60 Smarter is a great gym! I’d never done weightlifting before joining and was made to feel comfortable straight away. James makes an effort to welcome everyone coming in and there are always a range of people using the spaces. I subscribe to the Plus Membership which means I get a bespoke fitness plan, accessible in an app, to aid my progression. As a weight lifting newbie, this has enabled me to learn a range of different exercises and progress much more quickly than I could have done alone. The plan is highly personalised to account for my injuries and James is responsive if it needs amending. If you’re thinking about signing up, don’t hesitate! More...

Well equipped gym with genuinely friendly and very helpful staff. I have tried other gyms in the past but this one is by far the best. It doesn’t matter whether you’re experienced at the gym or a nervous novice, you’ll be well supported and looked after here. More...

Nice gym ran by great people. Large area and three different rooms so plenty of space. Running out of plates is never an issue.

I would absolutely recommend this Gym. The staff are very knowledgeable and always happy to answer questions or help members out. The people are such a friendly crowd and there's always something going on outside of gyming. A great community to be a part of. I've made some lovely friends here and always look forward to going. The equipment is fab compared to other gyms and I'm never waiting to get on anything. Lots of different membership options that are tailored to suit each person as well and everything can be recorded on an app so you can see your progress. Great place 🙌 More...

Without a doubt the best gym in North tyneside. I've trained in most of the gyms around the area over the past 20 odd years, I found Smarter fitness about a year ago and wish I did earlier. It is the best gym around. It has a great range of weights, machines and quality equipment including some great speciality barbells. The staff are Knowledgeable, friendly and You Can tell they are passionate about helping people achieve their goals. It has a great bunch of members of all levels, everyone is encouraging to others bringing a great atmosphere to the place. If you are serious about training and achieving your health and fitness goals, this is the gym for you. More...

Great people, always willing to help. Bunch of classes if you want to try them out. Owners and PTs are actual humans and will have a chat to you like one. Lots of power racks, machines and there is always new equipment being brought in. Some of the photos on Google don't do it justice, the place looks much nicer now - have a look yourself. Solid. Go sign up. Nothing I'd change. More...

I think for me the fear of the gym and that general gym environment was the biggest hurdle I had to overcome. James and Dan put you at ease immediately and are friendly and approachable. They make you feel comfortable and take their time to explain what you are doing and why you are doing it. They help you create a plan to achieve your goals and provide plenty of encouragement along the way. They clearly know their stuff and the training can of course be challenging, but for me it’s their friendly and encouraging approach that stands out the most. I would definitely recommend them if you are new to working out and looking to get in shape. More...

Can't highly recommend this place even more! started training at 60smarter a year ago unfortunately due to the covid 19 pandemic my training has been on & off but with there training techniques & platforms I have learned so much & continue to do so & my strength is ten times better than it was! 💪
Den
60 Smarter coaches are amazing, supportive and very knowledgeable. I've been training with them for a few years now and I am seeing great results. Wouldn't go anywhere else!
Adam
I’d recommend Dan, James & 60 Smarter to anyone. Dan & James are both very knowledgeable when it comes to fitness and nutrition and they will always try and answer any questions you have. When I first joined 60 Smarter I was completely new to any form of weight training and Dan & James asked me what my goals were and came up with a plan which not only helped me work towards my goals but also fitted in with normal day to day life. Over the past year and a half I have definitely became more confident in the gym thanks to their coaching. Another thing that Dan & James have created is a fantastic atmosphere in the gym itself where everyone is really friendly and supportive which is another thing I love. I would highly recommend 60 Smarter to anyone! More...

Really friend gym, James and Dan are really knowledgeable and helpful. Enjoy going to PT sessions here.

Absolute top men who take great pride and ownership in their work. Nothing is ever too serious, I’ve been coached off both for a number of hours now but from the very start I got on well with them, joking and laughing through my workouts.
If you go with their personal training, they design you a specific workout program on an app. It makes things so easy to keep track which ultimately allows you to see your progress.
They are both human too, they don’t expect you to train 7 days a week and eat chicken, rice and broccoli. They cater for you. Give you nutrition tips, tastes alternatives and good cheat meal ideas!
My biggest thing about going to the gym was feeling interacted but at 60 smarter there are no egos and the place is very welcoming. The gym and it’s members make the place feel very welcoming, there are chats and Facebook pages to join. This doesn’t mean to say you have to be an out there person to go. I’m pretty introverted, say very little in the group chat and just go there and mind my own business which the gym is very good for that too.
The gym itself has top of the range equipment, it also has a second room with punch bags, kick bags, etc. Such a good cardio facility.
The price this place charges per month to go is the cost of what? 6/7 coffees?
Absolute no brainier...

