The Personal Training Hub

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but great things to say about The Personal Training Hub and the whole Stronghold community. I've been having PT with Joel for around 5 months now and my experience has been amazing. From him developing bespoke and interesting session plans, pushing me to develop faster and lift heavier than I've ever got from prior gym experiences as well as taking the time to share his knowledge on the theory for how to build strength quickly and safely. The whole team has been super friendly and encouraging. I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Tom is an excellent PT who gently pushes me to do things that I don’t think I can do and then I surprise myself at how fit and strong I have become. I highly recommend his services, sessions with him are always enjoyable.

Fantastic experience: Having been a PT for over ten years, and settling down in the Cheltenham area, it’s great to be able to train clients in a facility that is well looked after, fully equipped for both functional and isolation work, and have gym owners that care about their trainers. Dave and Tom do a great job at maintaining this facility and would highly recommend it to any trainer looking to expand their business! 5 stars all round!

Fantastic experience: The Personal Training Hub is a fantastic space for private personal training without the busyness of a commercial gym. The studio has all the essential equipment required to deliver exceptional personal training and thrives upon its community led structure!

Fantastic experience: I have recently completed a 8 week course that has been put on by the stronghold for Smiths RFC The 8 week block was very well planned out and fully supportive with some excellent coaches. Would 100% recommend joining up and giving it a go.

Fantastic experience: I have only positive things to say about the Stronghold Personal Training Hub facility. As soon as you arrive there is a friendly atmosphere and a community spirit. The facility has lots of new, top of the range equipment and a range that allows you to do all training types. I have completed some personal training sessions with Tom, and have seen lots of benefits. He is incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of strength and conditioning and has helped me to enhance my performance in sport whilst also helping me to protect myself from injury. Tom has a great combination of patience but also pushes you to really progress. I have also participated in regular group strength and conditioning sessions with my rugby club. These have been led by Kylie, who again is incredibly knowledgeable and has helped all, no matter what experience level, to improve our lifting techniques. The sessions are clearly programmed to allow us to progress and are specific to our sport. While all the sessions have a clear purpose, they are always fun and have definitely developed the team spirit within the squad. Overall I have always been incredibly happy with my experience at the Stronghold and will continue to use it for all my training.

Fantastic experience: Great coaching with a S&C block before the rugby season. Made good progress and feel the benefits in training. Friendly and knowledgable trainers and top facility. Looking fwd to the next block next month!

Fantastic experience: 1st I would like to Thank Stronghold team for providing a Master Class for us 'Oldies'.The venue and equipment is always clean and tidy.Initially each client is assessed on their capability and fitness level.The sessions focus on strengthening and conditioning using a range of exercises Each exercise is demonstrated and explained.The coaches always enquire about each clients health and any change in our aches and pains.. we look forward to each session and my general health has benefited from going to The Stronghold

Fantastic experience: The Masters Class is a fun way of people of a certain age getting together to get fit. Small classes mean a close interaction with the trainer, who is able to ensure the exercise is done correctly so you not only benefit from it but the risk of injury is minimised. During my short time with these classes following knee surgery I have regained my strength and mobility, particularly in my joints. I would highly recommend these classes to anyone who is intimidated by, or fearful of normal classes due to the level of intensity because of age related weaknesses or injury.

Fantastic experience: I've been training here for a while now, and it's a really great facility. Everyone is made welcome regardless of fitness level or body type, and the focus is doing what you can do, rather than what you can't, & making progress on your own personal goals. There is so much variety, in equipment and training that I'm in no danger of getting bored or demotivated.

Fantastic experience: I came to The Personal Training Hub after having been in intensive care for over a month and for over three weeks of that time being in induced coma. During my time in hospital, I had suffered damage to one of my shoulders when being moved prone and when discharged I could barely walk and had multiple issues with movement and stamina. When I first met with Dave, he described to me how we would go about getting me my mobility and flexibility back and then move onto strengthening on top of that. Over the past months I have seen an amazing change in what I can achieve and continual improvements in my recovery time whilst also feeling like I have more energy and able to do more day to day. Dave has kept the sessions challenging and enjoyable helping me to understand the importance of moving properly and not relying on the wrong muscle sets whilst also helping me understand what I can do in days not at the gym to just keep building my flexibility day on day. Would happily recommend The Personal Training Hub to anyone looking for a personal service as it is really good quality, personalised and at a good price.

Fantastic experience: Consistently excellent service from Dave. Incredibly knowledgeable so able to progress our sessions and keep thing interesting even after such a long time. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Dave and the team at the Stronghold gym for a few months now and I cannot recommend the gym enough. I joined initially with an injury I was seeking to repair and a desire for some general PT. The quality of the training has been exceptional. My injury has been resolved through a meticulous training plan, that hasn’t compromised other goals that were set. Feeling the results already. PT sessions are enjoyable, because they are done right, and I have a high level of confidence in the training I am receiving. It’s worth the pain! Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: The Stronghold is an awesome facility, loved by me and all my clients. The equipment is top quality and well maintained. The unit is always clean and comes with a positive energy and great atmosphere every day of the week. The owners set the tone, it’s a PT gym run by PT’s….honestly, a wonderful place to work with clients and fantastic place to train - absolutely love it and feel blessed to be part of the team!

Fantastic experience: Great facility, even better coaching. Highest standards whether beginner or Advanced. Also a wonderful community feel about the place!
