Energy Gym: Opinions

4.8/5 (46 Opinions)

Fantastic experience: Nice gym, very friendly staff and customers!

Andrew Jackson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brilliant independent gym with very reasonable membership prices. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the gym itself is well kitted out. I've been using the gym for years and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone local in the area. Having recently become a student at the University of Edinburgh I've unfortunately taken the decision to cancel my membership at Energy Gym and use the university's facilities instead as this is more cost-effective for me. However, I have no doubt that I will be back in the not-too-distant future! Thanks for all the memories and training sessions. With warm regards, Andrew

Alessandro Alonzi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym experience ever. I've been attending gyms since the age of 15 (i.e for the last 35 years) and this is easily the best one yet. Super friendly and helpful and simple but great equipment. Why oh why did it take me a whole 35 years to find you!!

Natasha Alonzi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Friendliest gym I have ever been a member of and I have been a member of many over the last 30 years! I use the gym and the equipment is excellent, very good quality and well maintained.

Jude Colvin 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve been to especially as an athlete it’s very helped me improve as a player, also lovely bunch of PT’s, and workers: great chat, always wanting the best for you, good laughter.

Yukan Perumal 2 years ago

Positive experience: Positives: Good gym. Very friendly and welcoming staff (big plus). Equipment is generally in good shape, reasonably warm. Large crossfit area. Wide range of machines and dumbbells. Good showers. Music isnt good half the time, but its soft so earphones completely block them out. Criticism: Cables are difficult to use during peak hours, no 2nd cable machine. No machine/cable row machine. Some bars in the crossfit area have very worn grips. Sometimes the 2.5/1.25 plates are no where to be found. Plates are of different brands and sizes (this is more annoying than serious) Overall: 3.5/5

Fantastic experience: one of the most welcoming gyms I have ever been a member of. Great range of machines and DB's that go up to 70kg!

Lawrie Anderson 2 years ago

Positive experience: I attend most weekdays and the welcome I received from the Energy staff and most of the PTs is warm, genuine and friendly. The gym space and apparatus is all that I need to undertake my exercises. A big thanks to Lewis and Nat in particular for introducing me to the gym and always having a friendly smile and warm welcome on entry. Thanks also to Gavin for the friendly banter and cheerful approach when we meet. A big shout out to Simon for the PT sessions that always challenge me and likewise to Emma for the weekly classes. I like the vibe of the gym and the ethical approach. Thanks to all the Energy staff. Finally, one area I think that could Improve is the aloofness and ‘arrogance’ of the Skirmish trainers as much of the space is shared but their behaviour sometimes suggests otherwise!

Hannah Cameron 9 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Edinburgh! Staff are super friendly and remember your name after your first visit. The equipment is second to none with the usual cardio and weights equipment but then so many other toys!! Slam balls, trx bands, kettle bells......there's just so much more you can do here to keep your workout varied! You don't have to get a PT to get their help. The staff are more than happy to come over and give you ideas for exercises or just help you out if you're in on your own. You get so much out of your membership that you won't get at any other gym. Although if you do want a PT I can't recommend Sheona enough... She's changed my life! There's loads of parking there as well which is so handy as I live a bit further out of town in Bonaly, but I can still reach the gym, get parked and get started in 10 minutes! 100% would recommend to anyone!!

Rod Hutchison 11 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great value gym in Colinton, a huge range of free weights and machinery including TRX, Concept 2 rowers, kettlebells etc and a huge aerobic studio with a range of classes. Very keenly priced at £18 a month and a great cafe upstairs for a bite to eat afterwards

Fantastic experience: Edinburgh's best kept secret when it comes to training. Super friendly, great staff, great atmosphere, suitable for everyone from the beginner to the experienced trainer. Superb hall space. And the first gym in Edinburgh to embrace Kettlebells! What more could you ask for?
