The Flash Point

Fantastic experience: Since starting at Flash I have gained confidence in doing exercise in group situations, the coaches are knowledgeable and have a great understanding of not just mine but the whole groups capabilities. They also run community events such as hikes and run clubs, creating friendships and allowing confidence to be built through different types of exercises. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend this place enough! Very inclusive. Fantastic encouraging atmosphere. I've never been fitter than I am now thanks to Flash. Highly recommend the regular Flash hikes! Beautiful nature walks, different location every time. We have attended with our toddler in a carrier backpack and we've only ever been welcomed and encouraged to do this. It's given us the courage as a young family to be more adventurous together in the safe space that Sam creates for us. A big thank you to the big man Sam!

Fantastic experience: Flash Fitness… what a place! After not working out for a while, I was looking for something to motivate me and help me fall back in love with fitness, and I found exactly that at Flash Fitness. From the moment I joined, the atmosphere has been energetic and welcoming. Samuel has been incredibly attentive and understanding during our PT sessions, pushing me just enough to try new things and build my confidence again. I’m enjoying every session! I’ll be joining the group classes soon and can’t wait to be part of such a positive, supportive community that makes exercise feel fun and empowering. To all the PTs who make this space what it is… you should be so proud. I’m really looking forward to continuing my journey at Flash Fitness!

Fantastic experience: Flash Fitness was exactly what I needed after coasting along with my fitness for a while. I’m finally feeling stronger, fitter, and genuinely enjoying every session. Flash really puts your average gym in the shade! Sam is fantastic at what he does — he instinctively knows what you need without you even having to say anything. That kind of insight is rare and seriously motivating. The outdoor setup gives you a great energy boost too, especially during the summer — a refreshing change from a stuffy, air-conditioned gym. Sam’s team of coaches are also excellent — they pay close attention to form and technique, offering advice and encouragement throughout. The whole place has a friendly, welcoming vibe that makes you want to show up consistently and always give your best. Thanks, Sam — you should be very proud of Flash Fitness and everything it stands for! And a big thanks to your team too.

Fantastic experience: Working out has gone from a chore to something I genuinely love thanks to Sam and the team at Flash. Sam is an incredibly knowledgeable and supportive coach and knows how to get results. He somehow remembers everybody’s strength's and weaknesses, and pushes you further than you think you can go. Thanks team Flash Definitely don’t hesitate if you’re thinking of joining

Fantastic experience: I had very little gym experience before joining the Flash Point but after seeing it on instagram I thought I’d try it. The classes are perfect for people from all fitness levels and everyone was so welcoming. After the first two classes I cancelled my previous gym membership Sam’s attention to detail and his coaching style makes it easy to learn proper technique and help your overall progress. I’ve noticed such a difference in myself in just a few months. There is a great variety of classes with other amazing coaches. The group sessions are really well organised & the social side makes them fun and easier get through. So glad I joined and couldn’t recommend enough!! ☺️

Fantastic experience: Sam and his team offer really high quality sessions to suit all fitness abilities, he has created a very welcoming community for new and established members and for clients that’s drop in occasionally. Equipment is always in great condition and the option to pay as you go is great. Ditch the gym membership and come to Flash you’ll get fitter than you ever have and might even sign up to a Hyrox event!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending flash classes for around 2/3 months now and I can’t express how much I am enjoying them. The structured workouts and sheer energy of the sessions have made fitness both rewarding and fun. As I continue to challenge myself and see progress, I feel stronger and fitter by the day! It’s amazing how these sessions can help mental wellbeing. Sam’s attention to detail ensures that each movement is performed correctly which minimises risk of injury. His guidance has really helped improve my form and technique. Well done Sam, your dedication and expertise makes all the difference. I’ve got the love back for training so thankyou. LizzyT

Fantastic experience: I have been using the flash point for classes for over three years now. It was daunting getting back into exercise after children, but Sam and the team were all supportive and motivating. The environment Sam has created puts you at ease. Each class is different from the last and Sam's attention to detail in every class makes you push your self each time. It really is great place to work out.

Fantastic experience: Just started at flash fitness and Sam is great and super accommodating for all would highly recommend to anyone !

Fantastic experience: Flash fitness is a remarkable community that I discovered in 2024 and it’s made workouts something I look forward to especially working out in an environment that’s not only invigorating but also amazing for your mental health, being in the fresh air and dedicating time to yourself with an uplifting coach and team around you leaves you feeling incredible. Sam is always on hand to guide everyone personally and he not only inspires me but he pushes me further than I ever think I am capable of all whilst checking in to make sure my form is correct to prevent injuries - I can’t recommend Flash fitness enough.

Fantastic experience: Excellent training, Sam is great always helping and pushing me to reach my goals. There is nowhere else I would want to train. 6 stars.

