When I was at my lowest ebb and struggling with my weight I discovered Body Ethics.. From the start the staff at Body Ethics have been amazing they have guided me through my personal goals and praised all my achievements., small group personal training has the advantage of motivating you from your peers and the coach. In a group, there is often more energy and maybe even some healthy competitiveness. Human nature dictates that you are more inclined to put out an all-out effort if the person sitting next to you is. Members are coached by their trainer individually and support is given throughout the whole session to make sure perfect form and appropriate weights are being used for the given exercises.! if I could give 10 stars would
Love this gymmm🤩 especially Lisa!! Thanks for always looking after me 🖤

Quality gym,run by Shane and Co who know what it's all about. Well equipped,.
Paul has been my Jui Jitsu PT for several months now. He’s diligence and meticulous approach to teaching, combined with he’s knowledge/good nature/patience and clear instructions when explaining complex movements is second to none. I can’t recommend Paul highly enough. 5 stars!
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!
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 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.
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.
Awesome environment, passionate staff and friendly environment. The equipment is fantastic, huge range of professional PT's who specialise in unique fitness goals and classes. Can't recommend enough!
I joined Body Ethics Gym last year, and I have to say, it’s been a transformative experience. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the clean, well-equipped facility and the welcoming atmosphere. The gym offers a wide range of modern equipment and a variety of classes that cater to all fitness levels.One of the standout features of Body Ethics is Coach Shane. His expertise and passion for fitness are evident in every session. Shane’s approach is personalized and encouraging, making each workout both challenging and enjoyable. He takes the time to understand each member’s goals and tailors his coaching to help them achieve their best.
Great trainer, very knowledgeable and listens to what you want to work/improve on. Highly recommended!
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
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.
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!!
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.
Great gym! Kind staff and very welcoming. Well organised and extremely clean environment to be in. Would highly recommend joining 10/10 👍
I'm not a regular gym person - I tend to exercise outdoors - however I wanted a focused 3 month 1:1 strength programme. Paul was my 1:1 personal trainer, he was really knowledgeable and made a great programme for me. The range of equipment is amazing and I am so pleased with the results. Paul always made the sessions enjoyable. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. I'll be back for another winter strength plan.
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!
Love this place. Really friendly staff. Great equipment and a really good atmosphere.
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!
Shane and the team are the best in the buisness. There isn't another choice that comes close.
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.
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 training facility. Very friendly helpful staff. Good equipment and functional area 💪💪
Paul is a lovely guy, very knowledgeable, encouraging and patient. His sessions are fun and very productive.
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!
As an amateur footballer I kept getting injured and always found weight training impossible to balance with my work, football and running. Paul helped build me a plan that not only works alongside my other activities but compliments them as well.I started with Paul 4 months ago and completed a 3 month plan we agreed. Since then I've not once been injured (trust me when I say that's a big thing for me!), and I'm arguably in the best shape of my life. The plan and motivation Paul gave me is something I'm incredibly happy with. I would recommend him to anyone
Extremely knowledgeable & helpful.Paul has allowed me to unlock a large portion of my potential, very grateful.
Paul has coached me for the last 2 years he is a fantastic personal trainer
Great gym with great trainers and a great atmosphere. It has all the facilities and equipment you need. Having trained at various gyms over the years body ethics is by far the stand out gym in the area. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to join or change gym.
