The Weight Is Over Academy: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I love coming to the classes. The group of people is awesome, it's great experience... We are all different, yet we have a same goal to get healthy and get fitter. When I started in October 2024, I couldn't achieve much... 5 push ups was a struggle, 200m of run hard work... I can run 5km confidently without stopping, jump up a box or do 20 push ups without passing out. Our coaches do amazing jobs to help us on our route... My mental health improved massively, there are things I cannot do yet, but know I will get there one day.... Thank you

Fantastic experience: This facility has been transformative. Prior to joining, I had never found exercise enjoyable. However, after attending multiple times per week for fourteen months, I've experienced significant positive changes in both my physical and mental well-being. The supportive community and exceptional coaching staff have been instrumental in the accomplishments I have achieved so far. If you're on the fence, like I was at first, all I can say is come and give it a go.

Fantastic experience: This group exercise class is a fantastic way to improve body and mind in an extremely supportive and friendly environment. Each session is carefully structured and cracks on with such a pace that you are constantly achieving small targets to build up strength and resistance. Chris and Steve are always on hand with advice and extra support. I love it - Chris has created a fun environment with an underlying rigorous and serious focus on driving us on to create our better bodies. Also a nutrition plan available.

Fantastic experience: I am so pleased I became a part of this group. Chris is great at helping you to work on your mindset to overcome some of your ‘barriers’ to becoming the healthiest (and happiest) version of you. He challenges you at the perfect level in the fitness classes and provides support every step of the way. This isn’t just an ‘academy’, it’s a community of fab people all helping to make the weight loss journey that little bit more achievable and fun along the way. I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of joining :)

Fantastic experience: I’m so glad I joined TWIO. Not only have I met some amazing people but I have also achieved way more than I thought I could with my fitness journey. The coaches are brilliant at tailoring their advice to support exactly what you are focusing on, and also at always pushing you that bit extra.

Anita Higgins 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: 5 star. Best weight loss academy i have ever been too. Chris is kind, patient but pushes us when needed. It is amazing being with just others who know what your going through on our weight loss journeys without feeling i should be there. I feel i belong and never judged for being overweight but encouraged and pushed to be the best I can. Best place ever. Thanks Chris

Tina Hoare 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Joined the group 3 weeks ago and omg I can't believe the transformation already. I have lost 16lbs and 15 inches . I have cooked like never before all fresh ingredients which my husband is enjoying as well. Although I have struggled a little with certain exercises I have learnt to adapt them to suit me and my body and its working. People have noticed my changes which are very rewarding and flattering. The classes are great not only to keep you on track but they have become a social event where I have met some really great people some of which I admire greatly . Chris is a fantastic coach he gives great encouragement to everyone he is always there for advice and guidance anytime night or day . I would highly recommend this journey Tina x

Fantastic experience: Read Chris's book in one day and really wanted to work with him. Love his philosophy. I'm the sort of person who knows what to do, just struggle to do it. He's the first person who managed to get me over the hump.
