“I was approaching 50, looked in the mirror and did not like what I saw, so I took action and built up the courage to approach Shane Raymond as I admired him for many years. Shane and I worked together in which he tailored a workout plan and diet for me – I still train with him at his gym, Body Ethics. It’s the best gym to build confidence – it’s like a big family gym as everyone is treated with respect and dignity. I lost over 10kgs and am now on the next level to achieve more.”

“Meet Monika. The 47 year mother of two was Finding herself just turning up to the gym and training whatever she felt like. After following this approach for some time, she became disheartened from not seeing any results, her motivation was low, so Monika decided to take ACTION and reach out for help. After establishing her goals and struggles, we introduced structure and accountability that she was severely lacking. With goals set, a structured training program and a custom nutrition guide, Monika had clarity for the first time. Monika has lost over a stone and a half and she is now in the best shape of her life, with new unrivalled confidence.”

“Meet Sam, a painter and decorator and father of two. Sam had spent most of his life dangerously overweight. Sadly after the death of his mother he made a promise to her that he would do something about his health. He made a promise on energy he couldn’t break. Sam’s mental health dramatically deteriorated and It was at that point Sam decided to take action on the promise he made, and reached out for help. During his consultation with one of our coaches Shane they put together a plan of action, aiming to slowly eliminate bad habits and introduce good ones, immediately.”

“I have always been overweight for as long as I can remember and although I went to the gym 3 to 4 times a week, I never really took it seriously or lost any weight. So I decided to invest in a personal trainer and its one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! I started training with Shane in March 2016 and in that time he has helped me lose over 6 stone. I always look forward to training with Shane; his sessions are challenging but always enjoyable. Shane is professional, dedicated, motivating, friendly and supportive. 7 years on Shane is still the best investment I made! He is still my coach, a good friend and now, I also have the pleasure of working with him as manager at his very own gym Body Ethics!”

“Stuck in constant limbo, never knowing whether to build muscle or lose body fat. Frustrated, lacking structure and going nowhere fast, his motivation was at a low. 6–7 Years of banging his head against a wall and not seeing the results he wanted Ryan decided to take ACTION and reach out for help early 2023. After consulting with him, we established that adding muscle to his frame was his main goal. But in order to add a significant amount of muscle to his frame, we needed to bring his body fat down first, while holding on to as much tissue as possible. Shifting his thought process to a get lean mindset, Ryan had clarity and new-found motivation.”

“Meet Karen. Karen was finding herself just turning up to the gym and training whatever she felt like. Skipping meals because she was unsure what to eat, because she was trying to lose weight, then becoming so hungry in the evenings, binge eating, and reaching for super high calorie food choices. Her motivation was at an all time low. After making little to no progress, Karen decided to take ACTION and reach out for help. After establishing her goals and struggles, we introduced structure and accountability that she was severely lacking. With goals set, a structured training program and a custom nutrition guide, Karen had clarity for the first time. Karen recently hit the 2 stone loss mark, and I’m excited for her to witness what she is truly capable of as we transition into the next phase.”

