Reviews of JD Gyms Cardiff
S. H.
Friendly trainers and gym staff. The gym is always immaculate and welcoming. The kit is good quality and love their functional area, even have a tyre flip machine which I have never seen before. Went to Chanel's circuit class which was super varied and fun. Charlotte's spin class was a killer but still suitable for everyone. Just good all round! Massively recomend 🙌👊
R. R.
This place is absolutely huge in terms of space it beats other gyms hands down . It will be interesting to see how they will compete against the gyms but for the money £20 a month classes included thats a hell of a good deal.
H. K.
Great gym, very clean and great facilities. Love the sauna and would be great if that was always open but I understand. Really enjoyed my visits here and so glad that the gym is now open 24/7.
If there were better adjustable height power racks that would be fine but everything else is really nice and the choice of machines is great!
C. P.
My favourite gym I've ever trained in. Loads of quality kit and even has a sauna! Staff are cool and easy to talk too :)
G. H.
Good sized gym with a nice variety of machines and free weights. Generally very clean, tidy and a nice atmosphere to work out in. Only problems I have is the equipment takes forever to be repaired/replaced if it breaks and the opening hours on weekends are quite short. I also wish they would crack down on people being overly loud and hogging multiple machines because occasionally these can be very frustrating, but other than that it is a good value for money gym that has all you need to start working out.
P. K.
City centre gym, 24/7 and with a sauna. Not bad for £20.
T. B.
Good gym and vibes just always hot in there. Sweating buckets pretty much everyday I’m in there no ac in Ac but one corner, and it’s bearly on
M. N. L.
Great location, plenty of free weights training space.
Dear Jd staff, can you turn you music volume down a bit during midnight, please? Much appreciate.
C. J.
Excellent gym with great equipment. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff and the gym is always immaculate.
E. H.
Good gym overall, nice feeling equipment and good free weight space. Only gripe is it doesn’t have a hack squat of any kind
D. J.
Extremely busy at peak times, rest of time is ok.. but now it's 24 hours it's awesome, it's great working out late..or in night or real early ..gym always has few people in there but going when it's very quiet is great,
J. W.
The gym is a great size. Super clean and well spaced out full of great equipment. I’ve had the pleasure of working with PT David Cummings. Super helpful and patient. Showing me how to workout more effectively and efficiently. Every goal we set we smashed and more. Not only do you see improvement in your body but you also see improvement in your mental health and confidence and I can’t thank David enough. I would really recommend this gym to anyone near the city centre of Cardiff as it’s super affordable and has a great atmosphere
S. P.
Love this gym!! Amazing facilities available, really clean and tidy and also has a wide range if equipment to use. I didn't know how to use any of it back last year, however i got amazing advise and training from PT Sarah. She helped support me while training like helping me lose weight, eat the right foods and how to use the equipment correctly. I would really recommend having Sarah as a PT as training with her is fun and relaxed but she'll always motivate you and help push you towards reaching your goal! :)
S. N.
The staff is awesome. Down to earth people who are happy to help and keeping the facilities clean and safe.
Specially Relle. Went to her body pump class on Tuesday and I am still sore after two days. She was great!
A. L.
Great gym, I trained here pre covid and couldn’t wait to get back into it when they opened. Its amazing to see the staff constantly cleaning and making sure other gym goers are doing so too. They will quickly put your mind at ease about how clean a gym can be during a pandemic!
The staff are brilliant and always with smiles on their faces, particularly Sarah! She is so active in and around the gym and made figuring out the scary world of weights a whole lot easier! I love that she is so active of social media with her clients and encourages us to get up and go! Excellent PT and member of staff to have around!
G.
