Wildcard Strength And Conditioning

Fantastic experience: Great place! Wonderfully accommodating for all abilities.

Fantastic experience: Great community and makes fitness fun and easy to follow while making great progress

Fantastic experience: I have been fortunate enough to train in some fantastic gyms but I can say Wildcard and its coaches have given me a new perspective and focus in my training. As a first time Crossfitter I can safely say that Wildcard has taken me out of my comfort zone and has challenged me strive to improve in all aspects of my strength and conditioning. The coaches provide an environment where you are leaving every session, whether that be Athlete, Build or Barbell learning something new or with an area to develop on, as they say, every day is a school day! I am 6 months in and I feel as If I am only just scratching the surface. Cheers guys!

Fantastic experience: The best gym ! Amazing community and coaches! Cannot imagine training elsewhere now

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard due to a change in work schedule, I was nervous to join a new box. But it was the BEST decision ever finding this community. Knowledgable coaches that take the time to check your technique and adapt workouts to make sure you get the most out your session. The people in my group, were/are welcoming even if you can never remember their names! They have organised charity events that were brutal but raised an incredible amount of money. I have even been able to attend an adult birthday party, with dress up costumes- I never thought it was a thing- but it was SUPER FUN!! If you want to improve your fitness in a fun, non-judgemental manner- I 100% recommend this place!!

Fantastic experience: The best gym and community out there. I’ve seen amazing progression in my 1 to 1 sessions with Coach Jake, who has really helped me build my confidence and skill. The whole team and members make it such an inspiring, supportive, positive and safe space for all

Fantastic experience: First time doing CrossFit, the hardest part was walking through the doors. I have found Wild Card an enjoyable and friendly place to learn and train. Experienced members give nothing but help and encouragement. The trainers are knowledgeable and give you help even during the group sessions. Jake, Laura and James are first class. Would highly recommend Wild Card whatever level, even a beginner like myself.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to train, great atmosphere and high level coaching.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of wildcard for over 4 years , that in itself demonstrates what an amazing community and facility it is, Coaches are exceptional and personally my fitness is the best it has ever been , through a combination of classes and coaching. Aside from the fitness it is a warm and fun place to be. Thankyou Wildcard

Fantastic experience: Joined wildcard because I had fallen out of sport and put on a bunch of weight. Previously played squash 5 times a week and a keen runner but had just fallen out of the community with COVID. I wasn't really looking for CrossFit, but came across a post that effectively said "doesn't matter if you've never lifted a barbell, come down and we'll show you how" and that's how it started. CrossFit gyms can come across as intimidating if you don't know what you're doing but this place is the complete opposite. Also my fitness was absolutely in the bin at this point. I was given lots of support in classes to learn the techniques and have been progressing ever since. Anything enjoyable is never hard work and the weight just dropped off. Everyone around you is super supportive, with no egos. Collectively we get better together, and couldn't ask to be part of a better community. If your wondering if you will fit in because you've never lifted a weight or don't know anyone, it's absolutely not a barrier and you'll quickly find yourself a new home.

Fantastic experience: Being a member here for just under a year now & It’s easily one of the best places I’ve ever trained. The programming is really good and the coaches are very helpful. Always a good atmosphere every time I train as well. Everyone is so welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant community, very knowledgable coaches. Never enjoyed training as much as I do now and have met genuinely lovely people whilst doing so. Big up Wildcard

Fantastic experience: Great supportive atmosphere. Brilliant fun

Fantastic experience: Last year I have decided to step out of the norm and try CrossFit ️‍♀️ Joining Wildcard Strength and Conditioning was definitely the best decision for me, looking back now I only regret I haven’t started this journey earlier. This gym first and foremost is personable! Perfect place for novice like me and for those who are into the hardcore workout ️‍♀️ In my first year I have achieved not only confidence , great new skills but most importantly fall in love with physical exercises- not to mention 30kg weight loss I would not be able to do that without amazing dedication and professionalism offered by my PT Matt. His enthusiasm and push to maximise my workout has made a significant impact to my progress and helped me to stay on track with my goals Big Thank you to the amazing team you are legends ❤️

Fantastic experience: This gym is outstanding! With top tier coaching, great equipment and such a supportive community. One year in and loving every session!

