The Training Gyms opened in 2009, originally named The DVCC. Over the years, we have made many improvements to the gym and our overall facility. Starting with a gym in Bedford, our focus on providing a high-level personal training experience led to the opening of Training gyms in Milton Keynes (2012), Northampton (2014), Hitchin, and St Albans (both in 2017).

The majority of our clients over the years have been over the age of 40 (or have felt the same challenges as people over 40). Many find that big-box gyms or those run by people who don’t understand their needs are not comfortable or safe places for them to exercise.

As a result, we have specialised in fitness after 40.

You may be like many of our clients who are looking for a different kind of gym experience.

Today, we offer small-group personal training, one-on-one training, and large-group training as an option for the days in between personal training sessions.

While our clients have a variety of goals and reasons for coming to the gym, at the heart of what they seek is a more personalised and individualised level of support.

They also want the reassurance that they can achieve the results they desire—regardless of their age or starting point in fitness—in a safe and positive environment.

There are no mirrors, no judgement, and no lycra-clad young people making you feel like you don’t belong. You will be surrounded by people just like you—people who, even if they don’t now, have once felt the same way as you. We insist on fostering a positive and supportive environment.

Finally, we are about more than just getting you results. We invest a tremendous amount of time and money into training our coaches and team members to help every client succeed in achieving their fitness goals.

We are The Training Gyms—the area’s only specialists in fitness after 40.

We offer a six-week Private Coaching Experience for only £247. We start at your level. We go slow at your pace….but we get you the results you are wanting to achieve so that you can know that there is a gym that understands your unique needs, that helps and supports you in a friendly private setting.
