Muscle Performance Gym: Opinions
Negative experience: Rude staff, disrespectful and unpleasant time being here. Do not recommend
Fantastic experience: Great place and excellent equipment top gym great to get back to a proper gym well done to kev & jo
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym! Jo the owner is amazing,, showed me the ropes when I first joined and then helped my wife get back in to the gym, supported and helped her when she joined. Always have a laugh there but if you have no manners, respect or can’t have a laugh then probably not the place for you.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, owner is extremely helpful, there is a huge range of equipment and weights, as well as a great choice of cardio machines. Also no contract and reasonably priced, love coming here.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in all of South Yorkshire
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with every piece of equipment imaginable. Great owners and fellow members.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in the UK. Hands down. Amazing equipment, stuff I’ve never seen in UK gyms before. The owners are absolutely great - this is how gyms should be. Not the type of gym to just put headphones on and not talk to anyone. this gym has captured the 80s and 90s era of gyms where people actually talk to each other and are social. If you’re in Sheffield and looking for a gym with day passes, this is the one
Negative experience: Great kit, top level quality eg nautilus equipment. However the front of house staff / owner was downright disgusting in his behaviour towards me as a lying day pass member. Spoke to me as if I was brain dead and turned his nose up after he asked me where I was from. Would recommend the kit however you can’t train to failure as it’s too noisy for you to breathe mid set allegedly. If you’re in Sheffield either go to muscle fusion or UF Rotherham for a session
firstly you were told the rules put the weights away and no BANGING this rule you broke from the first set and kept on doing i let it go for at least an hour why does so called key board warriors leave a message like this when the break the rules i didnt turn my nose up dont care were you live again as long you dont abuse the equipment your partner was go as gold and for your information the gym you stated all have or had broken equipment[see there stories]and you had the attitude on leaving partner said bye and YOU had nose in the air to sum up the gym is in PERFECT working order because of RULES we have 20 stoners in here and they train beyond failure guess what NO banging so dont know what you were doing [cant train in flip flops lol]
Negative experience: This gym has loads of great equipment. Small cardio section. Lots of free weights and machines. We'll spread out and a good price of admission. But don't even think about moaning or groaning while working out and especially dont make any noise when lowering the weights back to the start position or rack. The old man will get a hard on and come and have a go at you! I got moaned at by him and felt like I was back in primary school about the get the cane off the head master. I even apologised but he kept going on with himself. I wasn't even letting the weights go down hard, just to noisy for him. Its a gym for god sake. It's expected that there is some noise and who trains as quiet as a mouse...
Fantastic experience: Well equipped, well maintained and well run. Great place to train.
Fantastic experience: Good range of equipment. You can pay for just one session if you wish.
Fantastic experience: The gym is very well maintained and clean. There's plenty of equipment and weights so you never have to wait around for equipment to get your session done.
Fantastic experience: Paid for 1 session and a day later paid for a month thats how good the equipment is. Epic place.
Fantastic experience: The support for all members by Jo and Kev is fantastic, no matter what age, shape, ability or weight you are.
Fantastic experience: Use this place every day, friendly place and good equipment.
Fantastic experience: The most FEMALE friendly gym ive ever been to!!! - if you DON'T want to be leered at or chatted up by complete clowns come down here where you can train in peace!
Fantastic experience: BEST GYM EVER!!!
Fantastic experience: Great, friendly gym! I'm so sad I've moved away from the area so can't train here anymore.
Fantastic experience: Been to lots of gyms all over the world the equipment and cleanliness is in the top 3! excellent place to train.
Fantastic experience: Wasn't sure what to expect after leaving JD but have been training here for 4 weeks now and love the choice of equipment and the atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Been coming here 3 years and there is amazing kit in every area of the gym. The owners run a tight ship about returning you're dumbells/plates when finished and not smashing up the equipment but this results in a clean gym with no 'out of order' signs in sight ever.
Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere - friendly people and no bad attitudes - heaven!
