PureGym Woking

Positive experience: Very well equipped and a great atmosphere to start or improve your fitness journey

Positive experience: I quite like the gym. However, about half of the ground surface is made of carpet. That´s pretty far to be healthy in a health centre. Sweat dropping over a carpet is a happy resort for bacteria to grow and multiplicate inside (Bad smell is an evidence). Not the healthiest solution for healthy customers, specially for asthmatic people.

Fantastic experience: Please please do another met con class. it is the best total body workout I've ever done. A mid week class would be amazing

Negative experience: I have been a member of various gyms in many cities around the world. This gym is by far the worst when it comes to gym etiquette. Management is complicit in allowing this gym to have this reputation. Allowing behaviours of kids to come in groups and claim machines for hours either on phones or in packs. And when you ask to work in they refuse. I have been to other PureGyms in London and have not encountered this behaviour, it is particular to this gym as management allows it. Read other comments only to see others feel the same. This location brings the brand down and any serious gym goer, look elsewhere. I usually get my workouts done in an hour. Here it can take 2+ dealing with this behaviour.

Fantastic experience: Been to many Pure Gyms in the country, Woking Gym is the best.

Negative experience: This gym is filthy! Every time a survey is sent out, I make sure to fill it in. However, I often receive a response from the manager that seems to be a standard reply, mentioning the high traffic of members coming in and out of the gym. Unfortunately, I have had to bring my own wipes because the gym is quite dirty. After a class, I wiped the top of the bin, and it was covered in black dirt, which I showed to the fitness instructor, and they said the cleaners weren't very good, and the manager had to do the cleaning. Please view the attached photos. Additionally, there is so much dust in parts of the gym that you can write your name in it.There is also dust so thick in parts of the gym you write your name in it. Was also met with a cloud of dust when accidentally dropping a weight by the leg press machine. This is a health and leisure facility, and as far as I am aware, hygiene is important. Please could you look at cleaning the gym.

Negative experience: I think it’s silly to be charging people who are already gym members an extra £4 per class for yoga and pilates classes.

Fantastic experience: Lots of space, parking and equipment. Overall quality seems very good and equipment is on good condition and clean.

Fantastic experience: Anika is a great sports person and a superb PT. Thanks for your help again.

Positive experience: Great gym but a lot of sitting on equipment messing about with phones.If they trained as much as phone messaging there would be some massive bodybuilders

Fantastic experience: Clean, welcoming and motivating place to be.

Fantastic experience: It is a decent gym and we don't pay a fortune. Everyone is included. Many spaces for parking. It is quite clean ,many options of equipment. I really like going there.

Fantastic experience: Good set up, a lot of equipment, always clean.

Fantastic experience: Wasn't too keen when I first joined. The management were arrogant and not approachable. Recently had a turnaround of staff who are extremely helpful and down to earth. Love the classes

Fantastic experience: AWESOME Saturday morning class (BURN IT) Luke worked us really hard which I absolutely loved! Definitely coming back for more!❤️

Negative experience: WiFi don’t work from one week and stuff tell us they send mail and not able to to reset it … toilet smell bad from the door don’t recommend … ther is just water if you don’t bing your energy drink because all fridges (are WiFi , small update after a month … same problem WiFi don’t work no possible to buy drinks , smell of toilet all around man changing place , becuse don’t separate toilet from changing place and just 2wood plate between disgusting !!! Shame for the money we pay , I came from Wembley and they put me to pay more to access this facility for what ‍♂️

Positive experience: Good gym, extremely overcrowded. Even during off peak hours the amount of people is unreasonable.

Negative experience: Cold showers,not happy.

Fantastic experience: Good

Negative experience: If you are a serious gym goer, do not go to Woking Puregym. Its a social club for teenagers who work out in groups of 3 or 4 hogging machines by not working out on them but instead they talk, scroll on their phones or dump their bags on when others could be using them. I wanted to use a machine that 3 boys were just hanging around not using, for them to say they're using it but spent 10mins sitting there scrolling on their phones, then they did 1 set each and then left - What was the point?! And the gym floor is always dirty. There was literally spit on the floor by the smith squat machine and the carpet always has mud stains (hope its mud). And wrappers of garbarge on the floor. This gym is not serious and the adult serious gym goers no longer come to this gym, but its the only one close for some of us which sucks! This gym will have you want to work out again after leaving due to frustration. Dont waste your money and find another decent gym.

Fantastic experience: The staff make the place excellent. Shout out to Leah

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love love love Zumba by Veronica!!! I would give 10 stars if I could!!!!

Fantastic experience: Great legs,bums and tums class. Loved the music too!

Fantastic experience: Did sams class , enjoyed it and still in pain , definitely recommend pump

Fantastic experience: Another excellent and fun class with Olly Murs (Sam). Very helpful advice too.

