Absolutely brilliant gym - completely personalised, lovely & really knowledgeable coaches and always a great atmosphere. I have joined gyms before and found them boring but in the small groups, you’re helping each other and being guided all the time by a coach. Totally different vibe and the classes whizz by! Highly recommend.

I was a complete novice with gym equipment and language, but I soon picked it up and was literally picking up weights I never knew I’d be able to lift. It’s so good to have the trainer there instructing every step and for me to be able to ask any questions. It’s also extremely encouraging having the others there alongside me in the small group. Within 6 weeks I’ve seen great improvements in my overall body. The Body Scan is an amazing bit of kit! Thanks Dan it’s an amazing gym you’ve built here and continue to improve the workouts so no one can say they are bored.

I have tried sooo many fitness and weight loss programmes which included slimming world, 6 week pt course, 28 day challenges, using my fitness pal myself for calorie deficit but i would do all these but never stick to it, i would go to the gym and have my routine but then think oh im too tired today and wouldnt go! My confidence was low and my motivation was low, In November last year i saw Dan’s sponsored post on instagram saying Black Friday deal 12 week programme and made enquiries with Dan as was also looking at another programme and close to signing up but Dans approach in the messages was not like other PT’s he was understanding and you could tell you wasnt just a number or about getting the money, he was so understanding and interested what my goals were. I totally felt at ease and signed up and wow what a 12 weeks it has been and even signed up again for another 12 weeks! The reason why..i have never felt so determined and good about myself by seeing the results and actually enjoying the journey and this is all thanks to Dan with his support, awesome pt sessions, accountability every week with checks in and feedback every time! Every question asked no matter how small he is there and also the support of the whats app group with tips and regular video’s Dan does to ensure you understand about nutrition and anything else relevant to help with everyones fitness journey! Even outside the gym if you do a fitness event he is so supportive and shares your success! He really cares for his clients and it just wants you to succeed more, i really cant recommend Dan and Forge Fitness and Nutrition enough, its more than a gym its a family that makes you feel at ease and welcome to achieve any goal you have in mind, Thank you for giving me confidence I've never felt before and results i never thought would come!

I can’t believe that I am actually enjoying the gym! 1:1 personal training is available but it’s the Small Group Personal Training (SGPT) concept that Dan and his team have really made work from my perspective - even for those like me that are self-conscious and struggle with motivation. From the easy to use booking system, to the tracking of workouts and achievements, the community with other members, and the attentive weekly personal feedback and progress monitoring of not just my exercise but also my nutrition I am seeing steady and consistent results. With plenty of class times throughout the week, availability has been excellent. Monitoring is via technology that measures body composition in a couple of minutes and gives a detailed view of progress against my weekly goals, tracking and retaining historic data. I enjoy the workouts in the small groups (not more than 6 people) and us all encouraging each other towards reaching our goals and improving with each session. Dan has built a community with Forge and the members, with the sharing of nutrition tips, food ideas, achievements, and arranging social events plus general online chatter should you want it. As you can tell by now - I am a fan and highly recommend Forge Fitness & Nutrition. It’s not like any other gym I’ve tried in the past - it’s so much more than a gym.
