The Good Stuff
Long hours
The gym is reported to be open 24/7, including when the mall is closed, which suits early or late training.
Parking
Multiple reviews mention free or plentiful parking, making visits easier if you are driving.
Spacious layout
Reviewers describe the facility as huge, clean and not too crowded, with enough equipment to reduce waiting.
Training support
Customers describe the coaching as attentive to form, motivating and useful for measurable strength and conditioning progress.
Quiet atmosphere
One review found the atmosphere friendly and quiet, while other customers described the staff as welcoming and helpful.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm access. Before paying, ask exactly which areas your membership includes, especially the main workout floor and women’s-only facilities.
Check amenities. Confirm pool, cold plunge and sauna availability when booking; earlier reviews reported some facilities had not opened.
Inspect machines. Try the machines you plan to use and check alignment, as one review found some slightly misaligned.
Check showers. If showering on-site matters, inspect them before joining; one complaint specifically described conditions at 6:30am.
Clarify cancellation. Ask for the signed contract, cancellation terms and billing documents before subscribing, particularly if your circumstances may change.
Plan parking. Driving is practical: reviews describe free, safe or plentiful parking, so you do not need to build in a parking search.

The Bottom Line
I Forma Gym is a large Al Warqa facility aimed at people who want plenty of strength-training choice. Reviews mention a long list of squat machines, including Hack Squat, Belt Squat, V-Squat and Pendulum Squat, alongside free weights and cardio equipment. The reported scale means you are less likely to wait for a machine, although quality and maintenance feedback is mixed.
The gym is reported to operate 24/7, even when the surrounding mall is closed, and driving is convenient thanks to reviews mentioning free, safe or plentiful parking. Several customers also describe the space as clean, organised, quiet and not too crowded. Coaching is another recurring strength, with reviewers praising attention to form, motivation and progress.
Pool, cold plunge and sauna access are mentioned, but the wording “available at booking” matters: older reviews said the pool, steam room and sauna were still awaiting opening. Confirm what is operating on the day you visit. Shower hygiene is a more consistent caution, with complaints about dirty facilities and water pooling on the floor.
Women should also clarify access before paying. One review said the main workout area was men-only without clear disclosure before joining, while another requested a separate entrance for privacy. Get the contract, cancellation terms and billing documents in writing before subscribing.
