What’s in a name ……?!
You may think nothing of it……..but I had to think long and hard about ours.
Let me tell you the story behind it….
When I did my degree in Sport and Exercise Science (way back in 2001!) ……………….. I had visions of training pro athletes, breaking records and improving VO2 Max.
(After all………….that’s what we did at Uni! )
A Reality Check
In 2005/2006……I started working with ‘everyday’ people…….people who want to:
- Look better
- Feel better
- Get fitter
….and it dawned on me. ……..That ‘everyday people’ often have a lot more going on than the Pro’s!
- They have to juggle A TON of stuff! (Another job / a family )
- They don’t have access to the best coaches / equipment / information / environment
- They don’t have much spare time!
As I began to get good results as a personal trainer at the Village Gym in Hessle, Hull, I found that People:
- Usually had only 2-4 hours to exercise
- Needed simplicity with their training
- Wanted it to be fun yet challenging
I would also say that, because they tended to sit down at a desk and/or commute all day……They should not be sat down on some machine!

Once I got thinking of some names……it was obvious that I had clients that were at different levels………
- Some had 5,6,7,8,9,10 stone to lose (click)
- One woman I had helped get playing international rugby (click)
- And some really fit ex-athletes just wanted to train hard with like-minded people (click)
……but they were all enjoying the training and the benefits that came with it! This is why we are YOUR Next Level Fitness…….
Because it doesn’t matter if you are level 1 or level 21………we can help you get to Level 2 or 22!
Our original home was Hessle Rugby Club and we grew our Group sessions and 1-on-1 sessions, while training the Rugby team….and then
We opened our new training base 2016 and things got even better…… (click to watch Video )
The original question was “What’s in a Name?”
Now the REAL question is…
What is YOUR name? ….And when do you want to come and look around? 😉