Fantastic experience: I came to Wildcard to try CrossFit & get tested. Not only do I get that everytime I go to group train. I got these too New friends & a tight community A support & competitive environment that I always want to be in Coaches who’s knowledge & experience are second to none. Most importantly A different outlook on fitness & my self image I like myself so much more here than I ever have. Thank myself for trying it here. Thank all the coaches & community for creating a family for me I belong too

Fantastic experience: My wife & I were visiting locally so Dropped in for a Saturday session. We were welcomed by an engaging & helpful coach, Completed a brilliant partner WOD, great energy in the class and the members were super friendly, they even asked us for coffee after even though it was our first time there. Will definitely be dropping in again when next in Cov.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely huge gym with a friendly and welcoming vibe. Suitable for all levels of fitness (or lack of) and not intimidating at all. Kitted out for all things powerlifting, weightlifting and crossfit. Coaches are mega and clearly love working there. Showers and changing facilities available too, for after a spicy sweat session - all in all, highly recommend Wildcard S&C!! Oh and there's sometimes dogs, so that's a plus

Fantastic experience: Great spot to drop-in

Fantastic experience: I'm sad to say that I can no longer attend wildcard due to my work location moving out of coventry. I've been a part of wildcard for 4plus years and I can honestly say it's one if the best gyms in the Midlands. The coaches are really helpful and friendly and really make it a friendly environment. I never thought it would be possible to achieve the goals I have and its all thanks to wildcard. Hopefully see you again very soon

Fantastic experience: This place should be prescribed! I started at Wildcard still struggling with PTSD post covid as an NHS worker, unable to tolerate loud unpredictable environments and having no capacity to cope with anything new or challenging...I was overwhelmed (and really unfit!) but soon realised I had so much support and zero judgement from anyone there, and now I NEED it! The more tired and stressed I feel, the more I want to go! The days I start thinking I have nothing left to give are the days I seem to get further...the Wildcard magic I have trained in many gyms over the last 15 years but had never had a go at anything like crossfit and would never have stuck at it without Wildcard ❤️ I have NEVER regretted turning up to a class since. Being able to just walk in (often grumpy and knackered!) and follow a programme knowing I'll get a great work out, all with the support of skilled coaches and supportive members, is invaluable and I wouldn't be without it now. The mentality change is incredible and it's all down to the positive and uplifting atmosphere these guys have created. You don't need crazy goals (or a 6 pack!) if you just want to turn up and do something that makes you feel better, but every 12 weeks you get a sit down with a coach to talk about what you might want to achieve and how to get there, and they genuinely want to help you. Amazing value for money! I've told so many people to just try it and see, you won't regret it

Fantastic experience: Amazing place! I was a complete beginner when I started but have been guided by professionals and transformed myself! This isn’t just a gym, it’s a community, a place to hang out and become apart of something bigger :)

Fantastic experience: Experienced coaches, client focused, fitness for all levels and all backgrounds. Try out some classes, have fun and smash your goals!

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches who make everyone feel welcome in a great community 10/10

Fantastic experience: A very welcoming gym with great coaches and classes! Highly recommend 10/10

Fantastic experience: Great gym, very knowledgable staff - highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: As a 41 year old with a body that absolutely screams “yeah sure I lift, but I’ll never say no to a beer” this sort of gym seemed intimidating. I thought it would be packed with ripped youngsters comparing their six packs and obsessively counting their macros. I couldn’t have been more wrong. It is a warm and welcoming environment with expert coaches who cover all bases. If it’s conventional powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, gymnastics or Crossfit the Wildcard team have all of it covered. There’s no place for toxic macho bodybuilders; there’s always a good vibe in the gym and everyone is welcome. I’ll never train at another gym.

