Core Gym

Fantastic experience: Been coming here for over a month now and it's a solid gym. Good equipment and facilities, staff are friendly. I've gone at various times and have always been able to use the equipment I've wanted to use. Don't really understand the negative comments, as I've gone to all the gyms in Leamington and it is by far the best, maybe if you're comparing to David Lloyd fair enough but this place is half the price monthly. A recommendation from me would be to convert the steam room to a much colder room or have an ice bowl for after the sauna

Negative experience: One of. If not the worst gym Ive ever been to. Overcrowded. Poor equipment in the gym. It doesn’t even have enough barbells or plated to support the amount of members. The squat rack is on FOAM PADDING. That is just asking for rolled ankles and knee injuries. And now just to top it off, the long door handle on the male change has come off in my hand and injured my knee, no member of staff asked if I was ok or needed anything when I told them. Not impressed at all

Fantastic experience: Great gym with friendly staff. Well equipped for any style of workout.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. I have been using it since 2018. I love the swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna in this gym. Also, the exercise classes are fantastic and there is something for everyone.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing gym. All the staff are friendly and their encouragement is fantastic. The classes are brilliant. I personally was doing stretch/move, intro to yoga, bootcamp, spin and hiit classes which I loved. Well worth the money each month.

Fantastic experience: Really good atmosphere. Good sesh. Loved it

Fantastic experience: Professional massage and acupressure from Jenna, I'm struggling for a long time to find a good massage therapist to help me with stuff muscles and tension. Jenna helped with this.

Positive experience: Staff are friendly. Facilities are relatively clean. It can get crowded at times.

Positive experience: The gym is tinyyy, they only have a few cables, 1 squat rank, 3 benches… the facilities try to give off a spa vibe but in reality it’s grubby.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great facilities especially the pool area. Only issue is the booking system for the classes is full up for weeks/months ahead of time so they need to put a limit to how far ahead you can book and stop people from booking and not turning up to classes. Other than that, an excellent place to work out.

Positive experience: Friendly staff and open plan. Quite a narrow range of gym equipment and packed into a small room. Wish there were more options like a calf raise. Also seems to be very busy with little room for movement. Quite pricey for what is on offer.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in town, staff are friendly, there is everything you need for a decent workout. Spa area is very relaxing, and there is a class for everyone.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities and staff

Fantastic experience: Great facilities, friendly staff, good discount for JLR staff. Highly recommend.

Positive experience: Crowded.

Fantastic experience: I think this gym is great! Has a decent gym, the pool is big enough, good sawna/steama I believe every body has a different experience at a certain hour or day! I've been when no one there! I've been when its full etc.. Good little gym.

Negative experience: Memberships have been massively oversold. No chance of ever getting on a bench or cable past 3pm. Very expensive too.

Fantastic experience: Great gym!

Fantastic experience: This gym with a sauna is a fantastic place to pursue your fitness goals. It offers a clean, well equipped and inviting space for a rewarding workout experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch fitness facility.

Fantastic experience: Great good staff helpful and good prices

Negative experience: I think everything could be great here with just more attention to cleanliness. The showers need cleaning. And the worst part is how much dirt there always is in the jacuzzi. Maybe be more strict on people washing before getting in? I've seen so much dirt in the bottom of there that I can't go into it. Having said that the classes I've been to here are really great and I do love the pool.

Negative experience: Went with a friend for a swim and sauna couple of weeks ago. Got day pass which costed us £25 in total for 45 mins. Couldn’t believe how filthy this place has become. Swimming pool area was dirty, could see mould and paint peeling off the walls. Floor in sauna was dirty and full or water. Steam room was out service. Will never be back again.

Fantastic experience: Great gym every you need, steam room sauna and good size pool.

Negative experience: i’m a member of the gym for five months , I was on the chek in then she was so rude with me then she’s done twice in this five months ,im only come twice a week and people Ben that much rude to u , as I’m not gonna come back any mor , good luck to you

Fantastic experience: Great gym, the manager Elleanor has done a lot to improve this place from its days as Pure Gym. TJ, Dan, Ellie and all the other staff are friendly and welcoming and give great advice making it well worth the money If i wasn’t leaving the area I’d happily stay. I wish them all the best!

