Next Gen Fitness

Fantastic experience: Some of the reviews put me off but I'm glad I checked it out myself. The best gym option in Potters Bar right now - cheaper than alternatives, doesn't get too crowded, and has everything you need in a gym. Music is actually decent as well - I've found that I don't even listen to my own playlist half the time. At one point the machine shoulder press had broken but it was completely fixed by the time I came for my next session, so there is good maintenance, contrary to what is implied in other reviews. Not dirty or anything. Would recommend.

Negative experience: Equipement broken, bars are bent, one of the dirtiest gyms I've been to. Often no soap in bathroom, water fountains either not working or spraying water everywhere, mould in ceilings, uneven floor in squat racks.

Negative experience: Good gym albeit alot of dated equipment and the venue is in need of some refurbishment. Some items of gym kit will be broken for a long while which considering some machines there are only one of at a time is not acceptable. The staff here make the place, they are always very warm and friendly. Also I'm aware the gym is on what appear to be school grounds so I presume there is some agreement with the school around its students using the gym but on the occasions I have been there with kids present they don't appear to have any knowledge of the equipment they are using and if anything cause obstruction and are constantly messing around. Kids are kids at the end of the day, but this is a gym and paying clients don't want children running around when they are trying to work out. *edit* having revisited this gym again some months after posting the above review there are the same issues. Mould, leaks and what looks like some sort of growth in the toilets and the equipment very dirty and not maintained. This place is an accident waiting to happen.

Fantastic experience: Real strength training gym!

Negative experience: Not sure how the gym is still open? It’s absolutely disgusting and filthy, I used to come here everyday and NEVER saw a single person cleaning the gym. Rubbish from week to week would still be on the floor and not picked up. The equipment is dusty and moldey and hardly ever works , the floor is filthy - £35 a month for this gym is disgusting , it makes you wonder where all the money from the memberships is going too , spend a little more and go to a different gym it’s not good for your health to work out in such a disgusting environment - would be zero stars if I could !!

Fantastic experience: Darren make this gym amazing experience..painful but good....some great equipment

Negative experience: Less of a gym, more of a joke. Most of the equipment is broken, Olympic bars bent, weight stacks missing pins, heating on constantly, mushrooms growing on the floor and window ledge, water leaking from ceilings, lights hanging out of sockets. Basically a musty, mouldy, dangerous joke of a gym.

Negative experience: Will be reporting Next Gen to trading standards as for over a year of contact I have not been able to cancel my membership and ignored all attempts to do so.

Fantastic experience: Great price. Gym isn't particularly fancy and a little worn out. Leaks in ceiling, lockers broken etc. But im giving it a 5 star review. Because it does what it's supposed to do! All the equipment you need to build muscle, incredibly quiet even in January, nice vibe, members are chilled and friendly. I love going!

Negative experience: A lot of broken machines. Not worth the money

Negative experience: Machines out of order, leaking ceilings. Makes you wonder where the fee's from gym goers is going every month if it isn't into the business.

Positive experience: Plenty of mechanics but has gone down hill since Karl sold gym. No classes and the sauna has been ripped out. Not many of the lockers work

Negative experience: Very old and dirty

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff, great gym. On site there is fantastic Kick boxing venue and beautifully layed out RGBJJ (jiu jitsu club).

Positive experience: This is a great 'no frills' gym. All the equipment you could ever want for a great work out although some of the equipment has seen better days. Usually pretty quiet so never a wait for equipment.

Positive experience: Went for the thai boxing. Great fun.

Negative experience: A small gym not much in there and of course over priced

Fantastic experience: Great gym, allowing to work out without having to wait for equipment. Value for money.

Negative experience: Typical weaselly tactics of making it difficult to cancel membership and avoiding attempts to contact, then of course it goes straight to the debt collectors. Avoid if you value your credit rating.

Fantastic experience: Good gym also