Fantastic experience: Callum is amazing. Brilliant instructions, brilliant motivation, brilliant enthusiasm, brilliant guy. Burn It Monday night is the best.

Fantastic experience: Veronica’s Zumba/HIIT dance class brings me so much joy!! I feel like I have worked hard but whilst having fun. Her energy is infectious! Best class ever!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic class with Sam today. He runs a great Pump class. Clear instructions, upbeat and burned almost 500 cals. Always options for beginners to advanced. Fab guy! ☺️ Great class!

Fantastic experience: Great class as always

Fantastic experience: Callum’s Monday Burn It classes are excellent - the highlight of my PureGym week. Wish there were more!

Fantastic experience: The gym class was so motivating through the instructors comments

Fantastic experience: The PureGym has Zumba sessions each week, with the most amazing instructor! A guaranteed great time

Fantastic experience: Amazing Zuma class by Veronica, got me back loving exercise after 5 years, always lots of laughs and energy

Fantastic experience: Great spin class as always

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy the classes! All the instructors are awesome!

Fantastic experience: Love Leah’s step aerobics

Fantastic experience: Did a step class at Woking this evening. The instructor was great and got everyone engaged

Fantastic experience: Leah’s classes never disappoint. Exercises are well demonstrated and explained with options for differentiation. Always friendly and approachable atmosphere in the studio.

Fantastic experience: Classes are great and keep you motivated especially enjoy Strength 45 - thanks Leah for all your hard work.

Fantastic experience: Nice basic gym.

Positive experience: I’ve noticed the past 2 weeks, the toilets have been unclean which is disappointing. The ladies sink is dirty & tissues all over the floor. If only people were sanitary & clean but.. please get some cleaners in :(

Fantastic experience: I have started going to the gym for about a month. I find that it has all the equipment I need for my workouts. It is good value for money and there is free parking available. Wood be a good place for a beginner for sure.

Fantastic experience: 24hour access is great for when Im on nights. Plenty of kit to use and clean

Fantastic experience: Generally good gym for the monthly price

Negative experience: Bought a day pass, never got sent a email with my pin but got a sales receipt. No staff in weight room, had to wait 10 minutes for someone to come and let me out. Dangerous.

Positive experience: Wide Gym but doesn't have a boxing bag...

Positive experience: A good standard gym it's a bit better now it has staff there again

Positive experience: I've been coming to Puregym Woking since 2017, it's a great gym with a variety of well run classes. I've tried a few classes at different Puregyms and Woking's are the best. However, I've been really disappointed by the changes to the class timetable recently and was gutted to hear that the Combat class on Tuesday evening run by David Lambe was being cancelled. This class has been by far my favourite class at Puregym. David teaches combat technique, runs a great warm up and the class includes conditioning plus group/social exercises. Not only is this class fun and social, it's super challenging and I've seen the most benefit physically (and mentally) by coming to this class. After looking at the timetable, I couldn't see another class that is taking it's place - please could this class be kept? I would give a 5* review but had to bring it down to 3* because I'm gutted that this class has been cancelled.

Positive experience: Pretty good gym. Can get very busy but overall does the job

Fantastic experience: Great stuff and thankfully use the equipment too so they keep it in good working order

Positive experience: Extremely disappointed with the removal of the cleaning stations (disinfectant and wipes). Most people don't use a towel in the gym. Gym guidelines say you are meant to clean the equipment when you are done using it. With what? Am I meant to place my towel over someone else's sweat puddle? Edit:cleaning stations reinstated, happy with that.

Positive experience: Clean and we'll equipped

Negative experience: This review is about senior management at Pure Gym. The staff at my local gym in Woking are fantastic. The gym is beginning to get rather tatty due to a lot of the machines getting quite old. The situation has significantly been aggravated by senior management having decided to remove the cleaning stations (The local staff are very unhappy about this although it is an extra chore to keep the stations topped up). Not only does this not help with the general appearance but also the safety and pleasantness of using the gym as people are expected to bring their own cleaning materials (How clean and effective are those?). It’s winter now but there will definitely be more sweating in summer and it already is not good to arrive at a sweaty machine! Do I really want to wipe off someone else’s sweat with my towel? COVID is still about and there are other skin infections such as fungal and viral (herpes) which would survive on warm moist seats, but the biggest problem is just the aesthetics of it all. I’d happily pay 50p more for my membership which must be all it would cost as a lot of people do not bother to clean even when cleaning stations are available. Come on management. I notice the gym group in Woking have nice cleaning stations.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience

Fantastic experience: I love Pure Gym, and then Annie started coaching us; and now I’m obsessed with the gym! Her encouragement to support each other in classes, the fun and the singing, the high impact and her professional attention to our form and progress will truly keep members coming!

Fantastic experience: Always revitalising, enough equipment, lots of smiling staff and public. Ambience is nice.