I love this gym and it has the best trainers in it. Kennedy (and previously Riccardo when he worked here) are TOP level trainers and I would highly recommend Ken for anyone looking for personal training in JD Gyms. He's truly talented, he's someone who makes working out fun and sets achievable goals for you. He will always make you smile on a down day and his energy is fantastic. I have noticed amazing improvements in my body since working with Ken. I also love the gym atmosphere - made so many friends here and everyone is extremely friendly. Thank you to the amazing staff, in particular Ken, for making the experience great for me. I'm typically very shy but the gym is something I've missed during lockdown so being back has truly improved the quality of my life again. THANK YOU JD & KEN :)
P. P.
Very helpful staff, accessible for all.
As a visually impaired member, at my gym induction the very first thing they did was ask what help I needed etc and give me a tour. They have a really nice disabped changing room with shower and ramp access to other parts of the gym. They have a lift to access the gym itself and everyone there has always been really nice and helpful. Huge variety of equipment and classes with staff on hand to give tips and advice.
H. F.
Very clean, nice place. Lots of classes and equipment. The trainers there are very friendly and give great advice. Normally not too crowded, although it would be nice to have more gaps in classes to use the room more often, and maybe longer hours. I've seen a lot of trainers work with people needing physiotherapy. One thing I didn't like was the fire alarm every week that lasted forever, I didn't think it was necessary to be tested for a full hour. Also the showers are good but the timer is too short.
Overall, really good gym I really liked going there
L.
Been back to the gym for the first time since lockdown and JD Gyms has made a massive effort to keep everything clean and people well spaced. There is still heaps of equipment to use and you're never too far from a cleaning station. They've done a great job.
The PTs are also all friendly and helpful. Sarah's especially been great and provides amazing individual PT sessions. I'd highly recommend her if you're looking to take that step to achieve your fitness goals!
S. H.
Pretty standard budget gym - has a fair bit of equipment but is nearly always busy. The roof also leaks a lot if the weather is poor. That being said the staff have always been helpful and it's a good gym if you're on a budget.
H. T.
Love this gym!! The equipment choice is great and i LOVE the classess, a great choice! My PT there (Sarah) is amazing and knows exactly what's shes doing... all of the staff are really friendly too! Usually pretty clean and I've seen they've got cleaning stations now too! (Haven't been since COVID yet as not in Cardiff). Showers and changing rooms are spacious and all kept clean. For it's great price I'd really reccomend, only downside is peak times were usually pretty busy but that'd be the same anywhere!
L. B.
It's a gym and I will have more to say once I have actually been inside the building and not just walked close enough to it for Google to think I had been there.
N. F.
I've been a member of this gym for a couple years now. Lots of space in the weights section and plenty of machines. Rarely have to queue to use items when it's busy. During lockdown when the gym was closed, all direct debits were paused while the facilities were shut which was really good too (some of my friends' gyms still charged them).
E. M.
I've never successfully stayed at a gym before this year, I've been going since January and still a regular, the gym is large and welcoming and the changing rooms/showers and sauna are clean and looked after. There's a large range of equipment and helpful staff as well.
Price is good and affordable. I've also been having some PT sessions with Kennedy and he has been friendly, and encouaging, understanding of my anxieties around going to the gym and has helped me to improve at my own pace. Thank you!
G. W.
Great gym with some really challenging classes! Staff are all really friendly and helpful. Kennedy especially is great at helping you reach your goals and pushing you that bit harder. I'm always put at ease when I'm there!
T. A.
Always good gym to train in, staff are nice dies gey very busy at peak times though
A. C.
Been a member of this gym since it opened. A really lovely gym with great equipment and the classes are brilliant! I avoid going at "peak" time (around 4.30pm-7.30) because it's super busy and that's not for me. The trainers are always around to help you if you need it and they're all really nice and caring.
M. R.
The most welcoming gym I have ever been a member of! I've been coming here for nearly two years now and have grown so much in my confidence and ability. Kennedy my personal trainer is amazing and has really pushed me to success. All the staff are so friendly and offer expert advise on both training and nutrition.
