Ask yourself if any of these statements sound like you …
● Are you experiencing weight gain as you get older and want to get it under control before it’s too late?
● Do you feel old and tired but wish you could feel younger and more energetic?
● Do you find that you feel down more days than not?
● Do you have every intention of exercising and eating well but find the day gets away from you and you run out of time?
● Are you strict with yourself Monday to Friday and then 'undo' all your effort over the weekend?
● Are you lacking confidence in the gym, not sure what you should be doing or have been exercising hard but not getting the results you want?
● You don't want complexity, you want simplicity. A schedule that fits in with your life
● You understand that HOPE is not a plan, you want to KNOW 100% that your diet and workouts are working.

Gym etiquette
We want everyone's time in our gym to be as comfortable as possible, so we ask all visitors to remember the below when using the facilities.
- Please help us keep the gym clean by wiping down equipment after use
- Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for the activity you're doing
- Lifting barefoot or in socks is permitted on lifting platforms only
- Make use of our lockers for bags
- Our gym's aren't always manned, so if you require assistance or support when there are no team members on the gym floor, please visit our friendly reception team
- In case of emergency, push the assistance alarm
- During busy times, please be mindful of the length of time you spend on each piece of equipment to allow other gym users to complete their workout
Junior Gym etiquette
- A gym induction must be completed before using the gym

- You must follow all exercise programme advice given by our Fitness team

Junior fitness
We believe a physically active child is much more likely to become a physically active adult, so welcome junior gym users to our facility.
Juniors are welcome in our gym at anytime, as long as they are supervised by a parent/guardian, that is 18+, at all times
All junior gym users must complete a group introduction before using the gym. An induction will need to be completed at each centre to be used. These sessions last 30 minutes and can be booked with a member of our team when joining. Juniors must be accompanied by a parent/guardian during these sessions.
