Barrie Mark Personal Training Gym- Carlisle

Fantastic experience: Since starting at BMPT I can honestly say it has improved my health and fitness so much and I would highly recommend this to anyone. The PT's are fantastic and knowledgeable with a great sense of humour, they know when to push you and the sessions are great for working different areas of the body! The community of people attending the sessions are so welcoming and there's lots of encouragement and laughs. If you're thinking of joining a gym, get in touch with these guys.

Fantastic experience: I first joined BMPT when I was waiting for a knee replacement, and soon found that adding more strength work into my fitness plan made me much more prepared for the operation. Since my op, I’ve returned and continued to build more strength - it’s amazing how much this does for reducing pain, as well as improving stability and flexibility. BMPT is far more than a typical gym. What they offer is very well-informed guidance on strength training, fitness, nutrition and lifestyle, whether you’re already fit or on an early stage if your journey. Even more than that, though, I have been impressed by the levels of personalisation provided. It’s definitely not a one-size-fits-all gym: exercises and movements are adapted according to ability, injury or medical issues, so that everyone is cared for while still being challenged. There’s also a social element - both during sessions and with the outside events that are planned regularly. People are encouraged to chat and relax together and it all helps to keep your motivation going. I’ve recently started the Team Training sessions as well to add a bit more intensity… something that a few years ago I’d never have thought I’d be saying. My husband, who isn’t usually one to follow my recommendations, has also joined recently. He took advantage of the free trial sessions offered and this really helped him to see the advantages for himself.

Fantastic experience: It's just not like other gyms, friendly people and professional staff. None of this running for hours on a treadmill, or a bike that goes nowhere. These guys mix things up, they're professional, knowledgeable, personable & approachable (I know, in a gym - who'd have thought it) I started here a little over two years ago with the intention of 'getting a bit fitter', and that was my only goal. I gave it three months to see how I liked it and, I'm still here. I expected it to be like any other gym, scantily dressed barbie types and over muscular he-men grunting and strutting around. Nope, none of that, not one bit. The people I train with are normal people, with normal aspirations and normal appearance. It's a family, with everyone encouraging everyone else and the PT's bring it all together into a total break from life for that hour a day. Today, I've shed a load of fat, built lean muscle and made a large part of my wardrobe redundant. I was asked recently what I loved about the gym, and I couldn't really answer the question. What I do know, I really miss it when I'm not there for my usual sessions.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant supportive environment

Fantastic experience: Very professional, they care about every client. This will be me starting my fourth year with BMPT and I’ve never looked back. Great team of PT’s, training to suit all abilities. I’m having to take a step back with my sessions as I’ve other challenges going on but they’ve taken the time to tailor a training plan around this to incorporate strength and conditioning work as well as recovery and help me along the way. I can’t recommend them highly enough, it is personal and that’s what makes BMPT a cut above.

Fantastic experience: I joined November 2020 after a 30 day trial, never thinking I would still be a part of this amazing gym, it is now a way of life, five times a week. I feel fitter and stronger both physically and mentally. The PT’s are exceptional, very professional and knowledgeable, they know you better than you know yourself encouraging you to push yourself just that little bit further. No two sessions the same, keeps it interesting and fun along with the banter. Sessions can/are individual according to ability. Everyone is friendly, helpful and encouraging, it is a great community to be part of forging new friendships. The gym has a pleasing welcoming environment without being pretentious. Everyone should give it a go, you don’t know until you’ve tried it.

