Level Up

Fantastic experience: I've been coming here for past 3 years regularly following classes with Luke and Darryl with my teammates and service is top quality. I feel fittest and strongest I have ever felt with no injuries. Can't speak highly enough of the gym.

Fantastic experience: Our son attended the 5 week block of summer sessions at Level Up Gym, and the experience was nothing short of outstanding. From the very first day, Luke, Darryl, and Will made him feel welcomed, respected, and motivated. Their coaching style combines expert knowledge with a positive, encouraging approach that brought out the best in him. Over the course of the summer, he gained strength, fitness and confidence. He looked forward to every session—which, as parents, was wonderful to see. What has really impressed us the most is how happy he was following the sessions and how the team have given him great inspiration along with the motivation to push himself to improve. We’ll be booking our son onto any future camps without hesitation, and would absolutely recommend Level Up Gym for aspiring athletes looking to progress.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Level Up Gym since October last year, and it’s been an amazing experience. Luke leads the team brilliantly, with Daryll and Will bringing great expertise and energy. All three are highly professional, knowledgeable, and committed to helping members improve. The small group classes combine the buzz of group training with the personal attention you’d expect from one-to-one sessions, with a real focus on correct form and technique. Daryll has helped me hugely with my lower back pain, and the results are very visible. I feel healthier and stronger every day. Easily the best group training I’ve experienced!

Fantastic experience: I started to work with Darryl a month ago and I am really pleased with the progress. The environment he and the rest of the trainers set enables growth and progression and this is showcased by results. His knowledge is clear as he is able to answer all my technical questions with easy to understand responses. The exercises in my personal program have been picked with lots of thought behind them to provide maximum improvement. His experience shines through by being able to quickly adjust the difficulty of exercises to match your ability providing a challenging but motivating experience. Overall, due to the hard work that Darryl, Luke and Will put in I have found Level Up super enjoyable.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Level Up - the coaches are experts and the training has been fantastic. I had PT with Luke last year for a while, trained on my own for a bit and came back this year to work on my deadlift technique, squat depth and pull up strength. Luke designed the programme for me to improve in all those things and new coach Will worked with me in the sessions, adapting them to how I was feeling each week. I’m sure I’ll be back!

Fantastic experience: I joined level up in October following a knee injury after other physios couldn’t help the pain, when I started the knee pain was constant and could hardly put weight on the knee but after working with luke for a couple weeks the pain eased off and the knee started feeling good again. After 2/3 months the knee was pain free and went back to running and playing football pain free and now feeling the best I’ve ever felt and in a very good condition. The quality of coaching is top level, every exercise explained to you why and how it’s helping you. Coaches are very friendly easy to get on with and overall very good to work with.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant experience.

Fantastic experience: I would absolutely recommend Level Up!! I’ve known the coaches Darryl and Luke for over a year and recently had the please of meeting the newest coach Will. I train 1 to 1 sessions with Darryl, who when I originally came in helped me fix a rotational issue in my hip as well as pain in my ankle. Since this, we have progressed onto muscle growth and I am very happy with my progress. Additionally, level up surpasses being just a gym and feels like a community with annual celebrations of the gyms progress as well as Xmas events which involve all the clients together in a fun social way. I feel like I’m not a client to Luke and Darryl but rather a friend who I get to train with. Absolutely worth it!

Fantastic experience: Level Up Gym is more than just a place to work out—it’s a community that genuinely cares about your progress, mindset, and overall well-being. From the moment you walk in, you’re met with a warm, friendly atmosphere that makes it easy to stay consistent and push yourself further. The coaching team—Luke, Darryl, and Will—are outstanding. They’re incredibly knowledgeable, bringing not only experience and technical expertise but also the ability to explain things in a way that makes sense and sticks. They know when to push you, when to support you and how to tailor their guidance to suit your personal goals. What truly stands out is the strong sense of community. Everyone supports each other and celebrates progress, no matter what stage you’re at. Whether you’re new to fitness or a seasoned athlete, you’ll feel right at home here. If you’re looking for expert coaching, real results, and a gym that feels like a second home, Level Up is the place to be. I’ve only been a member for a short time, but I’m so pleased I joined.