Fantastic experience: Super tidy gym with a positive vibe.
Negative experience: nice gym with professional equipment. the service is unhelpful towards immigrants during training, it is forbidden to motivate oneself loudly I put down the barbell when pressing on the chest, twice I was warned that again I am taking the bar back too loud and I will stay I have to leave the gym I do not recommend this gym
Complete lie, you did'nt talk to anyone when you came in, we tell everyone that comes to this gym no banging put your weights away simples, that's it , that's why there is not one broken machine in this gym, and Ive got plenty of machines, if you like to come back in we will get the cctv up and we will prove that you are lying, that nothing was said to you while you was on the bench, thats the beauty of cctv.......
Fantastic experience: I was very worried and nervous entering a weight gym on my own jo and kev are just brilliant. Always made me feel welcome and at home and I love the place built confidence because of it.
Thank you my lovely nice to hear, you can always ask us for anything xx
Fantastic experience: Great Gym, Great owners. Was only here for the week but the owners went above and beyond to help me with my training despite knowing I was only there for a few days. Will definitely return when back in Sheffield
Thanks for that buddy we always try to help where possible, it was great having you xx
Negative experience: I to call in to the gym to enquire about membership a few months ago, and I have too agree with the negative comments regarding the people behind the counter, rude is an understatement to describe them, clearly they don’t like people of colour as I’m a black guy and was with my partner who is white and she agreed with my observations, it’s 2022 and they are supposed to be providing a service but it look to me that it’s only for the chosen few. In my opinion avoid
Fantastic experience: Best gym ive ever been to. Amazing selection of equipment and plenty of proper weights.
Fantastic experience: will be back!!
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, I’ve been to gyms all over the world and this I definitely one of the best. Lots of equipment that you wont find in other gyms and lots of knowledge about fitness and the fitness world. Members are respectful to other and new members and to the equipment weights always get put back and never dropped. Good gym humour a really good and effective place to train
Fantastic experience: Been training at MP for many years. Its a Top gym with top notch equipment. staff will go out of their way to help and support you with anything you require. Highly recommend :)
Fantastic experience: Just a genuine gym, friendly advice when needed. You go and do what you do, no strings attached no long contracts. No big pressure. Mix of people going from beginners to experienced, men and women.
Fantastic experience: Great place great staff great equipment. Amazing gym. Always a good time and a murderous workout.
Negative experience: An ignorant and unbelievably arrogant person works their. Absolutely disrespectful behaviour. It's not a surprise why there were up to 10 people at 5PM, when I and my friend went to ask for some information regarding how to sign up, conditions and prices. The only answer which somehow he managed to produce - twice was "better stay where are you at" (JD). Mr Smallest Ego with a weight which is a fraction of his huge pity lack of complexity. Ever. Better start to develop some "man" behaviour and tell your clients the things directly instead giving them advices to stay away, kitty xenophobic boy. ---- REPLY TO THE REPLY: Thank you, you have found a time to reply to me after 1 year. Your memory should be like an elephant's one. The bad thing is that your reply doesn't cost a penny, since it is not even close to the truth. We have NEVER been rude! NEVER! The ONLY question we asked was: How can we join and what are the conditions? I don't care for Joanne or whatever's called. You are IGNORANT AND XENOPHOBIC. Smallest ego owner I have ever met in the city. If someone wants to experience the poorest reception experience in the whole UK it must come to you and then leave. Bye!
First thing you did when you come in was rude to the staff, so the staff are then not going to be that happy are they please come back in and ask for Joanne she will deal with you one to one x
Negative experience: There was a sign on the main road (Halifax Road) advertising the gym. I went there to check their equipment and fees. The receptionist (the owner probably) told me they are not looking for new members and to stay with my current gym. I hope the problem was not that I'm a foreigner and I speak English with an accent. I can't believe how rude this guy was.
Fantastic experience: If you want a gym that is focusing around lifting weights, you need not look any further. It has every piece of equipment you could want and has so much variety for each and every body part. Truly a fantastic lifting gym for individuals who are there to work and not just pose for Instagram! They have created a top class facility.
