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.

What If I’ve got some injuries or pain?

Trust me, we’re used to this at PPT. We will discuss any injuries, pain or limitations due to medical problems etc before you get started so that you won’t be made to do anything that makes your feel uncomfortable during your training.

Our coaching team are trained in adapting our programmes to all types of injuries and pain to make sure firstly that you’re safe and stay injury free but also so that you get the most out of your sessions.

What If I’ve never exercised before?

  • 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

    I have been going regularly for a year now and it has become a way of life. You don’t need lots of expensive equipment like many gyms but what they have is very effective. You need knowledgeable, motivating, friendly coaches who design your programme and help you make progress. This is what PPT provides and the effect is that it is popular, fun and you come out feeling great. It’s worth every penny.

    Jeremy Paine Avatar Jeremy Paine

    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.

  • I have never stayed with a gym before joining here. It is good fun and has kept me motivated. The staff are all lovely. I would really recommend it.

    Scarlet Hutchinson Avatar Scarlet Hutchinson

    PPT is awesome. Great facilities, PTs, and community. It doesnt feel like most gyms. The No Egos, Just Results motto really resonates. Everyone is awesome, works together, and get results. Cant recommend enough.

    Andy Collen Avatar Andy Collen

    Great Gym with a fantastic group of people and trainers. Don't get me wrong, they make you work hard but always with a sense of fun and belonging. Great support from fellow members and trainers. It feels more like a family than a gym

    Chris Donohue Avatar Chris Donohue
  • I love my time at the gym, the trainers are amazing, it's like a second family, very friendly! Alsorts of ages, never feel my age when I go! You start at your own speed then you can see overtime how much you have improved! Various classes to choose from too!

    Diane Lehwald  Avatar Diane Lehwald

    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

    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
  • Been going here for over a year now and have never really stuck at a 'gym' like I have PPT. I love it. The coaches are great, the classes are always different so it always feels fresh, and the people make it so much more enjoyable. I couldn't recommend it enough...

    Liam Laville Avatar Liam Laville

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

    MDK Avatar MDK

    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!

  • 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!

    Brophy Brophy Avatar Brophy Brophy

    Love it here. The community is fantastic and so welcoming and the coaches make you feel super comfortable. Sessions are fun and varied, and it's the first time I've truly looked forward to going to a gym. Thanks to all at PPT!

  • I've been running on and off for years, but have recently joined PPT for strength classes to help me run better. It's been a brilliant experience, with a really friendly, helpful training team and great community of different people.

    John V Willshire Avatar John V Willshire

    Starting as a client in 2014 I was initially nervous of what was expected of me in sessions. I shouldn't have worried - the staff were (and still are!) super friendly, knowledgeable and approachable; they make you work harder than you think you can, and help you achieve so much. As for the clients - they are amazing!! I am proud to be part of such a great community six years on.

    Liz G Avatar Liz G

    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
  • 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!

    Bec M Avatar Bec M

    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.

    Katie Pashley Avatar Katie Pashley

    Potential isn't a gym, its a community. One that supports, inspires and drives you to hit the goals you want, without any pressure to be someone you ain't! Top quality trainers are just the tip of the iceberg.

    Chris Carter Avatar Chris Carter
  • 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

    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

    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,

    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

    This is not a normal gym. So friendly helpful and affective. Would absolutely recommend to anyone in the area.

    Ben Painter Avatar Ben Painter
  • 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 first became a member of PPT 8 years ago and loved the community atmosphere, and personal coaching style. I made great friends, lost weight and grew stronger. Having left for a move to London, years later I’m back in the local area raising a family and attending PPT again. This time around I’m focusing on my mental health; the sessions have really helped me with getting out of my home office, and have given me an hours break from being ‘Mum’. Join if you’re looking for a non-intimidating environment and something more than your conventional gym.

    toby nelly Avatar toby nelly

    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!
