The 30 Best Workout gear in Manchester

“Very good customer service, top quality products. Would definitely recommend”

“Great gym, great people and a great atmosphere! Lessons catered for beginners with no previous experience all the way up to active fighters! If you’re looking for a fun way to get fit whilst learning new, effective combat techniques then look no further! City Centre location with classes starting from 17:30pm onwards so it won’t mess with your work hours!”

“Absolutely nice place to exercise or enjoy swimming. The facility is new and very clear. Only thing is they don't have swimsuit dryer.”

“I went for a gait analysis today at runners need, we just turned up not realising they did actually have an appointment system, their next appointment wasn’t until later that day and the shop wasn’t busy at the time we went in so the guy happily did the gait analysis. I have never had one before and wasn’t sure what to expect apart from running on a treadmill, the guy who did the analysis was very knowledgeable and very thorough, he was very helpful and I felt confident he knew what he was talking about and felt confident enough to take his advice!! As it turns out I have been running in shoes that are 1.5 sizes too small, hence all the problems I have been having! I wanted to leave this review as there are so many bad ones and had I read these before I probably wouldn’t have gone there. Don’t be put off by all the bad reviews!!!”

“I only use the sauna and the steam cabin usually (when I have time for a visit), but far the best of all Village Gyms in Manchester, even if this is a bit smaller. Nice and calm atmosphere and very kind staff.”

“You can do kendo with nice people. I can feel respect and caring.”

“Oh my Zana leggings and Evangeline and Alyssa tops are just what I was hoping for. This brand had been recommended and I am so pleased I made the purchases...comfort, flexible movement, no underwear visibility, washes beautifully. The material is fantastic. Running/pilates/loungewear. I now want more!”

“Great shop with a great selection of nutrition supplements and different flavour, protein products, and much more. I have had a couple of No-Gi grappling kits off Sam and wrestling boots all top quality fight wear.”

“Bought a range of Airofin items (jersey/winter jersey/bib leggins/bib shorts) for cycling as I was in need of some new gear. Really pleased with all of it. Good prices but still a step up from the standard dhb gear. The jacket is the perfect length but not at all baggy and the bib shorts are much more comfortable than my last pair as the padding covers a bigger area. Overall really pleased with this gear. Would recommend. Some really good discounts on the website right now also.”

“Excellent service. Responded when I asked for assistance with sizing. Good quality product and dispatched promptly. Very satisfied and I would use the company again.”

“I've been taking my 4 year old grandson Jensen to Liam's LITTLE TIGERS Classes on a Saturday Morning at 9am for the past month, what a joy it is to see him taking part in all the Fun that Liam adds to his classes, he's fantastic with all the kids, helping them to follow his instruction while gently getting them to listen and learn his basic lessons. I know Jensen looks forward to it every saturday.”

“I've been training with Frank's for over 2 years. It's the best martial arts training I've ever had in my 15 years of experience. Excellent facilities with top, professional coaching. They are there to get you fit, improve your skills and support you along the way.”

“Fantastically friendly and knowledgeable staff, went in today for some new running trainers as mine were old and giving me issues, explained this to the gent who served me, and after assessing my feet and gait he was able to explain exactly what was causing my issues and offer me trainers that matched my needs. I feel very very chuffed with the service i received and the pricing matches that of many other retailers so well worth a visit! 11/10 would recommend!”

“We visited the shop today and were extremely happy with the service we received. They were very knowledgeable and friendly. We went in for football boots and the owner gave my children tennis balls for free and even played 'football' with my son. It started to rain lightly when we were leaving and they even offered to lend us an umbrella. We will definitely go back again.”

“Gemma was awesome. Really knows her stuff and went above and beyond to explain all of the equipment and options to make sure we were informed to make the best decisions. All with a cheery and happy disposition.”

“Great service provided by Alan, helped my partner choose the right choice of footwear. He was very informative and knowledgeable about the different shoes and what would work best for her. Would highly recommend!”

“I went to the shop with a good idea of what I wanted to buy. I was given good advice and had a nice chat with the 2 blokes in there. This is the kind of sports shop that every town used to have. You can't beat face to face advice and being able to see and touch what you are buying. They stock a wide range of equipment. Brilliant.”

“I can't recommend this company high enough. I needed to purchase a New Liverpool Jersey last minute so went on Amazon. The delivery under express service was 2 - 3 days, so I decided to contact A & A sports directly and see if I could get it sooner. I spoke with a brilliant gentleman who sent the Jersey on next day delivery. Amazing, friendly and professional service to say the least.”

“I Honestly had a wonderful time. Prices were pretty transparent; 10 quid to enter, 10 quid for basic dance, 20 quid for a topless dance & 50 quid for a full nude 15 min dance. I'm from Toronto and not Manchester but the rules are a bit different for strip clubs in the UK. For example there isn't any touching allowed. This made my dance feel pretty awkward since I'm not used to that rule. You also have to pay before you get your dance. This is pretty good since I know i wont get overcharged for the dance. Getting overcharged is common in Toronto. Dancers also make a weird sound when they finish a private dance with you. I find this kind of funny. The dancers are also great at having a conversation. Overall this place is a pretty good vibe if you're bored with nothing to do”

“I want to share my exceptional experience. I purchased a pair of mens workout/lounge bottoms a few years ago whilst I was in New Zealand but a few months ago the material on one of the legs separated (looked like it was glued together, not stitched) and one of the pocket zips had broke. I spoke to the online chat (not the most helpful with understanding my issue), who eventually directed me to visit my nearest store as they would be able to help. I live in Plymouth with my nearest store being either in London or Manchester, so when I was in Manchester I thought I would try my luck and take them into the store to see if they could be repaired. A lady with the initials AD (sorry I cannot remember your name) was very friendly and welcoming helped me. She clearly told me what to possibly expect from a repair and how long it would take. I mentioned that I live in Plymouth so wouldn't be back in Manchester for a while, to which she said that they can post it back to me which was great. She also said that the service is free of charge (including the postage), which I was not expecting at all, but with the service I received I will definitely buy more from lululemon in the future. Thank you again for your help AD, it is greatly appreciated!”

“Amy and her supervisor (didn’t get the name but a lovely gentleman) helped me so much for a perfect gift for my mother for christmas, i couldn’t thank them enough. So refreshing to see this type of customer service. Thank you guys and merry christmas!”

“One conspicuous feeling you have in this store is how Neat the floor is. It's well ventilated and well lit here. They are well stocked. I went here to see the pharmacist for my Yellow fever vaccine which I had booked in advance from their website. They were very polite and explained stuff to me well. I would always recommend Boots to everyone.”

“Good quality cloths. nice service.”

“The most wonderful sales assistant who helped me find the perfect outfit. She was kind and helpful without being pushy for a sale. The store is in the third floor of Selfridges. I always love their products, super comfy yoga pants.”

“Excellent products but unfortunately left one behind and can't get there until next week,phoned number can't help as it's a inshore problem.”

“Great quality of krav maga and quick response .”

“Beautiful modern store! The layout is great with plenty of space to move around. The store is really big and is set across 5 floors with Game on the top floor. There is also Belong gaming arena for esports and video games. Helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommend visiting”