Fantastic experience: I can't speak highly enough of this young man! I've known Darryl a long time, I told him about my knee niggle in pre season training which have had for a while. He set me up a program to work off the following day, which i have been doing 3 times a week for the last few weeks. I have noticed how much my knee pain hasn't been hurting as much for football. Sessions aren't too intense either or time-consuming as I live a very busy life. I can't thank him enough and have supported me throughout the program! Thankyou Darryl

Fantastic experience: Strength & Conditioning Coach Feedback – Stotfold FC (Pre-Season Review) I’d like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and commend the excellent work our Strength & Conditioning Coach has done with the group during pre-season. From the outset, the sessions have been well-structured, purposeful, and clearly aligned with the physical demands of the game at our level. The players have returned in noticeably better condition compared to previous seasons, and it’s evident that the physical preparation work – both in and out of formal training – has had a positive impact on overall fitness levels across the squad. There has been a clear improvement in aerobic capacity, repeat sprint ability, and general physical robustness. Players have shown increased intensity throughout the pre-season fixtures and training sessions, with recovery between bouts of high-intensity work much improved. This has directly contributed to a higher tempo in training and matches, and has allowed us to implement our tactical principles more effectively. Crucially, we’ve seen a significant reduction in soft tissue injuries during this pre-season. Apart from a few unavoidable contact-related knocks, the squad has remained largely available and physically prepared, which speaks volumes about the effectiveness of the physical programming and monitoring in place. The communication between coaching staff and the S&C lead has also been strong, ensuring that load is appropriately managed and that individual player needs are considered – particularly those returning from previous injuries or with specific physical profiles. Overall, the integration of S&C into our football programme has added real value to the team’s preparation. The players are more physically equipped, resilient, and engaged in the process, and I believe this will have a lasting impact as we head into the season.

Fantastic experience: I joined Level Up after realising I needed to get stronger for my job and change the way I looked. Luke, Darryl and especially Will have been so supportive, encouraging and friendly and I have definitely seen the changes. They are so well informed, making small changes within a movement to adjust for any discomfort and able to explain what each movement does and guiding through how it should feel. Very professional but still cheeky at times, making the gym feel like fun instead of being boring! Definitely recommend these guys to anyone looking to make any change in their life

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Level Up and Luke enough! I was a little anxious going in for my trial with Luke, but he quickly put me at ease and after my session I signed up straight away!! I trained with Luke 3 times a week for nearly 6 months, and then reduced to once a week. Luke was always super supportive and was always there to help encourage me throughout my journey. Luke is really passionate about what he does and it really shows in the way he works and looks after his clients. He is really knowledgeable and will break down the moves so you know the benefits in them. On top of getting results and learning, I also had fun - and he played some good music too I would recommend Level Up with zero hesitation to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Level Up classes for a few months now. I would highly recommend Level Up. All three coaches are very kind, professional and attentive (Luke, Darryl and Will). The atmosphere is very friendly and although you are encouraged to work hard, there is no judgement or intimidation. They cater to all abilities from beginner to advanced with clear focus on safety to avoid any injury. Another benefit is that there are both early (6:30am) and evening (17:30) classes with the monthly membership allowing you to attend an unlimited number of sessions. This makes it ideal for shift workers, who might have variable working patterns and early morning starts. You can book the classes via an app. I have noticed significant improvement in my strength and genuinely really look forward to each class despite not being a morning person!

Fantastic experience: Darryl is an excellent trainer, very supportive and encouraging. Would highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Luke previously and now Darryl since having my baby in January this year. I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They are incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and really take the time to understand your individual goals. What stood out most was how easy they are to work with — supportive, encouraging and always professional. Every session is well-planned, effective, and tailored to my needs. I’ve seen real progress thanks to their guidance. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a personal trainer who truly knows their stuff and genuinely cares!

Fantastic experience: Darryl has been a huge help in rehabilitating my left knee post ACL reconstruction. He is very knowledgeable and has always been able to vary the exercises to get the best out of me based on what I can do and any niggles I have had. There’s been great progress and I’m sure more to come.

Fantastic experience: For 2.5 years now I have been enjoying weekly 1-1 fitness and strength sessions with Daryl.He has improved and maintained my all-round condition allowing me to complete long-distance multi-day cycling and hiking tours.He adjusts the program so brilliantly to my particular target,for that month or for the year,and understands my needs instinctively, introducing new routines where necessary. It’s never boring,each session has something new.It varies but always with a clear purpose. I couldn’t do without Daryl’s coaching,and Luke’s inputs.I highly recommend Level Up.

Fantastic experience: Staff are very helpful and know there stuff

Fantastic experience: A fantastic small local gym offering one-to-one coaching and classes, focusing on mobility, stability and strength. Also nutrition advice and sports massage. Luke and Darryl really know their stuff and are friendly and supportive. This is a great gym for complete "beginners" and seasoned gym goers. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Level Up is the type of gym I was looking for for so long! Luke and Darryl are fantastic trainers - they are very knowledgeable and correct your postures to make sure you are training safely. The cherry on top - the family vibe!

Fantastic experience: The best private gym!!! Luke and Darryl are so lovely and always looking after you, from nutrition, to fitness, to personal mental health, they will listen and work with you to make your body better

Fantastic experience: This is a really great gym, regardless of your fitness level. The coaches are friendly, professional, and more than happy to work with you however you need.

