The Gym Group Edinburgh Straiton

Fantastic experience: Good Gym. Could be bigger, mixed of PT’s Kristen Baxter, everyone I see her I fall in love.

Fantastic experience: Please get a T - bar Row Machine.

Fantastic experience: Been going here for 2 months now and it's been amazing! Has all the equipment you would need for your workout and really kind staff who you can sign up with for Personal Training sessions. I would recommend Luca as a PT as he has helped me with gaining a lot of confidence in the gym and how to use the equipment properly with the right form for lifting.

Negative experience: Has to be one of the smallest most compact gyms ever, signed up for a month and one month only, can’t imagine how that will be at peak times.

Negative experience: The gym is small, disorganised and dirty. The only positive is the price. The staff don't seem to care at all, and their night shift cleaner is shockingly bad!

Positive experience: Super basic, and can be very busy during peak times. Weights machines are pretty clunky and uncomfortable but has a pretty large rack area. 24hr access is a big plus. Cheap but worth the money. This gym doesn't have a permanent member of staff on site.

Fantastic experience: Great PTs, equipment and space! Good everyday gym

Fantastic experience: Have been enjoying the small group learn to lift classes with Kristen!

Fantastic experience: I joined the gym group straiton when it first opened but never had the confidence to go. In January I decided a PT was the way to go. Got in touch with Kellie who has been training me since. Fantastic sessions although I am sure she tries to kill me sometimes. Seeing a difference now in my tolerance and stamina. Not going to say look forward to my sessions as I know if she sees this will make it harder. But defo keep going to reach my goals.

Fantastic experience: Gym has a very good selection of machines, and is clean and tidy. Been doing PT sessions with calum for a couple months now, 15kg down and much stronger. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities at The gym group , exercise equipment for all requirements plus PT s on hand to help (including Kellie) with weight machines, diet and fitness plans .

Fantastic experience: Great gym, very clean and accessible. I joined the gym back in October to build on my strength, I reached out to Calum about beginning pt sessions, Calum is very supportive and encouraging during my sessions and always makes sure I’m doing the best I possibly can.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with a fantastic engaging manager, Jacob.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of the gym group straiton since it opened and I absolutely love it! To have an affordable gym option on my doorstep with regular classes is amazing! The PTs are all really friendly and welcoming…special mention to Jacob who always brings so much enthusiasm and passion to his classes! Would definitely recommend! ‍♀️️

Fantastic experience: One of the most motivating instructors. Jacobs burn 400 calss is brill. Always makes you want to and feel you can do more to get the best out of the class

Fantastic experience: Calum has taken me since I started, he has work in all areas in which I require whilst recovering from a shoulder injury. I have past his workouts on the my physio who has said they are great for the injury I have sustained. He keeps me motivated throughout my session. Excellent individual and a credit to the gym group.

Fantastic experience: I’ve recently joined the gym and so far there’s only positive things to say about it. It’s a well equipped gym which offers a good variety of classes. The staff are friendly and approachable and they offer PT sessions which I started with Calum McMillan. He’s very knowledgeable and professional. I told him what my goals were and he set up a fantastic program to help me to achieve them, following up and offering assistance if needed during the week. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Positive experience: Bit small but got everything you need

Fantastic experience: Really enjoying the LBT and upper body classes ran by Jude. Always a great session and atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, fantastic instructors and a special shout out to Kellie who always pushes me in classes and on the equipment. My fave class is Kellies badass class. I also want to shout out to Jakob who has fantastic energy and is always checking in. Been a member since it opened and loving it.

Fantastic experience: Great little gym and the PT Calum is one of the best out there, hands down. The progress I’ve made with him in the last 6 months is nothing short of unbelievable. If you’re thinking about joining a solid gym with good people in it and even better trainers, The Gym Group Straiton is definitely a top contender.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym for the experienced and beginner. Plenty machines and equipment to choose from and very friendly staff. I’ve been attending sessions with PT David Walker and have seen results very quickly and his advice has been very motivating and encouraging

Fantastic experience: Recently started getting back in to exercise after a hiatus and I've found the gym at Straiton to be great. Well equipped and great instructors, Calum and Jaccob are particularly fab being encouraging in classes and with absolutely no judgement of your fitness level.

Fantastic experience: I have been at The Gym Group at Straiton since it opened and would recommend it to anyone. Value for money is brilliant, great equipment, 24 hours and brilliant staff (especially Kristen and Jacob).

Fantastic experience: Great Gym, Super friendly and helpful staff. Thanks to Kristen for looking after me today.

