Meet Jilly đź‘‹

She’d never set foot in a gym before she came to us.

After retiring from a physical job she went from being on her feet all day to doing very little, and she could feel her strength and mobility going.

Now she can get up off the sofa without pushing herself up with her hands. Stronger, moving better, and doing it in her own time.

Meet Diane đź‘‹

She’d joined a gym before, signed up for a whole year, and went twice.

Walking in, it was always younger people who clearly knew exactly what they were doing. She didn’t, so the motivation never came.

Now she trains with us twice a week and looks forward to it. She’s getting stronger and she can feel it working.

If a gym has put you off before, come and have a chat. No pressure at all 🙂

Meet Jo đź‘‹

Jo was heading into her sixties when she was diagnosed with osteopenia, so she knew that weight bearing exercise mattered.

Then she moved to the area, and finding the right sort of place wasn’t easy. Walking into somewhere new on your own is daunting at any age.

She found us, and the welcome came from the members as much as the coaches.

Jo’s getting stronger now, and she’s really noticing it in her legs.

If you know you need to start lifting some weight but haven’t found the right place, come and have a chat. No pressure at all 🙂

Meet the team - Becky đź‘‹

Our gym manager, with us almost from day one.

She leads the team and looks after every member who comes through the door, in the gym and outside it.

If you train here, you’ll know exactly what we mean.

Meet the team - George đź’Ş

Part of the furniture, and the reason half the gym is laughing on a Tuesday morning.

He’s a brilliant coach who genuinely cares about getting it right for every person in the room.

Fun and proper training at the same time.

Meet the team - Jay

He’s our newest coach, but he’s been part of the place for three years.

Jay was one of those people who made every session better just by being in it. Always encouraging, always helping, always looking out for whoever needed it.

So when the chance came up, it was an easy decision.

He’s passionate about people, and it shows in the way he coaches.

Meet the team - Harry, our founder.

He built 1 Force for one reason. Big gyms are intimidating, and that shouldn’t be what stops someone over 40 getting strong.

So this is the opposite. Small groups, a coach beside you, and nobody watching.

Stronger, more energy, and years more doing what you love. That’s the whole mission.

Nervous walking into a gym? Most people are before their first session. That’s completely normal.

Every person in these photos felt it too. Now look at them, strong, smiling, just getting on with it.

That’s what this place is. Not a room full of younger, fitter people. Just people getting stronger together, at their own pace, with a coach right beside them the whole way.

We built 1 Force for people who don’t feel like big gyms are for them.

If that sounds like you, come and have a chat. No pressure at all. 🙂

Meet Will đź‘‹

In his words: “Since joining the gym, I’ve been feeling a lot better, more ready to take on the day when I wake up.”

Will came to us a bit nervous about bigger gyms, where he’d felt intimidated by people who looked like big bodybuilders.

Here, the sessions are laid out for him and the coaches show him exactly what to do, so there’s nothing to worry about and no chance of hurting himself.

Stronger arms, more energy, better sleep, and some new faces to see when he comes down 🙌

If you’ve been putting it off because the gym feels intimidating, we get it, and we built this place for you. Come and have a chat 🙂

Meet Bev đź‘‹

Bev’s in her 50s, and when she joined us there were little everyday things that had quietly got harder.

Getting up off the beach without her husband giving her a hand. Getting off the sofa without a few grunts and groans.

A few months on, that’s changed. In her words, she “no longer needs any help at all”, and she’s more active now, especially when the grandchildren come round.

She’s got a slight knee issue too, so the coaches just tweak the odd exercise so she can still do everything. As Bev put it, “I couldn’t wish for more support.”

If a niggle like a sore knee has been putting you off starting, come and have a chat. No pressure at all 🙂

Jay’s first weekend running our Saturday sessions, and he was brilliant. 🙌

He’s our newest coach, and you can already see why the members have taken to him. Calm, patient, and right beside you every step.

Welcome to the team properly, Jay. Brilliant start. 🙂

Meet Mick đź‘‹

He’s in his 70s, and he’d had a really bad back for two years before he found us.

Now? In his words:

“It’s the best physiotherapy. You’re with a group of people that are fun.”

Getting a bit stronger each week, in a small friendly group, with coaches making sure every movement’s right. That’s done more for his back than he ever expected 🙌

He’s stronger, steadier, and back enjoying his gardening, walking and cycling.

If a bad back has been holding you back, come and have a chat. No pressure at all 🙂

08/06/2026

This is Pam, and she nearly didn’t come.

She didn’t think she needed a gym.

A few months on, the sore back after gardening has gone, she can lift her rescue dog without hurting herself, and she feels more upright when she walks. Her words, not ours.
No six week shreds, no summer bodies. Just helping people over 40 stay strong enough to keep doing the things they love 🙂

If that sounds like you, drop us a message.