Fantastic experience: I've been part of Wildcard for nearly a year now and it has massively improved my fitness. I'm much stronger, have better mobility and my cardio is better than it's ever been. Having structured classes makes life easy - all I need to do is show up - and one-hour sessions fit easily into my routine. The sense of community is great - guys in the class are super encouraging and the coaching means that I'm motivated and always improving technique. Absolutely would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Wild card changed my life! If you’re looking for a fantastic community, loads of fun and learning to stay fit and healthy then this is the place for you. No matter what level of fitness you are, you’ll learn how to have fun while working out with such a great bunch of people. Your future self will thank you, one of the best decisions I’ve made is joining this gym. The coaches are awesome, full of experience and have made me feel so welcomed. I’ve gained confidence, a new lease on life and so many new friends. Thanks

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing training space with highly knowledgable and encouraging coaches who make it so easy and enjoyable to turn up.

Fantastic experience: I play rugby with a couple of the coaches and had always admired there attitude and physique. My aim was to train consistently, gain muscle, get stronger and learn new skills. I’m very happy to say that I’ve made progress in all of my goals. I felt welcomed from the beginning and can highly recommend Wildcard to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! They really helped me with a plan to get my strength and stability back in my knee after my operation. Friendly environment and very knowledgeable coaches.

Fantastic experience: Great Gym, the staff are super friendly and the equipment is top quality. I'd recommend this gym to new comers and experienced lifters

Fantastic experience: Training at Wildcard has helped me boost confidence and gain more strength. Wildcard is a community of support ☺️

Fantastic experience: Iv been a member of Wildcard for a little over a year now, when I first joined I'd not not trained regularly for a number of years. Now, its one of the main things I do with my time outside of working hours. This is due mainly to the amazing community of people that reside there, all the coaches are great people that give excellent advice a guidance and will help anyway they can. And I'm very thankful for all the other members, since joining I have connected with people I would have not had the pleasure of meeting in my day to day life. Get involved, you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: When I first joined Wildcard I joined as someone who trained on their own and had relatively low confidence in their abilities, but since starting their classes I feel like not only have I improved a lot, I enjoy training and look forward to learning new skills I've never tried before. The coaches are great, they're all super friendly, knowledge and will change things to fit you're ability. What Wildcard & the team have done differently to any of other gyms I've trained at, is create a space where everyone encourages and celebrates one another no matter where they are in terms of "journey",skills or ability. Joining Wildcard wasn't joining a gym, it was joining a community ❤️

Fantastic experience: Great range of kit for lifting, good atmosphere and friendly staff. Recommended.

Fantastic experience: I joined wildcard two years ago and it was hands down the best decision I’ve made. After trying to get rid of my post baby weight at my previous gym with no success I knew it was time for a change. I had my initial foundation with Charlie and was made to feel capable even though I was a complete beginner. All of the coaches are supportive, knowledgable and have a genuine desire to help you achieve your goals. To top it off the community at wildcard is second to none and I’ve made some lifelong friends along the way.

Fantastic experience: Wildcard is THE place to train in Coventry. An incredible, welcoming and friendly atmosphere and culture that extends to everyone regardless of your experience or knowledge. If you’re new to training completely or just looking for something different, don't just join a gym, join a community and there isnt one better than Wildcard.

Fantastic experience: If Carlsberg did gyms… they’d still come second to Wildcard! I’ve been with wildcard for 18 months, progressed in strength, conditioning, acquired new skills and never had so much fun in the process. The coaches have a wealth of knowledge from Gymnastics, Olympic weightlifting, Powerlifting and bodybuilding to name a few. Whatever your goal is, they’re there to offer advice and support throughout. Wildcard have curated an environment thats fun, supportive and encouraging. The workouts are varied keeping interests levels high, with an underlying goal, that’ll see you smash through PB’s regularly. And the best bit, the people! You’ll start at wildcard to get fit, but you’ll stay at wildcard because of the community they’ve created.