Fantastic experience: Jacob and Kristen were absolutely wonderful makes the gym experience even better

Fantastic experience: Been working out here for a few months now and really enjoy coming here. Got everything I need for my workouts which are centred around Rugby. Staff are always super friendly and willing to help/give advice when asked

Fantastic experience: Class gym, staff friendly and knowledgeable to offer help whenever needed. Had a great experience with Kirsten and Jacob recently. Great gym all round!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff are friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend David Richard (drfitnesscoach_pt) as a PT there , I have been going to weekly sessions for while now and he quickly got to grips and took on board what I can do and what I needed to work on. He pushes and motivates me at every session even when I believe myself that I cant do something, he then helps me prove that I can. He always has sessions well planned and designed specifically for me. The sessions are also fun and he has a great sense of humour which matches mine. I would highly recommend him as a PT at the gym straiton.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, friendly staff, always very clean and tidy.

Fantastic experience: Great gym

Fantastic experience: It has been very good i am heavily enjoying my time here.

Fantastic experience: Great Gym with plenty of squat racks. Friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: The Gym at Straiton itself is well stocked for all workout needs from cardio to strength training, it's generally clean and it's extremely convenient for me living in the Loanhead area. I'd give the Gym itself 4 stars. The thing that makes this gym different is the extremely knowledgeable and kind PT staff. I've been working with Kristen Baxter for 8 weeks as a complete beginner to strength and weight training, and the difference has been incredible - I've felt stronger, happier, I've built more of a routine and I have so much more energy. I'd recommend her to anyone that isn't sure about where to start.

Fantastic experience: Kristen was a great teacher and took lots of time and patience with me as I broke my wrist several months ago!

Fantastic experience: I love this Gym group in Straiton. I have been able to show up consistently for my workouts because of the way this gym group has set up entry & exit with 24 hours access. Within 6 weeks of working with my PT Kellie Morton,I’ve seen massive positive changes in the form of body weight loss, fab muscle tone and improved energy levels/stamina! Her background in nutrition helped me demystify many of the food related misconceptions that is widely prevalent. I cannot recommend her enough.

Fantastic experience: This is a friendly gym and even at busy times I can usually get on the machines I want to use. I love working with Kristen on my workouts, she is a great personal trainer. Would recommend both the gym group for value for money and Kristen for her expertise and enthusiasm.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to the gym group Straiton for 6 months doing gym workouts and classes, I started seeing Kristen a few months ago for pt and she set up training programs for me , she is fab! She has helped me change my mindset when it comes to taking care of my health and fitness , shes so encouraging and working me at my pace but always pushing me a bit further ! The classes are excellent, a wide selection to choose from and only 30 minutes which I find more achievable, all the trainers that take them are great, very friendly and knowledgeable, giving support and advice!

Fantastic experience: Started in January 24 and I wish I’d joined sooner, there’s always a member of staff around for any guidance, everyone’s friendly and the gym is always clean and ready to go, no matter what time of day it is. Big shout out to Kellie who not only has got me fitter but also has built up my confidence to go further, although she loves lunges‍♀️

Fantastic experience: This is a fantastic gym for me on a personal level all the staff are friendly and approachable a great variety of kit available I started July last year and the gym has became my safe place I love going every morning and there is a real sense of community within the gym.

Fantastic experience: Great BadAss class with Kellie this morning, loved it!

Fantastic experience: Brutal but honest!! Definitely will be back next Friday!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, always a great experience. Staff are great Kellie and Jacob especially. Always very clean as well.

Fantastic experience: Circuit Training is a great class and Kelly is a fantastic instructor, really gets you motivated for the rest of the day ahead

Fantastic experience: The gym group has great facilities and is very easy to use the equipment. All staff are very lovely and always willing to help. If you’re interested in personal trainer sessions, Kristen at Gym Group has been amazing and really listened to what I want to get out of the sessions and been able to shape my journey around me in a supportive way. Definitely would recommend!

Fantastic experience: I am really enjoying getting my fitness back post partum. My PT, Kristen has been amazing at supporting me, getting me feeling confident at the gym and pushing me to be my best

PT advise and sessions there are really knowledgeable and push you to achieve your goals. It's a friendly and clean place and the staff are always chatty, welcoming and have time to help you. Special shout out to Jacob and Kellie X

Fantastic experience: Really great equipment, friendly staff and quality facilities what more could you ask for.

Fantastic experience: Great wee gym, friendly staff always happy to help out with a spot or to answer questions

Fantastic experience: Fab Gym! Great classes and always opportunities to go when not too busy!

Fantastic experience: Great value gym and being open 24/7 means you can go anytime and fit in around work. Staff are really friendly and helpful if you need anything. Have recommended to friends and family.

Fantastic experience: Good and affordable place to gym

Positive experience: A little bit smaller in comparison to a Pure Gym, but has the essentials

Fantastic experience: Excellent service, excellent gym. Very helpful gym Trainers. Super clean and well worth the money

Positive experience: It was firs time when I was there. Place it's good location for me. But the gym it's small,(much smaller then cameron toll )and I don't see big equipment maybe it's not enough space. Atmosphere was good and I liked it was not to many people on Sunday 7pm.