Positive experience: I joined Barrie Mark PT 10 about months ago after doing a 3 month trial period and I have been very happy. From the very beginning I was greeted by all staff and members with great warmth and friendliness. There is a very happy and welcoming atmosphere and the staff are very professional and enjoy what they do. I have never liked going to a gym to exercise and have preferred aerobics classes but since reaching a certain age I found that my muscles were getting weaker and my aches and pains more frequent, and I was suffering from a shoulder injury, so I decided to join BM, as it offers personalised training - tailored to our needs- but in a small group environment. The trainers are knowledgeable and know how far to push you and everyone there is always encouraging and non judgmental. They also offer team training sessions which I really enjoy as they test our limits and encourage team effort in accomplishing different targets… and the atmosphere is great! Since joining I have noticed a difference in my body in terms of building up strength in my legs and upper body and my shoulder is so much better. They also have a small community where members and staff organise and take part in various fundraising activities and I can see how a lot of people have formed close friendships as well! It is a gym that I haven’t come across before and I would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Lucy Rigg - Member for 3 Months Prior to joining BMPT I had tried several different commercial gyms. I never felt comfortable in them, they were always very busy and very over whelming. I first started hearing about BMPT about 18 months ago, I loved how it was like a little family, the encouragement everyone involved had for each other was lovely and it was something I wanted to be a part of. Since joining BMPT my confidence and strength have excelled. I always said I wouldn’t be able to lift weights but in the last 3 months whilst being a member I have proved myself completely wrong. My mental health has improved massively, I never understood what people were talking about when they mentioned endorphins making you feel good, i had felt the feeling of being proud of yourself after a run etc but never felt the benefits days after until now. The support off other BMPT members, the PTs, the welcoming vibe and the banter in sessions is what makes me keep coming back. The amount of time I would just spend my evenings sat on the sofa after work doing absolutely nothing and now the only evening I don’t exercise is a Wednesday. As soon as I finish my session I am looking forward to the next. If someone is looking at joining a gym where they are struggling with confidence, mental health, anxiety or are put off going to a commercial gym because they don’t know what to do or how to use the equipment, I would tell anyone to pop in to BMPT and speak to them. They aren’t the type of gym to talk you into joining then not follow through with anything they’ve said, they are so committed and know everyone so well. You’re not just a number at BMPT, you’re an adoptive member of a little family. I can’t wait to carry on training at BMPT and can’t thank them enough for how much they’ve changed my out look on life over the past 3 months.

Fantastic experience: Having not taken part in any form of structured exercise since leaving school (about 100 years ago) and with a history of lower back problems, I decided to try to get fitter/stronger before my first grandchild arrived. That was around Sept/Oct 2022. Originally, I signed up for the Barrie Mark PT 30-day trial, never really expecting to make it through that month but here I am, 18 months later, still a member & feeling proud of all that I’ve managed to achieve. The PT’s create sessions that are both varied & structured, bringing out the best in all participants. These can be adapted on the spot if anyone has a specific need (they start each session checking how everyone feels). To know you have someone keeping an eye on your technique & encouraging you to reach your true potential is priceless. As is the community spirit that they’ve managed to create, where everyone is welcoming & supportive in a non-judgemental way. The semi-private sessions really give you an opportunity to push yourself in a safe environment whilst the team ones are a whole other level but so much fun. If you’d told me a couple of years ago that one day I’d be attending a gym 3 or 4 times a week I’d have laughed in your face but that’s what BMPT does for you. The difference to my strength & fitness is worth every bit of effort it’s taken & I would highly recommend giving it a go. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member at BMPT since October 2023 and it's been the most incredible experience. Since having children my weight increased and fitness decreased and I wanted to change this. I hadn't done any meaningful exercise in over 10 years and didn't have the confidence or knowledge around gym equipment to step foot in a regular gym.I'd seen BMPT advertised on Facebook and thought I'd give it a try. Very quickly I learned that BMPT is unique. Each session you are supported and challenged by the team of PTs. The groups are small and tailored to your needs. Everything is done with purpose and a good team spirit. I feel the benefits already, I feel fitter and stronger physically but I also feel fitter and stronger mentally too, which was a completely unexpected outcome, but an outcome that keeps me coming back just as much as the physical benefits. There is also a real social community at BMPT with monthly social events so it ticks all the boxes for me. As a side note, initially I was a bit worried about the cost of membership. It was a lot more than I ever imagined paying for a fitness membership especially with limited disposable income, the cost of living and a young family. But from what I've experienced at BMPT and the benefits I feel in a relatively short space of time this is worth every penny. BMPT is the best investment I have ever made for my health, which can only improve over time. I feel like this is quite a long review but I could talk about BMPT to everyone, all day! For anyone who is on the fence about joining, you won't look back if you give it a try.

Fantastic experience: Joined 5 years ago this month, have never felt as healthy. Anyone thinking of joining just do it you will not regret it.

Fantastic experience: BMPT is the absolute best and I love being part of it. The PT's really care about you and sessions are always adapted to your own individual needs. It has such a great friendly atmosphere, PT's and members are all supportive, motivating and encouraging. It is life changing and I can't recommend BMPT highly enough.

Fantastic experience: At Barrie Mark Personal Training I have found the friendly encouragement and guidance from all the Personal Trainers and camaraderie from the fellow members has enabled me to grow stronger in body and spirit over the past year. The Zoom sessions during the lockdowns have been a lifeline. Try it, love it, feel better for it.

