Fit4Life Health and Fitness: Opinions
Negative experience: No longer this business. Taken on by new owners Arkham.
Negative experience: Luke was a proper plonka. Ruined a good ol gym with his smarminess the wet wipe loves looking at womans
Negative experience: I joined this gym so I could train 6am to 7am but three months left on my annual membership the opening times changed but I wasn't informed about this change so I turned up as normal 05.50am ready to improve my already amazing body but sadly by 06.10 nobody turned up to open the gym.i tried ringing on and off for four days and finally got a response on the fourth day and then I was told about all the changes.i told them I can only train at that time because of my work commitments and asked for my three months refund but was told no refund.you don't treat your members like this you should make refunds to all members in a position like mine,I feel like I've been robbed of my hard earned money(three months membership =67.50p I could go out and have a nice meal with that.Please get your act together and honour your members.
Hi Paul, Its Luke the owner, apologies for any inconvenience with the change of opening hours I have not even been informed of you wanting a refund, I am more than happy to pay you back the 3 months left on your term If you can please send me your email address I will communicate with you to take your bank details and refund the money Again apologies for the inconvenience, the changes were necessary to suit the new model
Negative experience: 2/3 weeks before the gym fundamentally closed, i purchased two annual upfront memberships for fit4life for me and my partner. I’ve had a long spell away from any sort of formal fitness and honestly, I was quite intimidated by going back into a gym. It might seem weird to some, but it was quite a big deal for me taking that first Step to getting fitter. So imagine my horror when Luke dropped that video about changing the gym. Now my initial response to it (as a business owner myself) was fair play, he’s creating a unique value proposition in the face of a changing industry and new local competitors. But, the gym i joined would have a totally different feel, I can’t remember what he coined it, a high performance personal training centre or so. That wasn’t the vibe I was going for, It would be amazing for some people, but not for me. I don’t want ”world class personal training” As I said, I understood he decision to change things. So, I emailed Luke and said best of luck in the future, I wish you well with it, but it’s not for me, please could you cancel our memberships and refund the fees. This was met with a total snotty attitude, wasn’t interested at all with doing the right thing, instead just got back totally rude emails that really got my back up. I mentioned to Luke that his attitude was totally off base and I wouldn’t hesitate in taking legal action to claim the money back, and he attitude was bring it on. Totally disgusted, bemused and shocked at the levels he’ll stoop to, all for the sake of less than £500. It Wreaks of desperation and it seems he couldn’t care less about me, or any of the rest of his clients so it seems. I just wanted to let you know what you’re dealing with and I’m sure if anyone gets to read this, Luke’s responses will be totally on brand, argumentative and a total disdain for the people in his community It can’t be long till we see this place boarded up/liquidated/sold on. Hopefully this gym will be under better management soon
Negative experience: If it was possible to give zero I would I have been trying to call with regards to my partners membership as she is busy working and not one answer in 10 phone calls spanning over two days. Sort it out
Negative experience: Equipment was broken, no staff in the building to answer queries, not been since as not what it used to be pre covid. Absolute joke. Tried to cancel membership but no replies to emails or emails from harlands.. just happy to keep taking those payments
Negative experience: Was a great gym when I joined last year, but its gone drastically down hill. The equipment isn't maintained or serviced, there are plenty of machines not working correctly. For over a month it was a working construction site. Staff we friendly enough, changing rooms aren't very clean and the sauna didn't work whilst I was there. Very expensive too for what it is. New members were reeled in with new offers, but nothing for existing members.
Negative experience: Owner has been very responsive to this feedback and has now implemented two cleaning crews and personally apologised. He has been proactive with dangerous floor and is attempting to re organise the gym. Still awaiting cleanliness to improve but it's early I have been going to this gym for a few months. It is never cleaned correctly and the machines are cleaned around if cleaning is done. They have built a new platform for free weight benches which is unsafe. All floor is dropping in. Owner/management are aware an no signs/ cordons were in place and I tripped with 2x 30kg dumbells in my hands. Luckily just twisted my knee. Shocking practice and zero health and safety
Positive experience: Best
Fantastic experience: Brilliant local gym, great staff, fantastic classes, good atmosphere
Wow! Thank you for an amazing review of the club John! This means a lot to the team!
Positive experience: Good equipment and staff. Changing rooms need refurbishment but overall its a decent place and . Sauna is a bonus.
Fantastic experience: Great gym really well equipped
Awesome review very much appreciated Lee!
Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Massive variety of equipment and not clique-y like other gyms. Everyone just doing their own thing. Very helpful staff :)
Great review and we really love the fact that you feel so comfortable training at the gym!
Fantastic experience: Great gym and spacious too. Great opening and closing times too and plenty of parking. Does have sauna but due to covid it isn't useable right now which is a shame but overall a good gym with all the equipment you would need from punch bags to free weights to cardio and weight machines. Plenty of space to do all your workouts and open till 10pm weekdays and 5 weekends so great timings too.
Bash we really appreciate your positive review of the club! Many thanks from the whole team!
Fantastic experience: Spacious gym with a great array of equipment. Very clean and tidy. A lot of space between equipment so you don't feel on top of each other. Very friendly staff that will help you achieve your goals. Plenty of classes to keep it interesting.
Such a positive review! Many thanks Carron we really appreciate your support!
Fantastic experience: Show the new instructor, very impressed by her on my return to the gym. Excellent acquisition
Thank you for taking time to share your positive experience of the gym Terence!!
Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever been to.Staff really friendly always willing to help.lots of Equipment to use.Great choice of classes.
Wow that is truly an amazing thing to hear! Massive thank you for your continued support from the whole team Claire!!
Positive experience: The good........Well kitted out and have some really good equipment. Fair pricing for a years commitment. Generous opening times but could be longer at weekends. Staff seem pretty helpful when asked. The bad......very busy at peak times, daytime parking is a joke here also and I had to park a loooong way from the gym. I've never been able to book a class using the app, they seem to show up and be instantly full. Class I attended during the day was one of the worst spinning classes I've ever done. Couldn't hear the instructor and he kept getting off the bike to have a walk around (never seen that before). Overall it's quite local for me but will check out some other gyms when I'm due to renew my membership.
Negative experience: waited over 2 months for a refund on payments taken wrongfully, was passed pillar to post when emailing and phoning about the refund...
Fantastic experience: This is without a shadow of a doubt the best gym I have ever been to, brilliant knowledgeable staff, excellent equipment and classes and a really great atmosphere. For someone who used to be a gymphobe it takes a lot for me to even like a gym, let alone love it.
Wow! Absolutely amazing to hear! Thank you Lisa!
Fantastic experience: Every base covered
Awesome review Tony!
Fantastic experience: Good gym, lots of equipment, friendly staff. Love the classes especially hiit step and legs, bums and tums
Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback about your experience at the Gym Hayley! Appreciated
Positive experience: Been a member from when it opened and seen it get better and better. There are loads of classes to choose from and most of instructors work you hard. Would recommend for the price, shame it doesn't have a pool. Met lots of really lovely ladies over a certain age. Kasia
Many thanks for the positive feedback Kadia!
Fantastic experience: Fit4life is excellent, I really enjoy the classes ,spin & kettlebells are my favourite all the equipment in the gym is well maintained.The gym instructions are professional and definitely know how to push you to the limit (in a good way) all staff are very friendly informative and happy, I’ve also met some lovely ladies at this gym, from day one I have felt comfortable and relaxed when attending FIT4LIFE.

