  • I survived 4 years. Love it 🙂 Edit: I am still with PPT and it's 9 years of 2 or 3 times a week - in small group sessions with different morning trainers. A great social community as well. And yes, loving it still.

    Lynn Tulip Avatar Lynn Tulip

    I love PPT, I've been a member for just over a year and it's everything I wanted and more!

    David Gorringe Avatar David Gorringe

    The best gym in the area! Such a great vibe and friendly, highly qualified team. Great fun sessions and a real community spirit with every session. I feel so good since I started with PPT and have been able to get back to a great level of fitness. Highly recommend 🤩

  • This is a gym I am going back to regularly and is going to be an ongoing part of my life and my wife's. I am paying more than I had at other gyms, where I got little ongoing supervision or updates on my "program", if I was lucky enough to get one at all. I work out to a level that is safe for me and is effective. With less supervision I have a tendency to not do the right thing or do to much. The instructors are all very good and encouraging. For dieting they encourage carb/ fat/ protein tracking on a phone app, which is easy. They then help with weight loss to see what kind of diet works best for you. Generally people are a bit older or much older than at other gyms. The atmosphere is fun and focused. Not everyone is fit (I am not). They have been very helpful in working around what exercises are safe for me as someone with various injuries: a scoliosis (causing a prolapsed disc), twice torn right calf muscle, plus excessive joint mobility / trapped nerve. Thumbs up 5 stars.

    James Kitching Avatar James Kitching

    Been going to PPT for about 18 months now and absolutely love it. The PPT team are all just awesome people, and make the place what it is. It's an environment that is pressure-free and so enjoyable. The pre-booked group sessions (rather than just going to a gym when you feel like it) was the motivation I needed to actually keep going week after week. And having a PT there to lead the session, keeping you interested, helping you with technique, is worth every penny. Give it a go, you won't regret it.

    Ben Wood Avatar Ben Wood

    Have been a member at PPT for nearly 5 years and LOVE IT. Hated exercise before and gyms full of posers but PPT is completely different and has a real community feel to it. The trainers are excellent and the support you get is fantastic in both fitness and nutrition. Anyone thinking of taking the leap into exercise should definitely give PPT a go.

  • What a friendly, supportive and welcoming atmosphere there is at PPT. I joined only 3 weeks ago and now feel truly part of this community. I have been doing their strength classes which are well planned, motivating and delivered by expert trainers. PPT trainer Matt has ensured my execution of each exercise is correct and within my ability. Thank you everyone,

    paula gillam Avatar paula gillam

    I"ve been coming here about 3 weeks. Started off with strength classes which Im new too and are very challenging for me. The coaches are all positive and supportive. It has a friendly and welcoming vibe and Im enjoying my sessions. The app is easy to navigate. I would highly recommend.

    britt Jones Avatar britt Jones

    Amazing community and more than just a gym. After struggling to get back into regular exercise after having kids I decided to try PPT and absolutely love it. The classes have so much variety and the trainers take so much care to adapt exercises for each individual. Keeping you moving is a priority and after getting a back injury they helped coach me back to fitness. The support of the community and the trainers means I've been able to make a lifestyle change as opposed to training to 'lose weight' and I love it (even the push ups).

    Lorna Laville Avatar Lorna Laville
  • Such a friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming environment to train. I have always been really put off by Gyms feeling that they are quite judgemental but that is not the case here at all. For the first time I really look forward to my sessions and feel that everyone around really wants you to succeed in your goals. It took me years to knock on their door..... I only wish I had done it sooner. If you are considering them, pop in and say hi. It will be the best decision you make. Cannot recommend them highly enough!!

    Victoria Clare Avatar Victoria Clare

    Maxine and all the trainers are brilliant! I’ve just hit my fourth anniversary and still loving it. The trainers vary the sessions enough to keep them interesting with just the right level of focus on interim goals. Being able to book in via the app means I can fit sessions around any last minute work chaos which is huge plus for me.

    Megan Amber Avatar Megan Amber

    I joined PPT a few months ago - I love my sessions there and feel so much stronger as a result. The sessions go very quickly and there is a great all inclusive ethos which is really important. No matter what level you are at with your fitness you always feel included. If I have ever had an injury the trainers always have an alternative and have great knowledge if what might help. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and always look forward to going

    Helen Sutherland Avatar Helen Sutherland
  • Great sense of community. It isn't like going to an ordinary gym. The sessions are great and tailored to bring everyone on regardless of their current fitness. Everyone is rooting for you and encouraging. There is nutrition advise and drop in sessions to monitor your progress too if you want it. There is a great social side too. You can get as involved as you want. The trainers are brilliant. There is such a wide range of sessions so you are bound to find your own favourites and with early morning, evening and weekend sessions as well as daytime sessions, you won't have an excuse not to get your sessions in.

    Martine Ratcliffe Avatar Martine Ratcliffe

    PPT isn't just a gym it's a fantastic community of amazing people. The classes are varied and times to suit all. The trainers are very good at adapting anything to accommodate everyone. The social side is brilliant too with lots of different events happening. I have been a member for 2 and a half years and have made many great new friends! Plus I have found a passion for training and I'm fitter than I have ever been! Give it a shot...you won't regret it!