Excellent training facilities, with approachable, friendly & super knowledgeable trainers. This is the place to go in Hitchin if you're serious about achieving your health goals.
Paul is a fantastic personal trainer who has a wealth of knowledge across many disciplines such as martial arts, organic food and more. Couldn’t recommend higher, great holistic approach to health and fitness.
I have been training at Body Ethic for couple of years now, facilities are brilliant and all staffs extremely competent and friendly. I also started a training/nutrition journey with Shane about 2 months ago. What can I say, competence, availability and professionalism. Listens to your needs and creates a tailor-made path that allows you to express yourself at your best and which above all is sustainable over time. You will never feel anxious and listless about training, but it will simply be a pleasure to train. Highly recommended
Been a member of Body Ethics since its opening, and having tried pretty much every other gym in the area its safe to say I've found my home. Great gym with all the equipment you need, always clean and uncluttered. All the staff are top people, super friendly, knowledgeable and always happy to help and give advice/assistance. Great job by Shane and his excellent team on building this place up and setting the industry standard!
Been training at here since it opened. I've trained in many gyms but I find this gym the best for my needs. Friendly staff good equipment.
I have trained here since its birth and loved every session! I owe BODY ETHICS and it’s helpful staff for the physique I’ve attained.
I really appreciate the way Paul understood my own goals, accepted my own levels of fitness, and set about improving and pushing them! He always encourages and supports you to go the extra, and I find myself doing more than I thought I was capable of - certainly more than I would have done on my own. Paul is very knowledgeable, inspiring and a great guy. Highly recommended!
This a great gym. Plenty of different equipment to use and to veary your workout. Staff are also friendly and very helpful. I found this gym to be more my style and a great atmosphere. Well worth a tour and try if your looking to progress and work on achievable goals
Body ethics is the best gym in Hitchin to achieve your fitness goals! An amazing place to workout with professional trainers and staff who will support you through your firness journey! Great equipment and facilities too. Completely satisfied with the service and would highly recommend!
Staff are amazing and the gym is always spotless. Definitely recommend people to come here if they’re looking for a divested and inclusive gym to work out in ⭐️
Paul has been a first class PT from the very start. Super knowledgeable and has helped me to totally transform my life. Highly recommended!
Body Ethics Gym has honestly made a huge difference to me. I struggled quite badly with anxiety, and walking into a gym used to feel overwhelming—but coming here has helped me overcome that and build real confidence in myself. The staff are genuinely supportive, the atmosphere is welcoming, and you never feel judged. It’s more than just a gym, it’s a place that’s helped me mentally as well as physically.
I’ve been with Paul for around 2 months now and I can honestly say he has gave me a completely different perspective on my training. Paul sat me down and asked what I wanted, and he orientated my training to best suit my needs, maximise gains and to smash my targets
Great Gym! Friendly Staff, 100% have a look at the PT programmes and Classes! Something for every ability!
Wanted to join a gym but knew I would go once or twice and then make excuses not to go. Lots of internet hunting later I found Paul and met him at my local gym. Started training with him at 14 weeks post baby and the support and encouragement from Paul has been amazing. Fast forward three months and I feel like a different person. I am eating so much better, have more energy, I’m sleeping better and I am more focused. I am so much stronger and couldn’t be prouder of my transformation photos. I highly recommend Paul, he is kind, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about you reaching your goals. Couldn’t have done it without him.
Quality gym,run by Shane and Co who know what it's all about. Well equipped,.
I’ve spent years trying different gyms, but I always ended up quitting because they made me feel so anxious and uncomfortable. Body Ethics is the first place where I’ve actually felt at ease. All the coaches are brilliant, they’re friendly, really know their stuff, and there’s no intimidation factor. I can’t recommend this place enough!
I’ve had a really positive experience at this gym, I am really enjoying it, From the moment you walk in the atmosphere feels welcoming and motivating rather than intimidating, which makes a huge difference whether you’re a beginner or more experienced.The staff are friendly, approachable, and always willing to help if you have questions about equipment or workouts. I’d definitely recommend body ethics gym
Parents have just moved to Hitchin and I visit them from Amsterdam. I needed a gym with all the right equipment and could easily park. Great gym with all the equipment you need (the Watson stuff is particularly cool) and the staff are really friendly too.4 min from my parents house, easily my gym of choice when I'm over.Pre workout / post session protein shakes are all fairly priced too and the place is incredibly clean.5 stats for everyone that works there. Cheers!
Premium quality gym. Plenty of equipment which is all clean and well maintained. Huge functional fitness area. The team are really friendly and gives off family vibes.
I highly recommend Body Ethics! My trainer is Guilia, She is an amazing personal trainer who is incredibly supportive and motivating. From the start, she made me feel comfortable while still pushing me to challenge myself and stay focused on my goals.Guilia always brings great energy to every session and genuinely cares about helping her clients improve. She takes the time to guide me through each exercise, making sure my form is right and encouraging me to push a little further every time.Thanks to her support and motivation, I feel stronger, more confident, and much more committed to my fitness journey. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares about your progress and helps push you towards your goals, I definitely recommend Guilia at Body Ethics and to add body ethics is one of the best gym in gym I love the vibe and community at body ethics.
If you're a woman who's trying to get into the gym and find all the exercise machines, dumbbells etc a little overwhelming, Giulia is your gal! I went from not knowing anything about gym equipment and exercises to exercising consistently 4 times a week!
Paul is a very nice guy ☺️ always supportive and very helpful he has a lot of knowledge in what he does. I highly recommend him as a trainer, his classes are always fun. I really like training with Paul🙌
I really enjoy going to the gym here, the owner and all PT's are super friendly and it's a great environment to work hard
Highly recommend Paul as a personal trainer. Great all round knowledge of nutrition, fitness and gym technique, with a down to earth and pragmatic approach. I'm a 48 year old guy and have always been relatively active, but engaged Paul's help when I discovered my visceral fat was very high. Following Paul's advice and plan 4 months later I've lost 8.5kg of fat and gained 2.5kg of muscle and smashed most of my targets. Thanks Paul 👍
Love this place. Really friendly staff. Great equipment and a really good atmosphere.
Paul is a lovely guy, very knowledgeable, encouraging and patient. His sessions are fun and very productive.
If I could give Body ethnic A 10 star rating I would the staff are so welcoming And professional and helpful The establishment itself is very impressive with all the classes and sessions it’s amazing and they really do make you feel like family :)
I’ve had lots of PT sessions with Paul training BJJ and Nogi. He’s a fantastic trainer and makes every session enjoyable. It’s super easier to learn from Paul.
Been with a few other PT's and the sessions with Paul have been most enjoyable. I have learnt so much not only in my training but primarily health and nutrition where he his knowledge cannot be faulted. A very big advocate of Organic nutrition and shares a wealth of detail of his personal nutrition.Thanks again Paul
I joined Body Ethics in February and it’s been fantastic, the best gym I’ve been to with a great atmosphere. Lovely staff, great equipment and coaching programs to fit everyone’s needs.
Amazing gym. Everyone is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. The gym is clean and tidy and has a good variety of equipment
Paul has coached me for the last 2 years he is a fantastic personal trainer
Great gym with a wide variety of equipment and really friendly staff. Always a good atmosphere definitely recommend.
I’ve been training with Paul for 4 month - he’s a great guy and I can highly recommend him. I’m confident pushing hard in our workouts because of his strict emphasis on form and injury prevention. He’s tailored the workouts as I’ve learned which exercises I prefer, so maintaining motivation has been easy.
I absolutely love Body Ethics. Being a 60 year old woman, the thought of walking into a gym and starting my fitness journey was daunting, but I soon realised with the help from Shane, it’s the best thing I have ever done, just wished I’d done it years ago! It’s not a cliche, everyone is really friendly and helpful there. Would highly recommend.

Highly recommend body ethics 🙌 this gym is very friendly! everyone is so nice. Soon as I started I was comfortable going on my own, if you ever need help someone is always there. I had Giulia as my PT for 5 month she was amazing got me seeing results made my gym sessions enjoyable always happy and pushed you that little bit more. Love how all the gym members go out and socialise. Shane is great always answering my questions and very approachable..
