Primal Fitness: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great boxing gym in melton. Theres a boxing/fitness class for every age and ability and they’ve got great a great set up there.
Fantastic experience: Gym review from a former self-proclaimed non-gym person! Adam and Simon are so welcoming, knowledgeable and committed to helping you reach your goals whether you want to learn how to box, get stronger using weights, improve cardio fitness or learn how to sort out your food intake. I started going to the Kickstarter 6 week program in September 2021, and I still go 4/5 times a week. Friday night box and beers is a great laugh, every person you bump into down there is friendly and helpful. Keep up the great work!!
Fantastic experience: Best boxing club in Melton by far
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great people. Everybody and everyone is welcome, and you spend half your time chatting with other patrons as everyone is so friendly. Adam knows his stuff, and has sorted my strength and fitness right out. I've never felt fitter, stronger or better in myself.
Thanks dude! So glad you like our gym and buzzing we’ve helped you feel fitter , stronger and happier
Fantastic experience: Amazing!!
Fantastic experience: Great gym, Adam and Simon are friendly and knowledgeable re health and fitness, No pressure to keep up if you’re flagging but the encouragement is at the ready. Fab music and overall a lovely place to get fit
Fantastic experience: In my 55yrs this is the only gym I've stuck with and that speaks volumes. No pretence, a really great vibe and sense of community. Whether you opt for classes or tailormade sessions Adam & Simon both know their stuff. We wouldn't train anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, been going on and off for years always mad to feel dead welcome. If you are wanting somewhere that you can work out not be judged but encouraged this is the place. And they have the best Christmas parties!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely smashing gym. Fab music, fab owners and the best classes. Pepper the dog is always on hand to welcome you through the door. Perfect start to a work out!
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, great equipment, the classes are fantastic, and the owners are super passionate about what they do and always make you feel comfortable and welcome. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Sweat Tears Results! First joined Primal Fitness in 2020 to boost my mental health and get fit. From the moment I stepped into the gym (on my lonesome) I was met by friendly members and staff who made me feel welcome and at ease. Primal owners Simon and Adam are very knowledgeable on fitness, nutrition and work with you to help you get the results you want. It's a boxing gym predominately so don't expect a great weights room and lots of cardio machines - this is a "if you want to earn it you need to burn it" style gym, simple in presence but with maximum benefits. They just need to sort out their music playlists
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym,friendly instructors & members. Make you feel very relaxed with no judgement on whether you are beginner or a professional. Highly recommend to anyone. Great classes ,fun & functional.
Fantastic experience: If you're apprehensive about joining a gym, then read on!! Primal is a welcoming all round gym for anyone, of any age, gender or ability. It has dedicated areas for circuit training and cardio, a decent weights gym, and specialised boxing gym with all sorts of equipment and boxing ring. I'd always fancied trying boxing, but one of my biggest concerns was not wanting to feel like I was making a fool of myself. But from day 1 the guys have been so welcoming and encouraging there, I've felt instantly part of the family. Since then and no doubt down to how welcome I felt, I've returned to regular weight training after 15 years off and still use the punch bags and train boxing too. I felt turning 40 and with a bit of a Dad-bod I was at a fork in the road. I was either going to take responsibly for my health and well being, or slide down a slippery slope. Only 6 months in (including plenty of lock down I feel much better in myself mentally and physically so it's been a life changing thing for me and hopefully should continue. So if you're wondering whether to give something a go, I'd highly recommend Primal as all of their PTs and class leaders are completely welcoming and make everyone of all abilities feel at home. Both Adam and Simon have an immense wealth of experience in combat sports, fitness and strength training and are more than forthcoming in making suggestions, sharing tips and advice at any time around the gym. If you are more advanced and want to train as a serious fighter, you're in very good hands. Primal has a relaxed vibe with a genuine sense of community, not like a big corporate gym where everyone has their head down looking at their phone on a bike! Plus at £40 per month including all group classes it's very reasonable too.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place with a very professional personal trainer that can tailor your personal needs from physical to diet.
Fantastic experience: Rally sound bunch of people who really know what they are talking about ...plenty of support ... and lots of patience! they are the best at what they do in the local area... defo!
Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a gym experience like no other, then Primal is for you! Here, you’ll find incredible classes that push you to your very limits, and then ask you to go one step farther. The fitness experts here are passionate about what they do and they teach their classes and train their clients with the kind of personal touch which make every experience all the more special! Walking into the gym, is like walking into your home away from home. Everyone from the staff to the clients will quickly learn your name. That feeling of intimidation or uncertainty that often comes when joining a gym, will quickly be replaced with a feeling of belonging and family. From your first class, you will never have felt more challenged or had as much fun! I personally go to the boxing classes and have PT boxing sessions too - training for upcoming fights. The knowledge is in abundance and the training is second to none. It’s certainly not a rare sight to see and be among some truly talented British professionals whilst at primal so I can’t rave enough about this place. There is literally nothing I can fault. Prices: Amazing Staff: Amazing Classes:Amazing variety of classes:Amazing Equipment: Amazing and forever growing! Highly recommend! Simon A
Fantastic experience: Primal Fitness is a very welcoming and down-to-earth gym. It is well equipped, with experienced coaches willing to support your personal fitness and boxing goals, whether you’re a beginner or somebody looking to improve your skills further. The evening group sessions are really enjoyable, making it easy to push yourself and get a great workout