Fantastic experience: My 12 year old daughter attends weekly for a coaching session with Luke. His level of knowledge and understanding of the bodies mechanics is outstanding. His support is enabling her to develop the strength and ability to play football at a higher level and to avoid injury. I also attend Luke and Darryl’s classes which I really enjoy. Great to come to a class where the coaches have a wider understanding of the body. I look forward to going to the classes, which are fun, the coaches supportive, whilst pushing me to obtain a higher level of fitness, most importantly safely and without injury! Thanks guys :-)

Fantastic experience: A gem of a gym that’s tucked away in Great Shelford (walking distance for me which is a huge win!). Although it’s a small gym, it’s well equipped. Classes are small, but not intimidating at all and you get the 121 PT feeling but in a group setting. Excellent if you have injuries or joint/muscular issues as Luke & Darryl will tailor the exercises to your specific needs, helping you build strength without exacerbating any pre-existing issues.

Fantastic experience: As I work nearby, I had been thinking about joining Level Up for a while when I noticed they were running a 1-week free trial. I was quite anxious about joining with it being a small personal gym I wasn’t sure how the vibe would be, so I brought a colleague along with me for the first couple of sessions. I was quickly made to feel comfortable, and realised I should have joined ages ago!! The vibe is very friendly, and I love that everything is adapted for ability, so my first session back in the gym after a while, I didn’t feel the need to push myself too hard and I wasn’t scared of going back as everything was adapted to ability with a focus on avoiding injury. One thing that really stands out to me is how approachable they are and their commitment to make workouts and memberships work for everyone. They welcome client feedback and make changes where they can to suit everyone! The classes have already made a difference to my body. My ankle, knee and hips sometimes get painful, which is usually worsened by attending gym classes but the exercises at Level Up have improved the pain and I can feel everything getting stronger and more stable already! On a more personal level, Luke and Daryll come across as genuinely good guys who care about the progress, health and happiness of their clients, it’s such a warm and friendly environment where people of all abilities can have a laugh whilst working towards their goals.

Fantastic experience: I have trained with Luke for many years, and since the beginning of Level Up!! Luke and Daryl are great coaches and create a real community at the gym. The classes are small which is great!

Fantastic experience: A great local gym, with a nice crowd of people. Luke and Darryl are very knowledgeable, proving excellent support, guidance and encouragement. Far better than some corporate gym chain.

Fantastic experience: What a fabulous gym! Love the small group classes with Luke & Darryl, they are both amazing coaches and have built such a great facility & community at Level Up.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities & PTs can’t wait to get back ⚽️⚽️

Fantastic experience: I have had a number of sessions with Luke over the past two years and he's a fantastic, knowledgeable PT. I hadn't been to the gym before seeing Luke and had specific goals in mind which Luke helped me work towards with nutrition and PT sessions. His energy and motivation pushes you to succeed and his positivity is hugely helpful. The Level Up community is brilliant too!

Fantastic experience: Darryl provided a free massage to me recently after he got qualified as sport masseur and started building his experience. I suffer from shoulder and neck pain and Darryl's massage helped to ease the tension. He's friendly and professional. I would recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great little place for gym classes, personal training and massages. Darryl is very friendly, and I look forward to going back.

Fantastic experience: Very nice and friendly; I had a free massage with Darryl, which was great; I am going to start a regular exercise here

Fantastic experience: My wife and I signed up for their free week trial and we had a really great experience. Luke and Darryl really know what they are doing. Not only did they give excellent personalised training sessions that felt good for the body but they also explained the theory behind it all so it was also very educational. They managed to create a friendly, welcoming and fun environment with a professional approach. I would highly recommend their training sessions.

Fantastic experience: Took my 12 year old son for a consultation with Luke who is a personal trainer at LEVELUP. My son plays grassroots football and wants to increase his body strength and sprinting speed. Luke went through a series of exercises with my son to help him start to achieve his goals. Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend this gym to others.

Fantastic experience: Level Up Gym completed a sports massage yesterday and what a great experience! - 2 local lads providing sports massage, classes, and 1 to 1 tailored fitness and support for people of all abilities. The massage was excellent and at the right pressure and tailored to what I wanted. They have good facilities with no need to drive into the centre of town and good to support a small local company that can give a personalised service! Contact Luke for further details but I think they have a free trial so you can try a training package with no obligation (and PS I am definitely no gym bunny :-)

Fantastic experience: Fab gym! Luke and Darryl lead great classes that suit all abilities, and over the course of a year I've gone from hating exercise to really looking forward to going each day, and as a bonus I've lost a bunch of weight and love how strong I feel. The social aspect of the classes and activities like BBQs has also really helped me to make friends in the area :) Couldn't recommend Level Up enough!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, Luke and Darryl are very friendly, they taylor programmes to suit your need . The gym is not intimidating like the large national gyms. Highly recommended..

Fantastic experience: New gym, enthusiastic owner Luke, classes at 6.30am which suits me!