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've been to, really helped with my goals!!

Fantastic experience: Wildcard Strength & Conditioning is without a doubt the most inclusive, friendliest, confidence-building place I’ve ever had the pleasure of being a part of. I joined this gym nearly 3 years ago, and have not looked back since, which is all thanks to the coaches at Wildcard S&C. The key reason I think people have success at this place is due to the fact that the coaches actually care about your progression. It’s not just a job to them. This attitude bleeds through into the community spirit that the gym has developed as well, in that everyone is friends… everyone wants you to succeed, and that feeling is infectious. If you’re sitting on the fence of whether you should join or not, then I implore you to just do it and throw yourself in. I promise you won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: I have tried other functional fitness gyms before and if I am honest I have felt intimidated sometimes and worried about training. Wildcard does a great job of creating an atmosphere where I feel comfortable training hard and feeling myself. I cannot thank the staff and members enough for helping to creating a friendly place to train. Whilst also offering create advice and plans if needed. 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, welcoming staff and community

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, friendly knowledgeable staff who always make you feel welcome. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard in July 2023 and it has changed my life for the better! Not only have a seen a big change in how I look and feel! But the coaches and community are the things that keep me coming every week and have made friends for life! This is not just a Gym, it's a community!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely adore this place! Coaches, staff and ATMOSPHERE in “the box”make this place very special. It is a place where you feel looked after, motivated and it brings a lot of joy into life! Highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to not only get fitter, but also looking for a lot of fun and sweaty workouts

Fantastic experience: My progress had plateaued and then regressed on my current training program, so I decided to take the plunge and join Wildcard just before Christmas. My aim was to train consistently, gain muscle, get stronger and learn new skills. I’m very happy to say that I’ve made progress in all of my goals. The Wildcard coaches are very knowledgeable, friendly and attentive to your needs. The programming is also on point and the classes are really good fun. I can highly recommend Wildcard to anyone looking to improve any aspect of their fitness. Big thanks to the Wildcard team.

Fantastic experience: Wildcard is a great CrossFit gym to work out at, they host classes and have very professional P/T instructors. I have personally made a lot of progress and would recommend them to anyone in Coventry. My P/T is Will, he always has exciting workouts planned and the progress I have made with him has been unreal, would highly recommend him!!

Fantastic experience: Great team, been here for the last 6 months and have really noticed a difference in my strength and energy levels. The classes have a lot of variety, learning skills that I'd never think to do by myself but have helped with other exercises, the coaches have been great. Will, Matt and Jake especially have been incredible in pushing me when I didn't have anything left in the tank, breaking down movements so they're easy to digest and give 1-1 coaching even in the classes. Will has been my PT since the start and has been mindful of injuries and even focusing on these areas to strengthen and I've regained alot of confidence in my bodies functionality. He's done a great job at building the workouts and getting the most out of me each session. It's always filled with lovely people and has always made me feel welcome. Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms i’ve been to. If you have goals in mind, you’ll definitely achieve them here with help from the coaches. There is a wealth a knowledge and experience between all the coaches. I’ve been at Wildcard for a few years now attending the PT sessions with Jake. When I first started I explained my anxiety going to gyms and not understanding workouts to meet my goals. He listened and worked with me to build my strength and confidence. All programs are tailored to what i want to work on and I’m achieving all the goals we set. Jake also takes into account my martial arts training and includes exercises into programs which can transfer across. It’s a great gym with a friendly inclusive atmosphere. Definitely recommend coming here to train.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard nearly 2 years ago and it has changed my life in so many ways I only wish I had joined earlier! I started with well below average fitness level, terrible technique, overweight and ready for change. And now I am fitter and stronger than I have ever been. The biggest surprise was the change in my mental wellbeing - I now go to the gym for my mental health more than physical. I genuinely cannot express how much Wildcard really means to me, and the impact it’s had on my home and work life. The classes are great, but the coaches are better ❤️ Every single one of them cares and they push you beyond what you think you are capable of. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great CrossFit space with really nice trainers. Visited for a drop-in WOD and will definitely be back

