5 /5 Emily Decis: I’ve been going to this gym for the past 18 months, and it’s truly changed my life — physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way. From joining bootcamps, to building up the confidence to start running and completing my first 10km event, to trying weights and exercises I never would have attempted on my own — this place has motivated me every step of the way.
Most importantly, it’s had a huge impact on my mental health. I struggle with anxiety, but this is the one place where I feel completely at ease. This speaks volumes about how safe and comfortable people are made to feel here.
The people at Fitstop APW make it feel like a little gym family — supportive, fun, and genuinely encouraging. You know you love your gym when you get FOMO from missing a class (and 6am circle time).
Massive shoutout to Yvette and Tristan for creating such a welcoming, inclusive space. Tristan’s the face I see each morning. He’s become part coach, part therapist and part friend. Even though I give him a hard time about the workouts (because they’re tough but in a good way), he’s also someone I trust, can confide in, and who constantly encourages me to be better.
Couldn’t recommend this gym more. It’s a game-changer.
