Goodlife Health Clubs

Look, this gym and its facilities are actually on the nicer end and for the most part, well maintained.
The reason for my low review is the nonsense rule about having to wear shoes at all times.
Now I understand wearing shoes while resting and walking around the gym. But when I train legs. During the period of my set, I need the stability of my foot to the floor.
I can give multiple reasons as to why this is important.
However when I ask the reason as to why this rule is in place.
They says Its just management policy.
And when I ask why is this not the same at all goodlife gyms. They say that it is when the reality is that it's not.

Now there was situation where I was doing dead lifts and was attempting a PB.
While I was resting, Two the gym staff stood near by and waited for me to start my set.
I waited to see if they would just simply leave and when I realised they weren't going too. I decided to attempt my set with my shoes on.
Bad choice as I almost fell forward when attempting to do this.
So I kicked off my shoes and finished the set.
While doing so I felt two of my disk pop in my back. Most likely because I did not reset my positioning from my first attempt. - Instantly after, Those two staff came over to tell me off.
Admittedly They did so politely and I appreciate that but it's still nonsense as they can't give me a good reason why.

My work around this is that I won't be coming back here to train legs and do not recommend anyone who trains with proper stability and technique to train legs here either.

This review does not reflect on all good life gyms as there are many who do not enforce this rediculas rule.

And if it was not for the way the staff acted like police. My review would be very different as the nice things about this gym are lost due to this incident.

My view have not changed since my last review, I think Goodlife Bundall is a great gym and I wouldn't think of going anywhere else

Terrible! Specially the receptionists. They don't know what they say and don't know how to deal with public. Gym Completely packed. Not enough equipment. I don't recommend. We have done a trail and we are glad we did not enroll.

GoodLife Health Clubs has the most fantastic array of classes. The state-of-the-art facilities and supportive staff make each workout enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Absolutely love this gym, very friendly staff at the desk and the trainers are awesome in the group fitness class.

When Reformer Pilates started at Goodlife Bundall, I was very excited. I have done many classes now with corrections and guidance from the amazing instructors. I have found one of my Happy places. Come and join me for one of the many classes on offer.

A very spacious Gym. Plenty of space to park your car, and you can still have a decent workout even when it is during peak times. Sauna is an option, and works just great.

Love good life and all its gyms they could fix equipment quicker and replace broken or old equipment also quicker. But besides that think they are awesome and run really well. I really don't know how anyone can have any serious compliaints. But we all know a lot of people are drama queens.

Terrible gym. Worse by far on the northern side of the Gold Coast.
Staff are very rude. I noticed the staff member Amy was laughing at overweight members, she lacks empathy and a genuine, normal personality. I hope she does better in the future with maintaining her ego.

Good classes and training areas
But the stuff that is on the reception hasn't been nice. The times I have asked for something, I have not had a friendly answer; I get to the point of avoiding asking questions regardless of my subscription.

Gym isn't that bad. It's mostly clean and tidy but little things like under the weights, high up on machines and corners of the gym being dusty could be worked on.

It has most of the equipment needed, except for the cable machines. Why is there never any handles or ropes available? They're cheap. I'm sure a couple of extra sets and replacing the rope that looks like it's about to split couldn't hurt. And some mirrors would be nice. It's nice to be able to watch yourself and work on your form. The squat racks look at a block wall.

Peak hours get busy. Like real busy. You will be able to find a machine but prepare to be flexible with what you intend to workout. You have to hover around the cable machines like a hawk if you want to use them during peak hour.

Your not tripping over tripods everywhere which is a nice changing.

As for the contracts I suggest to read carefully. Can be hell getting out of them. Ask questions and keep a copy for yourself. It is nice to be able to bring a friend for free every Friday Saturday or Sunday, though they will get spammed with marketing messages.

Horrible experience at Goodlife Bundall. I was extremely disappointed with the level of professionalism demonstrated by both the staff on the front desk and the management of the club from signing up to cancelling.

Furthermore, I received a call from them (I didn't have the number saved), and when I answered, the person on the other end asked if I was dead! This type of behavior is absolutely unacceptable.

I do not recommend Goodlife Bundall, it’s the worst gym I’ve ever been to.

Love this club, reform pilates classes are so good for my age.
Also, l have opportunities go to different places and do different classes. Varieties, flexibility, good teachers, good membership prices.

I thoroughly enjoy and recommend Goodlife Bundall, their service, staff, and facilities are excellent, parking, atmosphere, variety of equipment is exceptional, very happy with my gym, I especially enjoy the boxing area, thank you for opening that area up!

Poor customer service staff- Scott.

I visited goodlife Bundall to ask a representative about membership plans, what the gym had to offer and gain a feel for the atmosphere. I was looking for friendliness in their staff and a welcoming environment.

What I received from Scott was a psychological interrogation and what felt like judgement surrounding my intentions of joining the gym. Even saying “why are you here” after I’d already explained why I want to join. There was no sense of friendliness at all, even going as far as saying that it is not the job of staff to to assist with questions about the machines, that is a service offered by personal trainers at an additional cost.

I will not be joining, and discourage anyone looking from doing so too. There are plenty of other gyms close by with much better attitudes

The gym has potential yet lacks that certain class you would expect of it. The men's sauna almost consistently smells putrid sweat and despite many attempts to let staff know.nothing seems to be done unless a few of us complain. Apart from that, there are too many treadmills and not enough modern machines and benches meaning you will stand in a que for sure during popular hours. They are not restricting their numbers either (memberships selling faster than available key cards) so it is poised to get worse. If you can sign up elsewhere that claims to be fancy and fresh, do it. If you cannot, well.consider this a second rate fancy place with lots of varieties of exercises available if you are willing to pay lots and lots of money.

I do cycle classes at this gym Thursday and Saturday. This space is huge and extremely well looked after. The spaces are clean. The staff are approachable and helpful. There are some very fit people that go here but what I like is that it very clear that thus place is for every age and every level of fitness.

I would highly recommend Goodlife health clubs to everyone. I use 2 other Goodlife centre's to chase the cycle/rpm classes. I love the music and the energy in the classes. I think if we could hook up those bikes to the grid we could power a city. Libby is an amazing instructor shoulder to shoulder with every other instructor that is there!

Get fit Australia with goodlife health clubs!

Great club, awesome arena fitness area, the arena fitness coaches, Muay Thai Coach and BJJ coaches are so lovely. Ladies on reception are always friendly and every pt says hello. Very comfortable training here in this gym. It will be my local.

Good life at bundall is one of the cleanest gyms I've ever stepped foot into, the staff are approachable and supportive even when you aren't paying for their personal time which is refreshing.

We would like to thank Natalie for great tabata/hit classes, Natalie made each class interesting and she wore us out lol we look forward to more classes with her in the new year, Lynn and Scott
