I want to join the gym , what do I do next?

First step is to book an appointment with one of the trainers – this can be for just a casual chat to start with, or it could be for a trial session to see how you get on, or you may have made your mind up that you want to join and so we can organise your induction.

Whenever I’ve exercised before my back feels worse, is there any point?

I’ve had a knee replacement, what should I do?

A regular exercise program is a key part of recovery from your operation. A carefully designed programme will help you restore normal movement, build up strength in the surrounding muscles, ease pain and swelling and help to improve circulation. In short, it will enable you to get back to normal activities as soon as possible and increase the longevity of the knee joint itself.