Fantastic experience: Great place very clean lots of equipment and jo is very helpful.
Fantastic experience: This gym is outstanding, world class equipment, I just wish it was my local , ,saying that I'll be going again ASAP . Extremely tidy and clean in fact it's pristine! As for the owners top class ! Welcoming, very friendly and Extremely knowledgeable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND VISTING !
Fantastic experience: Just want to write and say thank you for all the lovely comments I know we cant please everyone , and Im so looking forward to having my lovely customers back miss you all , miss the laughs , taking the mick , but also missing you all getting the results you ask for, cant wait for my O.A.P to be back they make my week , so hang in there everyone and Muscle Performance Gym will be here for all of you again xxxx
Fantastic experience: A top quality gym, the most equipped gym i've trained at for sure. Friendly owners, who are more than willing to help and give you advice. Great atmosphere aswell, never far from a laugh. would highly reccomend quitting the commercial gyms and going private with MP.
Fantastic experience: I've trained at gyms all across the world and I have to say that Muscle Performance is in my favourite gym of all time. The gym set up, cleanliness, the brilliant bespoke equipment, nutrition products, great service (plenty of banter) and the incredible knowledge of the owners from training, supplements, diets and winning trophies, is just world class. If you want to be the best in the UK, there's only one place to train - it's in Sheffield! Well done to the team who run this!
Negative experience: Trained at all the independent gyms across Sheffield but was always hesitant to train here due to the rep this place has in regards to the people who own it. This is a fantastic facility no doubt but the attitude of the owners absolutely stinks. Theres a reason such a great facility is so quiet. The guy behind the counter needs to learn some basic manners and customer service skills; too busy trying to impose his authority and will on people. Some great facilities in the local area such as Ultraflex, Muscle Fusion, Muscle Madness and Titanium which are also brilliantly equipped and are ran by great, genuine people. Would recommend them over this place any day. Dont believe in writing poor reviews but its warranted with this place.
Fantastic experience: All the equipment for strengh you could dream off .not as much for fitness but still would find plenty to do
Fantastic experience: Amazing equipment and awesome owners
Fantastic experience: Quality as always
Fantastic experience: Great range of machines! Very clean. Unpretentious and welcoming.
Fantastic experience: Quality equipment. Great training atmosphere. No nonsense, hard work and gains.
Fantastic experience: It has got what a wide range of weights every machine you ever need to train
Fantastic experience: Great place to train. Recommend it to anybody who's serious about training. Plenty of parking.
Fantastic experience: What a gym! By far the best around. Had been told the kit was superb and wasn't disappointed !
Fantastic experience: I have been to a lot of gyms over the years I have been training but MP is the best I have come across very clean plenty of top quality machines and free weights owners are friendly easy to approach if u have any doubts in training there more than happy to help and to top it off great bunch of guys/gals train there every 1s friendly p.s avoid Joanne she will keep u talking for hour haha lovely lady she is
Fantastic experience: Literally the nicest gym I've been to. After visiting numerous gyms for prices and opening times I wasn't given any time whatsoever just directed to the door where the prices and times were. I then came across muscle performance and spoke with the owner Jo who was extremely helpful and welcoming. She asked numerous questions to what I wanted to get out of the gym including what I eat and how to get the best out of my workout. If you look up customer service surely there's a picture of Jo! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this gym and Jo if you are looking for a great friendly place to train with a knowledgeable ethical person who clearly is interested in you and not profits. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: What a gym! I was like a kid in a candy shop with all the different equipment ... Signed up for a month and no direct debit needed! Happy days!

Fantastic experience: For never being in a gym before I dont think I could have picked any better. Brilliant in all ways

Fantastic experience: The best gym in Sheffield by far! Joanne is very helpful with anything you need if it's just some advice or instructions on using equipment!
Fantastic experience: Great staff, great gym
