UPSU Gym and Sports Centre

Fantastic experience: Great place - very welcoming staff, not a big gym but it has what most people will need... mostly students, some uni staff and members of public, everyone respecting each other's workouts and getting along easily. Crucially the gym have extended their weekend opening hours which previously were quite restrictive, so I'm very pleased about that, I think that shows they listen to their feedback.

Positive experience: Cheap for Uni students typically decently busy and small but decent amount of equipment

Fantastic experience: Not a member. I sit outside to catch my breath when walking from the women's centre in Sutherland Road to the bus stop outside the box

Positive experience: Good price and good machines - would be great if there was a more publicised induction for new members on how to use all the machines

Fantastic experience: I have always had an extremely good experience here at the UPSU Gym and Sports Centre. Being a student and having a place on campus where I can exercise and do classes each week is something that I really enjoy and I am very grateful for. The staff are always extremely welcoming, smiley and always happy to help with anything. I think people can feel very self-conscious and worried about attending a gym however the UPSU Gym is the most comfortable and safe place to be and I always leave feeling so much better and more confident in myself. I would highly recommend this Gym and Sports centre to anyone!

Fantastic experience: This gym is a quiet and clean place for exercising in the gym and aerobic exercises as well as group exercises with an experienced trainer. I recommend that you definitely take part in the sports classes here. Think about the health of your body!

Positive experience: Great price and has all the equipment I need. Only complaint is that it is very small and can get quite crowded at times.

Positive experience: Really good gym for students. Affordable price and good equiment, cleaned and tidy. And also, really nice and friendly staff. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because of the lack for specific equiment. Apart from that, 10/10

Fantastic experience: Decent gym, never too busy. Plus the receptionist is hot

Fantastic experience: Had everything you need however it's a tad small so it might get busy. It was quite when I went though. For the price it's amazing

Fantastic experience: Great place. Could use a Jacobs ladder

Positive experience: Only been going for a short while but it's definitely worth the price at £12 per month or an annual fee which works out cheaper. Got all the equipment you need and you get access to all bucs university gyms. Not 100 percent sure if you need to be a student or not. I am a student and I know any student at any university can join this gym which works out really nicely as there are multiple universitys in Plymouth.

Positive experience: Best for the price. The changing rooms are very neat, tidy and spacious. The gym is very well ventilated.

Fantastic experience: You can rent for a few hours and have fun with friends and family

Fantastic experience: This is part of the University of Plymouth and is used by students and local schools, it has great facilities and is disable friendly. Staff are really helpful and friendly.

Negative experience: Hate having exam here

Positive experience: Really need to sort out the temperature control in the squash courts.

Positive experience: Used this gym a number of times as it's just around the corner from where I live. There is enough equipment for me to train with. Compared to Plymouth TruGym, this one is a lot smaller. Edit After coming here monthly for almost a year I have felt the gym has gotten worse. I use a spin bike every time I come to the gym so when it breaks regularly it disrupts my routine. The first spin bike has a broken display, and the second one has a seat that cannot be adjusted. Both problems have been reported but haven't been fixed. Addtionally, one of the displays on the rowing machine is broken and hasn't been fixed for months. While the University pays students to run the gym, I feel the equipment is poorly maintained.

Negative experience: This gym never seems to be open. Closing at 6pm every weekend is absolutely ridiculous.Not much equipment so it's fine for beginners. The location is ok but there are better gyms in the area. Considering everything, the price is decent but there are gyms that are better in price, which have more equipment and are actually open at the weekends. Only actual good thing is that I can play Pokémon Go while I'm working out cus it's a PokéGym.

Positive experience: Good gym in terms of the location, very small and limited equipments

Negative experience: This is the worst gym I have ever been to, I signed up in my first year and the overall experience isn't very nice, you can't just walk in and swipe your card you have to give it to reception which means queuing up after other customers who may be taking a while for them to just scan your card. I also cut my finger open on one of the machines because of a shard of metal sticking out and when I went to the reception to let them know the guy just said 'thanks i'l have a look at that' didn't ask if I was ok or offer any medical supplies. It also has terrible air conditioning, you may be alright in one corner but pretty much the whole gym is warm making working out so uncomfortable. Finally the opening hours suck, weekdays are manageable but when you want a workout after dinner on a weekend the gym shuts at 6pm on Saturday and Sunday, so many times iv'e walked there expecting it to be open like any reasonable gym and its closed, I paid £100 for a year here and i'll be going to pure gym next year which is 5 mins down the road.

Fantastic experience: Great gym facilities, and reasonably priced, much cheaper than the ( worse) gym in my hometown.

Fantastic experience: One of the best places for squash in the local area. Only issue with them is they close rather early. Other than that it is the best courts about.

Positive experience: Pretty good

Positive experience: The best squash courts in the South West, at a great price, until management got greedy and raised the fees.

Positive experience: It has good rage of good quality, very new equipment and they constantly make effort to improve the place, but the experience is hindered by the room restriction and its popularity with student, it makes it hard sometimes to find a spot (weekends tend to be ok thought). I would suggest having a website where one can see how many people are in the gym before going, I feel it may improve the experience.

Negative experience: Lack of equipment makes it a poor gym. It's also very small
