Negative experience: Security is very average. Constantly has random people who aren't members walk in after hours. Not very safe. Do better please

Fantastic experience: Average Joel’s is more than a gym it’s a wonderful welcoming community. I joined as a casual member for two months while I was on Bribie and found the staff & members all very friendly and helpful. Great range of equipment & selection of classes. I particularly loved the security fobs available for after hours which made me feel very safe working out when the staff weren’t on site & especially walking out late at night.

Fantastic experience: The staff are friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. The gym has undergone major improvements and has many new exercise stations. The classes offered are many and varied: I really enjoy attending them. The clients have become like a supportive family. The fees are very reasonable.

Fantastic experience: Having been a member of Joels Gym (in its many incarnations) for 23 yrs I could not go anywhere else. Membership fees are modest, giving great value for money. All staff/instructors are friendly & helpful. Great vibe amongst the Staff & Members. Great selection of classes with a good workout guaranteed. Joel has done an amazing job in modernizing the facility & equipment. I love being a member, (it's my happy place). That's 5 stars from me.

Fantastic experience: What a blast it has been joining in the classes at Joel's Gym! Joel is an easygoing, friendly and knowledgeable trainer. He sets the bar high as an incredible leader both for his team of trainers and members. Joel's passion to 'change the game' is evident by him balancing his time between being on the gym floor, teaching classes in the mornings and evenings and welcoming members through his doors. I've been staying on Bribie Island for the holidays and I am overwhelmed by how much I feel apart of the community. Joel's gym has instilled a euphoric feeling in me and I'm really set up for success with a drive to self improvement into my training in 2024. Joel, you are a male role model I look up to so thankyou for everything. Thankyou so much Sarah for your energy, keeping me on my toes in your classes and your beautiful smile. You've reminded me as a trainer in training to always believe in yourself. I am going to miss the community heaps and seeing everyone has made my week. I believe Joel's is the best gym on the Island, see you next time :)

Fantastic experience: Average Joel’s Gym is THE BEST GYM I’ve ever been to. It’s friendly and welcoming and the services provided are excellent. Joel runs the place brilliantly. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. I’d give it 10 stars if I could.

Fantastic experience: This ain't your typical cookie-cutter gym. From the moment you step in, it feels like home. No fancy gadgets, no over-the-top interiors – just good ol' honest-to-goodness weights and machines. It's got that old-school, gritty feel that I absolutely love. The crew at Joel's? Top-notch. Everyone's always up for a chat, a spot, or even just a quick pep talk if you’re having one of those days. And the regulars? They've made this place what it is – a tight-knit community of folks just trying to get fit and have a good time doing it. Don’t expect any of those fancy, choreographed classes. At Joel's, it's all about the sweat, the burn, and the laughs. If you're hunting for posh locker rooms or gourmet smoothie bars, this ain't the spot. But if you want a gym where you can just be yourself, make some friends, and get a solid workout without any pretense, Joel's is the place to be. So yeah, two thumbs up for Average Joel's Gym. It's more than just a gym; it's like a second home. See ya there!

Fantastic experience: I love starting the day with a stretch or pilates class and finishing a Wednesday with Lifting Clinic and Yoga. The staff is very helpful and friendly and the 24/7 access is perfect. I never thought weight lifting would be so much fun and Joel's is very well equipped. Can you please buy a "abductor machine" ?

Positive experience: I only joined Joel's Gym a few months ago, very cautiously thinking I would be the oldest person in the gym. What I was to discover was many like-minded people enjoying exercise and comradery. For less than half the price I was used to paying, I am enjoying around 8 classes per week and doing my own weights & cardio sessions as well. I feel I am getting fitter, stronger and more flexible as the weeks go by. A big thanks to Joel, Stacey and crew for guiding me on my journey for health and well-being.

Tony Bennett 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Joel is very friendly and always ready to talk to you about your fitness needs. Every week I attend step, cardio and aerobics classes which are great. Instructors are very good and understand that everyone has different levels of fitness and degree of injury they are carrying. They provide various options for exercise to ensure we all get the best result for ourselves.

Ron Russell 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Average Joel's Gym for many years now and even before it was named Average Joel's Gym. I have watched Joel develop and renovate the gym at quite some cost and he isn't stopping there. The range of equipment and facilities are first class but most of all, Joel and his staff are great people. Their systems and processes are easy to follow and are customer oriented. I really like the way they communicate with members to keep them up to date with what is happening and for new offerings. Good thing too is that it is 24/7.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant. Visiting family on Bribie for a couple of weeks and so happy to have found this spot. Clean, good music, incredible selection of equipment and Joel and his team couldn’t be more welcoming. People of all ages and fitness levels in there getting trained. Wish there was a Joel’s back home!

Fantastic experience: Best gym on the island by far! Plenty of room and equipment. It’s very clean as the owner uses a 10litres of bleach each clean! Nice friendly staff and members. It would be nice to meet another member under the age of 130years old, but that’s the island! The owner is a top bloke easy going and has the best looking chicken legs on the island! Thanks Joel and team for providing such a pleasant Gym.