Fantastic experience: I started training at wildcard in 2018. The coaches have been amazing and have helped me through, not one but two hip replacement surgeries. They’ve worked with me throughout my recovery to ensure that the workouts were put to a level that was within my capabilities. If you’re looking for a facility, where you graded with a smile always made to feel welcome, then wildcard is the place. Not to mention, the banter is always on point!!

Fantastic experience: I was in Coventry for the day and attended a group training session on a day pass. Really welcoming and friendly staff from the moment you step in the door. Great class that can be as advanced as you want, or modified where needed. Cool space, tonnes of kit, and plenty of rig to go around. Only visited on a one off but got great vibes from this gym; would highly recommend for newbies or visitors.

Fantastic experience: The first step into a new gym environment is always the hardest for anyone with great, little or no experience but the team at Wildcard will (and have) always made new comers feel that even as individual and personal your experience to starting with the gym is, you are immediately given the sense you are a apart of the greater picture. From a personal stance, I have been saying that I can’t do that and wouldn’t be able to do that. Which has slowly but surely turned into a I will try that, now I have been saying I can do that in every aspect of the workouts. Give their Instagram page a follow so you can see the posts from the gym and shared by them from members to give you that instant insight to the atmosphere you’ll soon be a part of.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard as a complete beginner 2 months ago having never done Crossfit before. To say that I was nervous was an understatement, but I took the plunge after hearing great things about Wildcard and booked a free consultation. I am so glad that I joined now and only wish I had started sooner because it has completely changed my life and the way that I exercise! I have bundles of energy, reduced lower back pain and I feel fantastic both mentally and physically after every session here. It truly does feels like a community as everyone is so welcoming and friendly. All of the coaches are extremely knowledgable, passionate, and encouraging. They have each helped my confidence, fitness and strength to grow tremendously in the space of just a few weeks, compared to years in and out of other gyms. I have never felt so motivated to achieve my goals with the support of everyone at Wildcard. Huge thanks especially to Joe who got me started on the foundation course and has been incredibly patient and reassuring during the PT sessions, whilst pushing me out of my comfort zone each week to hit goals! I have been recommending Wildcard to everyone as it is absolutely marvellous and exceeded all my expectations. :)

Fantastic experience: Been to this gym in the past a couple of times whilst visiting Coventry as a drop In session. Extremely friendly and accommodating PTs. The long haired receptionist was very helpful to provide recommendations for the rest of our visit too.

Fantastic experience: It’s a great gym, very welcoming as soon as you enter, one of the coaches sometimes even more greet you as you enter asking how you doing and how’s your day been and etc so nice welcome to the gym. It’s a great community with very supportive, enthusiastic and encouraging coaches and that shows in the programmes they have designed for us to get stronger and fitter. Just for the hour of the day you are there working away on a class you leave feeling physically and mentally better as you’ve achieved something and a step closer to your fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: I've always admired Crossfit activities, but it was here at Wildcard in 2019 that I finally got started. In the beginning I was a bit worried, despite training my whole life in conventional gyms, that I wouldn't be able to follow the sessions as the movements seemed to be very intense and apparently far beyond my capacity. However, when I started the foundation sessions, I received all the guidance and training that proved that, with the right support and a team of highly qualified staff, I would indeed be able to gain physical conditioning and strength that would allow me to perform the most complex movements and follow my lead, challenging and overcoming myself every day. Wildcard also has a special culture of community and engagement among members and thanks to that, I've met incredible new people. I would definitely recommend for all those looking for a place to practice exercise & training, in a relaxed and fun way with the support of an incredible team of staff, who will help you achieve results, and also meet people as special as each member of this community.

