Common FAQs

What Happens When I Get Started?

Well, before every member starts you’ll get a 1-2-1 Consultation with one of our coaches to make sure you can get off to the best possible start and make sure your experience at PPT is the best it can be. We’ll discuss specific goals and how we can help, any concerns or limitations before you start.

We want to get to know our members before they get started so we know how to help you best! We’ll then set you off with the programme to best suit you so you can get the most out of your time at Potential Personal Training.

    Diane Lehwald  Avatar Diane Lehwald

    It's an alright gym with good quality trainers. I just would not recommend doing the Personal Training qualification with them.

    MDK Avatar MDK

    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
  • 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!

    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

    pete wyatt Avatar pete wyatt

    PPT is not just about getting or keeping fit, its about a whole body approach to your wellbeing. Before starting you have a personal interview with Maxine and she takes you through your where you are currently and where you would like to be. Everyone is helpful and understanding. The nutritional support that goes alongside of the exercise programme is brilliant. Can highly recommend PPT.

    Phoenix Therapy Practice Avatar Phoenix Therapy Practice
  • 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 is so much more than a gym! The clue's in the name - the most fabulous bunch of likeminded people shown how to realise their true potential by some of the best personal trainers in the business!! 👍

    Chris Paul Avatar Chris Paul

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

    Paul Langridge Avatar Paul Langridge
  • 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 have been in and around gyms for the last 35 years, but i have never been in one like this, but this isn't a gym, this is a community where the culture stands head and shoulder above all others. From the first moment i walked in every coach knew my name, the other members are so incredibly welcoming and great fun to be around. Almost as a complete aside there is the fitness and programs which are constantly changing and evolving, it is such a supportive environment that even if you're having an off day or are carrying an injury the sessions are adapted to encourage you to continue. I have found my last gym.

    Phil Maynard Avatar Phil Maynard

    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!

  • I started as a client in 2016 to improve my overall fitness and nutritional awareness. At the time I remember visiting other gyms and personal training companies but there was something different about what Maxine was doing at PPT that made me give them a go - and I’ve never looked back. The coaches are brilliant they know when to push you and when you have more to give but it’s okay to work at your own pace - which can vary from session to session. The best thing about PPT however is the community that they have built. I’ve met loads of great people most of whom are serious about their fitness and wellbeing without being the atypical gym posers. I’ve got injuries (unrelated to PPT) but I’m able to work around them and ensure that I can continue and stay fit and get stronger. Their motto is “no ego, just results” - which sums my experience up brilliantly.

    Allan Potter Avatar Allan Potter

    HIGH blood pressure, boarder line Diabetes, overweight, not really exercised since school.. Hated exercise - YEWWWeeee.... BUT PPT has changed that -Love coming to class.. MIss it and I am grumpy! It s all round approach means not only are they looking after your fitness but you mental well being too. LOVE being part of this community !

    Jo Cheshire Avatar Jo Cheshire

    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!

  • Maxine and her team are the best, they know exactly how to get the best out of you and you feel part of a proper community!

    Love training hard with this amazing group of people. They are the most supportive, encouraging & motivating community/gym I have been a member of. No egos.... just results, they speak for themselves

    Diane Braid Avatar Diane Braid

    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
  • Definitely not your average gym. No egos. Instead it’s a wonderful, diverse community of people all working together to help encourage one another & promote achievements. The team that work at the gym are personal, friendly and very professional. They offer a wealth of knowledge & insight as well as promoting events outside of the gym & help you work towards your goals!

    Chantelle Batchelor Avatar Chantelle Batchelor

    I’ve been a member of PTT since 2018. The coaches are super at what they do. I’ve totally changed my mindset towards fitness. I’m the healthiest and fittest I’ve ever been. I’ve taken on challenges, which I thought I couldn’t do. I’m a totally different person to who I was 18 months ago. PPT has been my training ground in physical and mental resilience. I also qualified as a PT with Connor who is an excellent coach, mentor and teacher. One of the best decisions I made was to keep going despite finding the workouts challenging to start with. Progression rocks!!

    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 🤩

    Alison Dalziel Avatar Alison Dalziel
  • Approached PPT with the aim of a quick 3 month blast to rejuvenate my fitness programming. The fact that I am still remain a member now 2 years on is testament to the professionalism and results drive by Max, Connor and the other coaches. All of my compound lifts have better form and significant increase in weight, every year is a PB year. I have introduced my wife to the gym who is a traditional gym no goer and she loves it and is getting great results. A perfect environment for anyone on any part of their fitness journey. They have embraced digital, hybrid and safe in person environments during the Covid-19 pandemic to ensure that all the community continue to benefit from the physical and mental benefits of fitness - chapeau!

    James Roberts Avatar James Roberts

    What can I say? Short version - I have lost 2.5 stone in five months and feel as fit as a fiddle. Long version - this is a superb set-up: a great leader in Max with a highly professional long-standing team behind her ('long-standing' is a great sign) and membership is booming (another excellent indicator). I attend four weekly sessions along with my wife with nearly every workout being different. They cater for all shapes and sizes and ages like me (I'm 57) and nothing is ever too much for them. You may baulk at the price but, believe me, it's worth every penny and is fantastic value for money. We need to clone Max and her team and get them around the country. I can't recommend them highly enough. Take a bow!

    Andy Salmon Avatar Andy Salmon

    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
  • 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

    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

    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.

  • The best investment I've made in myself - I'm seeing gains and improvement every session. The coaches are all really friendly, understanding and professional. And the community has been brilliant; welcoming and supportive.

    David Randel Avatar David Randel

    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.
