SSA - Personal Training Gym

Fantastic experience: Just a few weeks in, twice a week, and feeling stronger and fitter. Mobility less of an issue and these guys provide the support, encouragement and motivation to improve. Best I’ve felt in a long time. Cheers Ben & Ollie

Fantastic experience: Signed up to train with SSA 15 years ago and have never looked back. The gym has evolved over these years providing me with a wide range of exercise, nutrition and overall fitness knowledge. I wouldn't train anywhere else. It's a great blend of hard work and comradery with a comfortable feel making going to the gym an enjoyable experience. I have never felt better about my fitness than I do now (in my mid-50s). Sign up--you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: 4/5 months ago I could barely walk across the supermarket car park but now I’m training 3 times a week. I can say that SSA has truly changed my life. Fantastic coaches and equally fantastic venue.

Fantastic experience: One of the many things I love about SSA is the variety and challenge of the programs. Programs change every month and are well balanced and interesting. They definitely help me to feel strong and fitter. Really good to have such such variety in a gym environment!

Fantastic experience: I have really enjoyed being a member here. I would recommend SSA to anyone who likes to lift weights properly within a small group of people. All the other members are friendly, and we often have a laugh whilst training which somedays I really benefit from!

Fantastic experience: I joined in February 2022 and have thoroughly enjoyed the personal training sessions and getting to know the other members. Everyone is so friendly. I really like that the classes are small in numbers. Both Ben and Olly are such good coaches and very attentive and always there to ensure I’m doing everything correctly. They are so good at keeping me motivated. I’m training consistently nowadays and really look forward to attending each class. Great fun… Join now-you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: A rare experience of a gym that keeps you wanting to go back. No room for egos, just people who want to get and keep fit in a very supportive atmosphere and reap the benefits.

Fantastic experience: SSA is just the most fun you can have at the gym (but that doesn't mean it's not taken seriously). Whatever your goals, this is the gym to join if you enjoy variety in your workout; the benefit of extremely knowledgeable trainers who guide and motivate you, and help you to achieve; and importantly, all this in a clique-free environment where you can be yourself. PS there are no mirrors. PPS which is a GOOD thing! PPPS come join us, you won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: A great way to start the day and get in some focused and enjoyable exercise

Fantastic experience: Great place to get fit, get strong, improve your mental health, and escape life. Personal training that you won't find anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at SSA for over 5 years now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. The facility is amazing, modern and very well equipped. The coaches are knowledgeable, professional and motivating. If you are looking to get healthier, fitter or take your training to the next level, then I’d highly recommend giving SSA a go.

Fantastic experience: Excellent coaching, aligned to your own goals.

Fantastic experience: Great place to come and leave your stresses at the door, knowledgable trainers and friendly members with a fantastic atmosphere

Fantastic experience: You can be yourself. The coaches are really knowledgeable. Great atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: A short post if not enough to describe how much SSA has changed my life, it has encouraged me to find myself, I am stronger both mentally and physically and I have fallen in love with exercise and training again. This is not just a gym, this is so much more, and you'll only find out if you join!

Fantastic experience: By the numbers, since joining SSA back in 2019, I have: -lost 4 stone -increased my salary by 10K a year -And have been training consistently for 4 years SSA has given me not just a gym but a space to recover. I sought them out after I realised I had gone as far as I could on my own. I was looking for a gym that did weight training as that was my interest. However, I found a space that has helped me to recover, and develop. Without SSA I wouldn't have mentally been in a position to look for a better job and I certainly wouldn't have had the confidence to go for the job I did. I now love the job that I have. Although things are always going to be up and down SSA has given me a toolbox to better deal with situations and problems. I now have the confidence to go train on my own, at different gyms. This would have been unthinkable a couple of years ago, but now I have that "toolbox." It is expensive, but I'm worth investing in, and so are you.

Fantastic experience: I joined Suffolk strength academy just over 3 years ago, I had never belonged to a gym before and I did absolutely no fitness. It is a gym that stands out for me it’s has 2 wonderful coaches that take their time with you which personally I need quite often ,small classes or group training available depending on what suits you and then there is the other members that welcome you every session with a smile it’s just amazing

Fantastic experience: Simply a brilliant place to train, 1st class coaches, welcoming and friendly environment, with really nice, genuine members.

Fantastic experience: I've been at Suffolk Strength Academy for a couple of months now and I absolutely love it! I have been a member of commercial gyms before but found I would always get bored with my training and just end up skipping the gym all the time. At suffolk Strength academy I am more motivated than ever, the coaches are great at pushing you harder than you would ever push yourself! The other members are great and have been so welcoming. Social events are arranged with the members. We are all made to feel like valuable members of the academy. I would recommend suffolk Strength academy to anyone, of any fitness level!

Fantastic experience: Suffolk Strength Academy has been my second home for around 4 years now and it has changed my life for the better. I’ve lost 30kg so far and it’s encouraged me to get involved with other activities that I would have never previously considered. Best gym. Best trainers. Great atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Ultra focused training, great members and overall an awesome atmosphere for people of all levels.

Fantastic experience: The knowledge the coaches have is obvious from the first time you walk through the door. They structure the programs to enable everyone to achieve their goals what ever their ability. That combined with the atmosphere and the friendliness of the members makes it a unique gym in Ipswich. The only way to get it is to try SSA

Fantastic experience: I've been attending SSA for almost a year now, the longest I've ever stuck to any kind of fitness program! I've seen an improvement in my attitude, my mental health, and of course my physique and my fitness, and I'm certain it's affected all areas of my life for the better. As someone who saw fitness as a chore, I now really look forward to my sessions. Ben and Oli, the PT's, are highly experienced, knowledgeable, fun and intuitive, and seem to know how to get the best out of each individual. The gym members are like a big family, welcoming and supportive. I'm a member for life!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been at Suffolk Strength for over 2 years now and it's by far exceeded anything I thought I would get from a gym. The coaches are brilliant, they keep you focused on your goals and are always there to give advice. Plus the members are all great, everyone is there for the same reason and the atmosphere is so supportive. The changes in my health and fitness are amazing, but I'm most surprised with the change to my attitude - now I wouldn't miss going to the gym three times a week! If you're looking to find a gym that you will genuinely enjoy and will keep you motivated give SSA a go!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been here for 2 and a half years now which is the longest I’ve stuck at any gym. I regularly attend 4 days a week which is due to the motivation of the coaches and the enjoyment of the session thanks Suffolk Strength for helping me continually achieve my goals! If anyone’s looking to make a change then don’t hesitate it’ll be the best thing you do.

Fantastic experience: Best experience gym wise so far

Fantastic experience: A brilliant place to train, learn, meet people and have a great time. If you're not fond of commercial gyms which are full of the usual suspects then try SSA; you will achieve your goals and not just say you will. Shake things up.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place to train, great people and an awesome coach.

Fantastic experience: Supportive, fun place to train
