MEET THE TEAM
No introduction needed for this one, but we’re going to give him one anyway! Get to know a little bit more about our owner, Alex, in his own words ⬇️
My fitness journey started early with my love for football and cross-country, leading me to study Sports Science at college. It was from there that I started working at a gym in Cramlington over twenty years ago and always wanted to open my own gym. In 2015, that dream became a reality when I took a chance on renting ‘The Bunker, Social Club’ in Seaton Delaval. Looking back, it’s the best decision I ever made.
Over the last eleven years, we’ve built an incredible community with a genuine family atmosphere where members support each other, friendships are formed, and everyone feels comfortable walking through the door. Whether you’re looking to lose weight, build strength, or simply feel happier and healthier, you’ll always find encouragement and support here.
Fitness is still a huge part of my own life, too. I train most days, combining gym-based strength training with running ultra marathons (up to 70 miles, so far!). So, whether you need training advice, ultra-running tips, or just a motivational chat, my door is always open—I am always here to help you achieve your best!
