Nova Performance: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Best gym In Cambridgeshire. If you’re looking to actually make gains, this is the place to be
Fantastic experience: Such a great community feel. Everybody is so encouraging and welcoming. I joined Nova to get into Powerlifting and it has been nothing but a positive experience. I have been working with Craig as my PT for about 2 months now and my training has come on leaps and bounds. He is very knowledge and programming is provided promptly.
Great to hear Emma! We really appreciate you as a member!!Love seeing the progression!

Fantastic experience: Great strength gym, specialising in Olympic lifting, power lifting and strongman. Its very well equipped and has great coaches that really know their stuff
Fantastic experience: Adam is an amazing coach, super knowledgeable and has really changed the way I view the gym. It’s now the best part of my day!!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym and facilities. Parking right outside. Very supportive and friendly vibe. Zero hostility and just the right amount of tough encouragement. It's a gym with a very inclusive and welcoming atmosphere. The standard of coaching is very high. I train mainly with gym owner Adam Smith who is technically very skilled and brings the best out of his athletes. I would highly recommend this gym whatever level your lifting or fitness ambitions. They will have a style of coaching that suits you.
Fantastic experience: If you want to learn how to be the strongest version of yourself then this is the gym for you!! There’s no other gym around that has the experience, coaching or atmosphere that Nova has.
Fantastic experience: Amazing atmosphere/training environment and the best ,most supportive coaches you could ask for :) :)
Fantastic experience: I joined Nova Performance in January 2024 to improve my Olympic lifting. I soon tried Strongman and loved it, and now Powerlifting is next on my list! Today, I attended a two-hour workshop with Adam Smith that focused on getting under the bar quickly. The seminar covered technical details and insightful cues. We practiced these, and I now feel confident in incorporating tips like "jump," "engage lats," "shoulders down," and "external and internal rotation." I’m hopeful these will enhance my lifts over time. If you're looking for first-class coaching from knowledgeable and helpful athletes, this gym is top-notch.
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym. Really friendly and supportive coaches and clientele The classes are great, good variety of different types of weightlifting including strongman, powerlifting and Olympic lifting. I’ve been going there since it opened and couldn’t imagine a better training environment
Fantastic experience: Great quality barbells, lifting platforms, most amazing community and atmosphere! I commute 45 min one way at least twice a week, and love the place so much I don’t even mind
Fantastic experience: Excellent facility, everything you could really want. I had a PT with Adam, very knowledgeable and clearly well experienced. Great levels of both communication and explanation, very adept at giving corrective instruction.
Fantastic experience: Adam is a great coach, knows his stuff about oly weightlifting but great with powerlifting and mobility. He's super supportive with competitions and great for coaching them in the back rooms to. Gym itself has lots of lifting platforms and quality weights. The vibe among other lifters is nice and we all support each other.
Fantastic experience: Nova Perfomance is the ideal place to go if you're looking for something different to your usual gym. The classes, equipment, coaching, and staff are all next level and soon had me out of my comfort zone when it came to lifitng and I'm definitely seeing and feeling the results! I couldn't recommend Nova Perfomance enough to those looking for a new challenge when it comes to fitness.
Fantastic experience: Very good gym, very clean and organised, adam is a very good coach, and is easy to get along with
Fantastic experience: Came for the weights, stayed for me mates ❤️
Fantastic experience: good
Fantastic experience: Nova Performance has created a strong training environment for people of all levels and disciplines. The gym is a mixed crowd of beginners, intermediate and advanced level lifters who are actively competing. Adam is the owner and head Weightlifting coach at Nova. He is a great trainer who cares about his clients health and success. Joining Nova and being coached by Adam has really helped elevate my training to new heights. I have done a few classes with Lily as well, she is also an excellent coach and has helped correct some issues I had with my technique. I highly recommend Nova Performance to everyone.
Fantastic experience: A weightlifting gym with a wonderful community! I'd absolutely recommend this gym to anyone with any kind of interest in weightlifting! The coaches are attentive and knowledgeable and the other gym-goers are approachable and friendly. The classes are small, which means you get a much more personalised experience! Can't do a certain lift due to injury/body restrictions? The coaches will switch up the exercises for you so you can still take part! I personally suffer from anxiety, the trainers have been incredibly respectful and helpful in that regard, which has helped me so much with both the exercise and my mental health. They have recently expanded their gym which has given the whole experience a huge boost. The community at the gym is amazing, not only do you build muscle but you build relationships. There is the occasional gym BBQ and get-together which are great (honestly the food is so good). As a woman I've felt incredibly comfortable at this gym, there is no atmosphere of judgement or cattiness that I've feared about gyms before. It's just a chill place with some wonderfully friendly people of all ages, shapes and sizes! I wouldn't recommend it if you just want to focus on cardio, the gym is not tailored for cardio. Don't disappoint yourself if you want to cycle or run on a treadmill.
Fantastic experience: “Come to Nova” my son encouraged when I was looking for a gym. I knew he did weightlifting there but was it a fit for me and my dodgy knees? What a revelation it’s been. Adam, the owner, has been great - knowledgeable in his field, encouraging, but tough when he needs to be and he definitely knows his stuff. Lily is a fantastic asset to Nova Performance. Again, knowledgeable in her field, she effortlessly flits between the more experienced weightlifters and me without making me feel out of place or awkward. The small classes are great and personalised for the needs of those who attend - no one size fits all. My physio has seen a definite improvement in my knees which is all down to the goals set for me by Adam. I feel so much better since joining the Nova family.
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a gym with the best gear, great coaches, and an awesome atmosphere, then look no further than Nova! Everyone welcome but love the specialisation in weightlifting/powerlifting/strongman training
Fantastic experience: A friendly and down to earth gym, with a variety of skill levels and weightlifting styles attending. Everyone seems to be welcome and I felt comfortable and happy to practise and workout here. Adam is knowledgeable and always happy to provide advice or information on technique, workouts and exercises. Always a pleasure to train here.
Fantastic experience: Coaches have a very thorough knowledge of olympic weight lifting techniques.
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with good coachs
