Thrive Personal Training Gym: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Excellent small group PT sessions, any exercise that doesn't work for an individual through injury or whatever reason, the PT will adjust the set to meet your needs &you'll still get the same result on your body. Also offer nutritional support very encouraging team, after just two weeks I feel like I've been welcomed so brilliantly. I'd highly recommend this to anyone.
Thank you Lisa
Fantastic experience: Thrive has been amazing during my 30 days trials. They supported me,made me feel welcome through out. I have gain alot of confidence and I can see some changes in myself. Will definitely be joining. Thanks for all the support. Patrick, Jack and Rhia you all are amazing.
Ah lovely to hear Onyeka see you soon!
Fantastic experience: Just completed my introduction sessions at Thrive. Absolutely fabulous and I recommend it to anyone who has never attended a gym, or anyone who hasnt been for a long time. It's given me the inspiration, knowledge, and determination to continue my fitness journey. The individual attention you receive gives you the confidence to try different training techniques and to correct any that you think you have been doing okay, when in fact you haven't!!!!! Mistakes many of us make. Its good fun, whilst getting fitter!! A big thank you to personal trainers Patrick and Jack. Also, Rhia for her words of encouragement.
Thank you Susan
Fantastic experience: Astonishing gym, on my first day I was a little nervous but that soon subsided with it only being a small session. I was made to feel comfortable and welcomed by pt’s Jack & Patrick I’ve received online help and advice with food preparation, calorie counting and most importantly exercise. Both Jack and Patrick have been amazing with giving me that extra push during cardio. I’d highly recommend the 12 kick start sessions for anyone lacking confidence but wanting a healthy lifestyle. I’ve lost a little weight and built some muscle something I thought I’d never achieve. Thank you & see you next week
Thanks so much Emma! See you in the gym
Fantastic experience: Amazing place. Cannot believe how my flexibility and strength has improved in just one month with the guidance and coaching. Been in and out of gyms for years, but nothing quite like this. A great bunch of people to train with too. It’s a real community feel. The way all the exercises are adjusted to suit abilities or little injury niggles is great too. Looking forward to kicking on with this now in months and years ahead
Brilliant, thanks Barney!
Fantastic experience: Wow, what else can I say, the 30 day kick-start was exactly what I needed. Before starting I didn't realise how good it would actually be, the small group PTs really help you with your form and it's better than having a PT stood by your side the whole time. They give you time to perform each movement and come round to correct you when/if needed. The team training sessions were even better, an hour of a group of you going as hard as you can, all feeling the same but pushing on throughout, it really is a great community to be in. Thankyou Thrive, I'm sure I'll be back at some point
Thanks Jonny!
Fantastic experience: Jack, Patrick, Michael & Rhia bring a professional friendly atmosphere to the gym. No matter what level of fitness your at the team look after you so you can get the most out of thrive gym!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym and 100% recommend Thrive to anyone. The team are so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The sessions are great and they will adapt for all abilities whether it’s your first time in a gym or a regular. Not only that, the other members welcome you into their community.
Cheers Kev!

Fantastic experience: Never been to a gym before but these guys look after you and adapt to what you can do and they are also very friendly as is everyone who goes there.
Thanks Julie
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. The coaches take the time to understand your goals, strengths and weaknesses and tailor the workouts to suit. Always challenging, always encouraging .
Thanks Mark!
Fantastic experience: Have been a member of Thrive gym for the last two years I could not recommend this gym more The small group sessions are enjoyable and targeted to my needs Patrick Jack and Mike are amazing PTs, motivating inspirational and help you reach your own personal goals The atmosphere is relaxed and I feel part of a team Highly recommended
Thanks Egle
Fantastic experience: Had a great first month at Thrive & now joined for another 6 months. Love the gym & the coaches & the other members! X
Thanks Ash!
Fantastic experience: Consistently clinical programes, scrupulously thought out and delivered through experienced coaches with individual adaptations lined up in advance alongside a wholesome atmosphere set by both the members and coaches. Thrive has a superb range of equipment and workouts that has totally change my views on ‘fitness’ and what’s in my capacity to achieve consistently whilst truly enjoying the journey.
Fantastic experience: I run 3 or 4 times a week but I felt I needed to mix up my exercise to improve my running and help to loose the weight that has crept up. Having been a member of several gyms over the years I was unsure what Thrive could offer to keep me motivated and focussed but I took the recommendations from friends and went for the trial...best decision I made! Both Jack and Patrick are extremely knowledgable, supportive and tailor the workouts to your own ability. They offer a bespoke service and are focussed on what you need and how it will be achieved BUT they also ensure the environment is fun, inclusive and welcoming. The nutrition sessions are great with a realistic approach to being healthy. I can’t recommend Thrive enough...definitely worth the time and investment.
