I’ve really enjoyed my sessions with Olly. He’s friendly and made me feel comfortable and is very knowledgable. As a previous gym goer was looking for some confidence to get back in the gym and it’s definitely got me going. I’ve learnt new techniques and actually enjoyed the work outs . Always feeling much better mentally and physically after each work out. Highly recommend Olly . Thank you 😊 More...

I had 4 sessions with Olly after tearing my acl. Not only is he insanely knowledgable on that kind of an injury, but our sessions were SO well adjusted to my level of ability and making sure not to put too much pressure on the ligament.
My physio was baffled at how well my leg is doing and the stength of all the surrounding muscles. Such a great help in this process of recovery. Thank you so so much.

As a middle age man who hasn't stepped foot in a gym for 20+ years I was dreading going but I have to say it was an amazing experience and I'm still buzzing from it 5 days later. I done one of the sessions in the Red Room for my first ever visit and although tough, the music, the atmosphere, the cameradari and Tom (who led the class) really gets you going. Highly recommend More...

I've learnt more about my injury in the past month with Olly than I have in 25 years.
Olly has put so much effort into understanding my strengths and weaknesses.
He's researched special exercises to work around my injury, as well as strengthen it. I enjoy every session and leave with more energy than I went in with.
He's kind, patient, and makes working out feel like a pleasure not a chore.

I've been to a few drop in sessions while travelling, and this has to be one of the most welcoming boxes that I've visited, the members and coaches are great. The coaching is decent and attentive even in a large class, and the facilities are second to none. More...

Can’t recommend Wildfit enough. I’ve always been an outdoors type of person and the way Oliver puts together a session for the benefit of overall movement and health, I'm really starting to learn more and more about how and why I should be moving all while enjoying the time outside.
I’ve tried several PT’s in the past and after only 5 sessions, I’m more and more excited for the next.
Can’t recommend Wildfit enough if you’re looking to learn and have fun outside!

Working with Wildfit was a walk in the park. Olly (Coach) is a lovely chap and very approachable with extensive knowledge in what to do to get the best out of your body.
The training style is flexible so great for all ages too.
Very humbling experience realising how intense body weight training can be, when your form is instructed the correct way.
Couldn’t recommend this service enough if I tried. Get it touch!

After a break from running I wanted to get back into it and build up my strength and speed. Olly helped me build up to running 5ks again and supported me with my breathing and pacing which I had struggled with previously. With Olly's help I was able to get a PB in a 5k race and completed it comfortably. Olly was friendly and encouraging throughout and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again. More...

Olly has helped me with a plan to increase my core strength and balance which is so important as we age. The plan fits in with my busy work life. He has immense knowledge and explains things well to me. More...

I started sessions with Olly after having my first child so doing exercise felt a bit intimidating. Olly immediately put me at ease and created an individualised plan that really suited me. He has really listened to what I wanted to achieve out of my sessions and provided a fun, supportive and encouraging environment to gain my overall body strength back. I have gained loads of confidence in knowing how to look after my body. Thanks so much Olly! More...

Olly is a pleasure to work with and be instructed by. He has massively improved my running form and has inspired me to move my body more. We have been working on bettering my relationship with exercise and exploring ways to remove certain joint pain from past injuries- more specifically creating space in my hips and ankles. Seeing Olly for my PT sessions is the highlight of my week and I cannot recommend him enough! More...
Iago Caradoc
I trained with Olly over a few months with the aim to build some full body strength & improve my running. I can whole heartedly say I have thoroughly enjoyed every session! Olly has a great attention to detail in his coaching and really helped me progress on my pull ups. My running times have also got better with the foot and knee exercises he has taught me. All in all, Olly has been a very motivating and passionate coach, especially on the days I struggled to workout! More...

Life Changing! In my time at Gain I’ve managed to drop nearly three trouser sizes and no longer “at risk” of Type 2 diabetes, all while making friends for life and enjoying quite a few beers! Tom and the team have created something pretty special in Norwich, everyone of the team knows what they’re doing and how to get the best out of you whether it’s your 1st or 100th time! Get in and try it!! More...

GAIN Fitness is awesome. The staff, the facilities, the people, the variance of classes & of course Tom’s calves. ?
It’s the best fitness & strength based gym in East Anglia.

Great atmosphere and workouts. Coaching is fantastic. Enjoyable place to be. Only gripe is it can be mighty cold in the winter or too hot in the summer due to the lack of air con. Not a big thing, just wear appropriate clothing. More...

Joining Gain Fitness changed my life. Id never stuck at Fitness and stayed consistent with my training until I joined two years ago, but the amazing coaches, fantastic facilities and wonderful people that I train with have made me enjoy fitness like never before. There’s no place like it and I would recommend Gain to everyone. It’s not built my fitness but I have now have more friends than I ever have before. Tom, Helen and the Gain team, you have done an amazing job creating this unique and awesome place! More...
