Dan Fivey Personal Training

Following a major operation and starting Chemotherapy, Dan was recommended to me for his extremely positive attitude along with his work ethic and health and nutritional knowledge. It was just what I needed. He is supportive to your individual needs, working with you to help you be the best you can be. I would highly recommend the gym and Dan and the hyperbaric chamber which I have found amazing More...

I had an ankle operation in 2017. As a competitive runner, I sought the best route back with my recovery. I had heard positive things but hadn't met Dan prior to my op. He was welcoming and supportive; willing to give me guidance - but also the freedom to do my own thing. The Alter-G was a massive boost for my partial revovery. Big recommendations for Dan and the Gym :-) Keep up the good work More...

Many years ago, Dan helped me get fit for the London marathon 2015 after I tore my calf 4 months before. Using the Anti gravity treadmill at the gym, Dan was able to get me to run my 1st international half marathon in Feb that year. I know this is a very late recommendation, but you know how things go, life throws apples and you make wine lol Thanks Dan! More...

Cannot recommend Dan highly enough, approached Dan last year after a calf tear looked like derailing my marathon training for the London marathon. Not only did he offer professional advice but he helped to keep me sane and keep me going. Even after a major setback with the injury reoccurring Dan kept helping, advising and supporting. Couldn't have don't it without him and for that will be eternally grateful. A great trainer but most importantly to me, he is a great human being!!!! Can't speak highly enough of him or The GYM, Cheltenham More...

I first went to The Gym in April 2019. I had my leg in 'The boot of shame' from an achilles injury. Straight away I was out of the boot and doing exercise to strengthen parts of my body that I hadn't been using properly. I was back to running the next month completing a Marathon, 2 Half Marathons and 100 miles, with Dan constantly messaging me with support all the way round. Something the staff at NHS said wouldn't be possible. Now I go regularly to build my core, upper body and work on getting a sub 2 hour Half. Its hard work and Dan knows how to push you safely through those walls. Dans knowledge, skill advice and support has gotten me fitter than i've felt in a decade! And try the smoothies. More...

I’m finding I get more out of a session with Dan than I would do in a whole week of going to the gym on my own. The sessions are well structured, fun, imaginative, hard work but very rewarding and every time I leave the gym I leave with a big smile on my face! The only negative is Dan’s choice of music...

With the help of Dan Fivey at The Gym and her physio (Clare Woodward), my wife, Naomi, has come so far in 2019. She was bed-bound for 7 months and couldn’t sit or drive due to severe coccyx/tailbone pain. Now she is up and about, in less pain and able to drive herself around for short distances. She’s very happy with her progress and for Dans expertise in rehabilitation from illness. More...

I’ve only just started at the gym and I love it dan is such a positive influence on people who feel ashamed to go to the gym because they feel people would judge them on the way they look however dan doesn’t. He sees everyone as a new challenge and try’s to figure out a routine and goals to whatever the customer wants. I would totally recommend dan to anyone because if it wasn’t for him I don’t think I would be going to the gym as often as I would be now and I feel like dan has got my motivation back.

Unlike many ‘experienced trainers’, Dan actually takes time to listen to you, to what you want to achieve and to any concerns or questions that you may have. He treats and respects you as an individual and works with you, offering advice, guidance and support, to help you achieve your goals. It’s very reassuring to know that you’re not alone and that you’ve got someone to work with on your<span id="moreReview355333" class="hide"> journey.

I needed a professional view on my training regime and diet as my running stamminer and speed seemed to have deteriorated after 3 years since i took up running. <br />Dan came and sat and talked to me for a good hour about my excersise regime and diet, and any injuries i may have or pick up while running. He then went through a few stretches, strengths and weaknesses and stances to judge my body<span id="moreReview122924" class="hide"> shape and what my running style may be. He is very knowledgable and enthusiastic about sport and keeping fit and it rubs off on you and makes you want to get going and improve your life style.<br />I have now taken up his circuit training on wednesdays and even though its 'circuits' i enjoy the physical work out and the cross training as running does little for my lack of upper body strength. After only 2 months of circuits i have already felt the benefits and have taken on alot from his knowledge of running and believe my running style and stamminer has vastly improved.</span> More...