Fantastic experience: Great value for money. Helpful staff. Well equipped.

Fantastic experience: Joined a short while ago, and so far so good. Friendly staff, good facilities and a nice variety of classes. It does get a bit busy at times, but it's that time of year. Good range of equipment and enough cardio equipment for a quick turnaround time when it is busy. All in all, recommendable!

Fantastic experience: I love coming to Pure Gym in Woking. If you get a chance sign up for the burn it class with Annie and LBT with Callum great instructors and keep classes interesting and fun!

Positive experience: It's ok gym , but stinks of old sweat, if ur disabled u cant guarantee getting a disabled bay to park in , as anyone parks in the 4 spaces they have there , the staff aren't interested in this either .

Fantastic experience: Lovely gym with friendly staff. Evenings can get busy but that doesn't stop me from coming

Negative experience: Went to attend last night however when i arrived this 24/7 gym was clearly closed. Pulled up and noticed a sign on the door saying there is an issue with the fire system in the building. Other then the fact i drove all the way to the gym that evening i had no idea that the gym was actually not 24/7 now and is only open during staffed hours. This isnt the first time this 24/7 gym hasnt been 24/7. Considering how much membership is paid montly its seems to be closed an awful lot for one reason or another.

Positive experience: Versus the Clapham PureGym (my home gym), this is like heaven. It gets busy at peak times, like all budget gyms, but there's usually something free to use as long as you flex your workouts. There should be more leg equipment though for a gym of this size.

Fantastic experience: I recently joined the gym for some of my training sessions. It has everything I need, from CV, machines and the functional area is quite good! Variety of equipment, free weights and even when it's crowded, it's comfortable to move around and can find alternatives if what you want to use is not available at that moment. Very happy so far!!

Fantastic experience: Good gym with plenty of equipment and lots of free parking. Can't complain.

Negative experience: Small ,always overcrowded, not many options in terms of machines

Positive experience: Male lockers need replacing and better air quality is needed in the way of extraction

Positive experience: *UPDATED* I enjoy using the gym and the equipment is good. My gripe is the middle-aged guys who routinely occupy the gym equipment for 20-30 minutes a piece. I always wait patiently aside for them to finish. As soon as they notice I'm there, they actually spend even longer messing around doing more and more sets with low-effort, deliberately to cause disruption. As a young man, I am very busy and always abide by gym rules, sharing equipment where possible, etc. They routinely hogs machines, makes unnecessary grunting yet displaying very minimal effort in each set. The first repetition is no easier than his last. I usually see them using the same machine for sometimes 5-10 sets for 30 minutes with long breaks, low effort. They need to be taught how to train effectively, before they get injured. My other gripe is that many of the men smash weights down which is extremely distracting in the gym. I live with autism and having sensory issues with loud noise. They are breaking machines which contributes to the frequency of which the engineers have to come out to fix them. There is an older lady who constantly brushes by me when training and doesn't respect personal space. This has happened frequently enough to the point I've had to put a jumper and drinks bottle around me to mark my territory, which is ridiculous but something I need to do to ensure my safety when resistance training. If these issues could be addressed and the gym staff would inforce them it would be much appreciated. As a larger gentleman, I will appear egotistical and arrogant if I approach these guys. These are gym rules which are shown on the walls which should be reinforced as much as possible. Please resolve this, and give them reminders of gym etiquette and I will gladly upgrade my rating of the gym to 5*. Many thanks in advance!

Positive experience: My gym. Good value for money and the interior revamp is great. It does get really busy at peak times, but which gym doesn't! There's something for everyone, whatever your fitness levels.

Fantastic experience: Good gym, cheap and 24/7 what more could you ask for.

Negative experience: On my visit return visit to your gym I went to purchase a bottle of highland spring water from one of your vending machines it turned out to be leaking I told one of your staff members who was very unhelpful and told me there was nothing she could do as there was no manager then I accidentally spilt some on the floor was she was very rude and spoke in an aggressive manner towards me she telling me not to spil it in the floor how can I not if it's leaking very disappointing return visit

Positive experience: Great gym, but today 1 disinfectant station had hardly any spray disinfectant cleaner in it @ 9.00am this morning This encourages people to not wipe down equipment before and after use Needs to be regularly checked

Positive experience: Recently came back to PureGym following refurb, enjoying a late night session. Would love to have some boxing equipment for some good HIIT training. Edit: Leg press has been broken for a week...

Fantastic experience: Just changed Gyms to Pure Gym, initially went for a look a few weeks ago and couldn’t believe how clean and well organised it was, a little further for me to go than my old Gym but well worth it, keep up the great work.