Fantastic experience: I took advantage of the 30 day trial, which gave me a chance to see if it was what I was looking for. Having never been to a gym before I wasn't sure what to expect. What I found was a friendly professional team who made sure they understood my aims and goals and structured my training to match my abilities and fitness level. 4 months in and I'm seeing the results I wanted and more.

Fantastic experience: I have only joined recently, but already feel the benefits. I have more energy, have lost weight and am getting stronger. The PT's do a great job and are always encouraging. I would recommend anyone to join.

Fantastic experience: Although not a business interaction related to PT, I can't praise Barrie highly enough for his courteous and friendly manner. He was extremely helpful, trustworthy and pleasant from start to finish. I know if I was looking for a PT, I'd want these characteristics. Thanks again

Fantastic experience: BMPT is 5 stars in all areas!! The personal trainers, the members, and the facilities ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joining BMPT and training alongside like minded people under the careful supervision of the personal trainers is fantastic and I would highly recommend to anybody looking at improving their overall fitness and wellbeing.

Fantastic experience: I'm 53 years old and suffer with osteoarthritis in my knees. I've been a member of BMPT for 6 years and within this time I've become fitter and stronger. At the start of each session the PT'S ask how we are feeling and if we have any niggles or injuriesthey need to be aware of, they will then adapt our session to suit our needs. What other gym does this? There is a great atmosphere at the gym and we all encourage one another within the sessions, it doesn't matter what level you are at, you will have the support. I am proud to be a member and honoured to be an ambassador to represent the gym, within my role I organise regular menopause meetings where we just all sit have a coffee and a cake (yes cake), share our stories listen and laugh. We organise social events each month and this enables members new and old to get together. We also raise money for some amazing charity's. This is my happy place and time for myself. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to BMPT gym for a couple of years now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. I have a health issue and the team at BMPT have gone out of their way to help and support me whilst encouraging me in my quest to get fit. I’ve been to many gyms or exercise classes in my time they are nothing like being a part of the BMPT family. They support the whole you .

Fantastic experience: Not just a 'gym' - a unique, friendly network of people who are there because they love to be. The atmosphere oozes positivity where everyone including the members have a genuine desire and care for everyone's happiness. The most encouraging place I've been to, has changed the way I see gyms and exercise.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at BMPT for a couple of years now and don’t know what I would’ve done without it! When I first joined I had never stepped foot in a gym, I now go regularly 3-4 times a week. All staff at BMPT are amazing and each class is challenging but really enjoyable, I can’t thank them enough for always encouraging me. My results after the first 6 months of being a member made me feel amazing, not just physically but mentally too. Couldn’t recommend enough. ☺️

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to gyms all my life and all I can say BMPT is the best way to train with PTs who know what they are doing and helping you achieve your goals. Also the best thing about BMPT is the people you train with become your inspiration to push yourself and achieve goals you never thought possible. So do yourself a favour and join for a better and healthier lifestyle. Mike

Fantastic experience: I've only been going to BMPT for 3 months, and I love it, I feel alot better in myself, physically and mentally. The staff are very friendly and helpful, they explain everything and show you how to do the exercise, when I struggle they're beside me encouraging me, the other members are the same, it's a very friendly place to exercise.

Fantastic experience: This is a real great little gym if you want friendly, personalised and structured workouts that will get you fit and strong. Its built around group PT sessions so you get just enough attention without the awkward intensity you can get with 1 on 1 PT. The staff are very knowledgable, listen carefully, and can adapt to any injuries you have. I’m finding it harder to build and maintain strength as I get older so it’s been fantastic to feel the power coming back into my legs when I’m cycling up hills or playing football with your kids. There’s a little community around the gym as well so if you want to expand your social life there’s the chance to meet new people.

Fantastic experience: BMPT has changed my life, The PTs are amazing. The sessions are so well thought out and tailored to each member. It's not a "normal" gym by any means, It's one big happy family! It doesn't matter which session you attend there are always friendly members who make you feel welcome. I can't recommend BMPT enough. If your looking for a friendly, none judgemental, great atmosphere gym then this is the place for you.

Fantastic experience: Following a health issue in 2021 I decided to try a gym to increase my strength and fitness and to improve how my body looks. I joined at the end of Jan and I am absolutely loving the gym, all of the staff are friendly and motivational. My partner is amazed that I now go to a gym 3 times a week! Love it!!

