Fantastic experience: I rarely review anything on here, but this place deserves it. WOW. It is a little bit on the smaller side, but it is jam packed with top tier equipment. And a Great atmosphere. I called in to get a daypass (10£) and got in touch with the owner directly. If i lived here THIS is where i would train. Great old school style bodybuilding gym!
Fantastic experience: It's like body building family in there! Highly rated!
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great equipment, Martin excellent PT helps me keep in shape every week. Friendly staff and fellow gym goers always willing to give advice if needed, all in all highly recommended place to train or be trained.
Hey Paul! Thank for the honest review, we are always striving to do the best as we can :)
Fantastic experience: Fantastic no nonsense gym with a great variety of equipment. Very good value for money.
Hey Ryan. Thanks for being honest! We're appreciate you great feedback :) Thanks
Positive experience: Gym is well equipped for its intended purposes. Disappointed they seem to run out of toilet roll regularly. The bike racks have been damaged for a while
Thanks for review. We have had a few issues with the cleaning company but will ensure that the paper will be stocked.
Fantastic experience: Visited for 2 days & the owner was fantastically helpful in organising day passes. The gym, while relatively small, was perfect for me to continue my intense style of training. I enjoyed the facilities thoroughly and wouldn’t look elsewhere if returning in the future. The gym was also very clean & well looked after by the owner and members equally. Free parking & location is a major bonus. For anyone who trains seriously: Top quality barbells Top quality racks / comp style bench Great machines (all muscle groups fully covered) Cable machines are very high quality
Hey Chip! We're very happy that you enjoyed your workouts in our gym :)

Fantastic experience: Has everything you could possibly need and everyone's incredibly friendly
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Edinburgh
Fantastic experience: Great gym, awesome people. There you can find a wide range of equipment for powerlifting, body building and weight lifting.
Fantastic experience: I worked out here for the month I stayed in Edinburgh. It's still the gym I compare all others to in terms of quality for the price you pay almost a year later. It may not have the fancy amenities like the big chain gyms but if your goal is to lift weights, this place is hard to beat anywhere in the world.
Thanks for your great review Joshua. We're very happy that you had great exercise experience in our gym :)
Fantastic experience: Awesome and proper, barbell focused little gym
Fantastic experience: Arm wrestling club
Fantastic experience: The best gym in Edinburgh!
Fantastic experience: great facility!
Fantastic experience: Everything you need for a solid workout. It's a refreshing concept when almost every other gym is filled with cardio machines and the lifting machines are not properly built.
Fantastic experience: Great gym
Fantastic experience: Perfect little gym with everything you need for a proper training session.

Fantastic experience: If you are serious about strength training this is the place to train in Edinburgh! The equipment is spotless and there is also the possibility to train outdoor if the Scottish weather allows ;-) We felt very welcome and Martin, the owner, was very friendly.
Thanks for fab review
Fantastic experience: We were on vacation for 10 days and were so lucky to choose this as our place to train. Everyone, including the owner Martin, is super friendly. The gym has everything you need to get a solid workout. In fact, training was the best way to start our day. It’s a no nonsense, get it done, awesome gym. When we come back, we are definitely training at this gym.
Loved having you in the gym you are now our special members

Thanks for a great review Patrik
Fantastic experience: I came to Edinburgh for the Fringe, but I occasional like to keep fit and maintain a healthy shape. Plus, lifting weights helps with the diaphragm. Great gym and it was 2 minutes away from where I was staying! The staff are all very pleasant, even though I'm a grumpy dick most of the time. You can put your own music on and there's everything you need: From 1kg-50kg dumbbells; cables; bars; racks; Olympic station; belts; resistance straps; cardio machines. PLUS! I joined with no fee or obligatory contract, which is fantastic! I could pay, train and then leave without no hassle. One thing was missing, sadly, that was the English flag. Every other flag under the sun on display, but that one. ;) Keep up the good work guys. Highly recommend.
Hey thanks for a fab review! Re flag - bring one with you next time you visit Jack and we will put it up for you , England flags are hard to find in Scotland .
Fantastic experience: Very welcoming staff, thank you Martin! Well equipped and a good vibe, lovely place to workout.

Wow thanks Sam for the great comment. We're happy that you like the gym. Your enthusiasm for you training is infectious.
Fantastic experience: I joined the gym as it was near me, and now it's the only gym I train in. The equipment is excellent and unlike what you find in any other gym, and they have managed to squeeze in everything you need to reach your fitness goals. Highly recommend.
Thanks for the review Jay. It's great that you are finding everything you need in the one place. Thanks for your support
Fantastic experience: I am not new to exercise but very new to the gym environment and was a little bit apprehensive about going to the Body Building Gym. I needn't have been. The team at the Bodybuilding gym couldn't have been more welcoming. They took the time to listen to what I wanted to get from attending the gym and wrote me a specific program that took into account my needs, goals and the time I had available to dedicate to strength training. It was definitely a collaborative process. It's clear that the team know what they are talking about with their knowledge only rivaled by their passion for sharing it. They explained everything to me in a jargon free way, patiently and demonstrated the correct techniques making sure I had understood everything before moving on. Was very impressed and cannot wait to see the results as I work hard with continued encouragement and support from Sharon, Martin and the rest of the team.
Thank you for the review Paul was great to meet you and we look forward to working with you on your fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff took time to show me around and personalise a workout to suit my needs. Didnt feel intimidated being a girl there. Time was taken on showing me proper techniques whilst using equipment, im generally left to do my own thing so felt id properly worked out for 1st time in ages
Thanks for the great review Jane so glad that you felt comfortable in the gym and we took the time to show you technique.
