Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, well stocked with good quality equipment, a strong supportive atmosphere from all the members, and the Strongman Sundays are a great way for new members or just members of the public to come and meet the guys, move some steel and learn some disciplines. I can say enough good things about Lou as a coach either, extremely knowledgeable, easy going, and always supportive of any issues or questions that come up. I’ve been training under Lou for approximately 6 months and in that time my general all round strength and conditioning has vastly improved.

Fantastic experience: All the equipment you could ever need and great community of people. Perfect for someone who’s just starting out but equally great for the veterans of the game!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. Whatever your goals Coach Lou has your back. Tons of equipment, friendly people and a good atmosphere. Leave your ego at the door and give it a try.

Fantastic experience: I started at the HHOS in January. I was unable to walk properly without aids due to a ongoing issue with my spine since the age of 17 . Since I have started at the gym under the excellent guidance of lou I have come on leaps and bounds . Nice and steady start to get me feeling a little stronger and more stable then slowly building up in areas that I would never have thought possible . HHOS is incredible from coach lou to all the other ladies and gents that go in there for there own goals and benefits . All of whom are a fantastic bunch of people that encourage you to get to the best of your ability with a good few laughs along the way . This gym is more like going to a family gathering than a gym everyone is there to support each other and cheer everyone up at the same time . Thankyou lou and all the team

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Lou for the last year. He helped me get back on track with everything after falling out love with training! Lou’s got a wealth of knowledge and experience. His gym is the ideal place to get those gains!

Fantastic experience: Moved to a new unit and it’s gone from strength to strength, the new unit has allowed for an expansion of equipment giving the further ability to train a wider variety of disciplines, whether you just want to stay fit or train for sporting competition. The coaches are friendly, knowledgable and professional. There is ample parking any time of the day due to the varying hours of the other units on the site. There are a couple of conveniences still to be finished however from a training perspective it’s ready to go with decent equipment that has been thought about prior to purchase for its benefits.

Fantastic experience: Trained with the owner, Lou, for a few years now and have seen good development in my strength and confidence in the gym overall. The new gym has a lot of good kit that's not available in most other gyms I've been to, and with the PT sessions thrown into membership fees it's well priced

Fantastic experience: Fantastic to see Coach Lou set up in his new gym. Lou is a superb, knowledgeable coach for all ability levels, located in an incredibly welcoming and supportive environment. Not to mention the vast range of kit, whether you’re just looking to get a bit fitter or compete in strength sports.

Fantastic experience: I recently joined this gym after a few years of being a couch potato, and it's been a game-changer. Coach Lou's guidance has rekindled my interest in training. The supportive atmosphere and his expertise make the experience enjoyable and motivating. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been using Lou's facilities for around 8 months now and I would never us a over crowded commercial gym again! There is everything you need and more, plus Lou's expertise will allow you to achieve your fitness goals quicker. I started feeling like I knew alot and that I had maximised my potential. Lou soon broke that barrier for me and within 4 month I had gained 10kg of Muscle, he changed my programming to suit my needs when I needed. With all that aside the people at this gym are very friendly, hard working and will help you with any struggles. Lou is also the friendliest guy you can meet and this helps massively when it comes to feeling comfortable to train or on those day you can't be bothered, Lou makes the effort worth it.

Fantastic experience: This is a quality gym with a coach with quality knowledge. It’s got everything you need and all the people are great. It has a great feeling around it and there’s no pressure. There’s a good variation from beginners to advanced lifters so you don’t feel any pressure on what and how your doing things and there will always be people there to help you other than just the coach.

Fantastic experience: I'm now approaching my 7th year of training with Louis and I couldn't recommend him highly enough. In that time I've gone from strength to strength both physically and mentally and have achieved things I never thought possible. Whether you're a total newbie or a seasoned competitor Coach Lou is phenomenal. He's friendly, approachable and has a wealth of knowledge to help you achieve your goals!
