Honestly this Gym is great. Your first impression will be that it's a gym full of meat heads who will judge you for not being able to lift like them, but the truth is the opposite. Every single person I have interacted with there has been so nice, they are encouraging and so welcoming. People of all shapes and sizes go to this gym and you will not be judged, just welcomed.

If you require the assistance of a personal trainer I would give Luke a widebirth. Not only did I have to continually text and call him, speak to the owner of the gym, even after he had promised to call me again, when he did he was more interested in selling me parts of a plan I didn't require or could afford. Obviously everyone needs to make a living, but I found him dismissive, uninterested and a nightmare to contact. I've been very unwell for 6 years now and have gained weight and lost my endurance and stability, so reaching out took courage, and this was not the kind of experience I needed
