Fantastic experience: Been training at NESC and with Tom for almost a year now, I’ve made incredible progress, the equipment is top tier, and plenty of it. Tom has a vast amount of knowledge for the sport of powerlifting, and general training as well, the gym is very friendly and everyone is welcome, Tom and Katherine are lovely and inviting, cheers

Fantastic experience: Most inspiring, wholesome loving place. The community and equipment make it more than just a gym.

Fantastic experience: Switched to NESC 10 months ago and I’ve gone from nervous newbie to confident and strong… really recommend it to anyone who wants to get stronger and/or looking for supportive classes taught by experienced coaches. I train in powerlifting and Olympic weightlifting and attend classes, it’s just unfortunate I have to work and recover otherwise I’d move in Look them (and us!) up on Instagram to see what we get up to ☺️ Photos are of my 145kg squat at a recent NESC competition

Fantastic experience: I recently joined this gym and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The competition spec powerlifting kit, as well as the strongman kit including atlas stones, make this gym a real destination for strength training and powerlifting. The atmosphere is fantastic and the other members are friendly and nurture a supportive environment where beginners shouldn't feel intimidated but feel supported and guided. The gym has a friendly and welcoming vibe for all. The trainers are knowledgeable and always willing to offer advice, guidance and motivation. Usually there's lots of talking and chat between the members during training too. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting your journey, this gym has something for everyone looking to be stronger. The variety of equipment and training options ensure that you'll never get bored or stuck in a rut. Overall, I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for an exceptional strength training experience. The combination of high-quality equipment, great atmosphere, and friendly people make this gym a standout choice for anyone local and a destination for those from further afield.

Fantastic experience: NESC is a gym with an atmosphere like no other; social, empowing and friendly. It really is what the gym is all about and the perfect place for anyone wanting to get into powerlifting and strongman. Also you get to see Tom's smile every time you walk in, which is an added bonus

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym. Working with Tom for nearly 18 months, I have manged to develop my strength and fitness to levels I could only dream of. I was so unfit and scared. People often think strength means big and bulky. This is not true. Over this period I have lost over 7st, developing functional strength and reducing body fat. Improving my quality of life for me and my kids. I now have the confidence to feel at home in the gym and follow a structured fun programme. The NESC community is so supportive, no matter your level or goals. If it matters to you, it matters to all. Through this community I have now taken steps to hopefully compete in a novice competition. Great Kit, great people, great atmosphere. I say try it. I think you'll be surprised at your experience. Thank you Tom and the NESC community. ♥️
