Happy Birthday, Route 1 Fitness! 🎉🩵

Another year of coaching, community, laughs, progress, hard work and plenty of strong people 💪🦩

Route 1 has always been about so much more than just turning up to a gym.

It’s about personal support.
It’s about coaches who know you.
It’s about training that’s built around you.
And it’s about being part of a community that genuinely wants to see you do well 🤝✨

We’re incredibly proud of the warm, welcoming space Route 1 has become, and so grateful to every single person who has trained with us, supported us, recommended us, laughed with us and helped make the gym what it is today.

Here’s to another year of getting stronger, feeling better and doing it together 🏋️‍♀️🥳

Not another thing on your to-do list 📝

We know exercise can start to feel like one more thing you “should” be doing.

Especially when school is back, work is busy, and everyone needs something from you.

At Route 1, we don’t want training to feel like a punishment or another pressure.

Our semi-private sessions are here to make movement feel supported, structured and achievable 🩵

You’ll have your own programme, so your training is tailored to you. You’ll train alongside others, so you get warmth, connection and encouragement. And you’ll always have a coach present to guide you through the session, check your form and help you feel confident 🏋️‍♀️😊

It’s fitness that fits into real life.

Our latest blog talks about the impact the back-to-school season can have on parents’ wellbeing — and how small, consistent habits can help you feel more grounded.

One of the biggest reasons people struggle with the gym? They feel like they have to figure it all out by themselves. At Route 1, you don’t 🩵

In our semi-private training sessions, you have your own plan to follow, a coach in the room to support you, and a friendly community around you who understand what it’s like to start, restart, or keep going.

You’ll be guided through your training, encouraged when confidence dips, and celebrated when those little wins start adding up 🎉💪

Because progress feels better when you feel connected, cared for, and supported.

Training that feels warm, even when the weather isn’t 🌧️

The weather might be getting colder, but your gym environment doesn’t have to feel cold too.

At Route 1, we’ve created a space that feels welcoming, personal and supportive from the moment you walk in 🩵

In our semi-private sessions, you’ll follow your own programme while training alongside others in a friendly, encouraging environment.

Your coach is there to guide your technique, support your progress, adjust exercises when needed and make sure you never feel unsure about what to do next 🏋️‍♀️👀

It’s structured training with real warmth behind it.

Because fitness works better when you feel cared for.

Back to school, back to you 🍎

The school routine is back. Packed lunches, earlier mornings, work, homework, clubs, drop-offs, pick-ups… and somewhere in the middle of it all, you’re supposed to look after yourself too 😅

That’s exactly why semi-private training at Route 1 works so well for busy parents.

You follow your own personalised programme, designed around your goals and starting point, but you train alongside others with a coach present to guide, support and keep you on track 🏋️‍♀️🤝

No guessing what to do.
No pressure to keep up with anyone else.
No feeling lost in a busy gym.

Just structured training, personal coaching and a warm community that helps you make your health part of your routine again 🩵

We’ve also shared more on the blog about how the back-to-school season can affect your mental and physical health as a parent — and why small, realistic routines matter.

Banton joins Rob Kingsbury on the podcast 🎙️🩵

Anna recently joined Rob Kingsbury on his podcast, which is aimed at people over 60 who want to live their best lives. During the conversation, Anna shared a little bit about her own journey, what led her to Route 1 Fitness, and the kind of clients the team work with every day.

She also spoke about some of the common issues we often see in over 60s - from confidence and mobility to strength, balance, routine and feeling unsure about where to start 💪🌿

A big part of the conversation was around the importance of strength training as we age, and why building strength can make such a difference to how we move, feel and live day to day.

At Route 1, we believe training should feel supportive, personal and achievable at every age. You are never too old to start, and you do not have to figure it all out on your own 🫶

Anna may be joining Rob again in the future, so watch this space.

Your routine matters too 🩵

When the kids go back to school, it can feel like the whole house runs on a timetable again, but where do you fit into that timetable?

At Route 1, our semi-private training sessions are designed to help you build fitness into real life - not some perfect version of life where nothing ever goes wrong 📆☕️

You’ll have your own programme to follow, based on your goals, body and ability. You’ll train alongside others, but you won’t all be doing the same thing. A coach is there throughout to guide technique, adjust exercises and support everyone properly 💪👀

It’s personal.
It’s structured.
It’s friendly.
And it helps you stop putting yourself at the bottom of the list.

Our latest blog looks at the back-to-school season and how it can impact parents physically and mentally — from stress and tiredness to routine, movement and confidence.
