"Out of shape and out of time"

Read about Rob's transformation story after he found a carpark right outside Body Torque Gym here.

"As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realised the way I trained in my 20s just doesn’t work anymore. What makes Body Torque Gym different is their coaches understand how the body changes with age and they tailor the training to suit. This means no guesswork and no wasted effort - just smart, safe, and effective workouts that get results."

Real men. Real results

Over time, many members notice improvements in:

  • Strength & body shape
  • Visceral fat, blood pressure & cholesterol
  • Cardiovascular fitness
  • Muscle definition
  • Everyday aches and pains
  • Mobility
  • Energy levels & confidence
  • Mental wellbeing

“I was living on caffeine to push through and alcohol to wind down. I wanted to be there for my wife and four kids, but I had nothing in the tank. One day I thought: What am I waiting for? If I don’t act now, it’s only going to get worse.”

Jeremy
Body Torque Member

"I started at Body Torque with Alex and Phil over 7 years ago and they have changed my life. I went from overweight and not knowing how to workout to being in the best shape of my life. They introduced me to weight training and have shown me the way to work out as I get older. My fitness, and the happiness I get from exercising, is completely down to Alex and Phil and the amazing community at Body Torque. The friendly, encouraging and inspiring environment makes it easy to train.

I cannot recommend joining the gym highly enough, no matter what your fitness level. The BT community and staff will look after you!."