Fantastic experience: Great experience at wildcard! Really enjoyed the strong classes and discovered a newfound hobby in CrossFit Thank you to all the coaches!

Fantastic experience: Been coming to Wildcard for around 5 months. Its a great set-up. The instructors are really positive, knowledgeable and friendly - creating a great atmosphere. Great mixture of classes which offer a variety of training and fitness development approaches. Definitely recommend the place.

Fantastic experience: Overall great place, friendly community and excellent gym!

Fantastic experience: Very Welcoming, has helped me improve enormously. Would highly reccomend. 14/10.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great coaches & great community. Completely kitted out with all the gear you could ever need.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit experience not required - the gym offers foundation training to get you started. All the coaches do a wonderful job at developing your skills. Classes are sociable - I started 3 months ago and I've made plenty of friends. The gym fosters a community spirit by welcoming newcomers and hosting events. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: After training here once I accidentally became 12x Mr Olympia, 5/5 would train here again

Fantastic experience: My happy place Great gym, fantastic coaches and great support

Fantastic experience: Excellent Community. Excellent Coaches. Excellent programming that really makes a difference. Would never go back to a public gym after this. Always recommended!

Fantastic experience: I love to drop in here when I visit Coventry.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard back in July 2022 and it has been a great experience from the start! I originally started off bodybuilding which got very monotonous and I was looking for a change which is when I decided to join Wildcard. I was apprehensive at first as I didn't feel like I was fit enough but this is the PERFECT time to start!!! Within weeks I was fitter, stronger and the coaches are all so knowledgeable and motivational. The gym is always clean and the equipment is all of a super high standard with some really good extra bits of bodybuilding and powerlifting kit too. The group sessions are so much fun to go to during the week and the partner workouts on a Saturday are one of my favourites with coach Laure, there's such a great community feeling at Wildcard! I've also been to the lift classes with coach Joe and learning the correct technique and being in a group setting is incredibly motivating, I'm doing lifts I would have never thought I could possibly do! I'm also doing gymnastics things I would have never in a million years thought I could achieve so a big thank you to coach Jake too for some incredibly rewarding skills sessions!!! My only regret is that I didn't start at Wildcard sooner!!!

Fantastic experience: Having joined Wildcard a year ago, I can honestly say this has been the most fun, challenging and rewarding exercise I've ever done. I've always been active, but Wildcard provides so much more than just a gym. It's a community in which you are supported and encouraged to do the best you can. I'm the fittest and strongest I've ever been, and have made some friends along the way!

Fantastic experience: I'm so grateful for the amazing programming at Wildcard and for the recent nutrition challenge I joined. It was exactly the kick in the butt I needed. Being reminded that eating the kid's cold leftover fish fingers was never gonna give me the results I want both in the gym and aesthetically has been priceless. Wildcard is the place for elite coaching and programming.

Fantastic experience: The PT’s at Wildcard are extremely knowledgeable and all of the equipment is high quality - it’s very clear that they are passionate about investing in their clients! I was hesitant to start coming to the gym because I didn't think I would be able to do the exercises properly or keep up the pace without giving up straight away. With instruction and guidance I have progressed mentally and physically since starting! Wildcard fits around my busy schedule and the programmes are tailored to my personal goals. I attend the group sessions, which offer a more social aspect to the gym and a positive environment of both togetherness and competitiveness. I look forward to seeing what 2023 brings for Wildcard as it continues to grow!

Fantastic experience: The abstract of this review is simply: if you want a trainer who will always support you, listen to you, challenge you (and occasionally provide some fun film trivia), Jake should be your one and only call. I started training with Jake two years ago, when I hadn’t stepped into a gym for years and all attempts at personal training and various fitness programmes had failed miserably. I had never understood how people got the motivation to train, or why some people enjoyed going to the gym so much. During covid lockdowns we trained in the park, and even though it was cold and wet, it was still more fun than I ever thought I could have doing exercise. Whether in the park or the gym, there’s no judgment, no barking orders like a sergeant major, and no matter how unfit you are, there’s always a plan, and always encouragement. Jake managed to change my entire attitude to exercise and gyms in the last two years, as well as massively improving my fitness, strength, and self confidence. The right personal trainer really can change your life.