H. M.
Great gym , really good size gym with good facilities and great atmosphere. There are lots of classes. PT trainers are very helpful and friendly. Especially David and Sarah who have helped me so far since joining and doing there great outdoor classes
Y. C.
I’ve joined this gym since it’s first opened in Cardiff. The staff were and still are incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. I’m never afraid to ask for help if I can’t use a machine or if I need help with a certain exercise. They have a variety of classes that are mixed ability so allows you push yourself to you own limit, shout out to the spin classes that are always fun and a killer! I also can’t fault the PTs, I’ve had 2 since i’ve joined as I like to learn different techniques from different people. They adjust the exercises to your body and capability, support you and guide you. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this gym! The staff play a big part in making this a clean/tidy and fun/social gym.
S. S.
Best gym I’ve ever been to, excellent pieces of equipment and lots of it. Fantastic fitness classes and very varied to everyone’s tastes. All the personal trainers there are excellent, very friendly and helpful. I’m currently training with Ceinwen and I couldn’t ask for a better trainer. Also clean and spacious changing rooms including a sauna. Can’t recommend this gym enough.
J. F.
Having come from Pure gym, I found JD Gym clean and spacious. Lots of free weights but less machines than Pure gym. (Excluding certain machines)
The sauna is a really nice extra and the classes are great. Most(few exceptions) personal trainers are friendly and helpful which is motivating and inviting.
I wish it closes later, but with time and demand I'm sure it may be a possibility.
S. K.
Great gym- very clean and spacious! Offers lots of classes, staff are always helpful & friendly and price is reasonable. Perfect for students!
C. G.
Interesting starts at the door, or better at the warm up before the door! Stylish gym, with helpful trainers, top notch facilities and unbeatable prices!
E. W.
A fantastic gym in a great location which has brilliant equipment. A huge variety of classes with trainers like Faye who really motivate you to push yourself. I have also had personal training sessions with Cei during my pregnancy which have been amazing. I can’t recommend her enough as she is extremely friendly and really knows her stuff when it come to prenatal training. She has taught me so many new exercises that I could use through my pregnancy which gave me back my confidence.
M. h.
Gets abit busy at 4-5ish on Wednesdays but apart from that really friendly staff good environment and quality equipment
J. T.
Gym is great with plenty of space and very clean! Only nag is for gym users to bring a towel.. don't want to be wiping their sweat with my gym towel. What would be great if you had a spray and paper towels to rub the kit down before you use it! Other than that I'll be joining up and getting into top condition!
D.
Recently joined, gym is a good size and sani stations throughout! Having PT sessions with Sarah and she's amazing 😊 not only gives you the push you need but very informative too!
A. W.
I've recently moved to this gym and I do not regret the decision.
There have been a couple of minor problems with one of the leg presses and the elevators. Stuff breaks, it happens. Overall though, this gym has so much equipment it's not a problem. So much equipment that at peak times it doesn't feel that busy. As there are always bars free.
For once a gym that doesn't prioritise most of its floor space with cardio equipment. The staff are nice, the equipment is awesome and I've enjoyed all the classes I've been to so far.
For the price you can't knock it.
D.
Early days but so far so good. Like the lack of a contract and cost which is incredibly reasonable. Staff very friendly and equipment up to date and plenty of it. Good covid 19 measures in place. All in all a top gym.
S. A.
Great gym in the heart of Cardiff, It has so much to offer for a budget gym (currently £20pm). It's always clean which is great because the other 2 gyms I've been a member of in the city centre are disgusting. Friendly staff and you get an extra free workout by climbing all their stairs to get I there lol.
E. H.
Joined this gym three months ago. Its a big gym, nice changing room and it has a sauna too. The stuff are friendly.
There are like 5 squat racks there and lots of benches!
It can get really busy in peak hours(5pm-7pm) and often have to wait to use the equipments. There is a guy with beard always occupy the same equipment for ages! He's always talking to people! Its so annyoing when the gym is busy but he's just busy talking to people, it's selfish!
E. K.
I joined this gym since the day it opened. It's a big gym with lots of spaces.
Pros: two good deadlift platforms, spacious changing room, nice benches.
