Bristol Kettlebell club

I have been a member of the Bristol Kettlebell Club now for over 2 and a half years, and it has been one of the best decisions I ever made. It can be quite daunting to start something new, but right from the start I felt welcomed and part of a team. Everyone in the club is so friendly and helpful, and both Pete and Sam are great instructors and personal trainers. They ensure that every class is different and fun, whilst also giving one to one advice on how to improve and progress with whatever personal goals you have. They also have really informative information about supporting your training with the correct nutrition and supplements.Over the past year I have been attending both kettlebell classes with the club and also ladies strength training and personal training and have found that this combination has taken my fitness to new levels. Kettlebells as a sport has changed my life. I've lost inches off my body, have great muscle definition and have made some great friends through the club.Above all, the Bristol Kettlebell Club is fun, and I actually now look forward to working out. I would wholeheartedly recommend the club to anyone who is looking for a fun, effective way to work out with like-minded people.

I have been training with Bristol Kettlebell club for about 18 months and it is the best move I ever made.Previously I have trained in various classes including spinning, circuits and another kettlebell class. I have always ended up either injured or seen no physical difference. As someone that also enjoys running I have found that since training here my pre existing knee problems have become much less too.The trainers Pete & Sam are extremely encouraging and provide the guidance to allow you to train correctly and progress through the weights.If you are looking to improve both your physical and mental wellbeing look no further. Bristol Kettlebell club provides group training sessions, one to one training and nutritional advice in an friendly and trusting environment.

I've been training with Bristol Kettlebell Club since November 2013 and can honestly say it's been the best thing I've ever done! Every session is varied, which keeps me interested & on my toes and I always feel challenged. Since November I've done a couple of fat loss challenges & have been very pleased with the results. The support I've had from our Kettlebell guru's, Pete & Sam, has been fantastic and incredibly informative.If you're a bit fed up of going to boring gyms & are looking for a complete body workout in a welcoming & friendly environment then look no further! Book yourself on to a beginners workshop and begin a life changing journey.

I attended the beginners workshop in November having had some kettlebell experience through crossfit. I learnt more in that morning workshop than the past year at crossfit.I have suffered from a shoulder injury for the past year but found that working with kettlebells has improved the injury greatly.I have really enjoyed the classes and the other club members are very friendly & supportive. Pete & Sam are very professional and great trainers and make the classes varied and enjoyable.I am also having some personal training with Pete which is great, he is very knowledgable and encouraging which means i am seeing great results in my weight loss, strength and overall fitness.I would not hesitate to recommend both the Kettlebell club and Pete's personal & nutritional coaching.

I started training with BKC 2 years ago and have never looked back. I have never been a fan of the gym and all those people watching themselves in the mirrors! Before beginning classes you have to go through the induction which takes the time to focus on technique, explaining the main exercises and giving clear instructions as to how to get to grips with it before starting classes.The classes are brilliant, a real mix of gender, ages and abilities and such a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Lots of support and encouragement, not just from Pete and Sam, but from all the other members of BKC too.Each class is different giving you a good workout without getting bored or being monotonous. Within the first 3 months of training I had lost over 2 stone and was feeling stronger and healthier.As well as the support at the classes Pete and Sam are also on hand for nutritional advice to ensure that your training is supported with the correct eating habits to get the results you want.The fact that I am still attending the classes after 2 years, still learning, still improving and getting stronger and fitter is a testament to the quality of the tuition that both Pete and Sam offer.I would recommend BKC to everyone and indeed have already done so to a number of my friends and family.Try it for yourself, you won't be disappointed!!

I have been training with Pete for a year and a half and I can honestly say it has completely transformed my attitude towards training and nutrition.The classes are always fun and varied but focused on making progress and are always a good mix of beginners through to the more advanced, which is very helpful especially when you are first starting out. The workouts can be easily tailored/adapted to your specific level.I have never once felt uncomfortable whilst training with Pete, whether it be a PT session, small group strength training or busy kettlebell class.Pete is always on hand to help and give advice so you get the most out of each class, I wouldn't trust anyone else to help me achieve my goals.

I joined Bristol Kettlebell Club a couple of years ago after doing one of Pete's Bootcamps and can honestly say it's the best thing I have ever done. I have always struggled with my weight and tried all sorts of diets and exercise! Since training with Kettlebells I have completely changed shape, have better muscle definition and lost over two stone and 3 dress sizes so far! I don't think this would have been possible without the fantastic knowledge and expertise from Pete and Sam, their classes are fab. They are varied and fun whilst working you hard. As you make progress by getting stronger and leaner, this really spurs you on plus the fact that people you train with are great too and I have made some great friends over the past couple of years through the club. Pete and Sam also have an amazing knowledge of nutrition too and the club run Fat Loss Competitions are a great way of really focussing on your nutrition but also trying out new recipes in a supportive and inspiring way!I would thoroughly recommend you bin the Gym and give Bristol Kettlebell Club a go, not only will you train with instructors who have expert knowledge, you will train in a supportive, varied and fun environment too. You will also meet some great people and really see some amazing results of course!

I have been training with BKC since November and really love it, its great fun and never boring and my strength and fitness is better than its ever been, my 10 k run times have improved and i feel so much stronger for it.The instructors Pete and Sam are fantastic trainers very approachable and offer great encouragement and support, I have just finished the January fat loss challenge and bagged myself £240 so I'm also richer than before I started.I also attend a ladies strength training class at Pete's personal gym and I am feeling the benefits of this, he is encouraging and also pushes you too your limits in a safe training environment.This is the best form of exercise i have ever done and the other club members are really friendly with no gym egos here, come and have a go and i promise you will never go back to a faceless gym again.

I started training with Bristol Kettlebell Club almost 5 years ago, following advice from a chiropractor to strengthen my core after suffering back pain for 15 years. I started with personal training sessions, tailored to my specific needs and within weeks I felt so much stronger and mobile. After a few months I joined small group training sessions and then joined classes which I still regularly attend. The physical and mental change has had a really positive impact on my confidence. I never thought exercise was an option for me, but with guidance from the instructors at Bristol Kettlebell Club, I have become stronger, healthier and no longer suffer with back pain. Classes are very friendly with a range of abilities and everyone is very encouraging. The instructors are always on hand to ask advice and make sure that all members are confident in their technique.
