Ladies Workout Express NFFS Review

Joined the ladies workout express in Glasgow when it first opened. The fact that the first 100 members had no joining fee was one of the pros, also at the time the staff seemed really friendly and there was a nice atmosphere. However, 4 weeks later, everything changed drastically. Attitude of the staff was appalling! Wouldn't even get a word out of them and they always seemed too busy at their computer. The nice atmosphere which was there at the beginning had now changed to a gloomy, dreadful atmosphere. They didn't even invest in fans and didn't even open the windows. Instead, they claimed that keeping the lights off kept it cool? Awful! It just made it all dark and gloomy.

The 'boss' was nice at first, but then her attitude changed. She became cheeky and spoke to others as if she was speaking to children. Was very arrogant and all I got was a hello out of her when walking in. It's as if she liked to put others down. Later on I found out I was conned into a years contract. Was being told by someone else I could have joined for three months before the boss came and rudely stopped the conversation so I could not find out more.

The machines were ok, was shown how to use them once. Few weeks later, one of the women told me I had been doing it wrong. I was very annoyed at this fact as they don't even stand and show you how to use it especially as it was the first time I had joined a gym, ever. The way they sit at the computer and ignore everyone is as if they're doing a top government mission. Few months into the gym - they bring in a very cheap cross-trainer and treadmill, at a charge of one pound per session on top of the £30 monthly fee! Proved to be very unpopular and they then returned it. They couldn't even be bothered to fix the pedals of the bikes and at times the boss seemed a little racist. As soon as a White person walked in she would be right next to their machine talking to them as if they have known each other for years whereas with others she wouldn't even acknowledge the fact that there'd there and would sit at her computer.

Can't wait until my contract is over as there is no chance in hell I would ever renew my contract with them. I would also advise people not to join their gym. Appalling behaviour of staff - very cheeky and arrogant. Only friendly once I had been conned into joining for a year and couldn't even cancel my contract. Please go somewhere else. Even their machines creak and are dirty! Save your money and join a different gym.
