If you're serious about training, then this is the place to be (primarily if you're a bodybuilder)! I'm not so much a bodybuilder; I'm more into powerlifting and athletic performance, which it isn't completely kitted out for, but even with that said it has more than any other gym in the area, with every barbell (minus a few squat and deadlift bars) being a texas power bar. Their machines, some old some new, are also top notch, and if you have reasonable intelligence, you will be able to hack them to function in other ways. One thing I would suggest is for them to invest in specialty bars and some sets of powerlifting plates/band pegs to accommodate the growing powerlifting population within it. Their staff are friendly enough, and are always happy to help you with anything you can think of. The place is routinely kept clean - by both staff and members - with a banning system in place for those that abuse both members, staff and the equipment itself. All in all, a place I should've joined sooner (but so glad I did!)

I visited this gym as a guest of my daughter who is a recent member. Served by a friendly member of staff a day pass is £10, monthly membership about £60. As you will see it’s not the cheapest gym membership available but there is a reason for that: Muscleworks has a very good selection of mainly machines and free weights for the serious (but not ridiculously obsessive) person committed to strength training. The ground floor is dedicated to upper body, the middle floor is legs/lower body and the top mezzanine floor is for cardio. I observed a good mix of people and ages. Many of the machines use Olympic weights and are therefore nicely adjustable according to need. The gym also has an app so that you can see how many people are in (35 were there of max 180 when we went). The parking area is not the most generous but there are other car parks on this industrial which comes into its own after normal business hours. For those who don’t drive the gym is five minutes walk from Orpington Station.

What’s up with the staff? Nothing!!! I join on a month pass on 18/08/23 and instantly regretted it. The staff were not exactly rude, but had no interest in me as customer. I have never used the gym and as a new customer one would expect an offer to tour the gym. Nothing. The explanation of the membership, nothing. There were 2 people behind the counter, one just stared at me , but said nothing. It looks like a nice gym you could just do your work out in peace, but the spirit of a gym there is nothing . But I know that service and introduction to the just has irritated me and this will set my mood every I go there. So that will be £70 I will have to go waste. I am sure for the dedicated muscle heads, it’s all about the equipment and kit, but for me I expect a service or at least something disguised as a service. I have written this review however just like the staff, nothing will become of it. If you want at a minimum’s of friendliness from the staff, this is not your gym.

Simply incredible gym. You wouldnt think it to look at me now, but in the late 80s i trained in Pecs Gym Crayford, which was a renowned legs gym and then Flex in Gravesend and in late 90s Muscle Limits in Enfield, with the likes of CHarles Clairmonte and Jamo Nezzar.Ive been to gyms in Brazil and all over Asia and Europe, NYC. This Gym is simply on another level. Well actually a few levels! When you go upstairs to the legs section its mindblowing how many different pieces of kit there are that you might have never seen or used before. Well worth the drive and £10 for the session. Only issue for me was the music. Play a bit of AC/DC for goodness sake.

  • David Catherall

Had to try it as I have heard so many good things. Very big gym. Wide range of equipment. All plates are branded. Huge range of dumbbells available. Upper body on ground floor. Legs on first floor and cardio on second floor. Well laid out professional gym and well ran. The staff are very polite and professional. I paid £10 for the day. I live bout 30 minutes away so could not get down there all the time as I would like. Amazing gym. If you are into training this place is well worth the visit. Car park size is limited so best to attend in less busy periods.

  • XxHatchet_HarryxX

When I went here last week I got recommended by my pt to check out this gym and try legs and I see why the legs floor was amazing with lots of equipment I’ve never seen before, but I thought the music wasn’t all there but that doesn’t stop how good the gym was. By the way the sign on the main road has been blocked by a tree. It was also very clean and looks nice with the dark vibe. I would definitely give this gym a second try as it dose have a good chance of making it on a top 19 best gym I’ve been to

The machinery at the gym is the best and the style as well. However when it is time for you to end your contract they will make it har for you to do so i had to chase them by the phone over 4 times no one helped me i had to take time off work so I can come to the gym and meet the manager in person to tell her I want to end my contract. To sum up my experience it is easy to join their gym but they will make it hard for you to leave if u want to do so.

  • Tommy Roberts

Really great place, the amount of machines and weights makes you feel like a kid in a sweet shop! Never been in a gym with so much variation of equipment. The staff I've met are friendly and helpful. A bit pricier than other local gyms, but if you are looking for a proper gym with a great selection of equipment, then this blows the others out of the water.

  • ET80

Took a tube, a train and a bus to get there. Totally worth it. Equipment is great and there's a lot of it. Staff is nice, and you can tell people there train and leave the BS at the door. Seeing so many people serious about lifting makes it a great experience and helps you push yourself.

  • Simon Talbot

Been couple times and I can only wish it was my local gym. The range of kit is amazing. So many great machines and I love the dumbbells. Very friendly atmosphere. Staff great. Honestly if you live round Orpington join. If you don't live near like me try and train there when you can.

  • GH

No nonsense warehouse gym with vast selection of great equipment, plenty of power racks with friendly, smiling reception staff. Very reasonable day & weekly passes available at the front desk. Whoever put the gym together has great knowledge and shows high professionalism.

  • Rory Harris

A really nice gym. Staff were very welcoming and friendly, a whole floor dedicated to lower body training and another dedicated to cardio was very welcome. Spacious, loads of equipment, banging music. My only small gripe is £10 for a day pass seems steep.

  • Nataliia Melnyk

Great gym if you are keen to just get in and train hard like old school. OCD clean changing rooms and showers. And they do offer food and breakfast just a bit tempting while you are still training and it is only mid session but you want to eat …

  • Saq

Extremely well equipped and perfectly set out gym. Top notch equipment, with many variants of similar machines. Carrying some iconic branded pieces. Immaculately kept with everything neat and tidy. Definitely one of the best gyms I've been to in the UK!

  • Jordan Gower

Soon to be the best Body building gym in UK. Great equipment. Weight selection. Great atmosphere. No weird clickly groups , hard working friendly place, great staff and supplements available, good and drinks as.well. clean decent maintained facility

  • EMdotBE

Hands down one of the best gyms I've ever step foot in. I went there for a photo shoot so didn't do a full workout but I did use alot of the machines to get a pump and the selection is crazy. Really clean, spacious and equipped gym.

  • The White Sword

It’s a great gym, but £10 for a day pass is extortionate & silly in my opinion, equipment is great, staff seemed distant & withheld, even when i tried to make conversation, I’d give the gym itself 5 stars & the staff 2-3 stars.

  • Joejoe Ankrah

Amazing atmosphere. Clean. Great work out music. Friendliest staff ever. Wide variety of equipments. And the guy that runs the place is really cool and friendly too. Always available to talk. Just sucks they have no wifi

  • Marvin

3 floor gym with great equipment. I do a 100mile round trip to see Sam the PT there. Well worth the money and journey. Also has it's own little restaurant of great food. Highly recommend Sam and the gym.

10/10 gym, but the parking is horrific, if this place had an actual car park, it would no doubt be 5*, but the gym itself is amazing, probably one of the best gyms in the UK
