B42 Functional fitness

Fantastic experience: Joining was the best decision I’ve made !!! Best gym ever with the BEST coaches !! Had 0 fitness when I joined and now training consistently a year later and loving it

Fantastic experience: I used to hate going to the gym but since joining B42 in November 2024, I have been at least 3/4 times each week. The coaches are amazing and keep you feeling really motivated. I’ve met so many amazing people and I’m the fittest I’ve ever been. The classes are always very varied so you never get bored. I couldn’t recommend B42 enough

Fantastic experience: Been a member for close to six months now. Fantastic gym, really supportive coaches, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I joined B42 in February 2024, at the time my self confidence was very low and my motivation for the gym declined. It’s now been over a year and I can’t believe how much B42 has changed my life. I’m in the best shape of my life, but not only that made some of my closest friends! I find not many gyms I have been too in the past have a sense of community like B42, and I can honestly say (even though the work outs are touch) that I enjoy every session!! I absolutely love coming to the gym and it’s really changed the world of fitness. There are also all abilities so there is no worry you won’t be able to do an exercise, everyone is welcome! ☺️

Fantastic experience: Best coaches, people and vibes! Can’t recommend B42 enough!

Fantastic experience: What can I say? The best gym in Cardiff? And nope I dont get paid to post good reviews . I love being part of the community feel of the gym. This place is my “happy place” especially as a very busy Mum with toddler twins and a 7 year old, busy household to run. After a year and a half joining, I’m starting to feel myself again, getting stronger and fitter again. This Mama is definitely trying to get her “pink” back. The coaches are very welcoming, friendly and motivating. They know their shit. I dont feel like I’m just a number. There’s no cliquey vibe with everyone. You felt seen and included. I’m able to do things which I’ve put off for years- running. I’m a barbell girl through and though but now- I’m doing my first hyrox soon, half Marathon and who knows what’s next?! Thank you B42 for helping me find myself again and make me believe I can do ANYTHING no matter how old I am and where I am in my fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: B42 isn’t a gym, it’s a community and I’m super proud to be part of it! I joined in January after trying some of the classes and look forward to going to every session. It’s tough, but it pushes me to the next level and I’m stronger and fitter than ever! The coaches are all amazing, so knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. They really care!

Fantastic experience: Always toyed with idea of joining a gym but never felt confident enough. Tried a few classes for free on recommendation and have not looked back! Wish I'd joined earlier! Very welcoming and supportive coaches and a lovely community of members, and I always come out of a class feeling really good. The coaches are also very helpful with any concerns and offer tailored advice if you need it. Cannot recommend B42 enough

Fantastic experience: I’m 3 weeks into my training with B-42 and honestly can’t get over how good the classes are. The sessions are tough — properly challenging — but incredibly rewarding. Every single time I walk out of the gym, I feel like I’ve accomplished something real. What’s made the biggest difference for me, though, is the support from Ben, Ffion, and Harry. Each of them brings something unique, and together they’ve added real value to the start of my fitness journey. Whether it’s technique, motivation, or just the energy in the room — they’ve been there every step of the way. I genuinely couldn’t imagine doing this without them. Thank you all! #B42Challenge #Grateful #FitnessJourney #SupportMatters

Fantastic experience: Unreal Experience at B42 – Best Gym in Cardiff Bay! I can’t recommend B42 enough! From the moment you walk in, the energy is electric and the community vibe is unbeatable. As someone training for Hyrox, I was looking for a space that really understands the demands of functional fitness – B42 delivers that and more. The coaches are world-class – knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in your progress. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned athlete, they tailor the sessions to push you safely and effectively. The programming is elite, with a great mix of strength, conditioning, and Hyrox-specific work that keeps every session fresh and challenging. The equipment is top-tier, the space is always clean and well-maintained, and the team running the gym clearly care about building something special. You don’t just come here to work out – you become part of a community that pushes each other to be better every day. If you’re in Cardiff and serious about fitness, especially Hyrox, B42 is the place to be. Absolutely five stars.

He's a great motivator and the sessions are thoroughly enjoyable!

Fantastic experience: If I could give 10 stars I would!! I have been doing Bootcamp 42 classes for just under a year now, I absolutely love it. Ben and the other trainers have created an inclusive community of like minded individuals with a shared goal for self improvement. The sessions are fun, varied and interesting, there are always different options of movements based on ability and you never are made to feel like the odd one out if you are not at the same level as others in the group. I started PT with Ben before joining Bootcamp 42 and I can honestly say that Ben is one of the most professional trainers there are - he is really friendly, understanding, motivating and incredibly knowledgable, he has formed a great network of trainers and individuals with Bootcamp 42, I am starting to feel really great about myself and my fitness levels are improving which is down to Ben and the community he's formed - I look forward to see it continue and be part of the B42 journey!