Fantastic experience: Recently Revamped, looks new and great equipment

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout. Equipment is plentiful and well spaced out. Plenty of room to shower and change and the staff are all friendly and approachable. I would recommend anyone to give it a try

Fantastic experience: Is not bad gym, it would be perfect if the big car park would be open on night time but you can't have everything

Positive experience: It’s ok not all that, I think boxing bags should be put into the gym and some new equipment

Fantastic experience: Honestly, for the price and easy access it’s not too shabby. Yeah it’ll be packed when you wanna go but they just did an upgrade at this PureGym and it’s actually sick. Way better than how it was before.

Negative experience: Filthy mens changing room/bathroom. Spoke to the manager and was dismissed. No apology or plan of action. Another reason I’ll be leaving when the The Gym opens in town.

Negative experience: The gym is just too busy, I have gone during peak times and early mornings to try and make the membership work. I have used the app to try and track when the gym is busy but when I get there another 10 people are in the gym who had the same idea as me. It makes working out impossible. There’s too many members. Also the gym is often unstaffed which I find dangerous. I would spend more money and go elsewhere if I’m being honest. I’ve cancelled my membership already. The gym is clean and the equipment is good. Maybe if you go at midnight or 4am you me be able to use it.

Negative experience: First time using this gym as I was working locally. Considering it costs more per month than my local Pure Gym it is definitely not worth it. The changing area/toilets were dirty and the water fountain and Yanga Sports water machine could do with cleaning too. When I returned the following day they still hadn't been cleaned. Considering the way the world has been for the last couple of years you'd have thought cleaning would be a higher priority. Alot of the equipment has seen better days and obviously hasn't been maintained properly for some time. There were signs saying the gym is going to be upgraded so hopefully the standards of cleanliness will be too!

Positive experience: It's a good gym, but it's a little small compared to the number of customers it gets

Positive experience: Nice gym with good equipment. Just always too busy so don't go there much now

Negative experience: Overcrowded. 10-15 minute waits for benches and machines.

Fantastic experience: Great arrangement of space, always clean, staff very friendly and helpful.

Negative experience: Gym is extremely packed making it almost impossible to get on weight benches or equipment, weights missing and not returned to racks, quite a few pieces of equipment broken. Have noticed a few times that the hand sanitiser and cleaning stations have been completely empty! On a positive note the cardio areas are pretty good and changing rooms are aren’t too bad. Also classes seem pretty good so far

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed the gym lost of equipments, PT are friendly, clean and tidy. We are very happy with pure gym

Negative experience: Not enough benches or weight machines for the volume of people. Plenty of Cardio equipment however. Gym appears clean and fairly modern.

Fantastic experience: Best equipped gym in Woking for the price - even for myself for competitive powerlifting. Cleanliness levels a lot better than most local venues, thoroughly recommend. P.s. After recent refurbishments, even better setup!

Fantastic experience: Always a pleasure to train at pureGym meeting friendly people do your work peacefully.

Fantastic experience: PureGym is fantastic. You have everything you need for a good workout along with drinks and food. If you are looking at going to a gym and don't want to spend a lot of money on a membership PureGym is the best place.

Positive experience: Good gym, gets busy in the evenings between 5-9 otherwise good. Lots of equipment and classes available.

Fantastic experience: Spacious, clean, good air conditioning, new equipment & great staff!

Negative experience: General bad odour in the gym, all the kit is aged and poorly maintained. Squat racks in particular are awful Especially annoying as the gym is on the more expensive end of puregyms offerings.

Positive experience: The pure gym is excellent! Various modern equipment on which you can do any type of training. Free parking but at the back closes at 10pm, and if you forget to take it off, it will stay there, because after it's locked there are no employees to open it, and once I forgot and had to pay 100 pounds, , but other than that, it's excellent gym.

Fantastic experience: I was at the Purwgym Woking over the weekend it was Clean and tidy gym. Kudos to the weekend cleaner

Negative experience: Recently joined and chuffed that it’s close by and open 24/7. I’ve come over from one of Puregym’s chain competitors and I’m disappointed. There’s are treadmills that need a service and need maintenance, there’s broken/missing chair pins on machines where you’d hope to train your back but doing your shoulders - Out of two weeks, no ones fixed it? Place has potential but you need to look after it PureGym.

Negative experience: What you’re reading hasn’t been approved by Pure Gym because apparently it contains a sensitive content: “The gym has seen both better and worse days. It’s just on average level now, nothing exciting about it. They’ve cut down car park opening hours throughout the whole week, there’s always a broken piece of equipment, and missing carabiners or load pins. Less cleaning stations across the gym - is the pandemic over yet? No? So how about putting them back in some visible and more attended areas. Not that I need them but I haven’t seen a single PT today after spending 1,5hrs . Used to be my gym to go but I’m considering switching to another. Ending on a positive note I love it for being open 24/7. PS. Place suffers from terrible A/C …

Fantastic experience: Never too busy. Might need to change workout routine at peak times but plenty if machines and floorspace.
