Fantastic gym and results. Training in small groups of 2, 3 or 4 with great attention to detail and getting the results you want and need. Plus the trainers are great!

It's the best gym in Plymouth hands down, whether you're starting out or competing, old or young, big or small.

It costs more to attend PPG than your average gym, but in exchange you get personalised training as only very small groups are allowed to train at any one time. The equipment is well maintained and the trainers are knowledgeable and motivating. I have a number of health problems which make training difficult, and the trainers have been excellent at taking these into account and working me hard without pushing me too far.

The coaches are second to none! If you want to start taking you fitness seriously or improve in a specific sport this place is your best option, the atmosphere is friendly but focused because the gym is always full of driven people! Excellent facilities, well maintained and easy to park outside. Cannot recommend it enough; Just be prepared to never be satisfied with any other gym afterwards!
