Total Fitness: Opinions

4.9/5 (40 Opinions)
Rowena Welbourn 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Bill for nearly 2 years and I feel so much stronger physically and emotionally. When I started I could only deadline 20kg and now I cam do 85kg! It has also been the only gym I've felt comfortable enough to wear shorts and use the changing room. All the team are really friendly and always say hello and ask after you. Bill especially is such a great listener and gives great advice

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Total Fitness for around 2.5 years and have trained with Mark as my PT for nearly 2 years. I cannot reccomend TF highly enough, the atmosphere is great, everyone is friendly and not pretentious. Mark will keep you focussed and is clearly very knowledgeable when it comes to training. He is also very passionate about helping people to achieve their goals and will work with you to ensure you don't fall off the wagon. The classes are really tough, but the best way to get fit and stay fit. If I could give more stars I would.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. Has a real family feel and I am comfortable working out, there is no judgement and the staff are always happy to help. The only gym I have felt like this at. Met a really good gym buddy too and we now meet twice a week for our sessions. Well done Smithy and the team.

Amy Lemon 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This gym has been absolutely amazing for me! I trained with Smithy for many weeks for PT sessions and did some group sessions with the university woman’s rugby team. Smithy has increased my confidence in the gym and made me feel at ease within my workouts. Not once did I feel uncomfortable or out of place! The staff are all amazing and it has all the equipment you could need. Many thanks guys for all your support!

Fantastic experience: This is a reply to Carols review her comments are below. I myself don’t have a problem. My husband is in a wheelchair & I park in the car park and push him across the road and have plenty of room to push him past the vehicle outside the gym. No problem what’s so ever. Carols Comments Just to share the lack of consideration for pedestrians and people on mobility scooters due to owner repeatedly parking probably illegally right at the front door. Obviously not fit enough to park elsewhere and walk! This is definitely not a good first look! Hopefully your Public Liability insurance extends this far as this is an accident waiting to happen. Took photos but had to upload on photo page.

Fantastic experience: Lovely gym, very welcoming. All the staff are great. I signed up to do 12 PT sessions with Mark and even though he pushes you to achieve you can have a giggle to. Will be rebooking again in the new year for sure. Can’t recommend enough, You won’t be disappointed. Best decision, I made was to join the total team.

Fantastic experience: What an incredible gym! These guys are so friendly and welcoming. I’ve been coming here for several months now and really look forward to it. Joe the PT is outstanding, and I’m sure the other trainers are just as good Health is your greatest Wealth and if you want to improve your health and fitness in a positive environment this is the place to go! And If you want to push yourself further than you ever thought possible, get a coach too. It’s cheaper than you think. Thank you guys!

Fantastic experience: Smithy and team make you feel so welcome and safe when doing a work out. If you have any pre-existing conditions (I have an old injury from a trapped nerve in my shoulder), they recommend suitable exercises to build you make to strength. If you come in, motivated, determined and willing to push yourself - they will encourage you and support you every step of the way.

Fantastic experience: Mark and his team have created a fantastic gym. The gym is designed to push you whilst not being intimidating and suiting different levels and abilities. There's a good mix of different types of classes that change regularly. I always enjoy the classes and work up a good sweat! I have tried a few different gyms in Plymouth and this is by far my favourite.

Fantastic experience: Being a mum of a 7 month old finding time to workout myself is so hard but being able to bring her along to Total Fitness is amazing! I’m able to bring her and her toys and I can get a workout in while she plays.. the team is so lovely and welcoming and always chatting away to her! I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else now and definitely recommend if you’ve got little children

Shion Reynell 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Total fitness is such a great independent gym. As someone who had little confidence in a gym atmosphere, total fitness is such a supportive and encouraging atmosphere and all of the staff are really great. It has really good hygiene practices and equipment and changing rooms are always spotless. The owner makes you feel really welcome and they offer a few different deals whether you want to join classes or not. Would highly recommend!

Emily Elizebeth 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Total fitness is an excellent gym- the staff are all friendly, the atmosphere is really encouraging, and it feels really safe during Covid as efforts have clearly been made to keep it as hygienic as possible. As it's a private gym you get a far more personal experience, and you can tell the staff genuinely want to help you reach your fitness goals. Couldn't recommend more
