What Our Members Say
Having not been to gym for 5 years I’d lost confidence and a lot of muscle and my mobility was declining. I started PT with Shane 6 weeks ago and the difference has been life changing. Shane is so incredibly knowledgeable and supportive and gives me the confidence to step outside my comfort zone. I have seen great results already and my mobility has already improved and my knee pain has disappeared. I am loving the gym. It’s such a friendly and inclusive place. I love it.
Body Ethics is a great gym. I have been coming here for PT sessions with Giulia, and she’s amazing! She’s very knowledgeable and has been really supportive and helpful with giving me that extra push I needed.I’ve genuinely enjoyed every session, not just the workouts, but also the positive environment she creates. She’s helped me build confidence, be more consistent, and make real progress. I can’t recommend her enough.
I’ve been a member of Body Ethics since it opened in 2019 and it’s honestly so much more than just a gym to me!I have a young son with autism who takes up all my time and being able to come here and feel safe, happy and positive means so much.Everyone’s really friendly, no judgement at all, and you can just come in, do your thing and not feel out of place.The trainers are really knowledgeable and always happy to help and give advice. It just makes it a really easy place to be.I really look forward to going, which says everything really. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

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.
Paul has been my personal trainer for four months and has listened to what I want to achieve by styling my workouts around my commitments that will give me the results I seek without over-stretching my capabilities. I have felt more energised and fitter and the monthly photos show how my body shape has improved in just a short time.
Great gym, the staff always greet you with a smile and can’t do enough for you and are always on hand if you need a bit of advice, weather it be with training or nutrition.
Paul is as genuine as it comes, he will support you in whatever your goals are and give the best advise to achieve said goals. He is also a absolute wizard in bjj and good luck with a roll. He will be kind but brutal. If that puts you off it shouldn't, lean into it.
Well-equipped gym with a wide range of equipment to suit different needs. Staff always friendly and happy to help. Nice atmosphere between customers and a motivating place to train.
Great gym with a wide variety of equipment and really friendly staff. Always a good atmosphere definitely recommend.
Brilliant gym with nice staff members and members, had Shane as a coach and he did a fantastic job. Would highly recommend this gym to people in the hitchin area as a great place to train with a good atmosphere
Great gym, staff are all friendly and really knowledgeable. Equipment is all in good order and clean.
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 :)

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’ve been with Body Ethics since May 2021and prior to 2020 the same gym but Peak Fitness as it was called then. Best gym in Hitchin by a million miles and I should know because I’ve tried them all. Professional staff, superb equipment, ultra clean facilities and above all else a very safe environment in which to exercise. Gyms are vital for mental health and general well being as well as the physical.
Love coming to Body Ethics for so many reasons. The team are so friendly, incredibly knowledgeable and the coaches provide expert guidance that helps me get the most out of my fitness journey.I love how there are two floors, with state-of-the-art equipment.What sets this gym apart is that it makes you feel like a second home as soon as you walk in.Highly recommend!
Shane is phenomenal, such great experience and passion for what he does - and Body Ethics is a great base, never crowded & equipment always available. Highly recommended!!
Giulia is an incredible personal trainer – confident, strong, and genuinely lovely to work with. From day one, she’s pushed me to go beyond what I thought I was capable of, always keeping me motivated and focused. Every session is challenging (in the best way!), and she really knows how to put you through your paces while still making it enjoyable. Her energy is infectious, and her support makes a huge difference. I’ve seen real progress thanks to her guidance and encouragement. Honestly, she’s the best, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

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.
Brilliant Gym! Highly recommend Body ethics. Shane and the team are very Polite, Knowledgeable and promote confidence throughout. The Gym is very up to date, clean and friendly place to be. You won't be disappointed. Wether your going for a personal training session or a workout with a friend, Body ethics is the place to be!!
Paul is an encouraging and supportive coach with a wealth of knowledge. He gently coaxes a little more out of every session. I went to him after a full knee replacement and he has returned my knee to a strength I would not have expected at the begining of our sessions. He adapted the training sessions to suit my needs every session. My balance is 100% improved. I will be back in a few months after my second knee is replaced. Thank you Paul!
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.
Paul is a living demonstration of his knowledge and competence in both personal training and BJJ instruction. With a patient and supportive approach, I would highly recommend his services.

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.
Love this place. Really friendly staff. Great equipment and a really good atmosphere.
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🙌
Great trainer, very knowledgeable and listens to what you want to work/improve on. Highly recommended!
Gym is well managed and always has equipment available so no waiting for ages. Equipment is decent and lots of weights for those that need extra. Gym is a friendly place all staff are very welcoming. Those who attend are equally friendly there is a good mix of men / women of all sizes and ages. I signed up to the transformation program for 12 weeks. Shane was my coach, he helps get the best out of you. Starts with a mobilisation assessment checking for mobility and any injuries. Shane does his very best so you don’t hurt yourself - very considerate. When you start Shane prepares workouts he has been flexible especially as I have young children and is not always easy to commit to advance dates/times. Not ideal for him but has moved my slots around. Shane not a coach who shouts he really makes you feel comfortable and gives constructive feedback. There is also an app which is great it monitors everything’s and gives you workout plan with videos. If you’re unsure I would say at least pop in a speak to Shane, he is not a sales man so doesn’t pressure you into anything. Give the mobilisation assessment a go… I highly recommend it.
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’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
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.

Love how all the gym members go out and socialise. Shane is great always answering my questions and very approachable..
