I love it! 21st September 2009

I have recently joined this women only gym as I have 2 children and it has a (rare) kids corner for me to bring my youngest who can play and still see me while I work out and the 30 min exercise routine appealed to me.

I am 27 and ashamed to say have never exercised before (I thought pushing a pram or swing was exercise)!!

My induction was great they weighed me took my blood pressure etc while I stood on the beautiful under heated floors not wanting to drag myself out to the scary looking equipment! I was shown how to use every machine correctly (they are not so scary now) and shown cardio to do in between stations to keep my heart rate up.
They have funky music (which a pre-recoded voice will tell you over it to move on to the next station so you know when to move on).

The changing rooms are fab, clean with lovely showers and hairdryers and hair straighteners free of charge. The staff are friendly and will help you if needed. I didn't appreciate how nice the gym was and how comfortable I felt there till I took my daughter swimming lessons and had to sit on the side near their sports gym and realised if I had signed up for that gym I would never go as it just didn't appeal to me, as it happens I have gone from never having done a days exercise to attending nearly everyday!

I start powerplate classes on Wednesday and am really excited, something I thought I would NEVER say!

Hugely motivating and visible results! 20th August 2009

I joined New River women's gym for a 2 month Bikini Blitz program. During my time there, my fitness increased dramatically.
Amazingly, the instructors really are as friendly as they advertise themselves to be! They remember your name and use their expert knowledge and skills to push each member to just outside their comfort zone - that's where the visible results come in! I lost several cm all over, in just 2 months.
At the end of my 2 month membership, I was genuinely sad to leave. Had it not been for moving out of the area, I would have taken up a full membership here. The workout is highly effective and it's really easy to motivate yourself to go since it's only 30 minutes each time.
The biggest difference this gym made to me was that it changed my attitude to exercise, as well as changing my body. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Get yourself down there and get that body moving girl!

I jointed New River a month ago and i am absolutely loving it!

Everyone is really nice and they make you feel so comfortable. Before New River i had trouble sticking with a gym for lots of reasons but the NR 30 minute work out is perfect for me or anyone who finds it hard to stay motivated for longer then that.

I also really like the Power Plate workout - its tough but soooo worth it!

Thanks New River :)

after being very sporty at school i started working and found it hard to find somewhere i enjoyed keeping active - then i found new river! the circuit work out is great as it keeps you moving and energised (and staves off workout boredom) and the staff are all really friendly. i have already recommended new river to all my friends and family!

Feeling fit! 19th March 2009

I joined New River about a month ago and I am actually really enjoying going to the gym! The staff are really friendly and helpful and are always about to give support if you need it. The machines are all excellent, and a 30 minute workout is the perfect length of time for a busy schedule. I can already see the results and am feeling much more toned and energetic. Thanks New River!

I am a new member at New River. I found the staff extremely friendly,helpful and full of energy which really keeps you going. I love that it takes 30mins to do the circuit (twice) and my god it makes you sweat!. I am so full of energy afterwards it feels great. I did a powerplate class at the start of this week and just bought a block of ten, that'show convinced I feel it will make a difference.

Highly recommended!!!!!.

Am gonna get fit! 17th February 2009

Had my first session at New River today and it was great. I love men but they do tend to take over in the gym and I like being able to work out without them! Also it's really good that a full work-out can be done in 30 minutes (well, it will be when I learn how to use all the machines properly!) so I can go in my lunch hour every day. The equipment is excellent, the facilities are good and the atmosphere is really friendly and helpful. I'm so pleased I've joined and I'm determined to get fit as quickly as possible.
