TESTIMONIALS

Oakfields is a great gym - it has a happy atmosphere, all the trainers are likeable and friendly and have a professional attitude to promoting the overall fitness of their clients. It's a pleasure to recommend them.

Jen

Starting at a new gym can sometimes feel intimidating and this had always posed a bit of a barrier for me. I found Oakfields and have never looked back. Immediately feeing at ease with a friendly, welcoming environment it was just the type of gym I was looking for. I would certainly recommend Oakfields to anyone.

Kath

For anyone considering personal training for the first time, for whatever reason, I can’t recommend the Oakfields team highly enough - it’s a fun, supportive and completely unintimidating environment to train in - worth every penny!

I first met Lee 15 months ago when I visited Oakfields Personal Training to discuss creating a weight loss program. I now see him for an hour a week and he can take a lot of the credit for the results I have achieved. From the outset, he worked around my abilities and physical limitations.

Having seen a chiropractor regularly for several years to temporarily manage and correct a back problem I was put in touch with Lee at Oakfields about 18 months ago. The message on the back of his t-shirt promised to change my life in six weeks. He probably managed it in five. My back problem was solved by building up core strength and then focusing on sustainable weight loss, strength and aerobic fitness. I am fitter at 46 than I have been for the last 25 years.

Jonathan

I got in touch with Oakfields when I felt in a bit of a fitness rut - I’d go for half-hearted runs and do the occasional exercise video at home but didn’t feel totally fit and healthy. Training at Oakfields has been such a turnaround for me; I expected to feel fitter and slimmer (which I do), but what I didn’t expect was a feeling of general positivity and a newfound enthusiasm for work and confidence in other areas of my life.
