Lifestyle Fitness Birtley

Fantastic experience: Great staff and the equipment is always clean and working.

Negative experience: Start with the positives. A few nice staff, hence why the 2 and not 1. However, a few that simply don't say thank you or goodbye. Gym opening times are not conducive to a member who works full time. With an 8:15am opening time during the week, it's not possible to get a session in prior to 9am start at work. Gym equipment is dated and needs updating. Cardio equipment clicks and tensions are different on machines of the same type. Weight training machines are fine but some have handles that are coming off and glue gets on hands. Free weights are not the correct one for the stands so if you replace the lower weights you can nip yous hands. An underwhelming customer experience.

Negative experience: Nice gym and nice staff, but changing the opening times to 8.15 and 8.30 is ridiculous. A modern gym needs to open early to fit around people's busy lifes. Washington lifestyle opens at 6.30 for example (can do an hour, get showered and drive to work before this gym even opens). Another Gateshead Council decision that shows their utter disregard to leisure activities. Feels like this decision was made as the first nail in the coffin for this this great little faciltiy. Sad times...

Fantastic experience: Quiet and friendly. Does the job

Fantastic experience: Lovely little but well equipped gym.

Positive experience: It's a decent gym plenty cardio could so with a few more gym machines (for weight training)

Positive experience: A nice little gym with mostly friendly staff although the equipment is very dated and the opening hours limited. Saunas are in the respective changing rooms and only good for 3 people max. Just had a look at rejoining and if you want a month rolling membership it's double the annual up front cost. A real shame in these very unsure time's.

Positive experience: Nice gym full of great equipment there's a wife range it's just a little to expensive.

Positive experience: This is regarding just the gym. Its a reasonable gym. This gym lacks a separate bar bell loose weight bench and squat rack, so you end up using the Smith machines, or you can do dumbells since they do have loose dumbell benches. They do have some good machines, some hammer strength, also some of there own type which are ok. They have many treadmills, cross trainers and bikes and a stepper and climber. Personally I think there are to many treadmills and cross trainers, they should get rid of them and put in more weight machines and benches, there is also some wasted space where they could add something else. If you live local it's worth going, only £20 per month for the gym. If you want to do loose bench press and squating and don't have a home gym it maybe better going elsewhere like JD for example. I've recommended what they could do to improve things since many people have left to go to better gyms but they take no notice. The weights section gets packed at times and you end up having to wait along time for a bench or machine since they don't have many. The weights section is by far the most used yet the treadmills, crosstrainers etc take up at least half of the area and there are always plenty spare. If I managed the place there would be a big change to the layout, which would attract more people and stop people leaving for other gyms

Negative experience: Gym itself is fine, but the direct debit collection company Harlands are an absolute joke you can not cancel your locked into a rolling contract and can only cancel under certain circumstances such as medical grounds etc, avoid because of Harlands group