Fantastic experience: Charlie is my favourite coach Pryz seems like a alright guy. I got jacked:)

Fantastic experience: Wildcard Strength and Conditioning is THE BEST gym in Coventry. I've grown so much here as a powerlifter and can't imagine training anywhere else. I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: I've been attending Wildcard for the past 4months (both Personal Training with Joe and Classes) and have had such an amazing experience and would highly recommend it to anyone. First of all, in the PT sessions with Joe, I've felt like my goals really have been listened too and we work towards them each week and the progress I've been seeing is so much more than I was expecting. I also feel so motivated to attend knowing I'm working on something personal to me in such a great, supportive environment with someone with a wealth of knowledge. I've had PT's in the past who have their own idea of what your goals should be and it's been really off-putting, which is something I've never felt here. I've also had the pleasure of attending at least one class with all the other instructors. Same with my PT sessions, they all have such great knowledge and motivation and even in a full class you still feel like you've had time to learn and improve with them all taking the time to help everyone. You really do come out of any session there feeling like everyone wants you to win and do well. Also, the fact one of my favourite pastimes is a nap, yet I'm buzzing to go and train should tell you everything you need to know.

Negative experience: Far too expensive for what it is. Exclusive so whilst the odd person might talk to you, most don't even notice your existence. Poor communication all round. Wildcard do not have safeguarding policies in place, and not willing to learn and develop professionally when given constructive criticism. I did definitely attend for 5 weeks. My online name is different to my inperson name for data security reasons.

Fantastic experience: If I have to describe how I feel during and after my experience at Wildcard with only one word I would use 'HAPPY'! P.S. If you're still not sure if you should join/give this place a try simply ask yourself which other gym would give you a personalised handwritten birthday card for your birthday?

Negative experience: I was searching for a crossfit gym in Coventry and this was the only one that offered crossfit style (athlete) classes. I enjoyed a few sessions, particularly those taken by the female coaches, as they were enthusiastic and more technique based in their coaching. However, none of the coaches adapted any of the movements for my friend who was injured, which resulted in me having to provide him with alternative exercises. Also, as I was more experienced than some of the others attending the classes. I received far less one on one advise from the coach and would often receive general praise such as "nice work". I was not impressed with this, given the premium price. Also, despite having done crossfit, Olympic lifting and powerlifting for several years. I was forced to complete an induction (1 on 1 session), which cost me an extortionate amount of money. Furthermore, they advocated how they are focused on building a community that has socials approximately once a month. However, in my 5 months there, only 1 social was organised and I never felt part of a community. This may be due to there being so many classes being put on at the same time and such a quick turnaround of sessions, meaning people are not able to mix with everyone. Additionally, I had an injury at one point and I asked to change my membership from the bronze membership (£80) to an open gym membership (£45), as I couldn't do the classes at the time. The owner said I couldn't do it straight away and said I had to pay for the next month at £80 before changing to the new £45 membership; despite me staying with the gym rather than leaving. Not the way I would go about retaining customers and keeping them happy. Moreover, me and a friend were training one time, when all of a sudden the owner approached us. From a distance he said loudly to my friend "you haven't got membership". It was extremely unprofessional! My friend responded and said he did have membership and it doesn't run out for several more days. The owner then continued to question him and told him it hadn't come up on the system, rather than questioning whether the system could actually be faulty. The owner then said "you need to book on using the app". My friend responded and explained how he changed his membership due to an injury and due to the app not allowing him to book after midday, he couldn't book due to his flexible working hours. The owner was not understanding, didn't ask how his injury was and said that he needs to make sure he books in future. At this point I left and continued with my workout. At this point, my friend later came to tell me that the owner questioned him about me having membership, which was completely unprofessional asking my friend rather than speaking to me directly. I was utterly appalled by how the owner handled the situation and I have never experienced such bad customer service in all my life. This was made worse, given the expensive prices they charge for what I would call a poor service. In summary, the gym has a good variety of equipment and offers a wide variety of classes that appeals to different people, depending on their needs. Also, the two female coaches were energetic, enthusiastic and made the experience fun. However, the poor owner's communication skills, lack of understanding and the lack of variety and differentiation during sessions is the reason why I've only rated this gym 2 stars. I will not be returning, which is a shame, as its the only gym that offers crossfit style classes in Coventry.

