Thanks Stephen, comments very much appreciated and your always welcome. Thanks, Neil
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going since it opened and Ive already written a review many years ago. But one review every ten years seems about right. Lancing is strangely blessed with the best gym in Sussex. Something for everyone. Neil is Zeus and Charlie is king! He’ll spot your power lifts professionally and confidently. All the staff are practically perfect. The gym is the place for beginners with allot of good PTs to choose from, whilst catering to experienced powerlifters, bodybuilders, boxers, and kick-boxers. You’ll be happy to find this gem and once you do you’ll never let it go. I love this place and I hope it one day reaches 100 year anniversary.
Thank you very much for the fantastic review, hearing this is very heart warming and makes the hard work worth while. Thank you again, Neil
Fantastic experience: Working away often it can be a nightmare to get a decent gym. Having visited southcoast gym today I can honestly say what a great place staff are really welcoming and make you feel at home just in general. Really appreciate and hope to be back again next time I’m in the area

Fantastic experience: A Great First Impression As a first-time visitor to South Coast Gym, I was pleasantly surprised. The gym is spacious and well-organized, with plenty of equipment to choose from. What truly sets this gym apart is the friendly and knowledgeable staff. Charlie, in particular, was incredibly helpful and welcoming, making my first experience a positive one. I look forward to returning to this gym and continuing my fitness journey.
Thanks Oliver, I'll pass on your comments to Charlie, good luck with the fitness journey mate.

Negative experience: - Be sure to ask for various plans that are available. If you pay for a normal membership but are actually a student. They wont refund you the difference. - Female manager is not a nice person, doesn’t care what problem you have and is very rude - The gym has a 2 floor tunnel system, only 2 ways to get to either side of the gym. If they have classes in one room and you want to pass through quickly to get to another room, the female boxing coach will stop you and make you walk all the way around the other side of the gym unnecessarily. An aggressive and very rude woman on a power trip is not something you need in your life. - Gym is well equipped, its a shame that the staff as so unpleasant that it makes you want to change. If the staff treated their customers like adults it would be a great environment.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area
Thank you Brad.

Fantastic experience: great gym, good atmosphere, nice cafe. plenty of onsite parking!What more could you want
Negative experience: I am in complete shock, deeply disturbed and appalled by my experience at this gym. Not only did they allow racial discrimination and Anti-Arab racism to flourish within their walls, but they also shamefully sided with the perpetrators, banning the victim with no evidence to back up their claim, instead of holding the perpetrators accountable. This abhorrent behavior is utterly unacceptable and has caused immeasurable trauma. Legal action will be pursued, and I will make sure to spread awareness of this injustice on social media and through local news channels. Avoid this gym at all costs unless you condone bigotry and discrimination.
Sadly we do not accept any behaviour of intimidation of other members and making them feel awkward when they are trying to get changed.
Has nothing to do with discrimination but all to do with you making the male members feel uncomfortable while changing and showering.
Fantastic experience: Great gym with parenting good quality equipment and a lovely friendly vibe
Fantastic experience: Great gym full of gear. Nice big free weight area, lots of different machines. Nice and friendly staff and a great little cafe where you can just chill after your workout. Sells protein shakes etc too. Spotlessly clean throughout. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: A great place to work out, good equipment and facilities, all you need to keep fit and at reasonable prices, good friendly atmosphere,
Fantastic experience: 5 weeks in after a few years break from lifting- So far so good. Great bunch, variety of machines, and quality free weights and plate machines. Boxing gym with tonnes of bags and multiple rooms for different forms of fitness that can help make the gym feel less busy and more focused. Quality cafe with good coffee and supplements. Hopefully remain my new fitness home.
Negative experience: DO NOT USE THIS GYM THEY TAKE YOUR MONEY AND THEN RFUSE TO LET YOU USE THE FACILITIES

Hi Gemma,
Thank you for your kind review, very much appreciated.
Rgds, SCG
Thank you for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: Great friendly gym with brilliant staff. Having trained in a number of top gyms throughout the country for strength training, South Coast is amongst the best. A lot of the gyms I've enjoyed training at have great facilities and good equipment, but are let down by a lack of attention to detail. South Coast gets pretty much everything bang on. It's OCD level clean. It's well stocked with supplements and apparel. It has knowledgeable, welcoming staff. And, a good range of kit. One of the best independent gyms in the country.
Thanks Josh very much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym,very well equipped. Friendly enough but you get left alone to enjoy your workout .

Fantastic experience: Fantastic local gym. Really friendly and welcoming staff and the area is very well maintained with tons of equipment barbells, benches, dumbells etc. Upstairs is a studio space with mats and a boxing area.

Fantastic experience: Great gym.
Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve ever been a part of. Have been working out here for a few months now and the guys and gals at SCG make this gym a cut above the rest. The boxing team and coaches are fantastic, as are the gym staff. Spent 30 mins this morning with Ash who came and took time out to help tweak my benching form. If you’re looking for a gym with a really good community build on it, this is it.
Fantastic experience: The man on the front desk was an absolute star made Me and my son feel at ease when we attended a boxing class the coach was everything you would want from a coach knowledgable friendley an good at giving an encouraging push when needed we boath enjoyed it looking forward to going back when were in the area again

Fantastic experience: I am a new member. I suffer from big social anxiety, i walk through the doors to smiles, nods, just feels welcoming. Great staff. Great equipment. looking forward to do the strongman events they hold too. recommend coming and joining.
Thanks Ed!
Positive experience: Really good
Fantastic experience: Walking into a gym, overweight, into a sea of beautiful, crafted individuals can be intimidating. It's what put me off going to the gym for years. But there's a real friendly atmosphere at South Coast, I'm always greeted with a smile and I feel comfortable there. I go to train with a PT but everyone who either trains or works there are so helpful and cheer you on when they can see you struggling. Everyone just wants to train hard and have fun!
