JD Gyms Darlington

Great place. Lovely vibes. You feel the fresh energy as you walk in. Diverse club members and a wide array of equipment, lots of space and modern amenities.

Thanks to Borna (Manager in Charge, apologies for spelling, if incorrect) ensured safety comes first and ensured my details were filed first and I was familiar with the equipment. Fantastic place. Well ventilated, plenty of machines spaces around one floor. 2nd level had impact place for Spartan exercises plus bike exercises. If I was here full time, then this would be the place for me. Now open 24 hours and conveniently placed just off North Road. Loads of parking, equipment kept clean with additional cloths and cleaning products around to ensure everyone keeps cleanliness a goal.If I had a wish list, a sauna and cold plunge pool would be great. I understand saunas were once here but alas Covid made them a thing best closed.Even without these, stair climbers, elliptical steppers, cycles, rowers for cardio, weight equipment a plenty. Thanks again JD Gyms, my legs ache from skipping upstairs.

Decent facilities. Very crowded. Changing rooms/toilets smell terrible and feel dirty.

On the whole this is a good gym with excellent equipment - particularly free weights and racks. Plenty of it too. There's less machines but the space has been used really well.The only thing that really lets this place down is the gym etiquette. Bars always have plates on and stuff is scattered all over the place. The staff are some of the most guilty for it when with their clients. They never go around having a tidy either. Maybe if they set the example others would follow.So yeah a good gym if you like all the toys... but don't mind that they've been thrown around by toddlers. Put your weights back.

This is an excellent gym with everything you’d need to get in shape and keep fit. Even when busy, you don’t feel overcrowded which makes training a lot more effective and fun.

The gym looks amazing nothing broken looking forward to starting

It's a really good gym: equipment, changing area, classes, the only thing that makes it a bit odd is the fact that for some reason they are not really using air conditioning, so at certain hours during specific months it gets really hot and moisty in there, a bit disappointing. It's finally open 24/7, but it's not what you think. You actually need to ask permission to access the gym twice a day which is kinda awkward, especially because there is not always smn around.

1st Day so still finding my bearings but so far so good

Car park needs sorting out ,classes were good when I joined last year ,but they keep changing the instructor's so the continuity just isn't there ,it's a shame I'm thinking of quitting
