One of the best gyms around.
- Amazing equipment that is kept serviceable and fixed quickly when breakdowns happen (personally never seen something out of order for more than a week when it rarely happens).
- Incredible facilities and services on offer including traditional saunas, posing room (my favorite), virtual cycle class and group fitness which is all included with standard membership
- Very cheap and fair pricing
- The best Protien smoothies around (highly recommended the Oreo one)
- Friendly staff and members who always say hello and bye as you pass and are always up for a chat
Highly recommend this gym for anyone either starting their fitness journey or looking to upgrade their gym

Emma at Fitness Cartel Aspley is absolutely incredible and one of the main reasons the gym has such a welcoming and positive atmosphere. From day one, she has always been friendly, approachable, and genuinely supportive. She goes out of her way to make everyone feel comfortable and motivated, no matter their fitness level.
Her professionalism, energy, and dedication to helping members really stand out. Whether she’s answering questions, offering encouragement, or just greeting people with a smile, Emma consistently provides outstanding customer service. She creates an environment that makes coming to the gym enjoyable and motivating.
Fitness Cartel Aspley is very lucky to have someone as passionate and hardworking as Emma on their team. Highly recommend this gym, especially because of the amazing staff and service she provides!

I was very nervous and anxious about joining a gym after seeing people's bad experiences online, for example being photographed and made fun of online, I was especially anxious as I am an amputee. I got a taste of what gym life was like while in the hospital during rehab and I loved it that much that I wanted to join a gym. I decided to go and visit Fitness Cartel Health Clubs at Aspley and spoke to Paris. After about 20 minutes I was much calmer and decided to join there and then. The staff are very friendly and approachable, even the scary ones 😂, the equipment is new and easy to use and the environment is very relaxed and welcoming, makes me want to come back again and again. So glad that I didn't let fear stop me from joining a gym, very happy that I chose Fitness Cartel as the gym I joined. I highly recommend this gym, thank you 😊

I can’t speak highly enough of the creche team — especially Indi and Kareem on the afternoon shift. They truly go above and beyond for my kids and every other child in their care. They know my children so well, make them feel happy and safe, and always greet them with genuine warmth.
What makes it extra special is that they also take the time to check in on me — a small gesture that means so much and shows just how thoughtful and caring they are. If you’re considering putting your child in creche while you get your gym fix after a long day, you honestly couldn’t ask for better carers than Indi and Kareem. 💛
A special shout-out also goes to Jaylen and Andre at reception — always friendly, welcoming, and delivering incredible customer service. They make every visit a positive experience from the moment you walk in the door.

I'd like to give a shoutout to Drew, who works as a Sales Representative for Fitness Cartel
I've been to World's Gym, Anytime Fitness, Jetts, Snap Fitness and YMCA gym's in the past, however haven't experienced the level of customer service shown, or depth of tailoring a workout schedule finally suited to me, the way Drew has done. I believe she goes above and beyond her responsibilities at Fitness Cartel, and I just wanted to publicly acknowledge that it's very much appreciated from myself and others she helped along the way
Fitness Cartel Aspley is A1, the culture is great, the environment and gym equipment available is second to none
Also shoutout to Tori in Reception, the whole team is super friendly/supportive in anyone achieving their workout goals
Sign up with these guys, they're the best doing it - Jake

I’ve been going to Fitness Cartel Aspley for a little under a year since moving to the area, and have gone nearly every day since joining. You can tell that the staff takes a lot of pride in the place because it’s always extremely clean and welcoming, regardless of the time of day or how crowded it is.
All of the staff is excellent as well, but I’d like to give a shout out to Emma specifically. Emma is always super kind and helpful, always takes time to chat and check in on my experience, and makes the best smoothie this side of the river. Highly recommend this place, and thanks Emma for making the experience of a big box gym so much better.

Fitness Cartel is a great gym for anyone under 18 because it offers a safe, supportive environment with beginner-friendly equipment and helpful staff. The gym promotes healthy habits early on and encourages consistency. I recommend joining their teen-specific group classes—they’re fun, motivating, and a great way to meet new friends.
These classes help teens stay active while learning proper form and building confidence. The atmosphere is energetic but never intimidating, making it easy to stick with a fitness routine. With flexible hours and clean, modern facilities, Fitness Cartel makes it simple for young people to prioritize their health and well-being.

In the years I have been going to different gyms - Fitness Cartel is by far the best gym. You can find everything under 1 roof. From when I made my first enquiry online, Sarah contacted me within minutes - after the first meet and greet I signed up on the same day.
You can definitely feel the positive vibe from the moment you step in the door.
Never in my life I did any classes until now. Euan, Mel and Sally are so encouraging and supportive and makes you feel included.
When is comes to supplements and recommendations - Alex has been incredible. Literally will sit and take the time to run through different supplements and recommend nothing but the best.
Best GYM EVER !!!
~ Adelphia F
Came in as a casual visit! This gym has a great health and fitness vibe! Really friendly, helpful reception staff. Made me feel welcome (could have stayed chatting all day). Excellent gym equipment!! Great selection of different equipment and plenty of it. Clean, spacious and accessible. I was happy with the lay out but that’s personal between individuals, suited me perfectly. PTs friendly and not aggressive sales agents. They clear work on building relationships. Low level lighting created a great ambiance/ atmosphere. Don’t feel intimidated and could train comfortably without feeling exposed. Overall great experience!! 11 out of 10.
~ Scott L
Amazing, gym amazing facilities. Ronan is hands down one of the best receptionists at Fitness Cartel Aspley. Always welcoming, always smiling, and genuinely makes everyone feel comfortable the second they walk through the doors. Super friendly, professional, and somehow remembers everyone like you’re a regular.
Not to mention the bloke is ridiculously handsome, which honestly just adds to the elite customer service experience 😂
You can tell he actually cares about the members and the vibe of the gym. Absolute legend and a huge asset to the team.

