Real World Fitness is based just over the river in Colwick, only a few minutes from Lady Bay by car, and shortly even easier to walk/cycle with the new bridge about to open, and offers something very different from the typical chain gym experience.

What Clients Say

“I had previously had personal training at David Lloyd in West Bridgford, but I can only train in the evenings and it was impossible to stick to a proper routine because it’s busy at that time. RWF is much quieter and I get to stick to a plan now and not have to change it every week”
James, Lady Bay

“I’d thought that getting to Colwick was going to be a pain, but my friend trained at RWF and took me along – it didn’t take any longer than getting across Bridgford to my old gym, and I’ve joined now as well as starting personal training with Joe”
Lana, Lady Bay