Positive experience: Great classes, lots of personal attention from instructors and a good social atmosphere. I've made many friends here! Spin and HIIT are particularly good, look out for Jenna and eliska and mark as they are very fun and knowledgeable. The pool has nice dark lighting and lounge chairs so you can feel like you're at a spa. The jacuzzi can be cold, but when it's hot it's great! The sauna is also good. The steam room not so much! The showers have timers on them which isn't the best. Great smoothie bar out the front. The gym itself has two rooms and all kinds of equipment and machines. You'll find whatever you're looking for. All in all a welcoming place to unwind and energise too!

Positive experience: Good gym. Needs money spent on jacuzzi and mens showers poor

Fantastic experience: Nice gym with pool

Fantastic experience: Great gym overall. Friendly, clean and nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend a visit to form your own opinion about the facility.

Fantastic experience: One the best steam room I’ve been in and also have technogym gear which is the best. Staff always helpful. Only downside is parking but great place to go for a session

Negative experience: Over priced at almost £60, extremely overcrowded, continually being dripped on due to a leaky roof (only happens when it’s raining so not condensation), the environment generally is too humid (please sort out the air con), old lockers half of which don’t work or have the numbers rubbed off, poor opening times and they don’t let you in an hour before closure. The facilities are good at least and the PTs very good. The worst thing though is that I’ve handed these comments into their suggestion box but they do absolutely nothing about it. Why even bother having it?

Negative experience: Filthy to the core. It's always a mess. The equipments are everywhere. Good luck finding the weight plate you need. No visible signs of cleaning attempts on anything what so ever. The yoga mats are soaked in sweat. (Cheap sponge mats btw. )Ventilation in the area is so terrible and you cannot escape from the smell. The locker rooms are extremely disgusting. Mold in the showers..wet and dirty floors, you can see it in the pictures. Some shower cubicles don't even have a door. If you have a decent respect for yourself and still have your sense of smell, I don't suggest you working out there. I wasn't even there in the peak hours btw.

Fantastic experience: John is a fantastic physio

Positive experience: I don't see why there's so many bad reviews about the staff here? I absolutely love it here and I have a positive experience as it the staff every single time I've been. I was very anxious and nervous about starting the gym however the staff made me feel comfortable from the start even showing me around. I mainly go for the pool. It's the nicest pool I've ever been to too, It would be nice if I could go during the day instead of water babies being on every day but there is still plenty of other times to go. I'm still skeptical to try the gym so I cannot comment on that. The changing rooms are clean, I do wish there was a singular cubical or two so that I could change in private but Noones there to judge you! It's honestly the best gym I've been to

Fantastic experience: Great clean gym, very nice people fantastic facilities, have tried other gyms and definitely the best gym In Leamington!

Fantastic experience: My husband and I have a membership and we love it, it is always clean and not too busy when we go to be fair, I love the pool and jacuzzi... the lift room and cardio room is very good too :)

Negative experience: By far the worst gym I've ever been to. Ridiculously expensive, very small and crowded, cardio room is very stuffy, sometimes its hard to breath inside. But the worst part is how dark and 'boxed' the gym feels, there are no windows at all, the walls and ceiling are black, the lighting is not sufficient - feels terrible when exercising.

Fantastic experience: Very nice worth for money

Fantastic experience: Clean with friendly helpful staff and good equipment

Negative experience: This could be a decent gym... Unfortunately almost always busy and sometimes you have to wait in the queue to use the treadmill, there's not enough weights too, or even space to do your own exercise routine. Additionally the gym closes very early, once I came on Sunday at 7pm which is an hour before closing and they declined me entry because they have already closed the system... this is very unprofessional and annoying considering the high price of the gym (55 per month). Lockers are small and often dirty. The showers drains are often stuck and the water goes aways very slowly. The most irritating thing overall is that the pool most of the time is impossible to use for swimming because of children's swimming hours (Mon, Wed, Fr, Sat, Sun - 10am-4pm), water babies (Mon, Wed, Fr, Sat) and aqua classes on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays... In the evenings it's extremely busy and pool also closes and hour earlier than the gym, it's worth to add that it's also very shallow (just 1.2m) and short. The fitness classes are always fully booked so buying a monthly membership you have no chance of getting to any of them as the booking opens a month earlier. I chose that gym because of its location but unfortunately is definitely not worth the money. I did not know about the classes in the swimming pool as they are not listed on the website so I just found out by going and was very disappointed that couldn't use the pool because of the class that was not listed on the app or the schedule in the website. They have a separate paper plan for the pool schedule inside. I do not recommend, it would be worth the irritation because of its location if it costed 20 per month not 55 which is outrageous considering everything mentioned above.

