Fantastic experience:
Fantastic experience: Great gym has all the equipment you need, friendly staff , there is a cafe with healthy options prepped meals and other choices
Thanks for the kind words Chris! Glad to hear you're enjoying it!
Fantastic experience: Amazing friendly gym, very welcoming and caters for all ages and levels of fitness. Definitely recommend a private PT session.
Fantastic experience: I was recommended this gym by a friend, after having a bad experience with another gym. I have Social Anxiety and was really worried about even going to a gym after the experience I had with the last one, never mind just dealing with people in general. I reached out to this gym and the Owner (stephen) invited me down for a chat, and even helped me go through my workout plan on a number of different days just so I knew what I was doing to try and help me feel as comfortable as possible. All of the staff are super friendly and helpful. Its not a very busy gym (at the times I go at least, AM) unless there is classes on so of course the quieter atmosphere really helps with my anxiety. Ive only been training here for 2 weeks and I am loving it, im actually excited to go on my gym days! Thank you guys for making this a comfortable and safe space. Your gym and yourselves are amazing!
Thank you so much for the kind words Natasha! So glad you feel safe and comfortable, can’t wait to see you smash it over the next few weeks/ months

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym with something for everyone the gym has the traditional weight's area and also a functional hall for daily Work Out Of The Days and other classes.

All the staff are friendly and approachable and most importantly always up for a laugh :) Excellent value for money too!!