Fantastic experience: Flash Fitness isn’t just a gym—it’s a community built on support, hard work and endless laughter. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a vibe that’s all about lifting each other up, encouraging each other (regardless of fitness levels) and leaving any sense of judgment at the door. It’s the perfect mix of hard work and light-hearted banter that makes working out feel less like a chore and more like a fun activity to look forward to! The workouts are absolutely intense! Sam, has the skill for pushing you to your limits while keeping the energy high and the atmosphere fun. Trust me, you won’t slack off—there’s always a coach behind you, pushing you on—but the laughs and camaraderie make the hard work worthwhile. Erika is just as fantastic. She’s so encouraging, always making you feel accomplished—even on your off days. Whether you’re flying through a session or struggling, she’ll have you leaving the gym with a smile! Meanwhile, Mollie’s strength classes are sneaky in the best way. They don’t feel too bad at the time, but the next day? You’ll know you’ve worked every single muscle! Her sessions are perfectly designed to build your strength and leave you feeling proud of what you’ve achieved. What sets Flash Fitness apart is its sense of community. You don’t just show up, work out, and leave—you bond. The monthly hikes organised by Sam are brilliant for team-building and a chance to connect with everyone outside the gym. It’s all about building relationships, not just muscles! Through Flash, I’ve found not only fitness but also lifelong friends. It’s a place where everyone has your back, and the mix of encouragement, banter, and shared goals makes it a space you genuinely look forward to coming to. If you’re looking for a gym where laughter is as important as lunges, Flash Fitness is the one for you!

Fantastic experience: Brilliant facility and coaching for all levels and abilities. The classes are top tier combinations of well instructed exercises that serve your needs whether you're a newcomer to exercise or a competing athlete looking to diversify your training. The community and team spirit at flash is lovely and everyone is always welcomed. The sense of belonging and cheering for each other is something you can't experience in an ordinary gym. I would warmly recommend Flash to anyone who's looking for an exercise facility in Solihull area.

Fantastic experience: I would 100% recommend the Flash Point! It’s a great place to train and I love being apart of the group training classes. The coaches are really motivating and always push you to meet your training goals. Thanks Flash!

Fantastic experience: The Flash Point Fitness team, led by Sam, is truly outstanding! Sam's passion and dedication shine through in every session. He orchestrates training with precision, keeps a close eye on progress, and always pushes and challenges you to achieve your best. His genuine care for the community he's building is inspiring, and it’s clear he’s making a positive impact both in fitness and beyond. My own health and fitness journey has been transformed thanks to his accountability and support. I highly recommend Sam and the Flash Point Fitness team to anyone looking to take their fitness to the next level!

Fantastic experience: I have known Sam for many years and have been going to the Flash Point since it was launched back in Sept 2020. It’s an amazing place to train with so many positive people. The tuition and guidance is spot on and Sam has created a fantastic community. Cannot recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: Would really recommend these classes to anyone! They are so motivating and Sam is such a good coach - they really push you to work harder and build your strength. I have noticed such a difference since I started and excited to see where it takes me in the next year. Thank you Sam!!

The sessions incorporate different styles and are focused on areas I want to develop. The energy here is unmatched, and Can’t recommend it enough!

Fantastic experience: If you’re on the hunt for a personal trainer who’s equal parts drill sergeant, and cheerleader, look no further than Sam and his fantastic training space. I’ve had the pleasure (and the pain!) of training with Sam over the years, and I’m convinced he’s part human, part superhero. Our journey began back in the days of Fitness First, but when lockdown hit, I knew I had two choices — let the pounds pile on or take action. Spoiler alert: I refused to come out of lockdown heavier than I went in. So, when Sam opened up his outdoor training space The Flash Point, I was first in line (well, maybe second, but I’m claiming first). And what a journey it’s been. From Tough Mudders to 5Ks, from triumphs to "why-is-this-weight-not-budging" tears, Sam has been there every step (and sprint) of the way. He’s the discipline I never knew I needed but now can’t live without. While some people spend their money on cigarettes and alcohol, I’ve chosen to invest in something that makes me stronger, fitter, and, dare I say it, happier. (Okay, maybe not *in the moment* when I’m gasping for air, but definitely in the long run.) We’ve shared laughs, groans, and the occasional "are-you-serious-right-now" glare, but it’s all part of the process. He’s not just a trainer; he’s a partner in every win and a voice of reason during every setback. His ability to push you to your limits while keeping you motivated is nothing short of magical. Beyond the burpees and battle ropes, what’s truly inspiring is Sam’s journey as a business owner. He’s built this from scratch with pure grit, passion, and unwavering discipline. Watching his growth has been as rewarding as seeing my own progress. I’m proud to have had a front-row seat to his success story and feel privileged to be a part of this ever-evolving adventure. If you’re looking for someone to push you, believe in you, and keep you accountable (all while cracking a few jokes along the way), then Sam’s your guy. You’ll sweat, you’ll struggle, but you’ll also succeed. And honestly, isn’t that what it’s all about?

Fantastic experience: I have attended Flash Point for many years, and love the variety of classes, great coaches and the community of people that attend. Flash point is welcoming and coaches are attentive to all abilities. Would 100% recommend!

I joined Sam with no experience of weight training and hated any sort of cardio. The expertise and coaching of the Flash team has given me the confidence to push myself and I love the vibe of the classes - friendly and experienced coaches and well put together sessions. If you join a session I guarantee you will come back for more!