Thanks Julie! See you soon. Jack :)
Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend Thrive enough! It's a great Personal Training Gym with a fun and friendly atmosphere. Suitable for all fitness levels and all exercises are adapted to suit you and where you're at. Definitely look into the kick starter offer and give it a try, you'll love it!
Thanks Lauren
Fantastic experience: I chose Thrive to kickstart my fitness journey after having a long break due to having children. I don't enjoy going to normal gyms due to the size of them and feeling really overwhelmed by all the equipment and not knowing how to use it. I didn't have that problem here. Every workout is really well explained and the staff are very helpful and supportive. I would 100% recommend this place
Thanks Lucy!
Fantastic experience: I started at Thrive on a 6 week kick start program based on a friends recommendation. I've done plenty of gyms and high impact classes previously, since training at Thrive I've learnt this isn't the right exercise for me. The improvement I've noticed in 6 short weeks for me speaks volumes. This is no ordinary gym, the knowledge and encouragement from the coaches is in valueable. Highly recommended.
Thanks Kerry!
Fantastic experience: Training at Thrive is fantastic. The coaches are top of their game. For me personally I like that when I turn up a workout is ready for me & I am walked through it. No need to plan anything for myself so I can switch off & enjoy the session. Would highly recommend!
Thanks Mand!
Fantastic experience: Thrive Personal Training Gym is amazing! Mike, Patrick, Jack and Rhia looked after me well, and I've seen an improvement in my technique and fitness , I really enjoyed the 30 day challenge . highly recommend!!
Fantastic experience: I would definitely recommend Thrive for anyone wanting 3 x PT sessions per week. The trainers are so friendly and attentive to each individual person. My daughter has also been attending for a year now and her body shape has considerably improved, along with her body confidence.
Thanks so much Angela
Fantastic experience: I love going to Thrive OHP gym, it’s changed my life completely and I am a better person for it, both physically and mentally. The coaches are incredible and make you feel comfortable whilst always encouraging you to do your best. I always hated gyms and exercise in general until I joined Thrive, and now I go everyday. The best place!
Thanks Chlo!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Thrive for the past year, and I can't express how much I love this place. It has had such a positive impact on my life. It's more than just a gym; it's a community, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to join. Jack, Patrick, Mike and Rhia are an awesome team! They're incredibly knowledgeable, super friendly, and always ready to go the extra mile to help you if you need anything.
Thanks April!
Fantastic experience: I have just finished the 30 days kick start and cannot recommend these guys enough. I have been to a lot of gyms and gyms of this "type" but none come close to Thrive. The equipment is top notch, the place is spotless and has a brilliant vibe to it. The coaches are so welcoming, fun, encouraging and you can tell they love what they do. I was mainly coached by Jack and a few times by Mike and they are both great. If your thinking about it just do it! You defo wont regret it!
Thanks so much Lynnie, appreciate the review!
Positive experience: A great work out but finished a bit early 40mins instead of and hour!
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, that completely understands you as an individual
Thank you Shelby :)
Fantastic experience: Great gym. With trainers who care.
Thanks Elizabeth
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend Thrive small group PT sessions. Hard work, but well worth it. Not cheap, but considerably less than single person sessions. With the chance to do extra sessions at no extra charge. (3 PT sessions a week, plus other sessions available). These guys will put you through it.
Cheers Snapey!
Positive experience: Lovely gym with great friendly staff!! I enjoyed my 6 week taster course it was timed perfectly to start the new year. Hopefully train there again some time.
Thank you Sally
Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Thrive gym. It’s friendly, inclusive and completely non-intimidating… and I can honestly say I’ve achieved the best results here than any other gym I’ve been to!
Thank you Tracey!
Fantastic experience: Excellent training, knowledgeable, friendly and encouraging coaches. Sessions tailored to the individual no matter your fitness level. Great atmosphere and community
Thank you Sarah!
Fantastic experience: Just completed my 6 week challenge at Thrive, amazing place, great atmosphere with great coaching, they ensured that I understood and was preformed all actions correctly continuously. Lost inches and gained muscle mass. Would highly recommend giving it a go. Thanks to the Thrive team.
Thanks Lisa, all the best!
Fantastic experience: This is the perfect place to train,great vibe from the get go. I finished a 4 week kick start and without hesitation signed up again. After every session I look forward to the next.i used to lack motivation in other gyms,not in this one .
