2025 ✅

As the year draws to a close, we want to say a very sincere thank you to everyone who makes BMPT what it is.

This year wasn’t just about training sessions,
It was about people.

That said, the numbers still matter — because they represent commitment:
3,222 personal training sessions completed across the year.
Tuesday crowned our busiest day.
And 10am officially our most popular session time.

Behind every one of those sessions was a decision to show up.
On good days.
On hard days.
On days when motivation was nowhere to be found.

We hosted more social events than we can count — moments that reminded us that BMPT is built just as much through connection as it is through consistency.

Together, we raised over £10,000 for charity through the BMPT Ball and Barrie’s 7 Days of Fitness, held in memory of his dad. A reminder that movement can mean far more than physical change.

We also celebrated something incredibly rare in the fitness industry:
members reaching 5 years, 7 years, and even 10+ years with us.
There genuinely aren’t words that do justice to how grateful we are for that level of trust and loyalty.

And then there’s the community.
When we say community, we mean something that simply can’t be copied.

Cake sales.
Charity days for Youth Zone and Eden Valley.
Saturday morning team training.
Ambassador events in the Lakes.
Members celebrating one of the Team getting married. And countless moments in between that never make it to social media — but matter the most.

BMPT is what it is because of you.
Your effort. Your support. Your willingness to show up — even when life is busy, messy, or hard.

Thank you for another unforgettable year.
Here’s to continuing to build something very special together in 2026

For a successful health and fitness journey, the environment is crucial. A supportive and motivating atmosphere can greatly influence your progress. Do you feel comfortable and safe in your surroundings? Do you feel accountable to yourself or to others in your community? These factors can impact your dedication and enthusiasm as you work toward your goals. Creating an environment that fosters positivity and support is essential for long-term success.

Who’s looking forward to getting back into a good routine with their health and fitness?

If this is you, here’s the best way to do so:

Set some easy targets for the first few weeks

➡️ 2-3 gym sessions per week

➡️ return to normal eating & drinking routine, set some time aside to organise and plan your weekly shop & meal ideas

➡️ get outside for some walks or dedicate some time on a weekend for a long walk to refresh after your working week

The quicker you get back into a routine the better you will feel. If you’re looking for a supportive environment to start exercising and improving your health, BMPT could be the perfect place to start.

A lot of people think health starts with guilt.
It doesn’t.

It starts with feeling safe enough to try again.
Strong enough to lift something you didn’t think you could.
Supported enough to not feel judged when things aren’t perfect.

Take Emma, for example. She’s recently restarted at BMPT after a break.

Why?

Because she knows she’ll be supported.
Because she knows she’s training alongside real people—showing up as they are, on whatever kind of day they’re having.
And because the work we do fits into real lives, not idealised ones.

There’s no pressure to look a certain way.
No expectation that motivation is always high. No assumption that life is calm, organised, or predictable.

Just sensible training.

Clear guidance.

And coaches who understand that progress isn’t linear—and that stopping and starting is part of the process for most people.

If you’ve been thinking about getting back to it, starting again, or simply doing something that feels manageable, know this:

We’re here.
We’ll meet you where you are.
And we’ll help you move forward—at a pace that actually works for you.

Judy has absolutely smashed her training this week and deserves a big shoutout 💪

This week has been our PB week, a week that we look at the progress made over the past training block and aim to improve over the main lifts.

Judy is a brilliant example of this. She’s shown up, put the work in, and earned every improvement. Judy not only improved on her lifts but also on her technique, which allowed for a PB of 70kg on her Rack pull 💪🥳. This is an absolute testament to the effort she puts into each and every session.

Judy is Stronger. More confident. More capable.

As we head into the final weeks of the year, it’s been encouraging to see that members aren’t slowing down. In many cases, consistency is actually improving. That doesn’t happen by chance, and it’s rarely seen in traditional gym settings.

There are three key pillars that make the difference here:

Accountability
From the outset, we put structure in place that supports consistency all year round. Clear expectations, routine and ongoing check-ins remove the reliance on short-term motivation.

Social connection
Training alongside familiar faces matters. Friends, training partners and a shared mindset create an environment where showing up feels normal, not forced.

Clarity
Members know why they are training, what they are working towards and what progress looks like for them. That clarity cuts through the noise, especially at a time of year when distractions are everywhere.

If you're looking for a training space that holds you accountable, gives you clarity, and where you can build social connections, BMPT is the place for you!

Today we held our annual end-of-year review as a coaching team.

It’s a chance to reflect honestly on the year — celebrating what’s gone well, addressing what’s been challenging, and committing to raising our standards as we move forward.

While training outcomes matter, the way those outcomes are achieved matters just as much.

That’s why one of our main areas of focus was the values we hold as a team and as a business.

Values aren’t abstract ideas.
They’re lived out daily in how we coach, communicate, and care for the people we work with.

The values we reinforced were:

Inclusive – creating an environment where everyone feels supported and welcome.
Empathy – understanding individual circumstances while still encouraging progress.
Respect – demonstrated through professionalism, reliability, and trust.
Adaptability – adjusting our approach to meet people where they are.
Excellence – maintaining high standards in everything we deliver.

As we head into 2026, we do so with clear intentions, a commitment to raising standards, and a continued focus on developing better ways to help more people build confidence in their health and fitness.

Progress in the gym doesn’t happen by chance — and neither does progress in our standards.
Both are built through reflection, intention, and a consistent commitment to improvement.

If any of this resonates with you, and you’re looking for a coaching environment built on care, consistency, and high standards, we’re always happy to have a conversation.

Everyone has their own reason for exercising, and many of those reasons overlap.

To stay strong, fit, and healthy enough to remain independent.
To feel comfortable and confident in our bodies and our clothes.

The good news?
A consistent, sensible exercise routine supports all of this.

What often surprises people is the extra benefits that come along— benefits many of our members didn’t expect when they first started:

• Building genuine social connections with like-minded people (just like Liz, Angela & Anne have done)
• Improvements in mood, confidence, and mental well-being

For our members exercise isn’t about chasing extremes or punishing workouts.

It’s about moving better, feeling stronger, and having the energy to enjoy everyday life.

There's no better time to start. Come and experience what a strong community feels like at Christmas time! Go into the new year with momentum, ready to change your health, fitness and confidence in 2026

Deborah & Wendy have been an absolute testament to what we do here at BMPT 💪
Over the past 4 years of training, they have both improved both physically and mentally, not to mention coming into each session with determination to be better than when they walked in.

Even when times have got hard with injuries and life in general, they have made a commitment to their training and to themselves to ensure their health is a priority. Something we really love about Deb and Wendy is that they have chosen to spend quality time as sisters together in their training, pushing each other and holding each other accountable to reach goals and improve every day! ☺️☺️

It's an honour to train Deb and Wendy and to see their everyday life improve as a result of their consistency.
Keep up the amazing work, ladies! 💪 We can't wait to see what the future holds!!

If you're looking to improve everyday life, and are sick of not seeing the results you want. We would love to help.