Fantastic experience: Great gym great workout never to busy

Fantastic experience:

Positive experience: Not bad. Everything you'd need is available. The only problem is the ventilation which is not very efficient and can get quite difficult to stay inside once there are about 30 people or more in the gym

Positive experience: For beginners and medium, advanced people is a good start. I'm starting 4 weeks ago, and im happy. Lots of classes to choose, equipped as well.‍♂️‍♀️‍♂️

Fantastic experience: Went with a friend, and it was so worth it. All equipment is nice and modern, you workout at your own pace and for as long as you want. Definitely going to get myself a membership

Fantastic experience: The gym is great busy at times but that’s normal at any gym can be frustrating waiting on machines at time as so many younger ones want to sit on there phones instead of properly working out other than that great facilities staff are friendly especially Jude who has helped so much in my personal training knows what he’s talking about and very knowledgeable would highly recommend Jude as a personal trainer to anyone looking for a personal trainer. All in all a great gym to go to.

Fantastic experience: Have never been very motivated or enjoyed going to the gym, joined here at the end of February and started PT sessions with Calum. I’m now attending at least twice a week and feeling the best I’ve felt in years! Calum is really supportive, encouraging and has made my sessions tough but enjoyable! Would thoroughly recommend!

Negative experience: Came with a friend who had a daily pass, his code didn’t work and none of the team members bothered to come up and help. Spoke to someone and got told they’re busy and will come up in 20mins?! People have places and work to be at and not stand about waiting for 20+mins so we just left. Overall the staff is quite unbothered and quite clearly don’t have a decent work ethic. Gym is ok for a chain gym.

Fantastic experience: Would like to to say a massive thanks to jude Mothersole for helping me get into shape. Was doing it by myself but was just getting small results, jude has shown me the right way to use equipment and the correct way to use the the weights to get the best results. Can honestly say have never felt better mentally and physically.

Positive experience: 场地小，器械少

Positive experience: AC still rubbish, machines falling apart, where the maintenance team? Feel like I should be bringing a set of Allen keys in with me

Fantastic experience: Fab

Fantastic experience: I was shown round by Kellie on my first visit. I had broken my arm and was looking to improve my fitness and Kellie’s profile fitted what I was looking for and I felt comfortable with her. I have not regretted a minute of it. She is so friendly, clear in her instruction and encouraging. I feel so much better. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Positive experience: Really enjoy class maybe a wee bit more variety in exercises, but really good

Positive experience: Decent gym, accessible, but far too small for the demand and only 1 of each machine. I come at 0530 to beat the rush before work and still end up waiting around to use equipment.

Fantastic experience: Kieron’s lifting club is so much fun and supportive. We have all been getting stronger and Kieron is a great teacher. 10/10 would recommend to everyone

Negative experience: Very average gym. Not sure why they need 3-4 chest press machines when there are benches, smith machine, pec deck and cables. Could be replaced with more variety for different body parts. Should remove some of the bikes upstairs and put more treadmills as always busy during peak times and upstairs cardio hardly used. Locker locks broken, only 5 individual shower cubicles (unisex) so good luck getting one during peak times. With no local competition it seems strange they went for small unit with very limited equipment. £22 a month is ok.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, clean and the abs blast, bum & tums gives you a good sweat

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym lovely staff very friendly and helpful

Negative experience: Just had a membership on sunday. It's 3rd day in a row, and I am unable to get gym access. Glad to hear "All ok" on phone after passing along weekend, today in-person visit in evening suggest all OK in app and advised to visit in "day time". What a shame.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, I love my PT sessions with Jacob and also love my classes. I usually attend Jude’s crazy circuits and fitbox, Kellie’s amazing LBT and Nikki’s fab bootcamp. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks again guys! Melissa.

Positive experience: Floor is not clean everything else is fine, thanks

Positive experience: Very good equipment. All what you need in one place

Fantastic experience: Great gym, full of equipment and very friendly staff! I train with Nicola as PT and she is great, very flexible with schedule and always challenging with the workouts! Definitely recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, great facilities. I use PT Nicola who challenges me in a fun and personable fashion and has transformed my fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend The Gym Group (Straiton). Facilities clean, well maintained and equipped with everything I would expect. Staff welcoming, polite, helpful, knowledgeable and professional. Very enjoyable experience.

Fantastic experience: Nicki is fantastic! Her team are great and everyone is really committed to making your visit a friendly one, highly recommend to everyone

Fantastic experience: Been using David the pt and he’s helped me put on considerable muscle over the last two months highly recommended thanks guys