Cheers Ry! See you soon buddy
Fantastic experience: Jack, Mike, Ross & Rhia at Thrive have been the most amazing people I've met in a long time. I could only do six weeks at three times a week , through circumstances I might add . I lost over half a stone. I felt sooo much better ,stronger mentally & physically. I can't thank them enough ... Absolutely marvelous. THANK YOU ALL. xxxx
Was our pleasure to have you Jackie, all the best
Fantastic experience: I am close to finish my 30 day kickstart programme at Thrive and it couldn’t have been better ! The workout sessions have been really fun and change regularly. The PTs always explain exercises and equipment use in depth and make sure every member is on board , never felt left out. Very friendly atmosphere ✌
Thanks Cinthya
Fantastic experience: I took part in their July kick start programme. Four weeks of three training sessions per week, plus excellent nutrition advice. I found all of the Personal Trainers to be both professional and knowledgeable. Lots of coaching advice and alternative movements to help every level of fitness. Best of all was the small classes (10max.) This ensured that the PT was able to coach everyone depending on their needs, so avoiding the chance of injuries through incorrect posture or movements. Real encouragement and regular feedback. I’ve lost pounds and inches, built muscle and feel so much healthier. I would highly recommend this facility.
Thanks Jo-Ann
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, expert team of personal trainers, individualized service, well done, guys!
Thank you Ellie :)
Fantastic experience: From the outset, great communication from Jack, I was to made to feel at ease along with the other newbies at the induction. Booking classes were so simple using an app on my phone, and whilst you can book on classes to suit your own requirements other class members were on the their own fitness journey & all exercises were catered for each person's ability. I've absolutely loved being part of the Thrive team & have decided to make the investment to get me to my fitness goal
Thank you Karen :)
Fantastic experience: I signed up to the kick-start programme at the beginning of August. The group PT sessions were engaging, friendly and tailored to each individual. Jack, Patrick and Mike are really good. The coaching and advice they give is great and I saw the improvements from week one to week four. I’d recommend this place if you’re looking for a good team to work with who don’t make things too complicated and good facilities to train at.
Thank you Fiona
Fantastic experience: Patrick and jack are really friendly and really care about their clients
Thanks Natalie! Jack :)
Fantastic experience: Great facility, exceptional team
Thanks Sam!
Fantastic experience: Best all inclusive gym in the North West!
Thanks Rogie! Jack
Fantastic experience: Been going to gyms for years, but wanted a change this gym is great, small personable team who take time to understand what you need and prepare a plan to suit. No crazy diets, just commitment to help with your nutrition with realistic goals for this and exercise but already seeing great results. Highly recommend.
Thanks Tracey!
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Thrive enough! I was stuck in a rut with my training - endless spin classes and lacking confidence in the gym. My weight was constantly up and down due to trying diets I couldn’t maintain and not really having enough motivation and accountability to be consistent with the gym. It has now been almost a year since I signed up to a trial at Thrive - I have now reached and surpassed the goals I set last year! Everybody is really friendly, the gym and equipment is always immaculate and Jack, Patrick and Mike are SO knowledgable. They will provide you with all the tools, tailoring and motivation you need to reach your own personal goals.
Thanks Em!
Fantastic experience: I have trained with Thrive for over a year and I can't recommend it enough! Jack & Patrick are very knowledgeable and professional in the way they plan / deliver monthly training plans which meet everyone's needs / ability levels. The PT sessions / classes are all very structured and you are shown all techniques / exercises before having a go of them yourself. Jack & Patrick are very patient and dedicate as much time to you as you need. They both create an excellent environment to workout in, to the point where you enjoy coming to the gym! All the members are really friendly and nobody is judged on their levels of ability, shape or size. If you want to get fitter, stronger and healthier...get to Thrive!
Thanks Shaun!
Fantastic experience: Highly Recommend
Thanks Sharon!
Fantastic experience: Great gym with very knowledgeable trainers. Welcoming atmosphere whatever level you are training at and whatever your goal. Highly recommend.
Thanks Ellie!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic Gym where inabilities are turned into abilities and more really friendly atmosphere Steve C
Cheers Stephen!
Fantastic experience: Top class outfit run by top class chaps in Pat and Jack. Clients are good too . Simply never enjoyed going to the gym (at all), now it’s part of my daily routine, love it!
Cheers Ricardo!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place with awesome PT’s who make you feel comfortable, listen & encourage you to achieve your best - would absolutely highly recommend. Would give 6 stars if I could for letting me listen to classic 80’s rock on a Friday during our session!
