Let me tell you how RB5 started—because it wasn’t just a business idea; it was a mission.
Years ago, I was working in one of those big corporate gyms. You know the type—packed with members, focused on sales targets, and full of so-called “personal trainers” who barely cared if their clients got results. I watched people come in full of hope, only to be left wandering around, confused, unmotivated, and getting nowhere.
And honestly? I’d had enough.
Fitness should be about more than just signing up for a membership and being left to figure it all out on your own. It should be about coaching, support, and real transformation. So, I quit.
I walked away from the corporate gym world and built RB5 Personal Training—a place where people don’t just train, they achieve. Where coaching actually means something, where every member gets real support, and where results speak louder than empty promises.
Fast forward to today, and RB5 has grown into Nottingham’s #1 personal training gym. We’ve helped hundreds of people break through plateaus, build confidence, and finally get the results they deserve. And we’re just getting started.
If you’re fed up with gyms that take your money but don’t take care of you, come see the difference for yourself.
