Kettlebells

What attracted you to The TOUGH Spot?

I'd been going to a gym for the last 4 months or so, and not seeing the kind of results I wanted. I've never enjoyed the standard gym classes like "Spin" and "Pump" so I'd generally do cardio and weights. But I guess you never push yourself as hard as you should. A friend took me to my first Kettlebell class at The TOUGH Spot and I was hooked - you work harder then you would on your own, in a fun and positive atmosphere, doing weird and wonderful exercises you've never seen before. I am now regularly attending up to 5 classes a week!

How are you enjoying the variety of classes and do you know of any other gyms with a wide variety of classes like ours?

The variety of classes, and indeed the variety of exercises within each class, means you are doing something different every time you go to a class at The TOUGH Spot. I've been a member of a number of different gyms over the years and I've never seen a gym that came close to the variety of classes offered at The TOUGH Spot.

Do you think there is any reason for people to be intimidated by our image and why?

On first impressions, the gym appears to be the domain of elite athletes and body builders; however, there is truly something for everyone at The TOUGH Spot. The classes are regularly attended by people of all ages and fitness levels, and all the trainers are friendly and approachable. The TOUGH Spot's image certainly makes it look like a high-end training facility, but it is not something by which you should be intimidated - there are classes for everyone and if you are looking for a new gym to join, I would encourage you to drop in after work and try out a class!

We strive to create a fitness community, do you think we have succeeded, and if so, why?

The TOUGH Spot is unlike any gym I've ever been to - there is none of the attitude or pretentiousness you might find at other gyms. Everyone - staff and members - are friendly and approachable. The staff go out of their way to ensure your time at the gym is both productive and enjoyable.

Your own feedback about (classes / environment / people / generic)

The TOUGH Spot is uniquely located on top of a warehouse in West End, which means classes can be taken inside or outside. There is something very enjoyable about doing a class in the fresh air under the evening sky!
