The Techout 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent personal training in Barnstaple. Trainers who really care and go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals. Private gym in Barnstaple that feels more personal. Highly recommended!

Dan Hawkins 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Before starting at absolute, I was always worried about what people would look at me and judge me whilst I train, but Ryan my personal trainer, has always made it easy for me and put no pressure on me. now training in absolute I'm the most confident I've ever been, and starting to see results.

Alan Mead 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Absolute 3 months ago feeling unsure of what to expect but now I can't recommend it highly enough. My experience has been tremendous. I feel much stronger and fitter (seems fair enough) and I genuinely look forward to each session. My PT Ryan is a pleasure to work with. He ensures that every session is different, challenging and designed to help me work towards my objectives, and when Ryan's he's not around, Jaime and Maddie are great PTs too. Love it!

Megan Delahaye-Webb 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot describe how much joining Absolute Training and Nutrition has benefitted me mentally and physically. The coaches provide personalised and effective workout plans which adapt as you progress, and change according to your goals. The team always greet clients with a smile on their faces, listen to your needs and provide endless amounts of support. If you are thinking of joining here… I would strongly advice it and I guarantee you will not look back!

Hayley marie Mutter 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I used to train with absolute years ago and always loved it, just recently in the last few weeks in joined back up and I'm so so happy to be back training with them ... I suffer really bad with anxiety so for me to feel comfortable somewhere is a struggle, but they are very welcoming, friendly and iv never felt more at ease walking into a gym ! I'm so happy I choose to go back with them and I know that I'm gonna smash my goals as they couldn't be anymore supportive if they tried, the trainers are amazing .... im so very happy to be back.

Fantastic experience: I started FF5 earlier this year completing the 5 week course. During that time I lost 5cm off my waist and have since moved onto the FF sustain plan where I'm continuing to drop my body fat %, get stronger, leaner and build confidence and change my mindset. All the coaches at Absolute have been friendly, helpful, motivating and always on hand to answer any questions I have!

Tristan Mingay 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolute has to be the place to go if you want to see results from your training, with great facilities but most of all a friendly and open approach to training from both staff and clients. I believe everyone at Absolute has the attitude to be welcoming and supportive. With the help from Jaime I'm getting the most from my time in the gym and seeing progress that I haven't seen for years, he has driven my programme to aid my previous sporting background and not only am I getting results; I'm enjoying the progress. I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking for 1to1 coaching that works.

Andrew Tucker 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been with them for years now. Great results. Down to earth coaching and, most importantly, education. Much, much more than just a gym.

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend this gym enough ! Years of trying many gyms and diets and never got to where I wanted to be . I have been with absolute for 6 months and still can't quite beleive how far I have come already ! The advice and support is incredible , a great group of people who really care about your goals! A cracking gym with a cracking team !!

Fantastic experience: My brother and I have been training here for 3 years and they have really helped with our bmx training giving great nutritional and training advice to help us improve and get better in the sport and with overall health and fitness :)

Leigh Lawson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Going from a manual job to an office job is always a challenge but I severely underestimated the long term physical affects office life would have on my body. After struggling with my back for the last 3 years and weekly chiropractor visits I was advised to go to Absolute by my old boss to build up some strength. 9 weeks ago I decided enough was enough and popped in and bumped into Wayne who showed me around the awesome gym whilst discussing my long term goals. This gym is awesome and Jaime, Chris and Maddie run the show like it’s their own and they’re no doubt the best PT’s in town. Jaime has put together a carefully targeted programme which specifically targets my problem areas along with a steer on the nutritional needs whilst training. 9 weeks in and I’ve not been to the Chiropractor once, Maddie has assisted a couple of times to relax troublesome areas and keep my need for treatment to a minimal. Obviously the result of all this hard work is a smaller waist, stronger body and an education in what the body needs and when it needs it. Thank you Team Absolute! ❤️

Deborah Love 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Brilliant staff who are supportive and encouraging in making sure you reach your goals. The gym is well equipped and not overly busy . It is welcoming if you are a bit shy or unsure of the gym environment. If you are looking for the complete coaching deal in North Devon then Absolute is where it's at!!