Best gym I’ve been to in Newcastle with a great atmosphere!
60 smarter is full of amazing coaches, who are full of knowledge and experience.
I’ve gained better understanding of techniques and form. They’re so supportive, friendly and are always happy to help if you’re unsure of anything. I’ve even tried the boxing taster sessions and will definitely be returning.
Great for beginners and people who already have some experience. Highly recommend these guys!

Can’t recommend the two lads enough, best in the area for advice and knowledge in there field.

I don’t have a single bad word to say about the 60 smarter gym or the coaches. James and Dan have really helped me personally reach my goals, both in the gym and remotely during lockdown. The coaches at 60 smarter have created a very friendly environment, whereby all members support one another and help each other make positive changes to themselves. More...

Absolutely love working with the guys at 60 Smarter. They are so knowledgable and genuinely care about results. I’ve never enjoyed the gym so much!
Sam Roberts
Loved every minute of it! Both James and Dan are the most knowledgeable people when it comes to all aspects of fitness and nutrition.
The plan they made me was personalized to my goals and I saw legitimate results!
I use the nutrition plan Dan made me nearly every day and the advice James gave me through training has helped formed better technique and positive habits! He also helped me with a knee issue that has plagued me for a while but has gone now!
The biggest compliment I can give though is the gym is a friendly, encouraging and fun place to be. Best place I've trained and would recommend it to everyone I could! Thanks guys!

Working with James and Dan was a very positive experience both are excellent coaches and really knowledgable. As well as coaching James has extensive experience in rehabilitation which he used to help me heal a torn rotator cuff. Dan provided exercises which target specific area’s of the body. Both are client focused, friendly and approachable. I would have no hesitation recommending their services to anyone. More...

Thanks to James and Dan at 60 Smarter, I have progressed from having zero confidence in a gym environment, to achieving goals I’d never have thought possible. They are friendly, knowledgeable and motivational and go out of their way to help clients/members. I can’t recommend them enough. More...

Cheers for the help lads!
Dan and James are amazing at what they do, known both for years now and followed their own training programmes as well as seeking advice for myself.
They've tried it all themselves and definitely give you realistic and manageable advice and don't pretend there is a magic fix. Their plans and coaching style always feel personalised it's great to have your sessions planned based on your goals rather than what's hot in the fitness industry on that given day.

How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
You’ve probably tried multiple diet and workout programs in the past. And you’ve concluded that they simply don’t work in the long run.
Instead of the all-or-nothing approach, we use a sustainable, practice-based approach to build healthy habits into your life, one day at a time.
The result? You’ll lose the weight (and inches) you haven’t been able to shed for years. You’ll build muscle, strength, and confidence. And you’ll get into awesome shape, without other parts of your life taking a back seat.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
You tell us what you want to do. We’ll help you do it. First, your coach will learn about your lifestyle, needs, and specific goals. Then, over the course of the program, we’ll give you everything you need to look, feel, and perform better than you thought possible. Guaranteed.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Lasting body transformations like we have don’t come from dieting or hardcore fitness programs. They come from proven, research-driven methods that continue to work with tens of thousands of men of all shapes, sizes, and lifestyles. And they happen when you have a world-class coach in your corner to keep you on track and guide you step-by-step toward total body transformation.
Why should our clients choose you?
When life gets crazy and responsibilities at home and work pile one on top of the other, it’s easy to let our health and fitness slip. The years go by and we don’t even realize how much our health had declined.
But for most of us, there comes a time when we realize things must change. A time when gaining control over our body takes on new urgency.
For some, it’s a scary health diagnosis. For others it’s watching a loved one struggle with their own health problems. And for others still, it’s when they finally realize they’ve spent so many years taking care of others, that they neglected to take care of themselves.
When it’s time to turn things around and start a new health and fitness program, however, it can be difficult to know what to do next. And staying motivated is hard — especially if you try to do it all on your own.
That’s where I come in.
My goal is to help you get in the best shape of your life and stay that way. Starting now.
