The staff are all really friendly whilst being expert professional trainers , encouraging the best out of me and the other members at every session..

Fantastic experience: It's a fantastic place to go and train. Brilliant trainer's that are great at breaking down the exercises that you will be doing but also a great laugh. AKR has a great vibe for anyone that is looking to get a good work out and good chat and not feel uncomfortable about what ever level you enter at.

Alin Chindea 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: As others have pointed out, this is so much more than just a gym. I've attended gyms in several other countries but AKR is by far the best in all aspects. Exceptional level of care, bespoke training based on ability, mood, and/or energy level, fun and professional trainers, welcoming and inclusive environment and so much more. It's the best investment in myself. The way I feel about it can be summarised in a sentence: once I'm done with a training session, I can't wait to go back! Can't recommend it enough!

Fantastic experience: So much more than just a gym. You are treated like a VIP from the second you walk in the door. Training is tailor-made to your ability, always with a professional coach in a super friendly, non-intimidating environment. AKR help to improve your lifestyle habits, and build a better mindset about fitness - it's not just about losing weight or upping the Kgs on your deadlifts. There is a strong sense of community in the gym, and social events for members. It's impossible to not make friends!

Lyndsay Hay 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Literally my favourite place to be. So much more than just a gym. Its a proper community and has the biggest family feel. The trainers are always there to listen and support you along your journey both physically, mentally and emotionally. The way they have adapted during COVID also has been amazing. Never letting their team/members down and always making us smile no matter how we arrive feeling!

Amy Maclean 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of AKR for about a year. I had been recommended it by a work colleague and after my first visit to the gym, I knew it wad going to be very different to all other gyms in the city. Then COVID-19 hit in March and the gym had to close. This did not stop the coaches from supporting us-they took the gym online effectively overnight. It was incredible, and really felt like you were part of a strong community of people. Since being back to the gym, the care and attention to detail to ensure that everyone is safe whilst in the gym is second to none. The coaches tailor your workout to your needs and expectations of that day. They take the time to listen to you about your goals for your session. I couldn’t recommend AKR highly enough. There is not a better gym in Aberdeen.

Robin Taylor 3 years ago

Paul G 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Tremendously encouraging people and always easy going, would highly recommend for those looking to enter fitness and for those trying to stay at the top of their game.

Fantastic experience: I only moved to Aberdeen in June. I tried another gym before coming to AKR and needed more. Saw an advert on Facebook for AKR which looked good, looked like the exact kind of place I was looking for.........afew months on and I’m still here. I look forward to going to the gym now! this is a place where you matter, and where everyone cares (sounds cheesy right? it’s true though!). All the staff care about how you are, how you’re doing - and the members are exactly the same.......it’s a true #fitfam at AKR. I am by no means the quickest, the strongest, the fittest or the smallest at AKR however I am on a level playing field with every single person there, there’s no embarrassment, no shame, no getting shouted at, you don’t get singled out! Not only am I achieving something new or something better with each session but it’s helping me focus on other aspects of my life. We’re all human and have good days as well as not so good days - AKR get it! Give it a try, you might surprise yourself.......like I am every time I go through the door

Lisa Blacklaw 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of AKR for 3 1/2 years now, consistently training 3 times a week and joining is without a doubt one of the best decisions I have made. I’m much fitter, stronger, have more energy and self confidence. The coaches are first class, all classes/PT sessions are tailored to your abilities and also the facility and equipment are excellent. In addition, a fantastic supportive all inclusive community has been built where everyone is welcomed. Highly recommend, it’s more than a gym.

David Wilson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of most gyms in Aberdeen over the years and cant believe I hadn't been to AKR before now. The trainers are so helpful and encouraging and the atmosphere within the gym is second to none. Highly recommend and would encourage people to come and see for themselves.

Pauline Muir 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I randomly chose AKR as a first tentative step in trying to get in shape as motivation and commitment were huge hurdles for me. That’s completely changed now. The positive, welcoming atmosphere the minute you enter distinguishes AKR from previous gyms and health clubs I’ve experienced. The experience at AKR is individualised - you’re far from just a number. The whole team behind AKR are extremely supportive, whilst the sociable vibe amongst members ensures I actually want to show up daily and really miss it if I can’t. This endorsement may seem OTT but if you take a trial you’ll understand. Thanks AKR

Katie Milne 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Truth be told when I happened across AKR in April 2019 I was not truly in the mindset to get into fitness. I had joined on a whim, believing this was something I would never really keep up. Fast-forward six months and I can honestly say that joining AKR was one of the best decisions I've made and is the best money I spend each month. I am more confident and much less stressed. My productivity and energy levels have increased and ultimately I'm feeling healthier, stronger and happier. AKR has taken something that previously felt like an obligation, exercise was a chore that I felt I should do yet rarely did, and turned it into a fun hobby that I love. This is in large part down to the stellar team that Mike has carefully selected to be part of the AKR team. The entire team is very knowledgeable, clearly passionate and a complete joy to see whenever you enter the gym. The exercise classes and group PT sessions are fun and dynamic. Each exercise is broken down into simple, manageable steps and tailored to suit you. The instructors are extremely attentive in offering instruction and guidance on how to get the best out of each exercise. Another aspect which sets AKR apart from other gyms is the other members. The moment you walk in the door you will notice how welcoming and friendly everyone is. There is a genuine team spirit at AKR which is nurtured by the monthly social events that AKR hosts. There is never any judgement. Only plenty of encouragement and a real sense of community. Everyone is on the same team and motivating each other to do better. This all coming from a girl who scoffed at the mere notion of ever attending a gym regularly let alone arriving for 6am each morning before work. This alone must say it all.

Fantastic experience: I cant recommend AKR Fitness highly enough. I have been a member for over a year now and enjoy both the small group personal training and the fitness classes. Mike, Lynsey and the Team are very friendly and offer support and encouragement as do the other gym members. My confidence has grown and I have learnt how to lift weights properly and safely. It is totally different from the big mainstream gyms where I felt too intimidated to use the free weight section. To anyone considering joining I would say go for it and take out a trial, it will be the best decision you make

Louise Gibson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: AKR is an amazing place and I urge everyone to try it. The staff are second to none and the encouragement and motivation they give you really makes you feel like you can achieve anything. So delighted to be a part of AKR and I recommend it to everyone of all ages and fitness levels!

Cameron Cummings 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: AKR is a brilliant gym, from the coach's obvious care and skill, the atmosphere (and laughter), through to the layout. Mike and his team set a great standard, I have little doubt that AKR is delivering by far the best small group personal training in Aberdeen!

Barbara Gorgoni 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I never liked gyms, to me they were just a necessary evil to become fit and lose weight, a chore. Until I joined AKR! This is a place that I genuinely look forward to go to. So much more than a gym, it's a community of people who all have different goals but share the journey. Whether you want to lose weight, get stronger or improve your marathon times, AKR will support you. The coaches are incredibly professional and will tailor their support, the other members will cheer you on and share your achievements. And it's so much fun to just turn up and have a laugh while all this is happening.

Val Cooper 4 years ago