Fantastic experience: Before joining Wildcard, I’ve never managed to find a gym that I feel comfortable at. It’s such a great environment surrounded by fantastic people and most importantly for me, knowledgeable and encouraging coaches. I’d recommend Wildcard to anyone, I love it.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard in September 2020. I had moved to Coventry for a year with work and having always played team sports (football, water polo, rugby) was keen for a fresh challenge. To begin with I followed the athlete programming. I Ioved the sense of community and comradery at Wildcard. In April 2021, I decided to switch things up and began 1:1 programming with Alex. My goal was to build strength and muscle. I achieved these goals (HUGE PBs) and loved training in Wildcard which is so well equipped and supportive. Midway through this programming, I also started a cycle of nutrition coaching with Evie. As a vegan, I had struggled to properly fuel my body to achieve my goals and Evie really helped me to address this. She really listens to what I wanted to achieve and what barriers I was facing before going away to do her research and advise me accordingly. I have now moved away from Coventry. I can honestly say that Wildcard has had a lasting influence on my health, fitness, and diet. I am so grateful for the coaching, support, and general advice provided by each of the coaches. I would recommend Wildcard to anybody.

Fantastic experience: Well run gym with excellent programming and passionate coaches.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard about a year ago and its hands down the best decision I have ever made. After training in different gyms, I never found it sustainable and more importantly enjoyable. Since being here, I’ve never missed a session because I love what I do. Wildcard is owned and ran by knowledgable & approachable coaches for both nutrition and programming, with a super supportive atmosphere and well kitted with equipment (people even rerack their own weights here!). Can not recommend enough!!

Fantastic experience: It's more than just a common and mainstream gym.Coaches are professionals, qualified ,taking a good care of each and everyone and motivating people to carry on in order to see the best version of themselves! Also the best place to make new friends and take part in interesting activities.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard in October 2019 and i have loved being there over the last year and a half! The gym is run by Pryz & Alex, both hugely experienced trainers who have built a and a brilliant facility and team. What stands out is the community spirit that Alex, Pryz and all the members foster. Wildcard is about coming in, learning new skills, pushing yourself, everyone there encouraging you to do your best and meeting some great friendly people with some banging tunes playing! Come down and give it a go! Myles

Fantastic experience: Best powerlifting/xfit gym in Coventry by miles. Owners are legends.

Fantastic experience: I joined Wildcard 4 months ago and it is the best decision I have ever made. Getting very close to 40 I wanted to get into the shape of my life and after meeting the coaches started my journey. Through great programming, coaching, advice, support and camaraderie I’ve already lost close to 3 stone and am well on the way to my goal!!

Fantastic experience: Been a member since January 2020 — completely changed my attitude to fitness from something I have to do to something I want to do and have gained so many friends. Can't recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: An amazing place to be in every day! Wildcard is a family and a community combing fitness! Go join a community and be part of something! It’s not just about fitness it’s about your wellbeing, putting yourself outside of your comfort zone and meeting amazing people who are all willing to support you. The coaching team are always there to advise you and support you in your goals no matter what level you are at in your fitness journey and they have a wealth of knowledge. Get yourself down to the gym you have to see it for yourself. #repthecards
