The Compound Gym

I love this Gym. I thought it was the best place to train in South Wales but having moved away from the area I now believe it is the best place to train South of the M4. A great team of PT’s a friendly and welcoming owner and a good supportive community.

Nothing but enjoyment and a great atmosphere here. No horrible powerlifters hogging equipment and incredibly friendly and welcoming staff!

There's a great mix of classes from strength and conditioning to yoga, and the staff are knowledgeable and professional whilst also motivating in their delivery.

There is a great social atmosphere in the gym so even as a new member I feel like I fit straight in!

Excellent light, spacious gym with lots of new machines and a large functional area. I have rated this gym so highly I am a chiropractor and I send all my clients here for rehab training under the guidance of Calvin because I trust him so much. His knowledge, adaptability and people skills mean you will feel welcome at this gym. You really should try and your first class is free!

Amazing, Adam was so helpful and all exercises were explained really well. Felt good at end if session.

This gym provides great value for money. Anyone who has attended a CrossFit gym before might know that oftentimes there is immense pressure placed on members to attend scheduled classes, and that using the gym for your own workouts during class times is discouraged - not so at The Compound!! Staff and members are extremely friendly, and respectful of individuals personal workout plans. Even when I have attended during class times, there is always space for me to use the gym equipment as needed.
The quality of the equipment is generally good, and you will find what you might generally expect from an open plan gym like this - barbells, kettle bells and dumbbells - racks, benches and boxes - sleds, rowers, stationary bikes and ski ergs. The outdoor space is a nice bonus, and having the garage doors open on pleasant mornings makes exercising a bit more pleasant! Definitely recommend. The gym operates on a no contract basis, and your first open gym session is free. Worth a shot if you are looking for a gym in the Fairwater/Ely area!

Best gym in Cardiff! Excellent facility with plenty of space and great functional equipment. Staff and members are all super welcoming and friendly, and the coaching is high quality. Definitely recommend!

The friendliest gym in Cardiff, great facility, lots of weights and machines, and really fun circuits classes that keep you coming back - all at fair prices

Best gym I have ever been in for a long time now. I would really like to hear more amazing things from this place.