Thanks Alison!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member here for over 6 months and it's by far the best place I've ever trained. Great PT's with extensive knowledge, small, enjoyable classes and excellent equipment. I would highly recommend to anyone.
Thanks Neil!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym with fantastic, like-minded people who train there! Paddy & Jack are really knowledgable and I couldn’t recommend them, and Thrive, more highly!
Thanks Louise!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Thrive for 5 months now, Jack & Patrick are fantastic. I have back and knee problems, Patrick makes sure that my exercises are challenging and safe. I started with a trail month but wouldn’t go anywhere else now. I absolutely love it, great atmosphere, great equipment, great support. Thanks Patrick & Jack
Thanks Rachel!
Fantastic experience: A great purpose built facility run by extremely knowledgeable and accommodating staff, who genuinely want to help, challenge and support you to achieve your personal goals. A real "community" feel to the place whenever you turn up which can be the extra motivation you need sometimes to turn up and workout! Great gym. Great people.
Thanks Leonnie!
Fantastic experience: Great gym, not too busy, everyone there is so supportive and friendly. Jack and Patrick are a wealth of knowledge and provide structured training that delivers results.
Thanks Lisa!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of numerous gyms over the years but have never really been consistent or stuck to them and have always ended up leaving. Thrive is a completely different type of gym with a really unique ethos. It's not pretentious at all and is not full of muscle-wielding meat-heads or model type posers who make you feel inadequate. Instead, all of the members are friendly, down-to-earth, supportive, like-minded people. The two owners, Patrick and Jack, are extremely knowledgeable as trainers, are friendly and down-to-earth, and are always on hand to help and guide you to reach your goals; whether this be during the individual PT sessions or during the large group classes. They always make you feel so welcome and treat you as an individual, tailoring the sessions to match your level and adapting them if needed, e.g. injury. As others have said, it's a real community feel (and not in an awkward cheesy way) and has really changed my life for the better. I attend all my sessions now without hesitation, knowing that I'll get the most out of the facility, trainers and the social aspect of going. I cannot recommend Thrive Optimal Human Performance enough. Without a shadow of a doubt THE best gym you'll ever have the pleasure of attending.
Thanks ST!
Fantastic experience: I can wholeheartedly recommend Thrive if you are looking for a more personal and challenging gym experience. Unlike other gyms I have been to, Thrive is a spacious, calm and friendly environment, with a good mix of people of different ages, fitness levels and abilities. Jack and Paddy are both very welcoming, assessing carefully your individual needs and ensuring you progress and feel challenged, without feeling out of your depth.
Thanks Liz!
Fantastic experience: Feeling out of shape, unfit, unhealthy and not having been near a gym for 2-3yrs I’d planned on popping in to Thrive several times over a period of a few weeks. A combination of shame at how I’d let myself go and worry of walking into a gym environment had held me back. I wish I hadn’t waited so long. Without doubt the friendliest and most welcoming environment for anyone apprehensive about stepping into a gym. People of all ages and abilities. My training was tailored for my level. The first assessment was relaxed and gave me confidence i wasn’t a lost cause! The sessions are adjusted literally each time to push me just the right amount. Jack and Patrick are firstly genuine decent guys. They know anything you want to ask about and make training fun. Fast forward 4 weeks and I feel in the best shape physically and mentally for the past 5 years. If you’re even 1% considering the trial, honestly just try it and see for yourself. Stay away from the sled though
Cheers Jonny!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of quite a few gyms over the years but Thrive is streets ahead of the rest. Patrick & Jack have a wealth of knowledge & are always on hand to assist if needed when I do my own workouts. The PT sessions & classes are changed monthly so it never gets boring. I've been training for years but I have learnt so much since joining here in November 2018 and I've seen real results. The most stand out thing for me is the community feel they've created. It sounds naff but it really is such a friendly place. There are no posers/bad attitudes to deal with, just like minded people that want to enjoy training & have a laugh. We have drinks on the last Friday of the month & there are other social events you can join in with. Oh & they have the most amazing coffee. What are you waiting for? Join now.
Thanks Squirrel!
Fantastic experience: I'm so pleased I found Thrive. It's an amazing gym run by the fantastic Jack and Patrick! Great guys who know their stuff. Best thing I did was joining them, I've been a member 10 months, I'm feeling fitter, stronger and healthier and I've finally got the gym bug I've always wanted. Jack and Patrick and their great members have been a great help to me through a very tough time in my life, I'd be lost without them, great people in a great environment
Thanks Pam!
