VICKY PEACOCK
"I 100% recommend Average Joe's to everyone looking for a new place to train. There’s no egos, everyone really supports each other and it’s such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere where you can work at your own pace with loads of encouragement."
DAVID MURRAY
"Been going to Average Joe's since it opened in 2015, I now go 5-6 times a week and my strength/fitness is probably the best it’s been in my life (and I’m 53 years old!). I'd highly recommend this gym if you want to keep fit and stay fit."
AILEEN MARRON
"Friendly, beyond helpful, fun and the only gym I've ever maintained a presence at! Average Joe's is a real close community of just really good people! The team are amazing and are always a message away if you are needing some advice."
TINA LIDLE
"This is a fantastic gym, very welcoming and for all abilities. I’ve tried lots of other gyms in the past and always felt conscious or out of my depth as I was a complete novice lifting weights. But not here! Gutted I didn’t join Average Joe's sooner."
DAN HEGARTY
"I started training here in preparation for my wedding nearly 3 years ago, I’ve continued to come since getting married as I love the community feel! The workouts are always different and the coaches are knowledgeable and enthusiastic."
ED FRANKLAND
"As someone who has never been very good at the gym and never really felt comfortable at one, I plucked up the courage to join 8 months ago and haven’t looked back. The coaches are so knowledgeable and everyone is really nice. Absolutely no judgement or egos."
KERRY LAWS
"Excellent place to train, can’t recommend it enough. Joe has supported me to initially lose weight and now to train right through until 31 weeks pregnant. Joe’s knowledge and enthusiasm is exactly what I need and what keeps me coming back."
