It’s a Bank Holiday weekend and I’m sure we’re all hoping for good weather.

Just a little reminder that we will be open from 8.30am - 12.30pm on Bank Holiday Monday for those who fancy a workout.

Or if you prefer, there’s loads of free classes with Donna our founder for you to enjoy on your Members App if you’d like to maintain your Gymophobics workouts without visiting our gym.

A huge thank you to everyone who made our Dolly Day so much fun! 💕🤠

From the fabulous Dolly Parton inspired outfits to the singing, dancing and plenty of Dolly tunes, we had a fabulous time celebrating a truly wonderful life well lived in our gym — while also raising money for charity.

You all did Dolly proud! Dolly, we will always love you. 💕

DOLLY DAY 💕🎶

Tomorrow, we’ll be having a very special Dolly Day at Gymophobics Belper, celebrating the life of Dolly Parton, a truly inspirational lady who did so much for so many.

Of course, there’ll be plenty of Dolly music — from 9 to 5 and Jolene, to Islands in the Stream and all those songs that have made us smile, sing and occasionally attempt a Dolly-style performance!

We’d love you to join in too — wear something Dolly-inspired, add a touch of sparkle, bring along your best Dolly look… or simply come ready to sing along if you dare!

Most importantly, this is a day to remember and celebrate an incredible woman whose strength, kindness, talent and determination inspired generations.

And because Dolly has always been about giving back, any money raised on this special day will be donated to charity. ❤️

So let’s have some fun, make some noise, sing a few songs and raise a little money — Dolly style!

What's your favourite Dolly Parton song or film? - please share below in comments to help celebrate Dolly ❤️

RIP DOLLY PARTON 💗

Yesterday we said goodbye to a true icon.

Dolly Parton was so much more than a legendary singer and songwriter. She was a woman who built her own path, believed in herself, stayed true to who she was and used her success to lift others up.

Dolly showed generations of women that you can be strong and feminine, determined and compassionate, ambitious and kind. She never stopped believing in herself, even when the odds were against her.

Dolly's message of positivity, resilience and empowerment will live on, inspiring women to believe in themselves and each other.

Today, we celebrate an extraordinary woman who reminded us that you don't have to change who you are to achieve incredible things.

Strong women. Stronger together.

Rest peacefully, Dolly. Your legacy will continue to inspire women everywhere 💗💗

“I joined for the fitness… but I stayed because I found somewhere I truly belong.”

When women first walk through the doors of Gymophobics, they often come looking for a way to get fitter and healthier. What they discover is something much bigger.

⭐️A place where people know your name.

⭐️Where someone notices when you haven’t been in.

⭐️Where there’s always a friendly smile, a laugh between circuits and someone cheering you on.

It’s the encouragement on the days when motivation is low. The friendships that grow along the way. The little victories that everyone celebrates with you.

Because here, you’re never just a membership number. Whatever your age, shape, size or fitness level, you’ll be welcomed exactly as you are and supported every step of the way.

And yes, you’ll build strength, improve your fitness and feel healthier. But you may also discover something you didn’t realise you were looking for…..confidence, friendships and a community that makes you actually want to come back. 💗

That’s what makes Gymophobics different from normal gyms.

Come for the workout. Stay for the people. Leave feeling stronger in so many ways.

“Small changes, big results!”

A huge WELL DONE to our lovely member Angela, who has achieved some fantastic results over the past 4 weeks:

⬇️ BMI down 1.1%
⬇️ Body Fat down 0.6%
⬇️ Visceral Fat down 1 point
⬇️ Weight down 7 pounds! 🎉

But Angela’s progress isn’t just about the numbers. Every time she walks through the door, she brings the biggest smile, a positive attitude and such lovely energy with her.

She is a brilliant example of what can happen when you stay consistent, keep showing up and enjoy the journey.

Angela, you should be so proud of yourself — 4 weeks, 7 pounds down and absolutely smashing it!
Keep smiling, keep believing and keep going!

WELL DONE ANGELA! Love Sara and the Team xx

✨ SOPHIE’S AMAZING TRANSFORMATION! ✨

We absolutely love celebrating results like these, and Sophie is a fantastic example of why progress is about so much more than the number on the scales!

Just look at what Sophie has achieved:

⬇️ 11kg weight loss
⬇️ Body fat down by 13%
⬇️ Visceral fat down by 4 points
⬆️ Muscle mass increased
⬆️ Protein levels increased by 1.6kg
⬇️ Metabolic age down by an incredible 4 years!

And then there are the before and after photos…

The difference is fantastic! You can really see the changes in Sophie’s shape, waistline and overall body composition. She looks noticeably leaner and more defined, while still looking strong and healthy.

And that’s exactly what makes these results so special. Sophie hasn’t simply focused on losing weight. She has lost body fat, reduced visceral fat and increased her muscle mass, creating a genuine change in her body composition.

The photos show the transformation, but her Tanita Body Analysis results tell the full story.

Well done Sophie!

Your hard work, consistency and commitment have absolutely paid off, you should be incredibly proud of how far you’ve come! This is what progress looks like!

Love Sara and the Team. Xx

Strength isn't just about lifting weights...

It's about having the strength to live the life you want…

💗To carry the shopping without struggling.
💗To get up, move freely and keep doing the things you love.
💗To feel capable, strong and confident in your own body.

But strength isn't only physical.

✅It's the resilience to keep going when life gets tough.
✅The self-belief to challenge yourself.
✅The feeling of achievement when you do something you once thought you couldn't.

And very often, feeling physically stronger can help you feel stronger emotionally too.

Every 30 minute workout in our gym is an investment in your future stronger self, building stronger muscles, supporting your bones and helping you feel more capable, confident and resilient.

At Gymophobics, we're passionate about helping women become stronger from the inside out, not just for today, but for all the tomorrows still to come.

You don't have to be strong to start…..You become stronger because you started.
