Amazing gym with very caring and knowledgeable instructions. Many of the members have been going for years which is a testament to the brilliant work that they do. I'm only a newbie and I have felt very welcome and I see myself improving every day. Great facilities too!

I have been coming to the Hurt Locker for over 3 years and I have never looked back. I have met friends for life and you have given me that and I am forever grateful ❤️ My son coming too has shown him how being fitter can be fun and these people are also family to him. People that care about you and your progress. No judgement. I feel comfortable training with the lads and the lasses and you do not get that anywhere else!! I love the crack, it’s just a laugh non-stop, so much fun. I love the charity days where everyone gets together and gives their all! This is a functional family and that is rare to find! Sparks, you have something no one else has or will ever have! Love you’s! OI OI 💪🏼

Joining The Hurt Locker over three years ago was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. At the time, I was feeling lethargic, gaining weight, dealing with a stressful job, and being hit hard by perimenopause. Worst of all, I realised I wasn’t modelling the healthy, positive lifestyle I wanted my son to see. ​I had wasted money on countless gym memberships in the past, but The Hurt Locker was entirely different. It delivers exactly what it promises. It’s not just a gym; it’s a community of like-minded people who encourage and support each other. Everyone remembers taking that first nervous step through the door, which makes it such a welcoming environment. ​This is the only gym that has helped me build genuine enthusiasm for fitness. Today, I even go to the gym with my son and celebrate our wins and PBs together. I got so much more than getting stronger, losing inches and getting fit here; I got my energy, confidence, and quality family time back. Taking that first step three years ago is something I’ve never regretted for a second!

I love coming here! Although not enough at the moment 😪 everytime I get anxiety about coming and I don’t know why, every single person is welcoming, friendly and helpful. I have much more confidence in myself. Big shout out to James he makes me feel so much better about my abilities. Cannot recommend this place enough. Thanks for everything 🥰x

I joined The Hurt Locker back in August 2021, post-pandemic and carrying quite a bit of that working-from-home weight! I signed up for the 28-Day Challenge and honestly, I’ve never looked back. Before joining, I’d never really stuck to anything when it came to fitness, but there’s something very special about this gang. It’s so much more than a gym. It’s a genuinely supportive, inclusive community where everyone belongs, no matter where they are on their fitness journey. I’ve made some wonderful friends along the way, and the personal trainers are a huge part of what makes it work. They make training fun, keep you accountable when you need that extra push, and there’s a brilliant social side to it too. We really are like one big family, and that sense of belonging is what keeps me coming back. A huge shout-out to our David, James, Michael, Joanne, Lori and Charlie. You’ve created something really special and I’m so glad I walked through those doors back in 2021. ❤️

I joined 13 years ago and I'm still here, which probably tells you everything you need to know.This family-owned gym is about so much more than fitness. It's built on community, confidence and making everyone feel welcome, whether you're an athlete or someone who hasn't exercised since forever.Expect plenty of banter, laughs, sweat and swearing, usually in equal measure. The coaches know how to push you when you need it and support you when you need that instead.More than anything, this gym has been my sanity through life's ups and downs and often the best part of my week. They genuinely value mental health as much as physical performance, while still creating an environment where you can work hard and achieve great things.A gym full of good people, bad jokes and great coaching. 13 years later, I still wouldn't go anywhere else. 💪❤️

The coaches and members are so friendly and welcoming, completely eliminating any gym intimidation. You feel genuinely supported in every single session. Couldn't recommend them enough!Wish I found them sooner

I joined in May, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for myself. From day one, I’ve felt so welcomed and supported. The people and coaches are fab! Everyone is friendly, encouraging and genuinely wants to see you do well. The coaches are also really knowledgeable and always happy to offer advice and guidance. It’s such a positive and welcoming environment. I’m really happy with the results I’ve achieved so far, and I’m excited to see how much further I can progress. It’s not just a gym to me anymore, it’s a place where I feel comfortable, motivated and supported 💪❤️ 👟🧦 HOWEVER, one little piece of advice for anyone thinking of joining… make sure your socks match the brand of your trainers! 👀😬 Or be prepared to get absolutely griefed to bits! 😂 It’s all part of the fun though and honestly I wouldn’t change a thing! Lotsa love x

I have been going to this gym for years, I initially joined with a goal to look and feel great in my wedding dress. What I didn’t realise is I gained so much more than just fitting in a wedding dress, I found somewhere where you are welcomed and members are friendly and supportive! It’s not just a gym there are supportive trainers and and the programme changes to help you progress. There is a mix of bootcamp and weight classes that you can easily book through an app. There is a supportive facebook group where you can ask for advice and people share recipes if you are looking for ideas. I recently started the 90 day accelerator as I’m turning 40 and I wanted to get in shape and set myself a fitness goal. I have found the support great and I’m on track to my goal weight and I have felt so much better in terms of confidence and changed my perspective on ‘good’ ‘bad’ food, they help you get a balance as that’s what life is about.

Finally found the gym for me. Great atmosphere, knowledgeable coaches and a supportive gym family. It’s not just the training sessions, but the social events too which make the hurt locker stand apart from other gyms.

2026-10-16T16:19:03.000Z

Joined in may and it’s the best thing I’ve done best gym I’ve ever been to. Staff are great and so are the members. More than just a gym and training great craic and great people 💪🏼❤️

I joined to fit in my wedding dress, but I got so much more; supportive community, focus better sleep and nutrition

Im half way through a 28day kickstart. Very different from any training I've done over the years in commercial gyms. These trainers are extremely professional, friendly and so helpful. There doesn't seem to be any clicks or judgemental behaviour from any other people in the gym and everyone has been so welcoming and nice. Its such a good atmosphere, ive left feeling on a high each time and felt ive actually worked hard in the short time ive been there and the nutritional side of it is easily explained. aAny help/advice you need at anytime the team are on hand to answer any questions, nothings a bother. Great place to train, The Hurt Locker is definitely the best place ive ever been to for fitness.

2026-05-11T16:21:45.000Z

Fantastic place to train…. Brilliant coaches and a very comfortable environment to train in! I’d recommend to anyone and everyone