Fantastic experience: I joined in November 2019 and I am still a member I absolutely love this place it is my favourite place to be. The staff and the members are amazing very welcoming and we love to help, encourage and support each other. Every session is personalized to you. If you are like me and feel out of place at the gym but really want to go this is definitely the place for you. we are all there to better ourselves there is absolutely no judgement or worry about what you can or can't do. They go above and beyond to help you get to where it is you would like to be. My opinion stop thinking about it and join us now you won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: I joined BMPT just over a year ago one of the best decisions I have ever made. The PT's are so knowledgeable + motivating. There is no problem if they have to adapt an exercise for you to be able to complete it. I have knee problems + they have worked wonders in this last year. The atmosphere at the gym is fantastic. Everyone is so friendly + welcoming, staff + fellow members. There's also a social side with various night outs + other activities organised. So much more then your normal gym. I 'm totally hooked.

Fantastic experience: I'm 65 and have never been in a Gym in my life! I was attracted to the semi-private fitness sessions with a personal instructor supervising my technique and ensuring I was challenged, but safe. I joined the 30 day trial and have not looked back. You get exactly what they say, and more. I've signed up for the year and last week went to the gym 4 times in a week!

Fantastic experience: I ve never felt so fit and strong in a long time the instructors are brilliant they push you ( knowing your capability) encourage you and most of all guide you. You are never judged, made to feel inadequate and everyone who walks through those doors is an equal. This gym feels like a community everyone gets on well and encourages each other and there is such a good vibe there and I look forward in going

Fantastic experience: Loving it staff are amazing

Fantastic experience: Great team of professionals who have a genuine interest in your training, health and well-being.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant place full of profesional PT's and Happy clients. 10 out of 10

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fabulous team of PTs! Each and every one is professional and supports you in anyway they can whilst making it enjoyable and achievable for each individual! Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Best place to go for fitness and nutrition! All the staff are very professional and friendly making you feel comfortable! Made me fall in love with exercise!

Fantastic experience: The professionalism and knowledge of all staff is second to none and I could not recommend this gym more highly.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, knowledgeable & helpful trainers, good atmosphere to workout in.

Fantastic experience: Definitely more than a gym! Great variety of classes and really knowledgeable PT’s. Full programme of live online sessions available immediately upon lockdown and even when sessions are remote PT’s are correcting posture and technique. Everyone’s really encouraging and supportive and there’s all sorts of support available from nutrition to mindset and from live classes to recorded sessions “on demand” It’s a life changer !!

Fantastic experience: Excellent Facilities, great staff really helpful with any queries and get the best out of you both mentally and physically! Perfect little gym. Totally worth the money, commitment needed but once you get into the swing of things your flying! You get what you give!

Fantastic experience: Everyone at BMPT are very professional and provide excellent advice. The setting is fantastic with quality equipment in a clean and safe environment. Would definitely recommend!!

Fantastic experience: I tried the 30 day trial back in october last year. And 5 months later I am still attending the gym 4 times a week. I immediately felt at home and relaxed in the best gym in Carlisle by far. Barry leads by example and is so passionate about providing a good friendly personalised service to all members. I have an underlying health condition and needed to loss weightbecome fitter and increase my overall mobility. Attending bmpt has achieved all these aims in a short period of time during the lockdown we have been doing zoom gym sessions. These have kept me going both physically and mentally during such a busy time of crisis. I would recommend bmpt if your serious about improving your health and fitness.

Fantastic experience: I have experienced Barrie Mark Fitness through a free trial. The staff are outstanding, friendly, very knowledgeable, work hard as a team. I would Highly recommend to others to experience. For me it’s out of my monthly fitness budget but had a great time and learned new fitness routines. Thank you to the Barrie Mark team for your time, kindness and professionalism when I was there. Emx

Fantastic experience: What can I say.... well they saved me. Mostly from myself. I did a 30 day trial after lockdown had added pounds to my body and stress to my mind. They made me feel welcomed and safe, everyone was wonderful including the other clients, they listened to and understood my goals, supported my to have the confidence to push myself and make the changed I needed, I really am part of a family at BMPT so much so I actually brought my family, and now my Aunt is a member too!! Honestly if I’m doubt... don’t be, try them you won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: Five star training facility with fabulous personal trainers. Have been a member for 5 years and wished I had joined sooner. My happy place.

Fantastic experience: A highly professional, well organised gym with friendly and skilled instructors who encourage everyone. The trainers are also very good at differentiating exercises if you’re carrying any sort of injury. First rate selection of class choices, even over the lockdown period when the gym quickly moved back to online classes. Excellent support all round. Gym ambassadors are highly motivated and are always there for support, particularly on the social front organising quizzes and entertainment. All in all, an excellent gym!

