I’ve been a member of PureGym Stirling for around 10 years, and for most of that time it’s been a reliable, convenient place to train with access to a wide variety of equipment. Unfortunately, over the past year, the standards have declined significantly—particularly when it comes to cleanliness and hygiene. On multiple occasions recently, the toilet areas have been left in an unacceptable state, including instances of human faeces not being properly cleaned. The sinks have also frequently been covered in beard trimmings, and I’ve seen used tissues and traces of blood left behind. This isn’t just unpleasant—it raises serious health concerns.Bodily fluids such as blood can carry pathogens. Used tissues and general poor sanitation can also contribute to the spread of viruses and infections, especially in a high-traffic environment like a gym where people are already in close contact with shared equipment. For a facility that serves so many members daily, maintaining proper hygiene standards is essential. It not only affects the overall experience but also the health and safety of everyone using the space. I hope management takes these concerns seriously and addresses them promptly, as this gym has the potential to be a great facility again with the right attention to cleanliness and upkeep.
I LOVE Stirling PureGym. It’s been my home gym, my community and my safe space for years now. I’ve learned so much, built a great group of friends and developed my training to a point that I’m now looking to become a PT myself. I can’t undersell how amazing the staff are. Colin and Chloe run a tight ship. The team are awesome, with experts in almost everything between them. I can’t recommend the place enough 💪🏻
I’ve been a member at PureGym Stirling for years and I absolutely love it. The staff are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and always happy to help. The equipment is modern, plentiful, and the gym is consistently very clean. My personal trainer, Mel, is absolutely amazing — I’ve loved every minute of my fitness journey with her. I couldn’t recommend this gym and Mel enough!
PureGym has honestly been a great place to train. The space is huge, spread over three floors, and there’s usually plenty equipment free even- some times can be really busy especially as we get into January though! I really love the studio on the top floor — the darker lighting makes it a perfect spot if you’re feeling a bit overstimulated or just want a calmer, low-sensory environment for your workout. The staff are all genuinely lovely and always happy to help, and there are some fantastic PTs based here too. I’ve been training with Mel (@melpt_fituk) for three years now, and she has been such a major part of my fitness journey. My confidence — both in myself and in the gym — has grown massively since working with her. I’m so much stronger, I understand what I’m doing, and I actually enjoy pushing myself. Some sessions have basically doubled as therapy sessions (in the best way), and Mel has been nothing but supportive, empathetic, and encouraging throughout. She’s an incredible PT and an even better human. Highly recommend the gym — and especially Mel if you’re looking for a PT who genuinely cares and helps you level up in every way.
I’ve been training at PureGym for a while now, and honestly it’s been one of the best choices I’ve made for my fitness. The gym is always clean, there’s loads of equipment even during busier times, and the atmosphere is really motivating without feeling intimidating. A special shoutout to Leah — she’s been incredible. Friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive, she creates such a positive vibe every time she’s around. Whether it’s helping with technique, offering advice, or just bringing good energy to the gym floor, Leah honestly makes the experience 10 times better. If you’re looking for a gym with great facilities and staff who actually care, PureGym is a solid choice.