Good to hear that you are enjoying the Gym Jonathon and thank you for taking the time to give your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Great Gym, I’ve been a member since the start and all the staff are friendly, great classes and equipment is the best in the business.
Appreciated Javed! Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback
Fantastic experience: The best gym I've ever been to.
Wow thank you for the feedback Scarlett!
Fantastic experience: Great modern gym, friendly staff
Brill thanks Liam glad you are enjoying the Gym!
Fantastic experience: I always find a business is as good as it’s staff, if you have good, helpful, friendly, informative, encouraging staff then your business can’t go far wrong and this gym is no different. After four years of personal and health difficulties, coming back to the gym was a huge step and I’m happy to say, I haven’t looked back. I enjoy the morning classes as they are varied and each trainer tailors the class to your needs. The staff are happy to set new programs and show you how to use the equipment, as there’s a huge amount of it! I’ve recently taken on a PT with Jonny who is encouraging, enthusiastic, a great sense of humour which helps and gets the best out of you, even if you want to give up. I don’t find things easy and struggle with pain which made me think joining wasn’t a good idea but I’m happy to say I was so wrong. The people that go are friendly and there’s plenty of parking, good music choice in the classes too!
Awesome feedback thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.. Great that you enjoy everything on offer on Fit4Life and that you feel so comfortable at the Gym!
Fantastic experience: I have just started at Fit4Life and was really nervous about starting a new gym, there was really no need to be, as the staff are really friendly and it isn’t over crowded. The equipment is brilliant and has more than enough to help with my fitness goals. I’m looking forward to getting to some of the classes.
Thanks Lucy, glad you feel comfortable at the Gym and that you feel staff are approachable, we look forward to helping you acheive your goals!
Fantastic experience: I didn’t want to join a gym. I hated gyms. Then I found Fit4Life. Since the first day I have felt welcome, both by the PT’s and the members. The gym has a lot of equipment, loads of space to work out and one of the best all round selection of classes available in this area. There are a lot of them and they cater for all interest and fitness levels. This isn’t a gym for those that like to pose. It’s a gym for all ages, shapes and sizes and it is definitely a gym for those that want to work hard! Quite unexpectedly I’ve also made some great friends as well. So would I recommend Fit4Life. Absolutely. One of the best decisions I’ve made in and long time. Oh and I should mention it’s good value too. I didn’t like gyms. I do now.
That is an amazing review Clare, we are so glad you feel at home training at Fit4Life! Big thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym! So much equipment, loads of brilliant classes. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. I have been a member for a couple of years and have achieved many fitness goals. Best gym I have ever been a member of.

