"Gym since for few years now"

2 years ago

Been at this gym since for a few years now and it has gone from strength to strength. A fantastic gym with great facilities, staff are super friendly and always up for a chat before or after a session. The sauna is a great added feature not to mention the addition of the squash court. The HPZ really takes the gym to another level and with it being recently refurbished its just incredible, really gives it that elite sports facility feeling. The gym has recently all been refurbished and it looks phenomenal, from the paint work to the new floor mats just a massive upgrade from the old version. The separation of each room is fantastic so you can pick and choose which room you would like to train in. They have recently moved the machines around in the machine room which has made it so much more spacious and a great environment to train in. Cant speak on the female changing rooms but the male ones are really spacious and clean, their hand soap always smells nice too which is a bonus. One of the best smith machines Ive used in a gym super smooth and makes using it an ease. Staff are always up to help with any questions you may have and very knowledgeable. Never taken a class there so cant really speak on that. Another massive bonus is the lockers to keep belongings, most gyms tend not to have these which is a brilliant feature which other gyms should adopt. The water fountain is also great provides ice cold water every time. Gym is regularly cleaned throughout the day keeping it in great condition all day. Regarding over crowding, it has only ever been over crowded once but that was in January / February when new year members join other than that never really had an issue with over crowding. Parking is great too you can park literally opposite the scenic Bristol County Ground and whilst on the topic of cricket you get free access to cricket matches during the cricket season which tops it all off for me as a massive cricket fan. Overall a definite 5 ⭐️‘s from me

"Signing up you receive free personal training"

2 years ago

On signing up you receive 1 free personal training session. I had this session with Rhys whom I cant recommend more. As someone that has experience in gyms I just needed a little guidance, Rhys went over and beyond to show me what exercises I should be doing, how to do them properly aswell as even curating a detailed push/pull training plan. BS7 Gym as a whole is an incredible gym, the layout is perfect for beginners due to the separate rooms, it never seems too busy and the equipment is always working perfectly.

"Gym weights area and excersize rooms"

1 year ago

The gym (weights area and excersize rooms) is a decent one and they have a serviceable squash court but it is a bit run down and mouldy. However, my main issue with the gym has been the booking of the squash court. Bewilderingly, the gym uses telephone booking where you have to ring the gym and ask for a specific slot. On two separate occassions this has led to the staff booking the wrong time slot or double booking the court. This meant I turned up and had to wait around for an hour each time for the court to be free again. This was really inconvienent for me and meant I had finish playing later than I wanted to. I asked for some sort of compensation and they unhelpfully offered to 'extend my final month by one week' which makes no sense as I am leaving. It's irritating that the staff made a mistake in the bookings but these things happen - my main gripe is a lack of an online booking system which would make things much easier for everyone and prevent human error.
