After five years of membership the corona virus pandemic seems to have brought out the worst in people: the people running the gym appear disreputable and money grabbing.

Really enjoying my PT sessions at Aspire with my husband. We’ve been training a lot with Pete and other trainers, who are all really great. They are all encouraging, positive and even though they have pushed me totally out of my comfort zone I’m really enjoying it and can see a huge difference in my strength and overall fitness. If anyone can make me enjoy and feel comfortable in a gym environment they must be pretty awesome..!!! Thank you guys. More...

Very good place, I went here for the first time today and it had a good selection of equipment and the staff were nice and friendly. Some of the equipment is a bit dirty though, they could do with a good cleaning but apart from that it's a great gym. More...

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
We listen to what they want! The key is understanding exactly what someone wants, we can then look at their current level of fitness and experience and then plot a plan that will meet their goals. It is a collaboration between the client and the trainer. We're not here to punish you with exercise, it is about learning a skill and understanding what you are doing and why you are doing it. We want you to be as involved in the process as we are, we want you to be comfortable with what you are doing and why. That way you won't fear the gym! We have been training for over 15 years and an extensive and varied knowledge base and we've helped hundreds of people achieve all sorts of things from losing weight, climbing a mountain, running an ultra marathon, recovering from back pain and even breaking world records!
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Patience and an open mind! We are here to support you and provide you with the knowledge you need to succeed, all we ask is that we set realistic goals and for you to be honest with us about your expectations and how much effort you are willing to give. If we can do that then there is nothing to stop you.
What do you love most about your job?
Seeing people develop and progress, regardless of their goals. One of the owners Pete is a Physiotherapist as well as a trainer. He recently has been working with a lady with Cerebral Palsy, who originally came to us in a motorised wheelchair that she had had to use for years. In the last few months she has been walking by herself, completely unsupported. As you can imagine, it's a good feeling!
What inspired you to start your own business?
We wanted to integrate physiotherapy, rehabilitation and training into one business, so that we could take any person, regardless of injuries or medical conditions and provide them with training to improve their life. It's been hard work, but worth every second.
Why should our clients choose you?
Our training is based on scientific research and evidence, we are not ones for the latest gym craze if we're honest! Our approach is based on teaching you excellent technique and developing you towards your goals. If you have injuries or medical conditions then we have a team unlike any other that you will find in a gym that can not only provide exercise but fix any problems too. We also passionately believe in what we do, our staff is made up of Ultra Runners, Sports Scientists, Physiotherapists, Sports Therapists, Triathletes, Weightlifters and competing Body Builders - whatever we will make you do we do ourselves! We feel we have a lot to offer and we're confident that we can provide the right training for you - that's why we offer a free, no obligation, taster session to anyone so that you can come and chat to us and see what makes us different!
Physiotherapy
aspire physiotherapy brings together physiotherapy practice with a strength and conditioning background to provide a different prespective on injury and rehabilitation. From accurate diagnosis through to full rehabilitation our team of experts have the skills and the facility to get you back to fully functional health. In the case of sports injuries we have not only successfully treated problems and then provided additional coaching to prevent injury from reoccuring , but we have also been able to improve performance.
Sports Massage Therapy
Our sports massage therapists have over 12 years of experience in injury assessment, treatment and rehabilitation. They also work as personal trainers, so no matter what injuries or medical conditions you might have they can help make a difference to you!
Running Coaching
If you're looking to improve your running coaching then you're in the right place! Ben and Joe, company directors are ultra runners and have competed in over 30 ultras including the 100 mile Spine Challenger, the Lakeland 100, The Arc 100 and the legendary Dragons Back Race. They also understand the importance of gym work for performance and injury prevention. If you are already suffering with a long term problem, then Pete the club physiotherapist can assess, advise and correct any bio-mechanical running issues you may have.
Dietary Advice
We have a wide expertise in dietary advice from weight loss through to fuelling for endurance sport. This can be given as part of our personal training packages or as a stand alone service either in person or via email / skype.