    If you're looking for a gym that delivers results without the intimidating vibes, PPT is the place for you. This strength and cardio-focused gym strikes the perfect balance between hardcore training and a welcoming environment. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is supportive and inclusive. The staff is approachable and knowledgeable, always ready to guide you through equipment, correct your form, or help tailor your workout plan. There's a real sense of community here, with members who cheer each other on instead of competing. The equipment is top-notch, with everything you need for strength training: free weights, squat racks, benches, and machines. plus a solid variety of cardio options like rowing machines and bikes. What really sets PPT apart is their "no ego" culture. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting your fitness journey, you’ll feel comfortable and encouraged. There’s no judgment, no showing off, just people putting in the work to be their best selves. Classes are another highlight. The trainers bring energy, expertise, and motivation to every session, ensuring workouts are effective and fun. Whether it's high-intensity interval training, functional fitness, or circuit-based programs, there's something for everyone.

  • I've been a member at PPT since September 2019. It is the first ever gym / training studio that I have joined and its now well and truly part of my life. The people make this place first class, from the fantastic coaches and the rest of the community. There is not a more welcoming environment that I've experienced. The programmed training itself is phenomenal, from large group strength, cardio, boxing and hybrid classes, to both semi private and 1-2-1 PT sessions, there is something for everybody. With additional coaching sessions supporting members with their nutrition, PPT goes the extra mile and some. For me, having never joined a gym before, I lost 4st in just 10 months, so can guarantee you will get results in a non intimidating environment with the best support possible. No egos just results sums it all up!

    Alex Holland Avatar Alex Holland

    I have never stuck with a gym before. The trainers are all responsive and fun. They really seem to care, whatever your level of fitness. The other clients are friendly and welcoming. The classes are varied both in content and timing and you get an email reminding you that you have booked in which is the nudge I sometimes need! There's also sensible nutritional advice. It's a fantastic gym!

    Mandy Claiden Avatar Mandy Claiden

    I've been with PPT around 6 months - enjoying it so much that I actually want to exercise because it's fun, not because I must, and it's doing me a heap of good physically and mentally! I do strength, boxing and group circuit sessions here. As someone who's shy and dislikes intimidating, crowded gyms and clicky crossfit environments, I have spent considerable time trying to find the right place with decent facilities to establish a regular workout routine with the right support. All the staff at PPT want to understand your goals, and through their knowledge and training they help you push yourself but only to what you're comfortable with. The coaches and the clients I share sessions with are super friendly and down to earth. I've never felt like a number, or pressurised, or judged. They've got the recipe just right here, with small group classes, and with their social and community efforts, and I'm getting fit, so big yays all round!

    The most motivated I’ve ever been at a gym, the trainers get to know you and they make the sessions fun. I’ve had great results, more than I thought possible. There’s a lot of variety and choice and booking sessions is super easy. There is also lots of nutritional input if you want it. Everyone is friendly and welcoming which makes it a real community. I’m so pleased to be part of it.

    Clare Parkinson Avatar Clare Parkinson

    I have been a member of PPT since October 2019 and I would thoroughly recommend them. I attend a combination of strength and cardio classes and I am never bored. You are constantly improving whilst having fun as the trainers and other members keep you inspired and motivated, full of encouragement. the structured programs are brilliant. #hardworkpaysoff

  • If you want to find some motivation and get back into fitness with likeminded and supportive coaches then definitely give PPT a go. Lovely friendly gym would definitely recommend!

    Nikki Goodeve Avatar Nikki Goodeve

    PPT is great. They know when to push you and when turning up was the hardest bit. Everyone supports each other and are a genuinely friendly bunch: trainers and trainees. Very inclusive of all levels of fitness and Lycra wearing!

    Emma Russell Avatar Emma Russell

    Great understanding of what exercises are required for individual needs. Enjoying exercising more than I have in years.

  • I highly recommend Potential Personal Training. Maxine and her team are super supportive, friendly and clearly know how to get the best out of their Clients. I have really enjoyed the experience so far and can see myself becoming a long-term member. The other members are also very friendly and supportive and there are no egos. Give it a go!

    Samantha Wooldridge Avatar Samantha Wooldridge

    PPT has not only changed my life but it’s saved my life too! From day one I was made welcome and never felt like I wasn’t good enough or couldn’t try anything, it’s amazing how they cover all levels, ages and experience in 1 group. The physical effect of the past 7 months membership can be seen but it’s also been amazing how I’ve changed/improved mentally. I feel so much more positive about life now and it’s all thanks to the amazing team at PPT ❤️ Not sure they’ll ever get rid of me now!

    Suzie Perrott (Suzie.P) Avatar Suzie Perrott (Suzie.P)

    Such an amazing place to be, with a brilliant team that has given me life-changing results. Not at all being the 'athletic' type, I soon found out that there was a real sense of community and people of all shapes, sizes and abilities. Thank you to all the team at PPT my time with you has really felt a solid and worthwhile investment!

    Charlie Price Avatar Charlie Price
  • The only gym I have ever stuck with - so there must be a magic ingredient! I joined in 2015. The trainers are engaging (and often entertaining!) and will adapt exercises to meet needs. Its social, fun and has a strong community spirit! Lots of lovely people and no egos!! And, of course, the main benefit is that I feel fitter and healthier than I have done for years!

    Jo Cowderoy Avatar Jo Cowderoy

    PPT is great. The trainers are friendly and welcoming but also know when to push you so you get the most out of the sessions. They are knowledgeable so can always change exercises if you need. The PPT community is great!!

    Emily Hague Avatar Emily Hague

    Fantastic gym, highly recommend. All the trainers are great, they vary what we do each session, they're friendly and encourage you to go beyond your comfort zone. You are made to feel part of the gym from the moment you start.
