Ned Pankhurst 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been training on and off for years. But haven't been consistent enough and even when I am, I kept injuring myself. BFT has been transformational for me. The whole BFT team is great, they really do care, they take time to make sure you're doing things the right way and getting the most out of it. It gives you the benefit of a personal trainer without the price tag. The workouts are designed so well, that I can go 6 days a week and don't feel like I'm overloading myself. I also don't have to spend any time researching and planning out what to do and when to do it, which is perfect for my life that's dominated by work and kids. Highly recommend for anyone at any fitness level.

Greg Kitchen 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: At BFT Cheltenham, the team coach on technique first. Then they aren’t afraid to give you a nudge so you’re maximising what you can achieve out of each session. A wide variety of classes across strength, cardio and hybrid where you’re working in heart rate zones tailored by age (I am over 50). Since joining earlier this year I’ve found a group of people I like hanging out with at 5am. A group where everyone is genuinely supportive and helps one another.

Terry Georgiou 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have attended 25 sessions in the last month which have been excellent. I find that the the trainers are motivational, knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. Some are even funny. The progressive programming over 8 week blocks along with heart rate monitors requiring you to stay in the relevant heart rate zones are big pluses for me. Also the strength work is really prominent in the sessions and I already feel my strength building. I am looking forward to continuing my fitness journey with BFT and hopefully enter the next 8 week challenge starting in June. I will also add that the head coach has been nothing but helpful so far. Thank you.

Trisha Yeo 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Week 5 @BFT Cheltenham and I'm having so much fun. I haven't been working out consistently for over 4 years and it hasn't been easy. But Lee and the team makes it fun and engaging. Every day is a different workout, everything is set up, just turn up and train with like minded people. You set your own pace and if needed, you'll have alternative exercises provided to suit your ability. I highly recommend it as a great way to get fit and have fun at the same time!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love working out at BFT Cheltenham. Lee and the other trainers are amazing… super supportive and encouraging but they will push you when you need it too. It’s a great atmosphere and definitely beats those boring workouts you do on your own at a gym, waiting for equipment to free up. It has become an enjoyable part of my weekly routine and I have met some great people along the way! Highly recommend!!!!

Suzie McCarthy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been at BFT Chelt for 4 weeks and really impressed at the variety of workouts (no chance for boredom!) such a great mix between cardio and strength. I set out to only do strength classes but now I’m finding the cardio sessions are my favourite who would’ve thought! The BFT Heart rate monitor system adds a huge motivational aspect as you move to hit your target coloured HR zone. It’s not just a novelty it’s really useful to know when to push yourself and when to rest. Lee and his coaching team are incredibly welcoming and it’s a very down to earth vibe where everyone encourages each other. If you’re in two minds and feeling unsure if this is for you please give it a go. I opted for the 1 week trial, but ended up signing up by day 4! It only took 3-4 sessions to feel more comfortable after a long break from my last gym. It hasn’t taken long to build my fitness back up. The Cheltenham team and members are lovely, super welcoming vibe! ⭐️

Fantastic experience: BFT, Chelthanham was recommended by my colleagues in the office. When I first started there, I knew nothing about this kind of physical training. I now adore it. Excellently organised training sessions, incredibly inspiring and highly engaging instructors, and a fantastic atmosphere due to the outstanding group of people. They run several sessions throughout the day, so there's a lot of flexibility. To anyone searching for a serious yet enjoyable workout, I highly recommend BFT, Chelthanham.

Anthony Di Giorgio 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: After much research I joined BFT Cheltenham in January 2023. It was right before the start of one of there 8 Week Programs. I met Lee who was kind enough to show me around and give me a thorough rundown on how things worked. My fitness Journey kicked off that weekend and I have never looked back. I am so glad that I started there. Lee and his team of Trainers are very qualified and amazing at what they do. Help is always on hand when you need it and if there is ever a doubt on your form or technique during the classes, one of the trainers is there to lend a hand. During the cardio classes they too are on hand to push you through. It’s a great community where everyone is friendly and welcoming. I cannot recommend BFT Cheltenham enough. It has become very much a part of my daily routine to attend a class everyday. Once you join you will understand why.