Fantastic experience: Great staff, great facilities and very friendly atmosphere, well worth a visit.
Fantastic experience: Love this gym, friendly staff, great equipment and made great friends from it
Fantastic experience: I wanted to join a gym that would support and encourage me, while teaching me the fundamentals of training. I was nervous and unsure about joining but Ian, Stephen and the team (as well as the other members) have made me feel right at home. It’s a safe, professional place to train and I would recommend it to anyone.
Thank you so much Kaye and we are glad you’re enjoying it! Welcome to the team
Fantastic experience: Clean gym and plenty to of space to train with the 2m rules.
Fantastic experience: Well equipped gym ran by a professional, friendly team. Particularly impressed with the measures that have been put in place to ensure their members are safe during the pandemic. Thank you. You're always made to feel welcome and the general atmosphere is always positive.
Fantastic experience: Great Gym. Friendly and welcoming to new members. Also, very COVID safe which is reassuring.
Fantastic experience: A fantastic gym facility with owners who put absolutely everything into what they do. I found everyone at the gym really friendly and supportive. I would have no hesitation to recommend these guys :)
Fantastic experience: Excellent friendly gym,great range of equipment & classes. The lads have gone the extra mile to make sure there clients can train safely through this pandemic
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym. The classes are challenging and are very well put together. I love how the workouts are designed to last the full lengh of time which provides the best possible value for money. I don't feel i am being judged or stared at here which is such a deal breaker. My overall mental health has massively improved since coming here (almost 1 year now). Specifically my motivation and self worth is greater and my social anxieties have reduced. The membership is so affordable. Its not one of them gyms where you sign up and then dread going. Covid measures are fully practiced here so i feel safe attending above all else.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant Gym, excellent facilities. Had really good experiences both from PT sessions, open gym and from WOD classes. 3 brilliant PT professionals providing expert knowledge and a great atmosphere. Good for relative novices like me,and those with years of experience. Everyone at the gym whilst I’ve been there has taken COVID extremely seriously both pre and and post lock down. Disinfectant is readily available, lots of contact free hand sanitisers, socially distanced grid areas to exercises in in classes. With disinfecting equipment pre and post work out an essential part of each class. Everyone in each of the sessions that have been at has taken this very seriously. There is also good ventilation at each session.
Fantastic experience: Not being young or fit I was a little apprehensive when starting this gym but was welcomed and the classes are great . . .Ian Stephen and Craig offered support and virtual classes during lockdown and due to a bit of an obsession to have things just right the social distance arrangements in the gym are fantastic you have your own square which are accurately measured and equally spaced following the guidelines. They do everything possible to ensure the safety and well being of their members. Keep it up we appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: I joined this facility in January, great set of coaches, they always greet you with a smile and always a good laugh. Given the current pandemic i think they have done fantastic, i personally prefer the boxes, there is hand sanitizer, cleaning products for equipment and a one way system. Great effort in my opinion and i have no complaints, keep up the good work lads!!!!!!
Fantastic experience: Where would I be without this gym. The safety measures put in place during these uncertain times really shows how much they care amount their clients safety. No over crowding of classes with an online booking service, plenty of cleaning supplies available to clean down equipment (which everyone does and is expected), plenty of hand sanitiser stations and social distancing with each class member having their own square and equipment. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Knowing Ian, Stephen and the other people who use the gym, I can safely say that they take social distance measures very seriously. Their knowledge, skills and attention to detail is 100%. Seeing someone trying to sabotage their hard work, endeavours is quite frankly disgraceful and strange. I know how hard they worked to get it back on track after several months away due to the virus. Ignore the 1* review, it's false.
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms i have been in. All the equipment u need and more. Because its family run business u feel more comfortable when u there. Feels like home when u walk in.
Fantastic experience: Can't recommend enough, the classes really are brilliant as are the coaches and members! They have gone above and beyond in their approach to post-covid safety too.
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym and set up, everyone is frendly and will help you if you need it. Sins i started they have puched me to achive what i though was never going to happe. Amazing work, well done love training there
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym - a brilliant facility with great coaches! Would recommend
Fantastic experience: Great training facility with even better staff! The cleaning standards are high, the availability of equipment is excellent and the staff go above and beyond to ensure every member gets what they need out of the gym. It was a pleasure to train here.
Fantastic experience: Top gym. Top coaches. Top members. Doing their best to make things safe for people not only in ensuring people's technique is correct but also COVID wise. Keep up the stirling work. P.s. I don't like cats (just felt the need to share that)
Fantastic experience: Passionate and knowledgable owners. More gyms need the staff and qualifications this place has. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: An amazing gym which is highly professional and well organised. I love the fact that if you miss a few weeks or you are not performing your best they are not judgy- just really supportive. Love the warm, welcoming and nurturing environment. Ideal for everyone. Very safe post lockdown with very high standards throughout.
Fantastic experience: Incredible gym. A welcoming environment with coaches who are invested in their clients. I'm so impressed at the measures out in place in relation to managing risks around COVID-19 and feel safe. Couldn't reccomend this place more.
Fantastic experience: Best gym I have ever been to! Extremely knowledge coaches who cannot do enough for you and great facilities for all abilities.
Fantastic experience: Ian, Stephen and Craig have committed themselves to maintaining a safe and distant environment for all the clients. Absolutely fantastic gym
Fantastic experience: fantastic gym lots of varied classes and a very well equipped gym
Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever been to everyone is treat like one big family
Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend this place enough. From day 1 was made to feel welcome by all three of the lads and all the members. Incredible value for money with an outstanding variety of equipment. Even during the weird times we are now living in there hasn't been a foot put wrong. Exceptionally professional approach to all social distance rules needed. Couldn't feel safer and still able to get my training done, along with jumping in on the occasional metcon.
