I went to 3 or 4 gyms in the first few months including one of the well known chain health clubs in Nottingham and encountered multiple problems: lack of equipment for the amount of people that go there (squat racks, benches, no deadlift platforms, etc), not enough free weights and generally finding the atmosphere and environment intimidating or cold in some way. To be fair larger gyms can suffer from this as there isn't really a social aspect because of the larger size/volume of people but either way it didn't make me feel entirely comfortable.
Once I heard about Real World Fitness and saw the place first-hand I signed up straight away and haven't looked back once. It has no issues with equipment and has all the facilities you'd expect at the gym but more importantly has an atmosphere that makes you want to be in the gym every day. The personal trainers, and each and every member smiles at you when you walk in, asks you how your day was and everybody is respectful of the equipment and each other.
Whilst at RWF I have developed a passion for power-lifting, and aided by the guidance of Tim (my PT) and Derran, the other PT's and indeed a few of the other members it has changed my view on exercise and the gym entirely - a year ago I had never entered a gym (nor did I think I wanted to!) but now I want to be there everyday and I intend to enter a powerlifting competition next year - and I know everybody at RWF will support me along the way.
I’ve been helped by Derran (PT), who has taught me how to squat, bench press and do a variety of dead lifts without getting hurt. As a novice who has a few previous injuries and health issues, it’s been reassuring to have support and carefully considered guidance to help me progress.
There’s also free proper coffee on the go, all the time.
It’s a good place.
If you choose to get personal training, I definitely recomend it! Always on time, super friendly, perfect teaching for movements and always there for any questions or concerns.
It's worth every penny, both the gym and the PT sessions.