Fantastic experience: I started in June of last year after spending years at a gym (big brand name) it’s the best thing I have done, we are doing zoom sessions at the moment, I love them, you don’t feel like you are on your own in your dining room and that’s due to the team from BMPT and it’s members. If I have struggled or need help with anything they are there. The work they have put in over the past year has been amazing, I would definitely recommend it.

Fantastic experience: BMPT is a well run by a great team. Barrie is hands on when it comes to the clients. He is involved in your journey from the get go. Supporting you and advising you. His no nonsense approach to health and fitness is amazing. He is not like the big corporate gyms who's bosses are invisible. He doesn't just want you to sign up and never turn up for sessions, he wants you to succeed and achieve. To assist him in that he has a great team of Personal Trainers. They are professional and excellent at what they do. They all share Barries work ethos, beliefs in how to achieve that and are always there to help you whether it's physical or nutritional. There is also access to Nutritional experts should you need more in depth advice such as diet or if diabetic to help you get the best from your training. Communication during the pandemic has been amazing and the umerous diverse training sessions provided live via ZOOM have been brilliant. So I would definitely recommend BMPT if you you want to change your life. Whether you want to lose weight, get fit or just get 'ripped' then this is for you. Come join the BMPT family as that is what it is! You will make new friends with other clients and help each other on your journey. Even during the pandemic the BMPT team put on social events such as quizzes online...How many other gyms do that!?? Look forward to meeting you!

Fantastic experience: Not just any old Gym, a gym where they actually care about you, you the person trying to better yourself, you the person who is trying to be a little fitter stronger both physically and mentally. No tired treadmill's to wear yourself out on, just great coaching, encouragment and support. Every moment spent at BMPT, with one of their fabulous PT's is about You, the client. I can't thank them enough, my fitness and mobility has improved so much in the past 2 years. Not just a Gym, a BMPT gym xx

Fantastic experience: I began training with BMPT in September with the 30 day trial and 8 weeks after the arrival of my second son. Other than my beautiful rainbow baby, joining BMPT has been one of the few positive things to come out of 2020 for me. Making time for yourself is so important and training has given me the ‘me’ time I’ve needed to function as a mum, wife, sister, daughter and friend. Life’s hard for everyone at the moment and taking care of our body is a way of protecting our mind also. Exercising with BMPT at home or in the gym has become my ‘happy place.’ Barrie and his fab team of trainers are so down to earth and have helped me achieve all my initial goals. Online training has been amazing, very skeptical at first but you don’t need fancy gym equipment or a huge understanding of IT to train on zoom. What have you got to lose?

Positive experience: I have been a member for about a year I have joined other gyms in the past but this has out shined them all personnel trainers are easy to talk to ,adapt exercises to your ability. The best part is there is no gym snobbery that you can sometimes get in other gyms, all abilities made to feel welcome.

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried a few different gyms over the years and this is the best one. No contest. The PTs are not only knowledgeable, but really get to know your capabilities really quickly. They know when to challenge and also when to support. The group sizes are really small - about 6 people. Really personal and friendly. The facilities are clean and modern with free parking. I wouldn’t go anywhere else now.

Fantastic experience: Great gym & great staff who always go above and beyond. Best gym I’ve been a member of, as there is just a really good positive atmosphere and BMPT have built an amazing community with their members. The way BMPT dealt with switching to online training in 2020 because of the pandemic was first class. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: BMPT is a game changer! I’d never got on with gyms as got bored and lost motivation! However BMPT are there with you during sessions, adapting them daily to make them interesting and varied, they’re also so personalised! Adapting to individual needs! BMPT have gone above and beyond to support us during the lockdowns! Getting better and better with each one! The gym never closed, switched instantly to zoom! They regularly ask for feedback and adapt there programme accordingly! Feel so fortunate to have found BMPT! I was sceptical when told everyone was so friendly but they really are! My confidence was at an all time low when joining, but was such a friendly and supportive environment that is soon started to build again! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: After probably the longest running trial due to Covid stopping and starting my in house training - I was so impressed and support by Barrie and his team at BMPT I joined! Barrie is friendly, approachable and took my "gym fear" away. The instructors are supportive but motivating and really take the time to get to know you. I was the person who hated gyms, joined and never went - probably the perfect member as not using their equipment - no chance here - small personal groups, tailored support and regular check ins if you do not attend. Communication during the pandemic has been amazing and I have now signed up to the online training sessions provided live via ZOOM - they have been brilliant. So I would definitely recommend BMPT if you want to start on a journey like I have. It has been great for my mental health, my fitness and whilst early days, I can see it will help me change my life for the better! Thanks Barrie and everyone @ TeamBMPT! Sue

