Al’s Gym

Negative experience: Worst service ever at the front desk! To make a long story short, I signed up for the 5 day pass online. I clicked a button on the website to put my email in to get the pass and thought it was just an automated thing. When I arrived, he was so rude and the first thing he said was “You could have said Can I have a pass instead of just putting 5 day pass on the website.” And then he threw the clipboard on the counter. He said this happens all the time. Well, maybe you should get your website fixed as it isn’t clear it is going directly to a person. I turned around and walked straight out of that gym and will never come back. Someone with that attitude should never be working at the front desk of any business.

Negative experience: Very disappointing and worst service I’ve ever had in any business. Shocking. As soon as we walked in the guy at reception was probably agitated by something and took it out on us. We signed up for a trial and instead of welcoming us, he started giving us attitude about not writing a better email. Not sure if it’s because we are coming for a free sessions or what, in which case they should not offer it. I have had gyms all my life, never in my wildest dreams I would talk to customers that way, especially for nothing. I get emails all the time, plenty are short to the point. Nothing wrong with that at all. I certainly wouldn’t lose my temper over it. Very bad business.

Negative experience: Awful experience with the big guy at reception. I signed up on their website for 5-day trial. I put “5-day trial” in the message so they know what it’s about. I came in with my wife. And he started to berate me why I didn’t write “I’d like a 5-day trial”. I said I just wrote it as a heading, I didn’t know what else to say. And he got worked up, very angry saying he gets tons of emails like this and he doesn’t reply. Ok, so don’t offer it? Or change your website if you get tons of the same thing. He was arguing that I was rude on email. I’m like it’s a heading, was I rude now? He threw the clipboard basically to fill it in. I said I’m good and ended up walking out. Never been treated so badly anywhere really! All for what, because I didn’t write “Can I please have”… wild!

Fantastic experience: Good, clean gym. Large variety of weights and cardio equipment. Friendly staff

Fantastic experience: I felt surprisingly comfortable in this gym despite the fact that it is dominated by men. There's a partially hidden area to work out and stretch and the music is always fantastic. The gym supplies sanitary items for women and yummy shower gels. It's staffed 24 hours so there's always someone on hand if you need help. I didn't feel leered at or oggled by any of the other gym goers. It's a totally safe environment. Also no matter how busy it gets there always seems to be loads of equipment available. Very happy with my choice to sign up here.

Fantastic experience: Nice gum and good trainer nico

Fantastic experience: Considering the unfortunate demographic, this gym is honestly one of the best in the area. Unlike other gyms that just focus on collecting money, this gym is so focussed on motivation and progression. Great customer service, friendly atmosphere, great equipment, clean and good music. What I even find outstanding is the women’s gym has free tampons and pads for girls to use, no free or charge which to me, unlike a Derrimut - is such a caring gesture. Really goes to show that the little things do matter. Well done to the owner

Fantastic experience: Great gym lots of equipment (also plenty of new equipment) friendly staff and reasonable prices.

Positive experience: Al's gym offered a 5 day trial period which was great to get a good feel for the facility. The staff were friendly and helpful. It had lots of the standard equipment needed for an all round workout. The only thing it dodnt have was a warmup - stretch down area in the gym.

Fantastic experience: Great friendly place to work out. Al is a hoot. Lovely community to be involved in.

Fantastic experience: I attended this gym when I used to live in the Northern suburbs. Al and his team are fantastic, the gym is always so clean and plenty of equipment to use. The personal training is great. The trainer I had was very good in understanding my needs. Sad to say I live too far now but an excellent gym.

Fantastic experience: People are there to train. That's what you want to see. Very comfortable atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great staff. Some of the equipment is outdated but is slowly being updated this year as new machines, new facilities and new utilities such as automated water fountains are being installed alongside a massive range of new dumbells. There is an outdoor area for tractor tyre lipping and a 20meter long weighted sled for workouts. Convenient location with plenty of parking and nearby food services.

Fantastic experience: Respects people's right to choose what they do with their body and facilities a focus on health during a pandemic given the non-existent evidence that the covid-1984 (aka communism) virus has ever infected anyone in a gym here in Australia. Well done!

Fantastic experience: I support you!

Fantastic experience: One of the best body building gym's in Melbourne. The staff members are very welcoming and friendly towards all customers.

Fantastic experience: You legends, thanks for taking a stand!

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Good on ya for taking a stand. All you people that are upset that this bloke wants to open and keep his business alive either have nothing going on in your boring lives or are too brainwashed by MSM. If you're scared of the virus, stay in your little box forever princess. Some of us work internationally and between states and these politicians are playing with our future yet they aren't taking a pay cut like us or making sacrifices like us.... Love to see DH Dan not get paid for 111 days and see if he still shows up to work.....

Fantastic experience: Great location, awesome staff and the owner is a genuine hard working Australian! Would recommend and I'll return again and again.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, would highly recommend. Staff and owners are very respectful and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Great gym awesome owners and staff very helpful and friendly I will always support this gym

Fantastic experience: I respect these guys

Negative experience: So disgusting and disappointing to hear you stayed open during lockdown. Your selfishness and recklessness are puting the entire state at risk. I hope you go under.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym! Great motivating atmosphere at a great price. All the equipment is the best of quality and the whole design is built around proper training. The staff are super friendly and helpful and really care about the members and provide an atmosphere where you really want to train. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, good owners, would definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Great owner and great place to train.

Negative experience: The audacity to defy health orders and open for a quick buck and then to flout not paying the fine. Looks like you'll be out of business anyway

Fantastic experience: Absolute ledgends

Fantastic experience: great place.

Fantastic experience: Legend.

Fantastic experience: Amazing positive atmosphere and great equipment... A great gym with great people...

Fantastic experience: Replacing the old Doherty's that was here (that was also a great gym). This place is large, has heaps of equipment, great atmosphere for training, but also not intimidating for all types of people to be welcome to come in a train. Casual $10 visits are a real plus if you don't want to lock in to anything or just give it a try. Ample parking out front.

Fantastic experience: Nice gym

Fantastic experience: Great gym, friendly down to earth staff. Great array of equipment available for use. Bathrooms have been recently renovated. Great for anyone just starting out at the gym or up to the pro bodybuilders. A place were the clientele take there training seriously and are down to earth. Great place to train

Fantastic experience: Great Place and people are humble. All the staff are so polite and always on foot to help the patrons. They changed the gym structure and equipments and the inner facility which is so great. Here many people worked but the best is as usual Al and only Al. I used to go to Fawkner Leisure center but since last 5 years i am here the old Doherty's Gym now Al's gym. I feel so bad that i lost money and more precious time in FLS. If you are serious then must join Al's gym.
