Had an issue with accessing the Gym and there was no support to help get it resolved. They only have a number for payments and a online chat which always says no one is online. Three days later and still no support and no gym access. Membership cancelled 😡.

Great service
Great service, once I lost my phone but the trainers helped me to get back and they were very helpful.
Ladies Who Lift great class but not great time
Today I booked on to Ladies Who Lift and I thoroughly enjoyed it, I was really nervous to take part in the class but Ellis quickly calmed the nerves with his friendly and professional manner. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was due to the time of the class, it would be great if this class was available early morning or in the evening, as 2.30pm doesn't really suit many, i.e. if they work a 9-5. I was only able to do todays class because I'm on holiday from work. I understand 2.30pm is a quieter time, but I would really love to learn to lift and not have to pay an arm and leg for a personal trainer.

This place is rough.
This place is rough.
Over subscribed gym, too many people sitting around on equipment not using it so other people can’t use it. Guys will go for a wander and then tell you’re they’re using something but don’t touch it for half an hour. Or using a bench purely to put a water bottle and their phone on. People don’t understand not walking through the path weights are travelling through.
Groups of 4+ teenagers messing around on equipment and constantly boxing the air thinking they’re rocky. They should take the punch bag out again, too many teenagers aren’t using it as a workout but are practicing punching as hard as they can on that thing.
The place is also a mess. Nobody puts anything back.
Too many camera tripods everywhere, it’s got to the point wannabe ‘influencers’ are turning up with two dslr cameras. Have seen guys taking pictures of women working out when they think they’re not being watched. Have also seen the staff going out of their way to perv on women working out.
Saw a guy taking steroids in the changing rooms and tried to sell me some.
Membership cancelled.
Edit: generic corporate response also demonstrates that the company does not care about well being of members. “We’ll make sure staff are aware of your thoughts” but we won’t tell them to stop perving or stop guys taking pictures of women bending over. What a joke

This gym is a joke
This gym is a joke. Since 4 weeks two of the same machines don't work.
So people can't do basic exercise. Noone is willing to fix them for such a long time. In one of the machines the issue was seat, which you can change from the other one, so you can have at least one machine ready to use, while they fix the other. Unfortunately none of the staff is willing to do it or report the problem. Dissapointing!

Mukund Venkat Best PT @The gym Walthamstow
I've been training with Mukund at the gym for the past six months, and I can't say enough positive things about him. He's an exceptional personal trainer who has made a significant impact on my fitness journey.
From the start, Mukund demonstrated a keen understanding of my goals and tailored a workout plan that perfectly aligned with them. He took the time to assess my strengths and weaknesses, ensuring that every exercise was challenging yet safe. His extensive knowledge of different training techniques kept our sessions engaging and motivating.
One thing that sets Mukund apart is his unwavering dedication to his clients. He's always punctual and ready to push me to my limits during each session. His positive attitude and encouragement make the hardest workouts seem more manageable. He genuinely cares about his clients' progress and regularly checks in on my diet and lifestyle outside of the gym.
Mukund's expertise extends beyond just physical training; he provides invaluable advice on nutrition and lifestyle changes. Thanks to his guidance, I've not only seen impressive improvements in my strength and endurance but also in my overall well-being.
The gym can be an intimidating place for some, but Mukund creates a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. He is patient and attentive, always correcting my form to ensure I avoid injuries and get the most out of every exercise.
I can confidently say that training with Mukund has been a game-changer for me. I've achieved results beyond my expectations, and it's all thanks to his personalized approach and commitment to helping me succeed.
If you're looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and inspiring personal trainer, I highly recommend Mukund. He's undoubtedly one of the best in the business, and I'm grateful to have him as my trainer.

Stay active and fit during my holiday
I’m here on holiday for two months and I decided to join the gym to stay active , it turned out to be an incredible experience all thanks to my fitness instructor Shenika Davids, her enthusiasm and energy were contagious, always approachable and give support . Not only did she help me stay fit during my holiday , but she also introduced me to new exercises and techniques that I hadn’t tried before . To sum it up my time in the gym with Shenika was absolutely fantastic and I hope to comeback next year .
