Too many subscriptions meaning the gym…

Too many subscriptions meaning the gym is permanently over crowded and being unable to get a decent work out in. The gym either needs extending, or memberships limited. Too many times I entered and left within minutes as nothing was available to use ( i never went at peak times either)

Such a positive experience

I’ve come back to the gym after a very long spell of serious illness and being banned from exercise for some years. I’d lost my confidence and obviously fitness. Specifically Kirsty and Sarah have been amazing. I’ve felt comfortable in all the classes I’ve attended, been made to feel welcome and I’m really enjoying it.

Excellent classes

Excellent GLC class run by Giovanni. And Mark does a great Lift and Core class. Have also done Tariq’s Strength class, which was also great. All are challenging and encouraging, very nice staff.

My Pure Gym Experience

Since joining the gym I can't fault any of the friendly staff or members they have been incredibly welcoming to me I've not had the greatest of confidence but I'm getting there slowly with the help from the staff and members I've met I just wanted to give a massive shout out to Alice who is the gym manager she is also a Personal Trainer who I'm thinking of having and she is the most amazing, kindest caring and supportive and understanding manager and she'll always have time for you if you ever need to someone to talk to or advice you'll please come and join you'll never regret it 💙

Where Are the Showers?

Dear PureGym,

Two weeks ago, the changing rooms were designated completely “out of action”. Understandable - these things happen. We were patient, adapted, and carried on with the important business of lifting heavy things, pushing and pulling equipment, and pretending not to notice users arriving and changing clothes next to the vending machines.

Now, the changing rooms are back in use ...but apparently the showers have taken a different career path. There are currently no shower facilities available.

Previously, we were encouraged to experience the gym’s tropical climate. Then, we grew accustomed to being offered the restorative benefits of an Arctic shower. Yes, balance is important.

PureGym Birmingham West now appears to have abandoned its wellness era [exercise followed by an increasingly intimate relationship with cold water] and instead seems to be promoting an organic, “au naturel” approach. I anticipate updated signage: “embrace the bacteria” or “celebrate going without basic hygiene.”

For those training before work, during a lunch break, or after a long day, I’m sure we can all agree that being able to shower is far more adult than relying on wet wipes. I’m sure there is a perfectly good explanation, and hopefully an equally good solution.

I appreciate the long, hot, dry summer, but this apparent water-saving idea is not acceptable, no matter how hard I focus on my intra-workout affirmations of “I’m feeling PureGym good”.

It would be genuinely appreciated if PureGym could provide members at Birmingham West with a clear update on what has caused the shower facilities to remain unavailable, what is currently being done to resolve the issue, and, ideally, when we can expect them to be fully operational again.

Just noting it.
