Negative experience: Really disappointing experience I attended the 7:30am Form class this morning at GRIPT with my partner and my friend. When we walked in, we were greeted by Olivia who was lovely and walked us through the gym and explained where everything was. After that, the experience went downhill from there. When the class started we moved into the centre of the room and the “coach” Josh (I think his name was) started running through the warm up and by running I mean he read out the exercises on the screen with no explanation provided. I called out to him and told him that we were new, and didn’t clearly understand how the session was to run. He introduced himself to me and my partner but completely ignored my friend until I also let him know it was her first time also. Very rude. After the warm up, we moved onto the main workout. The session was as follows: A1) Deadlifts B1) Front squats C1) Cable flys C2) DB bench press D1) DB pull overs D2) DB bent over row There was no explanation of how to properly execute a deadlift or a front squat, both exercises are challenging compound lifts that have quite a few moving parts to them. During the session, I was often asked to add a 3 second eccentric to the exercise, there was no tempo programmed in the session and I felt like he was just telling me to do this so it looked like he was actually “coaching”. There was also no indication of the rest breaks between exercises so the whole session felt really rushed as we didn’t know how much time we should be taking. There was also not enough space to run through the session as it was programmed so we ended up doing deadlifts at the end of the session when we were fatigued, this is not smart programming. After the session, no one acknowledged us or asked for any feedback and we just walked out without being welcome back for another session.

Hi Ashleigh, you have Drew here - the owner of GRIPT. We appreciate you taking the time to provide constructive feedback which we will utilise with John to help with his development as he is still new to the role.In terms of the session, the introduction is completed to provide an outline of the session (exercise, reps, sets) which is written up on the board with an understanding that people won’t retain all the information which we will then repeat each time you get to a new station.Because it is a large group training format with 24 people, programming won’t reflect an individual running through it as written - meaning a group will finish on the A series of the session, which in this mornings case was Deadlifting. If you were interested in programming that reflects you individually, personal training would be the best option we can provide.I would like to extend an offer for you to come back to experience another session complimentary with your two friends, and we can look to improve on your experience from today. If you’d like to organise please email our concierge on [email protected],Drew

Amanda Maclean 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Love the classes and space. So welcoming and not at all intimidating, even for beginners. Plus, they have some of the most experienced PT’s in Melbourne.

Fantastic experience: Jarrah has been one of the best trainers I’ve ever worked with. He always goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and safe when training and lifting. Definitely makes it easier to get up and go to training, when you have a trainer as enthusiastic as Jarrah.

Negative experience: No response, No call back, No Email Response back either.

GRIPT

Fantastic experience: The best gym I've trained at for the past 20 years. I've been training at Gript for ~12 months now, and enjoy every moment once I step in the door. Drew and his team put a lot of thought and care into what they offer.

Fantastic experience: Cant wait for the doors to reopen at Gript! Great bunch of fellas along with world class training from Dean, Drew and the crew. They give exercise technique a whole new level of attention, which is exactly what ive been searching for. Highly recommend the guys here

Fantastic experience: Do yourself a favour and start training with these guys! I returned to the gym group exercise after quite a time as I didn't like the impersonal vibe most of gyms have had in my experience. However, Gript outclassed this. It presents an inclusive environment for all levels of fitness, all staff are customer oriented and welcoming. They remember your name even if you just joined. The exercise is well structured and organised. The trainers always explain everything and pass around the floor advising you how to adjust right movements and encourage you in a personalised way. This gym is for absolutely everyone and you gonna see improvements straight away. The membership includes infra-sauna, which makes it a really good deal in this part of the town.

Fantastic experience: Incredible. Everything is just as you’d want it: air conditioning and fans work beautifully, the equipment is kept in great shape, the circuits are well planned, and the instructor is always walking round giving tips and adjusting form. One of my most enjoyable gym experiences in Melbourne!
