What clients have to say about Gymbo’s

Gymbo's provides a relaxed and private space to workout in, almost like being in the comfort of your own home. The wide range of state of the art equipment means that you can get a full work out without ever having to queue for a machine and safe in the knowledge that there really isn't anyone looking at you!

Emma Nicol – HR Advisor

At Gymbo’s I feel that I can achieve far more than in a crowded gym. There is never any need to wait for any equipment or weights, so there is no wasted time in any session. Plus, the general atmosphere is great to just focus in on my own goals. The equipment is all brand new and top quality, and the whole place is far cleaner and fresher than any gym I ever seen in the Cambridge area.

Thomas O’ Connor – Dentist Surgeon

Gymbo's high quality and range of equipment is enabling us to work on all our fitness goals, in spacious and private surroundings, so it feels like we are in our own personal gym. The flexibility of being able to work out in the evenings means we can work our fitness schedule around our busy working lives.

What clients have to say about James Rivers

James played a critical role in my rapid and painless weight loss (19.5 kg / 3 stone in 12 weeks), thanks to his dietary advice and carefully tailored exercise programme. He’s a conscientious and thoughtful trainer who’s also good company. I’d strongly recommend him – especially if you have doubts about what you can truly achieve.

Alex Sutherland - Author / Writer

I had been a bit sceptical about personal trainers after spending quite a lot of money on one at a prestigious Nationwide Health Club, only to then spend more getting put right at the osteopath. The trainer simply did not listen to my needs or train me at a pace that was suitable for me. So I was absolutely delighted to discover James, who not only listens to your needs but also makes sure you enjoy your work out. He took me through a very varied routine so nothing was ever a slog.

Caroline Biggs – Founder of Women’s Group ‘Simply Social'

I found James really enthusiastic and helpful from the start. He took the time to listen to find out what I wanted to achieve and was able to give me a very realistic programme to suit me, rather than imposing a one size fits all routine. His approach has been very encouraging and motivating; he definitely manages to help me achieve a lot more than I could ever manage on my own. One thing I have particularly noticed since I started training with James is a huge increase in my general energy levels, and in the quality of my sleep. Plus, with the nutritional guidance, my eating pattern has really improved.

Thomas O’ Connor – Dentist Surgeon

James' positive manner always puts me at my ease, even when I'm feeling daunted by the task ahead! With a wide variety of exercises, the programme is always fresh and challenging and his enthusiastic and friendly approach ensures he will always get the best out of you, so you can be confident of reaching your goals.

Emma Nicol – HR Advisor

I felt more toned after just 4 weeks and the programmes that James devised were good in that they incorporated exercises which I never would have used otherwise but mostly can continue to do on my own during the rest of the week. Useful lessons learned certainly. I really enjoyed the boxing too which was brilliant for releasing post-office tension!

What clients have to say about 2 Person Training

Our 2-on-one sessions make personal training cost effective. Our well organized personal programs enable us to work on our own individual goals, have one-on-one time with the trainer, whilst at the same time. Being able to work out together, so we can spend quality time as a couple, encouraging the other person and add an element of competitiveness.