I have going to Fitness Cartel for a few months now and can confidently say I’ve made the right choice. First impressions of the gym came down to equipment and facility’s which there is an abundance of for both training of all sorts and recovery. As I continued to train here I got time to meet the staff as well as the community who also attends here and have recommended this gym to many of my friends and family due to the friendly, approachable and helpful nature of everyone.
Whether you’re a bigger or have been training for a while, you can quickly find a place to call home here.

I left my previous gym to follow my PT. Since joining Fitness Cartel, I haven't been disappointed. (Except after my first workout session we went into a 2 week lockdown) The team there are very friendly and professional. The gym equipment, the fit out, the atmosphere and the decor would put allot of other large chain gyms to shame. Also I have been with PT Jacob for 12 months and I am still getting amazing results while enjoying my work out experience with an expert trainer. Furthermore gym membership is well priced in comparison to allot of the large chain gyms.

I had such a positive experience with the friendly staff at FC Aspley, especially Kareem. He was professional, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure the children felt safe and comfortable. I appreciated how approachable he was, and his eagerness to help. It’s clear he takes pride in his role and brings great energy to the gym. His support made my experience so much more enjoyable, and I’d definitely recommend Fitness Cartel Aspley because of the incredible team. I am sure many of the other parents will definitely agree with me 🙂

I had a Pilates class this morning with Toni Thwaites and it was amazing!! I’m fairly new to this and have had 6 classes so far, just want to shout out because Toni was incredible and it was the hardest but best class I’ve had by far.
Fitness Cartel Aspley has been amazing since before I signed up. Cannot thank the team enough for their kindness and support to everyone that walks in the doors! They also have a crèche with the sweetest carers who all hold blue cards. It’s a great experience and very comfortable!
~ Miss R
I recently joined the Fitness Cartel Aspley and is by far the best and fully equipped gym I have ever trained at.
Cecilia from the sales team was very helpful, professional and was happy to answer all questions I had regarding membership
Cecilia was very thorough and made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived and took me through the gym and facilities
I highly recommend seeing Cecilia and joining the fitness cartel, all the staff and members are friendly, the atmosphere is amazing and you won’t want to leave.

Been a member of Fitness Cartel - Health Club (Aspley) now for the last 12 months along with my two teenage kids and my six-year-old son who goes to kids club and we absolutely love it as a family. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, the personal trainers are very knowledgeable and awesome. The facilities / gym are clean, well maintained and state of the art equipment. There are tons of group classes covering all the disciplines you would want. All this makes the gym experience at Fitness Cartel - Health Club (Aspley) first class.
~ Jason M
Okay, you can have massive floor space and a copious range equipment but sometimes a great gym often starts at reception. And on that note, Aspley Fitness Cartel goes down as one of the best. A massive shout out to Shenay who is not only friendly and engaging but also professional, a problem solver and a perfect advertisement for the brand. No matter what time of the day, and there are some early mornings, she is consistently welcoming and an absolute pro.
~ Nick P
Incredible gym, great class schedule and always lots of equipment available. Always super clean and a great gym to be part of. My daughter absolutely loves coming to the crèche - special thanks to Indi and Kareem. They are so warm, caring and attentive. I feel really lucky knowing she’s in such good hands each day after a not great experience elsewhere and they’re just as much part of my experience each week as they are my daughters! Thank you Aspley!
~ Clair J
I joined the gym about a month ago and couldn’t be more happier! The facilities, classes, saunas and of course the protein shakes after workouts, you truly get the full experience. I want to give a special shout out to Aiden and the FCT classes each week. Aiden goes above and beyond, and has built an incredible community in the FCT classes, ensuring everyone is smashing their individual goals and creating a team work environment. Could not recommend enough!👌
~ Lucy R
Fitness Cartel is a great gym because it offers a well-rounded and supportive environment for all fitness levels. The gym is equipped with state-of-the-art machines, free weights, and functional training areas, ensuring that members have everything they need to meet their goals—whether they're beginners or seasoned athletes. In addition to quality equipment, Fitness Cartel also provides a wide variety of group classes, from high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to yoga, helping members stay motivated and engaged in their routines.
Another reason Fitness Cartel stands out is its strong focus on community and support. The staff and personal trainers are not only knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in helping members succeed. The gym fosters a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere that encourages people to push themselves while feeling comfortable and respected. With flexible membership options and clean, spacious facilities, Fitness Cartel makes it easy for members to stay consistent and committed to their health and fitness journey.

Was recommended to go to this gym by a friend and was nervous because I am not young or fit. From the moment I went into the gym I was made to feel welcome and the nerves just left me. Super friendly staff, very knowledgeable, patient and definately next level!!! Have been to other gyms and this is absolutely my go to place. I would highly recommend to anyone even thinking of joining a gym - all ages and fitness levels. Just love this place!!!
~ Debbie C
Great gym that caters for all with equipment specifically for fitness, athletes, physique, bodybuilding and every type in between. They also have great amenities and a sauna, as well as great staff and PT's. I have particurlarly enjoyed a good health and fitness relationship with Jaylen, a PT from FC Aspley and find his approach and dedication to helping his clients and anyone else that approaches him, above and beyond my expectations.
~ Jeff B
I have been a member at dozens of gyms over the past 30 years and FC is hands down the best. It combines all aspects of what is great and offers this from one facility. Good people, cafe, creche, large spaces, good equipment and first class facilities, sauna, bathrooms, etc. I also like the dimmed lighting, it provides a casual / calm element to the place that other gyms with 10K lumen lighting lack.
