Elements Training - Peterborough Gym & Fitness Centre

Fantastic experience: Definition of in depth and well covered. Felt prepared and ready for applying after completing my lvl 3 and 4 with Elements. Definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Have completed the Level 4 Strength and Conditioning and the mentorship programme with Martin. He’s an incredibly knowledgeable tutor and very thorough. Both were 100% worth every penny spent. He made sure to teach to the classes needs and what I have learnt has helped me benefit my clients and my business more than I could have imagined!

Fantastic experience: Martin was an absolute superstar , I completed my level 2 with him and now doing my level 3 , he made sure we had all the right sources needed as well as giving any extra information or cover on anything I was struggling with . I would highly recommend anyone who’s thinking of completing any courses to do it through martin !

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend as a place to get your level 2/ level 3 PT course completed. Everyone is very knowledgeable, welcoming and always willing to help! I have also been a part of the mentorship which has had a massive impact on my own personal training business - worth every penny spent and I couldn’t recommend it more for new personal trainers looking to become successful in the field.

Fantastic experience: I have been using elements since it opened and cannot recommend it enough - I have also taken courses through elements which have all been delivered by knowledgable coaches - I have PT sessions weekly and the difference it has made to me is invaluable

Fantastic experience: Not a chain-gym, not a body building gym, not a crossfit box. I wanted a place where I can work myself but also be able to have professional advice when needed. It took me a few months and few failures scanning through the gyms in the area before I entered Elements Training. Martin and Sam ( the owners ) have years of experience in the industry and this shows. The setting is flexible enough to let experienced users enjoy and beginners to benefit too. I strongly recommend if you want your own place to work or need a PT's guidance for specific goals or just want to attend a few classes per week. Top quality and great people!

Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Martin and Elements Team enough. I have thoroughly enjoyed my Advanced Personal Trainer course with Martin. He has a great way of sharing the knowledge and his vast experience in the field. He also does his very best to help you succeed while on the course and afterwards in your career. Fantastic experience!

Fantastic experience: Currently study strength and conditioning level 4 and mentoringship programme with Martin at elements, needless to say both courses are insightful with all the resources and support to go with it. Martin has been incredible through both courses and is always there to answer any question or guide you through the process. If your wanting to develop yourself in the fitness industry elements and with Martin is the place to go highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Taking the mentorship program at elements has been one of the best decisions I could have made. Having started off unsure of what steps to take in the fitness industry, Martin’s vast knowledge and experience helped guide me to ensure a successful start in the fitness world.

Fantastic experience: I completed the level 2 gym instructor course with Martin in Feb 2022. First off, there are not enough words to describe how knowledgable martin is on this subject and that certainly came over in his deliverly of the course. The pace was perfect and the content was able to be understood by all. I would have considered myself a novice with this type of content however the delivery allowed me to understand and keep pace with those who were slightly more experienced. I gained a large amount from this course, which included, but not limited to, the fundamental body needs, the mechanics of excercise and the correct way to do it. I have been able to take away knowledge that i can pass on to others but most importantly for me I now have the knowledge that aids me in my daily life and functions but has also sky rocketed my own training. I would recommend this course to anyone who is thinking of entering a career in the fitness industry but equally, if you are just looking to expand your knowledge and understand how training and wellbeing can impact on you directly then this is the course for you. The team at Elements training are there to ensure that everything is understood and they will provide you with all the necessary help and guidance for you to achieve everything you can out of their learning.

Fantastic experience: Completed my level 2 gym instructor course and currently doing my level 3 PT qualification with Martin. Very knowledge and helpful. Would recommend anyone looking to do any gym based course with Martin.

Fantastic experience: Elements has been awesome to me! Martin & Sam are amazing coaches! The vibe in the gym is great and I have had nothing but good experiences. I would definitely recommend them to everyone that is looking for a friendly gym!

Fantastic experience: One of the best gym I've been to. Love the community spirit there. I felt welcomed from day one. All the trainers genuinely care about you and your physical and mental wellbeing. They are always encouraging and make you feel like nothing is impossible.

Fantastic experience: Top quality gym with all the space and equipment you need. Perfect for all types of training whether you like to train alone or take part in the classes. Very easy going atmosphere in there.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with equipment/facilities to cater for any type of training! Martin was very welcoming and was more than happy to show me around, introduce me to the trainers that teach regular classes and answer any questions I had. Would throughly recommend! :)

Fantastic experience: Elements is easily the best gym in Peterborough, I’ve been to a lot of places where you can lift heavy stuff but the knowledge of the trainers here is second to none by a mile! I’ve always felt like I knew more than the staff at the previous gyms but here I feel like I know nothing and I love it. The classes are expertly crafted and the plans put you at the centre of them and focus on your goals. If you’re thinking about joining a gym, then come down and speak with the guys, they cater for everyone and the atmosphere is one of co-operation not competition. This place made me love coming to the gym again. The Elements effect is real!

Fantastic experience: This is truely a great gym. After being stuck in lockdown and choosing to start a new career while in lockdown I knew I needed to get back to a gym and work on my fitness. I decided to join elements, it was a completely different gym that I have been use to but I knew I needed to do something diffent then going to a gym just to life weights and get bigger, so I went down to elements and joined up. Martin did my induction and went through a fitness test with me and made a plan of what I wanted my goals were and what I needed to work on which would help me in my new career but would also help me in basketball which I have played for many years. Martin also help me relise the importantness of these exercises. The gym it self is great has a variaty of equipment for everything you would need, staff are great and extemely helpful and always at hand to give tips or guidence. They do classes which are great and fun to do. If you are looking to join up at a gym I would highly recommend elements.

