Based on a beautiful farm in Winsley, between Bradford on Avon and Bath, RUSTIQ Fitness provides group training in a way like no other. True to its name, RUSTIQ takes exercise back to the bare basics, this is through everything from the equipment, much of it repurposed elements from around the farm, such as old tractor tyres, sand bags and drums, through to the raw and spacious farm yard and fields where the various classes are held.

Rustiq classes are always great. Really challenging, but options for people of different levels and something different every time. It’s brilliant not having to think about what to do, and the people are really friendly which makes it so much more enjoyable than the average gym. I am hooked! More...

I really enjoy coming to a Rustiq class once a week. They are challenging but fun and varied. Highly recommended for any level.

Workout in a barn or in the yard outside, plenty of space and qualified staff. Group sizes vary as do the prices of the sessions. Check their website for more details. The workouts are well thought through and about 50 minutes long. The times are fixed and the only one that worked for me was the 8:15 am small (5max) class, but that was £15 a session, this is expensive for what you get, the 9:15am group is 10max and in my opinion much more flexible with regard to the way exercises are modified. It was also £10 a session at the time of attending. Fran has qualifications coming out of his ears, so he’s excellent if you need advice, guidance, or rehabilitation from an injury/ illness. This advertises itself as a Boot Camp style workout but it’s not as aggressive as some I’ve visited. There is some consideration given to the individuals taking part and no undue force applied to be quicker/stronger than other participants, although they do have a link to a website that tracks your performance, this is optional. Please note there are no showering/changing room facilities. There is a toilet though. I do think it’s a expensive for what you get, but you’re probably paying for the privilege of an outdoor workout. More...

I joined the Rustiq community nearly a year ago, wanting to improve my fitness. Fran was supportive when training in early pregnancy and is now helping on my postnatal fitness journey. I chose Rustiq as I didn’t want to be committed to a regular gym which could feel impersonal and sometimes intimidating! The classes have been varied and the opportunity to train outside when the weather permits is great. The flexibility, friendliness of the trainers and the variety in classes/sessions are real highlights for this company. More...

My friends and I have started the Mums class with Fran on a Monday and it’s been great- it helps to be able to take our babies with us and we get such a good work out from it. Great facilities and good variety, I’ve been thoroughly exhausted after every session! Would highly recommend! More...

After only a few weeks training with Fran my pre-baby jeans fit again! The sessions are always perfectly moulded to my capability, pushing me just enough to make a difference but understand to the lack of sleep a new mom sometimes has! Even during the cold dark winter days I always come away feeling rejuvenated. Fran keeps every session interesting using the different equipment. The gym is also well ventilated, ideal to keep COVID safe! More...

My wife, daughter and I have been attending fitness classes with Fran, Flora and Row throughout 2020 and I have to say that they are absolutely fantastic.
They are all very friendly and knowledgeable and really motivate you to get the most out of your training. They have been a life saver throughout the pandemic and our fitness has come on leaps and bounds...
The whole Rustiq team focus on functional fitness and always ensure that the fitness sessions are different and interesting.
I have attended gyms throughout my life, but I find the Rustiq training sessions far more interesting and I always push myself more because of the additional motivation provided by the group sessions and the trainers. No more gyms for me - I’ll be sticking to the Rustiq fitness sessions in future! Thanks guys and girls...

Thanks Fran. Training with you up at the Farm has been so great. Loving the outdoor/yard/barn environment. I’ll never go back to a gym again. You’ve turned back the clocks and reminded me that I can do it ... and that feeling good about myself is all about feeling fit and healthy.... physically and mentally. Thank goodness I found you that’s all I can say. 🏃♀️ More...

I’ve worked with Fran On a ten week strength and mobility course. His focus is more on functional strength and fitness so not an “body building” type environment which is great for all his clients to come together and enjoy working out. The outdoor/indoor space is well equipped and the prices are great value. I’d highly recommend! Thanks Fran and the team behind Rustiq! More...

Fit flock is such a great way to squeeze exercise into your day. So nice being outside or in the barn and Fran designs each class with lots of variation of exercises. Definitely recommend.

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
We approach every client differently, as an individual. We like to talk to our clients, getting to know their personal circumstances to be able to create adherence to healthy habits, not just exercise.
What do you love most about your job?
What I most love about my job is being able to help people improve their fitness, but also their health and well-being. We are proud to be able to reach almost everyone, regardless of their age or experience doing exercise.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Being based on a farm gives me the opportunity to have a break from the modern world and go back to basics. This is what prompted us to start RUSTIQ. We feel that there is no fitness experience like this in the area, as you can exercise in the countryside with recycled equipment from the farm as well as more conventional gym kit.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, upon request. Please contact us for more information.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Being an outdoor facility, the risks associated with Covid-19 are much lower than other indoor facilities. We also have measures in place, such as antibacterial cleaning material, hand sanitisers and lots of space for social distancing. We urge our clients to use our NHS Track and Trace code too.
