Origin Athletic: Opinions

5/5 (20 Opinions)
James Anscomb 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Incredible is honestly an understatement. The coaches are all top notch, they help you push yourself without being pushy and are all great human beings to boot. I got hooked after a free 7 day trial! I’ve learnt so many new skills and seen such a an improvement in my fitness in just 6 months. I’d never trained in group environments or even around people who would talk to each other but now would totally miss this element if I went back to a standard gym. The facilities are second to none and so well maintained/cleaned. The best part is the community in the gym. There’s a diverse bunch but with the shared love for fitness but also having fun at the same time! I’m sadly moving away and will miss the gym and the people inside it so much but I know I’ve got a group of friends there every time I come back to Bristol moving forward! Big shoutout to all the coaches, Neil, Mark, Kate, Jasper , Charlie and Ellie for making it such a special place!

Fantastic experience: Whether you're brand new to fitness or looking to level up your training Origin is the place to be. With a welcoming environment and community feel to the gym, along with incredibly knowledgeable coaches, you will be sure to unlock new skills and find a new level of fitness you never knew you had.

Fantastic experience: Origin has everything you need to go to the next level of your training. The facilities are great but most importantly Mark, Kate and Neil are experts in their fields and fantastic coaches. I’ve been able to loose fat and build muscle using their work outs and diet plans. The knowledge I’ve gained has been priceless. Thanks

Fantastic experience: Origin series and the whole team are second to none. Everything about the gym, coaching and education is flawless even to the smallest detail. Mark and the team have done something amazing. Professional standards are raised, coaching practice is inspirational and the communication is effortless. I can't wait to get back to bristol to train.

Fantastic experience: Origin is full of premium equipment that is well maintained, has a banging sound system and is spotlessly clean. There’s a huge number and variety of programmed classes each week guided by enthusiastic and passionate coaches who are all at the top of their game to push you to achieve your best. Everyone who trains here is friendly, welcoming and supportive - there’s a lot of sweat but no ego. Plus - it’s a gym within a gym so as an Origin member there is access to all the classes and equipment within Workout Harbourside. Over the years I’ve tried just about every gym in central / South Bristol and I would never go anywhere else, yes it costs more than F4less / The Gym etc but it’s self-investment, and is one of those things where you really do get what you pay for!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been small group training with the Origin team for 3 years and was so excited to join when they opened their new training space within Workout in 2020. I am not the most natural gym goer, but love the mixture of weight, cardio and functional training on offer, which keeps me well motivated!! As well as group classes you can do your own thing, and get additional programming and support if you want. The coaches are amazing, the members friendly and the equipment all new and top quality. Thanks team Origin!

Alice Durston 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coached/programmed by Mark since February 2021 and can quite honestly say, it’s been invaluable. Very knowledgeable, enjoyable programming and my results speak volumes. I’ve been to origin athletic a few times and I love the gym and facilities there. The atmosphere is buzzing and environment is welcoming to members and non-members. Would definitely join if I lived closer. I’ve known Kate for Years, she’s an incredible instructor and is so enthusiastic and passionate about her classes and the gym.

Olivia Davis 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Started PT sessions with Kate a few years ago before the Origin Gym was in existence. Absolutely love Kate as a coach and when she and the team opened Origin Gym, it was a no-brainier to sign-up and benefit from the team of fab, really experienced and helpful coaches. The gym is state of the art with new, shiny equipment that is well looked after by the coaches and members - even more so during Covid where cleaning has been paramount and sessions planned to avoid sharing equipment. On top of all the great things above, one of the best bits about the gym (and members) is that it’s so friendly, supportive and relaxed. Everyone turns up to do their best, smash a workout and has great fun doing it - though there’s always opportunity for a challenge and bit of competition if you desire! Honestly can’t recommend enough - 100%!!

Fantastic experience: Origin Athletic is the best gym I’ve ever been a member of. Endlessly supportive and such a laugh, the coaches make the place what it is. Which is a knowledgeable, challenging, empowering environment and a real community. There’s something for everyone - no matter whether you’re a crossfitter, powerlifter, strongman, or you’ve never stepped foot in a gym before. All classes are coached so you learn technique and how to progress, in fitness or your lifts. Everyone is so welcoming and there’s no judgement or expectations so you can go at your own pace. Plus there are socials and offers of one-on-one training and nutrition support from the coaches, who are all incredibly experienced and always adding to their skill sets. It’s a gym you always want to get up and go to. One of the best things I’ve ever done for my physical and mental health and wellness is join Origin.

Fantastic experience: The best gym I've ever trained at. The facilities are amazing, the coaches are super approachable and knowledgable. They have a real mix of different classes that focus on strength, conditioning, gymnastics and weightlifting. Members are also super friendly. You get so much more than just a gym/place to train but you really join a community of people who all want to better themseleves and have a good time doing so. No matter what the fitness level, background and experience there is a place for everyone at origin athletic.

Fantastic experience: I started my Origin journey 2 years ago having never set foot in the gym prior but with a desire to address my fitness. The team inspired my journey, I lost around 6kg through fitness and nutrition changes but most importantly I've learnt the positive mental benefits of training and couldn't be without it. Having just given birth to my first child I am looking forward to learning to train my post partum body with my Origin family (coaches and members!). This is way more than just a state of the art gym facility, it is a community.

abi cox 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: What can I say, top quality coaches, superb clean environment. If you are starting out on your fitness journey or you need some online coaching with full support then Origin is the place to be. Mark has been my coach now for over 1 year and my physical and mental health is the best it has ever been. Nothing is to much for the coaches and that’s worth is weight in gold. Thank You Mark