Fantastic experience: After struggling to regain some mobility, flexibility and strength after being diagnosed with Osteoarthritis in my knees 4 years ago, I came across Elements Training online programme. I made huge progress following the programme, and decided to sign up for PT sessions. I was allocated Lukas who took me through a thorough consultation and fitness evaluation and has delivered a programme devised specifically for my goals. These are not off the shelf fitness plans! The gym itself has a great atmosphere, and Lukas has delivered some challenging but rewarding workouts. He's friendly, knowledgeable and has clearly done his research regarding my knees. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great training space. Coaches Martin and Sam are brilliant and classes fully recommended

Fantastic experience: Fantastic, client focused gym with great equipment, classes and PTs. Fully recommended.

Fantastic experience: Great space to come and train - first class facilities, all the toys and a welcoming feel to it.

Fantastic experience: Friendly environment with very knowledgable staff that are always happy to help out.

Fantastic experience: It's a brilliant gym. Martin and Sam have a very individual approach to every client and it makes the whole experience feel as if you are having PT sessions rather than attending a standard gym. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a smaller, intimate, friendly and non-chain gym!

Fantastic experience: A very professional and friendly gym. Elements is focusing on the technique as it is very important that you have a good technique when doing any exercises or movement or weight lifting otherwise you will get the injury. The assessment is very thorough. Your movement is recorded and the program given is tailored according to the result of your assessment ( your need and your condition). Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: If your in a position where you are ready to implement a healthier lifestyle then this is the right place! Martin and the team make a huge effort to learn your lifestyle, and coaches you in the right direction to achieve your goals, realistically!! i have been educated on my ideal exercise plan, plus my ideal diet. If you need the motivation to make a change, small or big- then I highly recommend Elements

Fantastic experience: These guys bring a new dimension to your training its not just about chucking heavy metal weights around, its about doing it correctly with the right techniques and a body that is supple warm and ready for those explosive movements. Martin and Sam are a master class of what they practice and preach.

Fantastic experience: Excellent space! The guys are great and very thorough with the induction process, which is great. The classes are really good, there is something for everyone. Highly recommend this gym.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in town! Great team and facilities. Been training with Sam for some years now and great to see him and Martín get this great new place set up!

Fantastic experience: Really friendly staff, who are really helpful, and everything is catered to your abilities and requirements. For the same price as many other gyms in the area the level of customer service is excellent, would definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Martin for almost a year. During that time I've dropped two sizes in both my trousers and shirts. He has helped with my diet. I feel much stronger and healthier and my wife says my body shape has changed :-). I have found him to be very easy going about things, but serious about helping me reach the goals I want. He has kept my motivation high and written a home workout and also a gym workout so I can train whenever I like! Martin is a great motivator, but not in a army officer way. I would definitely recommend his services to family and friends. Thanks Martin

Fantastic experience: I've been a client of Martins for just under 2 years now. Martin has helped me transform from a fairly unhealthy individual to a fitter and stronger person. His knowledge of physiology along with the approach that one size doesn't fit all, means that he gives a truly individual training regime to best fit you! In addition, his nutrition advice is sound and again fits your lifestyle, which makes it easier to stick with and follow. All round, a very professional PT service.

Fantastic experience: Training with Martin enabled me to lose weight and reach my personal goals. Not only did he plan goal appropriate, progressive and fun sessions he also helped me change me eating habits by giving me dietary advice. Martins enthusiasm and polite encouragement meant I worked harder than I ever would on my own in the gym. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Martin as a personal trainer. I had never really done much excerise before as I dont have the best coordiation or balance however Martin breaks everything down for you so you cat start small and then build yourself up. He provided me with a routine to do at home and great advice on eating healthy and diet planning which has been a permanent lifestye change for me. While training with Martin I noticed a difference in my body shape in weeks which gave me the motivation and confidence to keep going! Martin also gives great advice on how to loosen up tight muscles which can help you when exercising A great , friendly trainer that I would highly reccomend.

Fantastic experience: I trained with Martin for several years; he helped me to get more fit, lean and healthy. He put together a gym programme which I could follow when training on my own at the gym. During pregnancy he amended my training programme so I could stay fit during those months.

Fantastic experience: 'Like most men, I thought having a personal trainer was a waste of time and money. After all, I knew, or so I thought I knew what to do in the gym for a two to three hour work-out session on my own. It was only when my wife finally persuaded me to contact Martin Smith, that I saw the value of using a highly professional personal trainer. During the initial assessment, I was pleasantly surprised at his training regime, it was not all about lifting heavy weights only. I quickly signed up for a session of ten, each session was for an hour and in this time I was achieving more than in my two/three hour sessions alone, the results are AMAZING! I have now been with Martin for just over a year and I can honestly say, I feel the fittest that I have ever felt. Martin plans my training routine before I arrive and every session is different, combining, strength, cardio, core and flexibility. The routines vary and keep it interesting as well as challenging. The hour flies by, but I always feel that I've worked extremely hard. Being an avid squash player, I was having problems with my knees. Martin's targeted training method has meant that I can still enjoy the game that I love for many more years ahead. I cannot thank Martin enough and can honestly say that I would never go to a gym without a personal trainer, in particular the training method used by Martin.'

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Smart Fitness to ANYONE on the planet who wants to be fit and healthy in their bodies. Thanks again Martin