Rhiannon Stark 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was apprehensive about joining BFT as I have always heard group fitness isn’t the way to go. After hearing my sister rave about her experience at BFT I finally caved and joined. I love it! The atmosphere is amazing, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. I’m learning new things and have noticed a huge difference in my attitude towards training. The trainers know exactly what they’re doing and are there to help and ensure your form is on point! It doesn’t feel like group fitness, it’s more like a PT session with your friends. Lee & team are incredible and always pushing me to achieve. Every session feels like progress I’m now a BFT girl for life

Sophie Argiriou 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love working out at BFT Cheltenham! After my previous F45 studio closed down, I was worried that I wouldn’t find a replacement that matched its level of intensity and quality. However, BFT has completely exceeded my expectations. First of all, Coach Lee and his team are absolutely amazing! They are knowledgeable, supportive and always willing to help me to make sure I’m performing exercises correctly. Not only do they make exercising fun, they always motivate me to push harder – I appreciate that they take the time to get to know your workout goals, strengths and weaknesses with regular check-ins. The studio itself is spacious, well-equipped and always impeccably clean and I’ve been impressed by the variety of classes offered. One of the things I appreciate the most about BFT Cheltenham is the sense of community that they cultivate. They are all about uplifting each other, pushing one another outside of our comfort zones and celebrating each other’s progress. It’s a great group of people to work out with every day. Overall, I am truly grateful to have found BFT Cheltenham and highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch fitness studio. Sophie

Fantastic experience: I joined BFT after my local f45 studio closed down. I was anxious starting a new gym, however I felt welcomed even before I started by Lee and the team, by giving me encouragement and support beforehand. It took me a few sessions to find my groove but it’s been amazing! Lee and the trainers are super supportive, welcoming and genuinely care about you and reaching your goals. The studio is very cosy yet spacious, with heaps of parking. I’m glad to have quickly found a comfortable yet motivating place to keep up with my goals. Thanks so much BFT Cheltenham, you are the best!

Fantastic experience: I can’t talk highly enough about BFT Cheltenham! I have been in gyms previously and never felt at home like I do at BFT Cheltenham. Lee and the team have been welcoming right from the moment I walked in for a trial. They are a team who motivate you but also educate you on having the right form and ensure that you are lifting right to avoid injuries which I really appreciate. The classes are always different and challenging which I love and being there for over 5 months I feel the fittest I have ever been and look forward to attending everyday! The people who I train with are all friendly, fun and non judgemental and that has led me to keep going everyday and feel held accountable. Thanks BFT Cheltenham for all you’ve done for me physically and mentally.

Findlay Ferguson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always hated the idea of group classes and going to gym to exercise, but these guys have completely changed my view on that. The program is designed brilliantly so you just rock up and smash out the session without thinking, and the targets are designed for you specifically. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and it has helped me to lose a bunch of weight and work towards a well rounded level of fitness.

Fantastic experience: I love BFT - the structure, format and equipment is top class. I've trained and taught at many gyms in my time, and I'd rate BFT as the best I've experienced. Much thought has gone into end user experience, and even the simplicity of the booking app makes me smile. Greeted every morn by the incredible team at Cheltenham, professional yet personable- what a way to start the day! If I'm lucky, I'll catch Ra grooving to the beats through the class which takes my mind off the the assault bike for just a moment ;)

Fantastic experience: In the past, I have found it difficult to stick with a gym / fitness routine- life often gets in the way and it's easy to neglect. BFT Cheltenham takes all the guess work and pressure out of maintaining a solid and tough workout! The programs work to increase cardio fitness and strength through increasing stages over the weeks, and in-house challenges help motivation when waking to a cold Melbourne morning. I have found the coaches to be friendly, knowledgeable and motivating, yet take into consideration limitations and /or injuries which I think is just as important, if not more so. The members are friendly and welcoming- everyone is encouraged by one another along the way. Overall, I've found the environment to be non-confrontational or judgmental which I think is a huge plus for those who have not stuck to a regular fitness regime in the past. *****

Fantastic experience: Bodyfit Cheltenham is my home away from home, my happy place! The trainers are so attentive, super fun and quite frankly, if they can work with my poor coordinator and bad jokes, anyone can do this! They never miss a beat and know exactly how to get the most out of you - the results iv seen in just 3 months are remarkable! The scanners there are on a whole different level keeping me on track, and teach you its more than just a number on the scale. I never thought I'd be a morning person, but now genuinely get FOMO when I miss a class, BFT Cheltenham keep up the good work and thankyou for your patience with me!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at numerous gyms and am an F45 convert to BFT. BFT is more focused on strength and technique in my opinion. Not only this but being a BFT member means after a month at one gym you can then go to other BFTs. Saying that, I have visited numerous gyms due to work and travel and can say that the management, members and space at Cheltenham is by far one of my favourites. Ra is approachable, knowledgeable and friendly and makes the whole experience so enjoyable, you will actually end up loving the gym which I never thought I’d say. 5 stars highly recommend.

The other members are super friendly and easy to get along with. Cliquey? I Don’t know her! My absolute happy place if I could give 10 stars I would!
