Westward Barbell

Fantastic experience: Fab coaches and a warm, welcoming environment to work out in classes or solo.

Fantastic experience: I Joined just over a year ago with no previous experience in lifting and a pretty poor fitness level and have learnt so much within this time thanks to Westward Barbell. So no matter what stage you're at the group PT sessions can always be accommodated to you. Has kept me consistent and always enjoy going and has helped me push myself to do things I wouldn't usually try. Great coaches and lovely members.

Fantastic experience: A genuinely welcoming friendly gym. Really good coaching. Routines scaled to meet ability, accommodate injuries and support rehab which seems to be more frequent as I’ve got older!

Fantastic experience: I recently started at Westward Barbell, I’m a busy mum and needed something to push me whilst also understanding that we’re not all one size fits all like other gyms. Colin is a fantastic coach, after a few years out of fitness I have felt really low in confidence and needed guidance. Colin makes you feel at ease and encourages you in such an understanding way. Everyone is really friendly and it’s great fun. The sessions are planned well and can suit all levels. If you want something to make you feel fitter, stronger and leave you smiling this is the place for you!

Fantastic experience: Having next to no gym experience aside from cardio, whilst also being in the midst of recovery from a herniated disc, joining the gym was a really daunting thought for me. However down at Westward Barbell both the PT and other members were so welcoming that I needn’t have worried. When I first joined I was still struggling with some considerable back pain and strength issues in my legs after months of limited movement. The PT was really attentive to my needs and ensured that I went at a safe and achievable pace that’d enable me to get back and moving. 10 months later I have rebuilt so much of my strength and my back feels stronger than ever. There was a time where I thought I wouldn’t have been able to do a lot of the things I love again, now that isn't even a thought. it wouldn’t have been possible without the expertise of everyone in this gym. The group PT sessions are fantastic, your form is always being monitored but you are also given space to do your own thing. It ticks every box for me. I would (and do) recommend this gym to people who want to start out on their journey and also those who already have masses of experience. It’s a great place, it’s great value and I really rate it.

Fantastic experience: Great gym situated in Crediton. Fantastic CrossFit classes as well as open gym. 24 hour access for members which is really beneficial. Staff are excellent

Fantastic experience: A really supportive and well equipped gym. Coach is super knowledgable, scaling movements when I need. I always feel like I've smashed every workout and accomplished something

Fantastic experience: The group sessions at Westward barbell are great, friendly members and PT. When I started I didn't know anything about lifting weights or proper form but Colin was there to make sure I was doing things right and not going to get injured. It's been just over a year since I started and I can't imagine going anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: I have PT sessions with Colin and so far I'm really pleased. He's knowledgeable, qualified and puts up with my blonde moments. The gym has so many great facilities and there is also the option for group sessions, sports massage and pole dancing!

Fantastic experience: Great setup, awesome people to workout with and great guidance. Really like the group sessions and the benefit of working out together. Wouldn't want to go back to working out alone now no way. Learned loads of new skills and I'm fitter than I ever have been.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic staff running the place. Excellent personal coaching and great facilities; it's good value for money as well. Plenty of parking available. It's definitely the best place to train in the area.

Fantastic experience: A really unique facility, that offers so much more than any other gyms that I have used. The group training sessions are great, and the support from the owner and other PTs is second to none. Highly recommended.
