This was my gym in Keswick (with some of the video footage capturing the gym floor with kit and more kit due ie preacher curl, racks/cages, reception area, stretching/core room, nutrition room and the Studio). This was 10yrs ago before it was lost to the floods (December 2015) in Cumbria but unfortunately & sadly ended up closing in 2016. There was more to come as there was also Cross Fit gym due to happen in 2026. This was an incredible challenging time on so many fronts! It was also Incredible to what the gym achieved; opening opportunities for locals to work in the Fitness Industry, clients/members achieving their results on their own journeys, running Boot Camps to hundreds of people wanting to challenge themselves, other Boot Camps opening up to families so they could bring their children workout and have fun encouraging families to exercise together and not just at our Boot Camps. Training for Obstacle Events like Total Warrior, No Ego, running charity events it Was full on. We became the first gym in Cumbria to teach TRX classes. But None of this could Ever happen without the amazing staff and team that we had, Fitness Warehouse/Gym Gear, people helping me achieve some of my dreams of being able to open my own gym facilities and I actually Will Always be grateful for that and to them! Yes there was negativity and jealous within certain areas and communities but I also saw through All that BS because running your own business makes you become thick skinned! But even today I still get incredible messages from ex members, ex PT clients that were just awesome, incredible people. I will always be grateful for those people that stood by me through the tough times and some of those are still to this day even PT clients that I train but have become more than just that but very good very respectful friends, family! 🙏🏻❤️
