Fantastic experience: Been going to the gym for a year or so and it’s been nothing but awesome! Great team, equipment and always tidy.

Negative experience: Would not recommend inception gym for several reasons. After being a member of various gyms over the last 25yrs, this is the only gym that I have been driven to requested that my contact be terminated before finishing the 12-month term. After 6 months of being a member, I found that I had lost the enjoyment and buzz that went along with a gym training session here. I believe their own description of having “meticulously maintained facilities and unparalleled fitness experience” is an exaggeration. Both treadmills are dangerous, the belts will slip when you jog on them and even feel unsteady to walk on them. When you report it, they get fixed for a short time then it starts again. Both the spin bikes seat heigh adjusting bolts are always stripped. When I have reported this, I keep getting told they are waiting for replacement parts to arrive, and they are coming from Europe (they both have been broken pretty much all of 2024). Cables are often slack in the cable machine resulting in them getting wedged in the pully system. Their response was poor when emailed re terminating my membership (they only replied once to the 3 emails I sent them). I highlighted my dissatisfaction with the gym, how I did not feel they were maintaining the gym to a standard that I expect for my membership fees. They did not acknowledge any of my concerns in their reply just “Here is a breakdown of your cancellation fee’s, Cancellation as of today would be:” ………………………. “Cheers” Be careful, they do have a “gotcha” in the sign up in contract. The One free Inception Labs product when you sign a 12-month contact, you must pay full RRP if to want to exit the contract early despite the fact you get “exclusive supplement discounts”. Given this, it was more expensive for me to cancel the membership than just let it run out (even though they were so nicely only going to charge me for 50% of my fees that I had paid during the 2 weeks that I waited for them to reply to my original email). I advised them 2 months before the end of my 12-month fixed contract that at the end of that period I did not want to continue (so I did not have to pay for the free supplement). They tried to tell me then that, the 28 days notification of cancelling my membership would be actioned ONLY AFTER I had completed the 12-month period (essentially charging me for 13 months). When I questioned this, I was advised it was a stock standard practice. They did rectify this later after I strongly challenged that decision with them. I don’t know how many other people they may have got with that one. Given it was not financially viable for me to cancel my membership, I have let my membership run out (given it feels like they only want my cash anyway) and joined another gym.

Fantastic experience: Amazing Gym so clean and tidy, team are so helpful especially with recommendations of supplements that are tailored to your needs. Always happy to see you.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Never overly busy, would 100% recommend to anyone looking at any level. Always room for improvement here

Negative experience: Used to go here, wouldn’t recommend to anyone! Equipment is all from Alibaba, meant for home gym use. Everything constantly fell apart/ wasn’t replaced properly. Plus, if you like to dabble in a bit of cardio, the treadmills here shake as you walk, which is just lovely… It’s a waste of money! Plenty of other gyms around Christchurch that are worth signing up to! Don’t waste your time here.

Fantastic experience: I joined inception a little while ago looking for somewhere that was 24/7, has a wide range of equipment as well as a supportive community - I have found it here and am loving it. Clean tidy and organised which makes it so easy to move through sets without running around too much. Staff are super friendly & helpful, always smiling and encouraging. I look forward to continue training at Inception :)

Fantastic experience: I recently tried the pre-workout from this brand, and I have to say, it's been a game-changer for my workouts. Not only does it taste great, but it's also surprisingly affordable, which is always a plus. What I love most about it is the burst of energy and the incredible pump it gives me, making every session at the gym feel like a breeze. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to take their fitness journey to the next level. Plus, this brand offers a wide variety of other supplements, so you can easily find everything you need in one place. It's definitely become my go-to spot for all my fitness essentials. ️‍♂️

Fantastic experience: Had a free trial of the gym, really good equipment thats always kept tidy and clean . Deciding to grab a membership here because it’s at a relatively affordable price and not too busy at any given time of the day as well. The lighting in the gym is also very good. Also cool how they have an in gym supplement soot where you could grab stuff at a solid price if you ever run out as well as a dexa scan to get a bodyfat percentage for free if you are a member.