Brilliant feedback thanks Steven!
Fantastic experience: I started 4 months ago to start personal training and haven't looked back. Leah, my trainer, is amazing and the equipment is new and easy to use; she is patient and tailors the sessions to each individual's needs. Good atmosphere and the gym has so many great pieces of equipment. It is well looked after and used by people of all ages and backgrounds. A great place to work out.
So glad we have delivered the results you were looking for Suzie! Thank you for the review

Negative experience: Not bad but staff are a bit rude. Personal trainer asked me for my number...
Hi Fat Cabbage we can clarify unequivocally that you have never been a member of the club, but thank you for the feedback, maybe use your free time to do something productive instead of creating fake profiles All the best- Luke-Director
Negative experience: Owned by harlands group. Google harlands group
Hi Jack, your falsified claims are untrue, I am Luke Hamer owner of Fit4Life and have been for a decade, Harlands are a company that deal with our Direct Debits and nothing else, our system shows you failed to pay your membership fees resulting in Harlands doing their job and chasing you for the outstanding arrears just wanted to clarify that, and just to make you aware falsified claims will not be tolerated and damages will be claimed in the high court if necessary
Positive experience: Excellent gym bit expensive now deals have stopped
Thank you Shaun..appreciated!
Fantastic experience: Great facilities and services
Great review, thanks Aubrey
Negative experience: Used to be a Great gym, helpful staff and a clean facility.
Thanks Haroon!
Negative experience: Nice gym. Shame it's closed through some of most important times (oh and someone nicked my trainers from the locker room but ..)
Hi Ben, thank you for the feedback, just to update you Fit4Life holds no responsibility for lost items on site, your items are your responsibility and should have been placed in a locker and securely locked. in 3 years of business we have never had one incident of theft reported, it is unfair of you to claim somebody has stolen them without clear evidence. And regarding closing at important times I disagree, we have recently expanded the club to a very high standard and added saunas, 200 classes, new studios, extended strength zones and now have over 400 items of state of the art equipment. We did all this in just 8 days and reopened early, nice to see you are still a member and enjoying the facility, we hope your next review is a positive and fair one... Luke- Owner

Fantastic experience: The gym has plenty of good equipment and has a good choice of free weights and bars. It all seems well maintained and in good condition at all times. Me and my gym buddy go regularly and always manage to have a good workout!
Brilliant thank you Aiden!
Fantastic experience: This gym is fantastic. It's more closer to a Pure Gym style than a full on health club but that's a good thing for me who is just after good quality and new equipment. There is plenty of parking space, plenty of equipment even when I come at 5 o clock. Staff are very friendly and there's plenty of classes on offer to. I managed to get on a special offers but even without it it offers good value. Defo worth the 5*
Brill, thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback Kobirul!
Positive experience: Very clean and lots of equipment. Very helpful staff. Only thing is there's almost always a machine out of order and they take a while to be fixed.

We treat all of our members with the upmost respect on every level and we will continue to improve our services moving forward. Kind Regards The Fit4Life Team