Fantastic experience: Love this place!! Such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and I have never been as fit and strong as I am at the minute. The workouts are always fun yet challenging and I look forward to every single class.
Fantastic experience: If you don’t want to get fitter and stronger and more knowledgeable, in a fully inclusive community where you’ll make friends with some pretty amazing people who’ll motivate you and cheer for you to be the best version of yourself, then this isn’t the gym for you.
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of 2BFit for over 18 months now and my fitness, strength and confidence has grown enormously. This has been supported by encouragement from the owners and members alike. Everyone is friendly and welcoming; it is a great community to be a part of. The guys have been hard-working and flexible during these challenging times and successfully adapted the gym to be functional and safe by enforcing hygiene systems, organising equipment and increasing the frequency of classes which has enabled members to return, working out efficiently and safely.
Fantastic experience: Love this gym there's something for everyone no matter what you're goals are . I feel they have done a great job with the cleaning of equipment and social distancing since the re opening after lockdown. I've been a member of this gym for a year now and hopefully many more years to come
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of this gym for around a year now and I can't fault it. The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgable. The gym has recently invested in new equipment and are implementing all safety measures with regards covid including social distancing and cleaning stations throughout.
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym facilities provided by a team of people who who live and breathe what they do.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing gym! I honestly couldn't fault it. First class equipment and a friendly atmosphere. They have been great since reopening after lockdown with clear measurements put in place to protect all members.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym for all fitness levels and professional doing there best for covid 19 protection recommend to anybody great instructors for all your needs
Fantastic experience: Lots on offer at 2B-FIT. Regardless of your goals, the guys have the facilities, equipment, diversity of services, experience and quality of coaching to meet your training needs. All at a great price The guys have gone above and beyond to ensure the gym is COVID safe. Designated boxes are set out for each individual in classes, with more than the 2m requirement separating members. All equipment is cleaned down thoroughly after use and members are fully on board supporting this. We help the guys to look after our gym and our environment. Can’t recommend 2B-FIT highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic Gym, the measures the guys have implemented to keep everyone safe during this Covid 19 are perfect, the brilliant thing about this gym is that it has a lovely community spirit. Everyone who attends are super nice and respectful of the equipment, and this stretches to sanitising hands when entering and leaving the gym, and also wiping down of the equipment after use. I've been to many gyms in my life and have always worried about feeling intimidated by others who attend, but it's just not the case here, everyone is extremely friendly and always happy to help. Ian, Craig and Stephen are extremely friendly and welcoming and I can 100% hand on heart say that this gym is by far my favourite.
Fantastic experience: Post lockdown, looking for a gym which is welcoming, full of character and has a community feel to it, whilst also upholding high standards regarding social distancing and keeping all equipment sanitised, seemed like a lost cause. Until I was recommenced to try out 2B-Fit gym!! The communication from the coaches was outstanding, they are all really friendly, welcoming and full of knowledge. They all go above and beyond to make you feel at ease from the moment you step through the door. Best of all, everyone wants to help and support you no matter your goals!! The gym layout is well thought out, all machines are spread across the gym safely. Throughout the gym are spray bottles and wipes to clean down all equipment once you have finished using it. Signs are visible for the importance of social distancing and taking ownership of cleaning down machines after use. It’s refreshing to be able to get on with a workout knowing the equipment is clean and taking it upon yourself to keep those standards high. Everyone I have witnessed is very proactive in keeping high standards of cleanliness throughout their sessions. The facilities cater to all needs, from weight training, cardio and CrossFit no matter your ability level. All are welcome and the more you come the more you feel like you are part of something special. This isn’t a boring generic gym. It’s got everything you need and more! Become a part of a likeminded community of people in a safe welcoming environment!!
Fantastic experience: Great facilities and classes with even better staff! Post lockdown the gym has went above and beyond what is required to comply with social distancing! An incredibly professional effort all round. 11 out of 10!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! The staff are friendly and dedicated to helping you wherever possible. The classes are fantastic for people of all fitness levels and the gym is extremely well equipped. Other members are welcoming and considerate. Post-lockdown, they have gone above and beyond to ensure social distancing and sanitising is maintained in class settings and in the open gym. Would recommend it to anyone!
Negative experience: No social distancing. Very dangerous
Hi Carol. Sorry that you have found the measures we have put in place inadequate. We feel we have done our absolute best to ensure social distancing is withheld by our members. We understand that it’s impossible to police things 100% of the time and try and put the responsibility into our members hands to abide by government guidelines We would have appreciated your feedback either in person, over the phone or via email so we can understand how you feel we could do a better job instead of leaving a 1-star review with minimal information. If you’d like to talk regarding this, we’ve be happy to speak. Regards Ian

A brilliant atmosphere - going to the gym isn't a chore its a part of life now and a very enjoyable part of my day. I would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been training here for over 3 and a half years now and love it. Stephen and Ian are so supportive and welcoming and always available to give advice.

Fantastic experience: Best gym experience ever. The atmosphere and all round general feel is brilliant. The coaches are the best around by far and will always go above and beyond to help you in any way they can, may this be with training or nutrition. The equipment is fantastic, is very varied and is always having new pieces added. I've been with this facility for over 4years now and not only has it made training fun again but it has had such a positive impact on my physical and mental health. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: One of the most diverse Fitness facilities in County Durham that caters for any fitness type or ability. Having trained in many gyms in the past, this is without a doubt the best, it offers a very much back to basic, old school feel that the industry has been crying out for but brought up to date with modern and high quality equipment. A great range of classes and a welcoming community. An absolute must for those that are into training
