Middlesex University - The Fitness Pod

Negative experience: The facilities are not very good

Fantastic experience: It is a really good and nice gym. Staff is very friendly and helpful. And affordable monthly charge as well. If you like a quiet atmosphere you have to go before 1.00pm. Other times are also OK.

Positive experience: Good gym for price

Fantastic experience: You have to try it!!

Negative experience: Horrible place weights on the cable machines are all wrong and too light..... very clicky atmosphere amongst some users and staff .. one member of staff had a go at me incorrectly for not putting my weights away but said nothing to his pals when they did the same .. could not use the lat pull machine because the security guard was using it .. . One is made to fell unwelcome in there

Fantastic experience: An excellent place for your workouts, Personal Trainers are very helpful and knowledgeable; Highly recommend!

Positive experience: Tennis courts are pretty good maintained. However, booking, contacting and payment are not handy enough.

Fantastic experience: My regular gym, very well equipped and organised for the small membership fee in the area.

Positive experience: My hub

Fantastic experience: Great GYM. There is everything I need, including punching bag. It was clean and nice. Perfect.

Fantastic experience: Great services and so far great support. Access to the public as well for various activities. Make sure to visit sometime ;)

Positive experience: It's ok, small but OK. Good environment. Cheap

Fantastic experience: Very good, despite the fact that they take ages to repair broken equipment.

Fantastic experience: My favourite gym. Clean, quiet @ reasonable price

Negative experience: I'm very disappointed with the service provided by the manager and deputy manager at the university gym. I've been a customer for years and have always received great service, but recently there have been issues. The manager falsely accused me of something and used it as a pretext to suspend my gym membership, which had been free for years due to my basketball trophies. The customer service representative and deputy manager assured me on multiple occasions that I didn't need to add funds to my membership card because I had credit, but after a year and a half, they suddenly claimed they needed payment. Overall, this experience has been very frustrating and I don't recommend using the university sports gym due to their lack of understanding and poor management. Make it more detailed I am extremely dissatisfied with the service provided by the manager and deputy manager at the university gym. Despite being a loyal customer for many years, I recently encountered some serious issues with their conduct. The manager made false allegations against me, leading to the suspension of my long-standing and complimentary gym membership, which had been granted due to my history of winning basketball trophies. Despite being reassured by both the customer service representative and the deputy manager on multiple occasions that there was no need to add funds to my membership card because I had credit, I was suddenly informed after a year and a half that payment was now required. This entire situation has been incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I strongly advise against using the university sports gym due to their lack of competence and mismanagement

Fantastic experience: Staff were really friendly and helped set up my universal BUCS card. Gym quality was very professional and modern

Positive experience: Good all around

Negative experience: Horrible gym, had to ask for refund. They pick and chose wich rules to apply and to who. The staff always picked on me and let everyone else do what they want. They are discriminate and irrational. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

Fantastic experience: Good range of fitness equipment managed by friendly people

Fantastic experience: Good selection of equipment and friendly community feel. Excellent post-COVID biosecurity measures.

Positive experience: Good gym for the price

Fantastic experience: The best in the area

Fantastic experience: I felt safe inside the facility, the staff was nice and the equipment was very good.

Positive experience: Small and doesn't have a broad variety

Positive experience: Good value gym, open at convenient times and never terribly busy. Probably the cheapest in the Hendon area. Equipment is varied and well kept but the space itself is very small and crammed with very little natural light. Coaches are generally nice and friendly but the main issue is the crowd that go. If you go at a more abstract time you see the regulars who are always happy to chat but if you go at peak times for the students you get a lot of unfriendly and sometimes even aggressive lads who make working out a very unpleasant experience. There is also a distinct lack of rule enforcement in particular the wearing of appropriate footwear. Many walk around the free weight section barefoot / socks which is not only unhygienic but dangerous. Changing facilities are reasonably well kept apart from the showers which have insufficient drainage meaning stagnant water collects making it unpleasant unless you are the first in in the morning.

Fantastic experience: amazjng facilities..world class gym with experienced trainers

Fantastic experience: STATE OF THE ART GYM!!

Fantastic experience: Love it.

Negative experience: Edit post covid: 1 hour 25m maximun time working out policy. They don’t reply emails neither return money, I got subscription before covid and next week closed and been wanting to get my money back as they changed policy and they don’t reply anymore. Not worth it anymore, go somewhere else to train in peace. A shame because was a closer the location, moving to another one without this policy.

Fantastic experience: The Fitness Pod has some of the warmest coaches you will find! A lot of facilities and good music is always on!

Fantastic experience: Compact , but has everything you need for a solid workout. A fantastic gym for its price point.

Fantastic experience: Variety of equipment

Fantastic experience: Helpful staff and clean gym.

Negative experience: Small but good equipment. Never too busy. Staff are fine. My main problem is they have a ladies only hour twice per week. Not a section of the gym. the entire gym. I can train 3 days out of the week and on two of those they have a women’s only hour during the peak times of the morning. Meaning I can’t properly use the equipment. The gym during these times has under a dozen women in. Just corner off a section. This is sexist. Literally using quarter of the equipment. Why is their no men’s hour? I enquiried about this and apparently it’s tradition and Because of certain cultures - but again his is wrong because certain cultures the men also wouldn’t mix therefore to be fair there needs to be a men’s only hour. Also tradition? Next they’ll have slaves here and blame it on tradition. In a world we live in now I find this terrible annoying. Gym on its on is fine though :-p 3.5 stars for the gym.

Positive experience: Nice helpful people

Fantastic experience: Great gym with ok classes

Positive experience: Small but everything you need. Friendly, music not too loud which is great, most gyms are deafening.

Fantastic experience: Modern, nice

Positive experience: Good gym. Has all the basics that are needed and is open at good times. If you want to avoid the crowds go earlier in the morning or during the day not at night.

Positive experience: Up to date equipment, very friendly staff. Isn't busy during the mornings. Wouldn't recommend going in the evenings.
