David Lloyd

Nationwide

Punching higher than the average health chain, while still keeping its memberships affordable, David Lloyd could be described as ‘boutique on a budget’ – with pools, spas, spin classes and a few new class concepts available to members.

Its latest class offering, Delta (no relation to the variant, we presume), is a six-week fitness programme in which you’re put through your paces with a select group of like-minded people. The chain is also expanding its outdoor provisions with Battlebox: all-weather, bootcamp-style circuits.

Then, when you’re done breaking a sweat, break out your laptop in one of the gym’s ‘business lounges’, which are quiet with desk space, fast wifi and, crucially, lunch.