Daniel Meffe 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Started training with Chris six weeks ago online - My goal was to lose body fat while maintaining muscle mass …. I’ve lost 7kg in total with only 0.1% muscle loss to date - The workouts provided were far more manageable than my usual routine focusing mainly on compound movements and lasting a maximum of one hour - Chris has been a massive help holding me accountable with my nutrition and keeping me motivated to continue with my cut ….. I’m still able to eat foods I enjoy asking as I build it into my weekly calorie intake. I highly recommend Absolute Training and Nutrition if your looking to achieve your fitness goals …. They have gone above and beyond to help me providing training logs, weekly check in’s and 3D scanning to accurately track results

Dan Corlett 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Previously to joining Absolute i was a member of a 'turn up and exercise' style gym where you don't benefit from actual coaching, so my form wasn't right, nutrition wasn't right and i wasn't getting the results i wanted and quickly become disheartened. Since i joined Absolute a year ago i have worked closely with the coaches and completely changed my approach to exercise and diet and it has had a huge impact on my general fitness, strength, weight, body composition and overall lifestyle. I actually enjoy going to the gym now rather than it being a chore, and the groups and coaches at Absolute are all lovely and welcoming and there is good banter, but more importantly you get results. The Fit3D body scanner is brilliant as you can see your progress in a tangible way rather than just looking at overall weight on the scales, and i now better understand that there are a huge number of factors that affect your overall weight, so the scales don't always tell the truth! It has been a pleasure to be training there and i look forward to the year ahead.

Andrew Parish 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I joined absolute a year ago and have learnt and achieved so much in my time there. One of the best decisions I have ever made to join Absolute, Jaime Clark has taught me so much on how to move better and train better and showed me how important adding strength & conditioning and mobility into your routines can have a positive impact on all aspects of your training. Chris helped me loads with the nutrition side of it. Highly recommend :-)

Laura Matthewson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: The guys at absolute changed my life. From the moment I first walked through the door they have showed me nothing but support. It's far from any other gym I have been a member of. It's so much more than just a gym, it's a family. They really do care about your results. And with thier knowledge and support you can achieve great things!! Believe me reaching out to these guys will be the best thing you do.

Fantastic experience: Fab team. Great facilities

Ryan Woolacott 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training as a private client at absolute for almost 14months now. My body has dramatically changed in that time going from 22.5stone and 43% body fat down to 17.5stone and under 29% body fat. I have still have some distance to go in my journey but I wouldn't have come this far without the help of the coaches here . The facilities are great, the atmosphere is so friendly and warm, the coaches are never too busy to help and are always so generous with their time. There isn't another place like this in the area and they are worth every penny . Also the coffee ain't half bad either

vicky Ager 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had joined up to do the 21 day challenge and ive never looked back I throughly enjoyed my time that much that I have signed up for another 3 months, the atmosphere at Absolute Training and Nutrition is amazing the team down there are warm and friendly and nothing is to big of a problem for them they go above and beyond to help you to get the most out of you and achieve your goals, Aysha George has given me the confidence to start training again I look forward to my evenings down there. Im so happy that I found them xx

Ian hobbs 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: As a rule I don't like gyms. I find them intimidating which is why I've never enjoyed them or got good results. But that Absolute Team don't offer a normal gym experience. For me, being part of the Absolute Training and Nutrition experience is more than joining a gym. It's a lifestyle choice. They start by understanding what it is you want to achieve and then tailor your programme to help you achieve your goals, working out with you how you can best fit that into your lifestyle. They are enthusiasts, they are knowledgeable and they are very committed to helping you get results. But, they also leave you in no doubt that, whilst they will help and encourage you every step of the way, it is down to you to put in the work. I've been going to Absolute for over two years now and I can honestly say that, at nearly 58, I've never felt fitter or stronger. I sleep better, think more clearly, feel more balanced, am more relaxed and I've never felt as positive about my body shape as I do now. I joined the semi-private programme so go to the gym two evenings a week as part of a group. That works for me - I love the social context and have made a lot of fantastic friends, who are as important to me as the trainers - it is the combination that works for me. The training sessions are hard work but we laugh a lot too. Alongside the two sessions, we are given regular body assessments, a tailored nutrition plan and as much support and advice as we need - both during gym sessions and by phone/online. When you join Absolute you don't just get a gym programme, you have the chance to change. It's your choice how big a change you want to make and how hard you want to work to achieve it.

Fantastic experience: Really great staff and a great facility

Natalie Evans-Lee 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been attending semi private training at Absolute since December 2017. I 'ABSOLUTELY' love it!! The trainers are all great and I now feel like I know what I am doing in a gym rather than doing what I think is right and seeing no results!! They always ensure that you are using the equipment and weights correctly to achieve both the right outcome and prevent injury. The nutritional advice given is great and works wonders as long as you stick to it!! As well as the results / exercise side of the gym there is the fact that it is so friendly!! Everyone is lovely....trainers and clients alike!! There is a great sense of fun which I love. I find I really look forward to my sessions, not just for the exercise but for the great people I have met! I cannot recommend Absolute Training and Nutrition enough.............