Cons: this gym is big but it only has three cable machines, no hack squat machine, no seated dip machine, no t-bar row equipment for barbell and no seatead over-head press machine! Its a big gym but it has less equipments than other two gyms in town and it has no car park either.
S. P.
Good gym in the city centre with lots of equipment. Was good in the beginning when it opened as there was equipment available even at peak times. Now it’s too busy at there’s no hope for a decent workout during peak hour.
K. M.
Good, well equipped gym that has everything you need. No problem getting equipment in the mornings, only after work does it get packed.
Some minor improvements:
1. Showers have timed release, and these mechanisms are now loose from overuse, so what used to be a 20s shower is now about 4s in most stalls. Need fixing.
2. Fix the WiFi: even staff say this has never worked
3. Thursday morning fire alarm test that goes intermittently for an hour: is this necessary?
Apart from that, a cracking good gym 👍🏼💪🏼
C. E.
Absolutely love this gym! Very clean and great equipment there. The trainers and the staff there are always there to help, especially Ceinwen! I always feel welcome there and there’s great atmosphere 💕lots of love for this place!
C. E.
The gym is very modern and the equipment is great, but don't bother going between 17:00 and 19:00. Management let in way too many people meaning there's a queue for nearly every piece of equipment. Ruins it for everyone.
L.
Great gym, plenty of equipment to use! Friendly staff! Hope the cleaning stations are a permanent fixture. Not 24/7
E. M.
The gym is very well organised and clean. Also David the PT trainer has gone above and beyond to help me so far and really enjoy training in the gym thank you
A. J.
Great gym for the price, opening times at weekend could be earlier, other than that excellent.
J. O.
Really rate JD. Great space, equipment and staff. Not done any classes yet but they are included in the (very reasonable) cost of membership. Oh and there's a mini sauna in the changing rooms!
H. T.
Super helpful and friendly staff, with flexible payment scheme. Quitting was also super easy. Has treadmills, machines, free weights PTs and classes. If I still lived in Cardiff I'd still be there.
S. C. B.
It's a nice gym! Good equipment, and very friendly staff! Highly recommend it! (I had a day pass as I'm visiting out of town)
H. L.
Second day working out here, fire alarm went off 20 minutes in, staff said we’d only be “10 minutes” forcing everyone outside in the rain without their belongings. Then when told that they’re “not meant to let us back up”, but those who still had stuff in their lockers could go, a horde of us were turned away making us go down and wait with no apology or sincerity, cheers JD
I. W.
Now that it's really busy, would appreciate it if some of the staff would speak with the people that curl in the deadlift platform/squat rack whilst taking 5 mins between sets to update instagram. Some people just want to get in, get work done and go back to their job.
Can't see me remaining there if this continues.
Apart from that, quality equipment, classes, location etc.
S. E.
Really friendly staff, took us on a tour of the facilities and helped us get started. Not too busy and have pretty much everything you need
M. H.
Great layout and great array of equipment. Staff are friendly and helpful.
The only down side is that when it’s busy the shower pressure can be very little to none at times.
M. H.
Good facilities in a clean and well managed new site. We'll layed out with plenty of room. The sauna in the very spacious changing room is a big plus.
P. L. G.

Amazing gym, friendly staff, awesome classes and plenty of space. Possible the best gym in Cardiff for facilities, price and location.

Dealing with Covid-19 well! Loads of sanitiser and cleaning products to wipe down equipment. Good classes, and never too busy. Good value for money
r. d.
Good gym, nice selection of equipment and good changing rooms. Downfall is there is no tissue/towels anywhere in the gym to wipe down equipment
A. W.
Only been for over a week and you can just get on with it. Staff are friendly, approachable and give great advice just for asking. The fact that the classes are included in the membership is awesome.
J. D.
It's a nice modern gym. Saunas in the changing rooms are a bonus too. Can get a bit busy.
F. G.
Perfect gym, has everything. Always been looking for a gym with heavy boxing bags this one's got it. Now I can get my cardio back up since I can't run with my torn ACL
