Fitness First Bangor (Wales)

The trouble with this gym it has quite a monopoly in Bangor as there is really no competition - yet.
Therefore what you get is mouldy shower rooms with lovely rust everywhere. Poor Cleaning regime - none at weekends?
How many years have the left hand side soap dispenser not worked in showers? And the soap racks?? 3-4 years I reckon.
If cleanliness isn’t a concern, then you’ll love the kids running through to the swimming pool leaving a trail of water everywhere. Getting changing and leaving puddles everywhere Nice. No one cleans up these puddles so you’ll have to wait for evaporation.

If you love germs then the Split padding on machines will ensure a healthy collection of bacteria, on your back and if that does float your boat you will love and I mean love the machines in front of the treadmills- the heavy breathing of the runners on your neck is a real delight.

Oh and the best bit, you can’t sit and wait for anyone without buying food or drink. Yes a no waiting policy - unless you part with hard cash.

An amazing gym! I drive an hour every morning to this gym because it is so good, the facilities and equipment are great and all the staff are really friendly and helpful :) Jennifer helped me sign up and gave me a tour when I first joined, she is always really helpful! Highly recommend this place!

I’ve been going to this gym for about 2 years now. I wouldn’t swap for any gym. The staff are very welcoming and always up for a chat. Machines are very good too and there are many choices for free weights.
I’ve attended a few classes and all are suitable for any ability. Some that I found hard, they differentiate so it is suitable for anyone.
Very good gym, highly recommend.

Great gym, staff are helpful and welcoming. Facilities are good, variety of machines and free weights available and a good gym environment! Also enjoyed the challenges provided by the club and engaging with the leaderboard with other gym users! All round excellent gym⭐️

As a regular here, I find the staff to be very personable, approachable, and interested in your progress. When I got injured earlier this year, and when I began cautiously returning to Fitness First the whole team were truly supportive in their care and attention throughout and continue to learn how I'm recovering and managing my injury. The gym has become an integral part of what I do and having a secure, inclusive, sociable and friendly atmosphere certainly makes working out a significantly easier.

Great facility with a variety of equipment to use; I would strongly encourage people to join. It's great to see/hear the welsh language being used as well.

I've trained regularly at fitness first for 7 years. I have used the gym to train for a few competitions during that time. It has everything needed to fit most people's fitness & strength training goals.
The facilities are of good standard. There is a great variety of machine's & equipment (also lots of classes, PT's available & a swimming pool too)
I do feel very comfortable training here, it has plenty of space & is also very friendly. Highly recommended.

Fitness First Bangor is known to be the best gym in town. I have been training in there for a long time and I can only say good things about that place. Very good equipment, all the facilities are on a high quality level, the members of staff are very kind, helpful and friendly to the gym members. The place itself is a very welcoming environment