Fantastic experience: Great location & equipment

Fantastic experience: Great gym in the heart of Leamington Spa, the facilities are very nice and people are very friendly.

Positive experience: I enjoy the set up of this gym, and when it’s quiet it’s really great. I’m finding it difficult to justify the cost against accessibility of equipment, though. I go to run and then lift - but there’s only one squat rack, and I’ve often ended up walking around like an idiot trying to find things to do because it’s so busy that there isn’t even a free treadmill to hop on to pass the time. Essentially, I’ve ended up leaving the gym more stressed out than I was before entering, which obv isn’t fab. Aside from that, staff are great and the coffee bar is really good - I just think it could do with an extension of the weights room.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym

Negative experience: I wish I could put zero stars. I got pregnant right at the start of my membership (2 months and half) and because of problems with my pregnancy I couldn’t go to the gym so I’ve asked to freeze my membership. They didn’t even consider my request. Horrible customer service.

Negative experience: Its Overcrowded most of the time, and equipment is limited. Been denied entry at 9:02 by the gym manager because of the 1 hour before closing rule (which is stupid given the gym closes earlier than other gyms at this price range).

Fantastic experience: Great for a nice relaxing place good gym

Positive experience: Fantastic little gym steam room sauna nice pool not busy a day pass great to relaxing

Negative experience: Just been laughingly told by reception woman that they are no longer taking people’s temperatures. She said because the thermometers don’t work half the time and people find them annoying. Having to stand still for five seconds to have your temperature taken is annoying???! Try being seriously sick and trapped on a ventilator for days on end then maybe they will know what annoying is

Fantastic experience: Love this place.... Great gym

Fantastic experience: Went to the gym for the first time today using a day pass and we were so impressed! Pool, jacuzzi, steam room and sauna all really lovely and relaxing. Plenty of space in the pool and gym. Can’t wait to go again!

Fantastic experience: Was recommended this gym by a friend for a quiet swim with my baby and I definitely got that. £9.99 for a day pass which I thought was reasonable! I didn’t want a loud busy leisure center for her first swim. It was lovely and peaceful, polite staff, they stored my pushchair for the duration of our visit. Changing rooms were clean, couldn’t fault a thing. We will be back thank you!

Fantastic experience: Clean, professional and friendly staff

Negative experience: one word....baby aqua 3 mornings a week with the leader of the class screetching twinkle twinkle little star at the top of her lungs the babies and mums were the quietest there.... no warning that the teacher was going to scream like that for 2 hours really really miserable time had in the pool went in without a headache now spending the afternoon on my bed with a migrain.

Negative experience: The gym actually closes at 8:30 not 9:30 as that is when last entry is. Staff do not treat you in a way you would expect paying a much higher membership price. The sauna/steam room when working is also in need of work. Not worth paying for these extras considering the gym is small and often very busy. Just use pure gym unless you are desperate to use a small pool!

Positive experience: Good over all gym showers could be private and maybe if they had a little more space

Fantastic experience: Well Equipped Gym, Great Pool, Friendly and helpful staff, look forward to getting back.

Fantastic experience: Great town centre gym with good facilities, equipment and staff. Refurbishment looks fantastic too. Well done!

Fantastic experience: fantastic experience, wonderful staff and world class equipment LDN GOONER

Negative experience: Under equipped, extremely judgmental. Not what's needed for a good training atmosphere. More of a cult. .to the people recently leaving good reviews. I feel bad that you comfortably admit to fitting in, in this type of atmosphere and behaviour.

Fantastic experience: Only went to this gym to see the physio John Ahmed....suffering with plantar faciatus been in agony first treatment got me walking with no limp. Looking forward to follow up treatment. Highly recommend John for any physio needs.

Fantastic experience: Love the brand new equipment. The gym staff are great at helping with anything you need. The new cafe also serves some great protein shakes. Would defo recommend.

Fantastic experience: Equipment all new, social distancing in place. overall condition great.

Negative experience: Recent change of owners. But continued poor maintenance of pool and area around it. Water cold and too shallow. Jacuzzi broken. Such things are normal. Sauna and steam room closed because of covid but didn't work reliably before covid. Gym good

Fantastic experience: Really nice gym Good atmosphere Great equipment Lovely pool

Fantastic experience: Great gym and facilities great staff very friendly and first rate advice