All Over Social 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Absolute Training & Nutrition, Barnstaple enough. I walked into the studio in January 2017 on a mission to get myself in shape for our wedding in June 2017. I started as a semi private client and then a personal training client and the support and knowledge that I have received from all the coaches has been amazing. A year on, I have stuck with it, I am getting the results, I love working out in the sessions and on my own at this private studio! If you want results that last, just give the guys a call. You will not regret it!

Sophia Miller 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I took part in the 21 days for £21 and it rekindled my love of exercise. I went on to sign up to the 3 classes a week. I really enjoy it. It’s hard work but it’s great. Aysha is really good- all our sessions are varied. 2 months ago I’d have told you I hated the gym and I’d never do group exercise but joining absolute fitness has 100% changed that perception and now I look forward to going! Can’t recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: Whether you are looking for a short term fix or a complete lifestyle overhaul the staff at Absoloute can help you achieve whatever goals you set for yourself. Combined with their knowledge of nutrition and varied exercises to accommodate all of their clients, they provide you with the support, guidance and encouragement you need to get the results you want. Walking into a gym can sometimes be daunting, however at Absoloute, a consistent welcoming team will ensure you leave confident, knowing you are making the right changes towards a happier, healthier, stronger you!! Training in a fun, friendly atmosphere helps make reaching those goals all the more achievable. I do highly recommend it, after using Absolute for a long time I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brad Slade 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been with absolute training and nurtriton since Christmas I started with the 21 days for £21. I've not looked back. My body is changing shape and I'm feeling fitter,heathlier and stronger. I really wouldn't of managed to do this with out my fabulous coach Aysha George. Aysha is so supportive and is awesome at her job. Not forgetting the cracking group of people I workout with! We have a right laugh together.

Helen Elliott 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a sports massage by Gemma yesterday! Excellent experience, forgot how it felt to be without pain! I had sciatic pain for around 6-8 weeks and today I can honestly say I have no pain at all! Brilliant feeling! Thank you Gemma!

Sonia Mitchell 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Have been with Absolute since October 2017 and the support and encouragement I have received has been excellent. Nothing is too much trouble. They believed in me when I didn't believe in myself. I've achieved so much and have a much more positive outlook in exercising and nutrition. I've a bit more to do yet but know I will achieve it with these guys.

Candice Reed 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolute Training and Nutrition is 'Absolutely' AMAZING (excuse the pun)!! I've loved every minute at the gym and made some great friends along the way! The coaches have been there for every step even when I found it difficult to make it to the classes, and are all extremely approachable and friendly. This isn't your average gym where you go and do a couple of exercises on your own, each client is focused on even in the group sessions and you're pushed to the best of your ability. One of the best things too is that it's NOT intimidating to go here what so ever... being a woman, it can be hard to make yourself go to a gym surrounded by weights but at Absolute you feel like a little family! They have provided me with more than the basics to a healthy lifestyle which will have and already have had long term effects rather than providing quick fixes that can't be maintained. I have achieved confidence boosting transformations with Absolute and I can't thank you enough. You've made training and nutrition simple and not a chore to do sooo THANK YOU!!

Charlotte Macey 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with absolute for a year and half now, and I wouldn’t change it at all! Every trainer is always smiling and will go out of their way to say hi (which goes a long way today!) and always willing to answer any question. The gym itself looks awesome and the training is always changed up and not the same work out! These guys do actually know what they’re talking about, hence why the training is top notch and you actually get good results. I can’t recommend a better gym in North Devon!

Sarah Turner 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Joined in October 2017 as needed a push to sort myself out, great bunch of people Ayesha, Matt and the whole team are a fantastic support network and I would recommend them to anybody! Being a novice starter I have noticed a massive difference in myself. Long way to go but I know I can achieve it with these guys!

Rebecca Slade 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: These guy are fab!! At Christmas I was at my loss of how to start to make ME feel better about myself!! I wouldn’t even look at myself in the mirror I was horrified with my self! Until that day I signed up to absolute training 21 days for £21. Which I have just completed and now carrying on training with these guys! Yeap it took courage to walk though those door but I did and wouldn’t look back!! With the help and training I eat clean foods and I’m enjoying training!! I look forward to walking though those door to work out sweaty and stinky but hey I’m doing it for ME with the help and guidance from the team!! Xx

Emma Tucker 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have just taken part in the 21 day challenge and have now progressed in to the 12 week challenge! From day one the support from the guys was amazing and they provided plenty of advice/guidance on nutrition as well as the exercise side of things! Aysha is brilliant and mixes up each training session, which means it never gets boring! So far I am really seeing some progress which makes a lovely change! It's so much better than a standard gym, you are encouraged to work harder and have so much more support! Definitely recommend Absolute for anyone wanting to get fit, and change their lifestyle for the better!
