by the squat racks which got really heated. Staff weren't very friendly or helpful either.
Negative experience: Not a very good gym not at all Professional
Negative experience: Such a bad place and shared info about ppl on WhatsApp.
Negative experience: Uncomfortable experience here!!! Not even worth one star!!
Negative experience: Staff are terrible, speaking about people behind their backs etc. The last thing you need in a gym is to have people laughing behind your back. Liberty
Negative experience: Will never go to this gym again i am not happy with how the staff speak to people
Negative experience: Staff their was rude to the point they were being insulting bad atmosphere would not recommend this place stay well clear
Fantastic experience: Best gym, best staff
Fantastic experience: Very tidy, friendly staff and members, impressive array of equipment. Now my main gym.
Fantastic experience: I was always that overly anxious person about going to the gym. I had been known to have panic attacks about going and being judged. I have never once felt like that in Ripped Gym, Basildon. The atmosphere is always on point and everyone is also so helpful. I always look forward to going as I know seeing how hard everyone else is working makes you want to push yourself too. I have been self conscious of being that fat girl around alot of muscly men and women but I have always felt comfortable in ripped and not judged in the slightest.
Fantastic experience: Best equipment around! Great training atmosphere for all levels. Friendly gym staff always welcoming.
Positive experience: Good as I get my supplements here but been told to many times there’s loads of a certain item over the phone ,get there an hour later to be told they’ve all sold out or only got one item left
Fantastic experience: Checked out Ripped Gym with a day pass to see what the hype was about. Gym This is one serious gym. HammerStrength machines everywhere, nice decor inside, the atmosphere is addictive. The clientele I witnessed are serious lifters and prosumers. This isn't your run of the mill PureGym crowd. Equipment Very good, professional equipment. Spacing could be a bit better but there are no problems. Dumbbells available with high weights. Parking If you come at the right time, there is ample parking. If no spaces are available, there is always street parking. This could be better, but it works. Ease of access Close to the A127 and also accessible from all other routes. The Burnt Mills Estate has a lot of commercial traffic - but that is expected anywhere in the South East of England. People Well, let's say the folks attending this gym are not mainstream. A lot of them physically look like the people you'd cross to the other side of the road for. Lots of neck tattoos, beards and hardcore attitudes. I can only imagine the amount of substances... The way members speak, drive or behave is not for the faint of heart. Not recommended for mainstream members. Other services They also have a kitchen, protein products, a waiting are with chairs, and so much more. Even lots of merchandise with branding. I recommend Ripped Gym for any serious lifters, your hobby will be so much better here. A fun place. Staff are very friendly.
Fantastic experience: Thanks Gents ,
Fantastic experience: Place to be
Fantastic experience: very good gym buzzing atmosphere
Fantastic experience: Insane gym, one of the best muscle gyms in the area but with the right vibe. Staff are friendly and I like how well the gym is maintained. Equipment gets fixed fairly fast and the gym is invested in. Worth a visit if you're touring or if you're serious about your training then worth a membership.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Basildon
Fantastic experience: By far the best weights gym in Essex and the vibe is just banging
Fantastic experience: Yeah decent. Always a good session. Great machines.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Essex
Fantastic experience: I have always worked in the fitness industry and always known that Ripped was local to me however I never really went because I have always trained where I work but today I went and I can honestly say what a place...the equipemnt is fantastic, the club is clean and friendly, I was greeted by a nice lady who was very helpful. I would recommend this club to anyone from novice to professional...great work guys
