"I have been attending Forever Health Studio since it opened in February 2019. Being overweight and having a lower back problem, I was very cautious about what exercise I could do safely.
When I signed up for the “Getting Back to Being Healthy” programme, I was given a one-to-one interview and a full assessment. I was asked about any health problems, and I explained my condition along with the details of the medication I was on.
After that, I was shown the equipment and how to set it up properly. The best feature is the wristband. When you log in on each piece of apparatus, it automatically sets up the seat height and weights for you.
That’s when I started my long journey toward getting fit. Over time, I have lost weight and gained more movement in my lower back and legs."

“I joined Forever Health Studio because I have health conditions that make exercising feel almost impossible. Even physiotherapy had failed to help me. When I found Forever Health Studio, I was welcomed warmly and given an individual program using weight machines calibrated specifically for me.
The machines are easy to use, and support is always available if needed. The programs are fun, update automatically when required, and can also be tailored to my personal needs.
The staff are friendly and welcoming, more like a family, and they have been extremely supportive of the challenges I face with my health conditions. Thanks to their help, I look forward to my gym sessions and I am now able to maintain my physical fitness consistently.”

In July 2023, Forever Health Studio was recommended to me by a friend. I was in my late 70s and struggling with a stooped posture, worried it would only get worse as I grew older.
My first contact with the studio was a phone call with Grant. He was very supportive and confident that he could help. A consultation was arranged, and when I arrived, I was made to feel welcome immediately as the atmosphere in the studio is warm and friendly.
After the consultation, Grant assured me that he could improve my posture. Since then, I have had one-to-one sessions with him along with a programme of exercises to do at home.
After a few sessions, I enrolled to use the gym equipment. A member of staff carefully explained how to use each machine, and I was given a wristband with a programme tailored to my ability that automatically sets up the machines when I log in.
Since joining Forever Health Studio, my posture has improved significantly and continues to get better. Using the gym has also made me physically stronger than I have been in years.
With Grant, Steve, and the rest of the team, there is always someone around for support and encouragement. No matter how I feel when I arrive, I always go home feeling so much better.

Just over a year ago, I joined Forever Health Studio in Kempston after a recommendation from a good friend, and it was the best decision I’ve ever made.
I had been overweight for more than ten years, reaching over 17 stone at my heaviest. On top of that, I had severe arthritis in both knees, which was made worse by the extra weight. I wore bulky knee braces that did little to help. I was also on high blood pressure medication since 2005, and my gut health was very poor.
Walking into the gym for the first time was the scariest part. I was incredibly nervous, but everyone was so friendly and welcoming that I quickly felt at ease.
I started slowly, working my way through different programmes on the machines with full guidance. Then I decided to try the bike. At first, I was wary because of my painful knees, but with gentle encouragement from Tish, I gradually built up my time, resistance, and distance until I could complete 10 km in one session. The real highlight came when I finished the gym’s 220 km challenge. The sense of achievement was incredible. By then, my knees had improved by around 90 percent, and I no longer needed braces. I could walk further, and my doctor even told me I could stop taking blood pressure tablets.
Encouraged by this progress, I booked some one-to-one sessions with Grant. His knowledge of biomechanics, nutrition, and mental health is phenomenal. With his guidance, I began gentle exercises to improve my gait, posture, and mobility. He helped my hips rotate properly, corrected my leg length, and taught me how to move with more balance. I also took his nutritional advice, changed my diet, and introduced fasting.
As a result, I have now lost nearly three stone (18.3 kilos). I still have more to go, but I am determined to make it happen. It hasn’t always been easy, but with the support of Grant, Steve, and Tish, I’ve felt encouraged every step of the way. Their constant praise and reassurance have kept me going, even when things felt overwhelming.
In just over a year, I have gone from being overweight, in pain, and unhappy to being someone who is proud of what I’ve achieved. My confidence has come back, I can walk further with my dog, and I even climbed a fell in the Lake District. I can now walk upstairs without holding the banister (though coming down is still a work in progress). Best of all, I finally fit into a pair of size 14 shorts—something I never thought I’d do again.
I am in a much better place mentally and physically, and I’m truly enjoying life again. I feel incredibly proud to be part of the Forever Health Studio family, and I’m excited to continue my journey.
