JD Gyms - Barnsley Reviews 

24/7
Polite helpfull manager 💪

Good gym, music need to be louder and aircon turned on but everything else spot on

JD Gym are very good but unfortunately i give 4 stars because carpark outside JD Gym in Barnsley are really bad and need to be doone ASP. Every day battle to not damage my car.

Gym has gone from best in class to disappointing due to a lack of care and attention, missing pins, inadequate clips are common and some cables are not free running, the changing rooms are not checked regularly enough and there appears to be no cleaning done on a weekend at all, the showers and change area are a real mess by lunchtime! It’s a shame cos this still could be one of the best around if the staff paid more attention.

The time takes too long to cancel it needs to be faster.

The gym is pretty decent and well equipped however it's the condition of the changing rooms that lets it down. They need cleaning a lot more regularly. Toilets are usually a mess and floors always wet through and dirty

Great choice of equipment and plenty to go around no queues to use anything even at peak time all staff friendly

Loving it at the moment

Honestly an amazing gym with everything you may need, came here for two hours and I felt so much more energetic.

Helpful staff, clean and nice atmosphere

Poor service on reception had a 30 minute wait to get in as qr code did not respond also parking is terrible like driving on the surface of the moon pot hole city

must be 24 hours sauna

The gym facilities are great, lots of equipment and space to work out in private.

The reason for 3 stars is the the car park pot holes!! For a commercial gym I was shocked at how bad they are, some are big and deep enough to cause a lot of damage which I’m sure JD wouldn’t be liable for…

I am currently having the worst time ever at JD Gyms Barnsley, after 6 weeks of back and forth emails due to a malfunction with the vending machine (it owes me £21.50) I resorted to contacting Liam Benson the assistant manager of that gym. He replied swiftly for the very first email. Then proceeded to ignore the emails for a further two weeks, I have provided the evidence has asked for and now he has stopped replying altogether.

The gyms treadmills constantly change speeds and are very very dangerous, the roof is leaking, the tiles in the showers are loose, the vending machine charges you and doesn’t dispense any products, the cleaners don’t do their job and the gym is constantly dirty! The weighted machines are all missing pins, the bikes are out of order.

I understand things go wrong but this gym is possibly the worst JD gyms I have ever been to. The staff are awful and are not friendly what so ever, they sit in their little bunch and just talk, they don’t offer any help or assistance.

I am afraid that this will Be my last month using this gym before I go to Everlast as I have just done a trial with Everlast and the extra opportunists available are amazing.

The gym in itself is very clean and not messy in terms of weights just being left everywhere . As a woman I feel comfortable as there aren’t weirdos who are constantly staring & everyone is friendly including staff . It isn’t always busy which I like because you aren’t just constantly standing around waiting to use any equipment or machines . Price is very reasonable also & id deffo recommend , 10/10

Great equipment, not having to wait about to use equipment, friendly staff great changing room and showers plus being open 24 hours helps can go to gym around my shifts

Really good gym its very refreshing to back and bringing positivity back into my life!!!

No instruction given at recent Zumba class in Barnsley, as a newbie you are just expected to know what to do and the moves that are coming next, no warm up, no nothing, worst class I’ve ever been to in the 30 years of attending exercise classes.

The long opening hours are great. There’s always machines / equipment available, I attend at 1045am everyday, so maybe it’s quieter then. Some of the padding on the machines is worn / old and it’s painful to lift the weights, particularly on the leg extension. Some of the machines are also squeaky and there are ‘pins’ missing on some machines so I have to take a pin with me to adjust the weights on other machines.
The other problem I have faced is there are no lockers to use unless I take my own padlock. There should be lockers available without having to take a padlock.

Been to gym this morning Friday 15th March 2024 at 2.30am. Having finished my gym session, I went into the men's changing room and it was an absolute mess. The floor was dirty, towel and rubbish on the floor & water bottles all over the floor also. There's no excuse for this. This is what happens when Rob isn't on duty. He's got the week off till the 19th of March, so let's hope it's not a mess again untill then