Fantastic experience: BMPT isn’t your standard gym it’s a lot more than that , it doesn’t matter if you are a novice or a experienced gym user, they will tailor the sessions to your ability. The staff are friendly and professional and will keep you right . Whilst in lockdown they have been doing sessions through zoom that has kept everyone going through these hard times. As I was saying BMPT isn’t just a gym it’s a lot more than that , they care about the members.

Fantastic experience: The best personal training service. I’ve never achieved such good and sustainable results anywhere else and it’s down to the brilliant support and advice from BMPT. All the team are very professional and approachable. When I started I was a beginner and had that typical ‘fear’ of walking into a gym but all the trainers put you at ease and tailor everything to suit you and your current abilities. All the other members are really friendly and encouraging - I never feel like anyone is judging me or hurrying me along. If you are looking to make long term positive changes to your lifestyle, this is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: I've been with BMPT for just over a year. Having never set foot in a gym before, Barrie and the team did an amazing job of making me feel welcome and at ease. The trainers are fantastic and know how much they can push you, so you get the most out of every session. I have a number of complex health issues and the team have always been really supportive and adapted the session to make sure I can keep moving safely. The other members are incredible! I was worried people would judge and laugh when I couldn't keep up. Everyone has been super supportive and I feel so comfortable in the sessions. The Team has been really proactive during lockdown to make sure we can keep moving at home. They introduced online sessions which are just as much of a work out as you'd get in the gym. If you want to improve your health, for whatever reason, and you're looking for results, this is the place for you!

Fantastic experience: Best gym - ever

Fantastic experience: very professional..looking forward to the programme.

Fantastic experience: A real gym that cares about those who use it,

Fantastic experience: Carlisle's best gym by far a team dedicated to your fitness needs with superb personal trainers in a very friendly environment.

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I've ever been to. Everyone makes you feel so welcome. I love it!

Fantastic experience: Youve been to gyms BUT YOU HAVENT BEEN TO THE BEST GYM !!! I have !!! Barrie marks is by far the best of the best . Give it a try you will never look back . I am hooked . Top pt's working with and around you at all times . A great nutricianilist that will advise you and is allways on hand . An amazing lasy to greet you , members that are all friendly and helpful and an owner who goes above and beyond to better what he has to offer and to make you a better version of you x

Fantastic experience: After starting out on the 30 day trial it didn’t take me long to decide that i wanted become a member. I had zero confidence when i joined as I’d never been part of a gym before. Barrie and his team ensured that I was shown how to use all of the equipment and all the members made me feel welcome. Great place with great people. It’s definitely a gym with a difference.

Fantastic experience: For the first time in years I feel part of a team. Everyone at this gym (members and staff) is friendly, welcoming and encouraging. It is a refreshing change from feeling the odd one out because I'm not part of a clique, don't have the cool clothes, sweat loads and don't already look so slim I don't even have to try. People talk to you here - for the very first time I have facebook friends from the gym - all other gyms i have been to I don't even know anyone's name! The support that you have both personal and through online resources is really good and the fact that there are now activities that you can use as motivation (like and Everest trip or the team winter games) is a really different way to keep members engaged. I undertook a 10 week programme which has transformed me, I am happy in my skin genuinely for the first time in about 10 years. I am happy to invest in myself through membership to this gym because they want you to achieve your goals and i am more likely to reach my goals because i don't want to let them down!. You are more than a member and more than just money through the books. Above all they really care about their members and this is more than just a gym.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place! Superb Boss! Superb trainers, superb gym, location great, free parking but most of all its just like a great big family. Nothing is too much trouble for Barrie and his team. You can clearly see what they do for us. Best gym ever!!

Fantastic experience: Anyone who is looking to join a gym that doesn't have much in the way of gym confidence, then I can't recommend this place enough. I really enjoy each session I go to, it's never boring as the classes always have something new to offer. The personal trainers help each personal individually, and have great tips on how to improve. Its certainly different from the mainstream gyms I've been to before and I wouldn't want to go back to any other gym now I work out here!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym and staff
