Stop Running : Start Lifting.

When it comes to training for both performance & fat loss, people are usually surprised when I tell them to do the exact OPPOSITE of what they’ve been doing for the past 5-15 years. Cardio classes aren't the answer, more isn't always effective. Here's my top 5 tips: 
1. Pick up heavy shit. As often as possible.
2. Sometimes, lift said heavy things over your head.
3. Stop dieting and eat more (quality) calories.
4. Swap the hours wasted on the treadmill for 3 sessions of high intensity training a week and have a life.
5. Graft hard.

Our People

Stella Bartram
Owner, Coach, lululemon legacy Ambassador, event & competition live MC/Host, Coffee addict & RX Masters Athlete

After a short career as an Artilllery Officer in the British Army and subsequently in corporate roles as a Human Resources Manager, Stella decided that it was time to share her lifelong passion for fitness and training as a full time Trainer & Coach. Her vision: to offer an environment that ticked the boxes that the mass market of chain gyms didn’t.  A place where people wanted to come, empowering everyday men & women to ‘move well and get strong’ by lifting weights, removing the myths surrounding the need for hours of endless cardio and educate as to the most effective and efficient ways to move and where the training is never the same. Stella emotionally invests in each and every person that walks through the door, her positivity and passion is contagious and members leave G5 with a buzz.
A keen athlete herself, you will probably find her sweating in the session!

The Team : Our Members

We believe our Community is the Best.
​We train together, support each other & socialise together. The single biggest single difference between G5 and bigger commercial 'chain' gyms gyms or fitness classes is our focus on individual coaching and education. We believe it's important for us to show you not only HOW to perform movements safely, but also how to achieve maximum efficiency. That's why the majority of our monthly memberships are based around the group sessions. We don't leave you to your own devices, in the hope that you'll see a difference. We create the sessions to guarantee you will see a difference! Over the past 6 years we have already formed life long friendships, sharing personal successes and providing support for each other when things gets tough.

we don't workout: we TRAIN

We believe in the strength of the G5 community. Our gym is not like others that don't care if you turn up or not. We want to see our members - learning, progressing, developing and growing. We encourage you to set personal goals, and we provide the environment to help you achieve them.
