Most people join a gym because they want to improve their fitness.

But what keeps them coming back?

Enjoying being there.

Finding a place where walking through the door feels comfortable. Where you’re greeted by name, supported by your trainers, and surrounded by people who genuinely want you to succeed.

Because when you enjoy your training, showing up doesn’t feel like a chore.

It becomes part of your routine.
Part of your week.
Part of your lifestyle.

And that’s what we’re trying to create at Fitness by Design — an environment where getting fitter is something you actually look forward to.

No intimidation. No feeling like just another number. Just great training, great people and a community that makes you want to keep coming back.

Come and see what makes us different.

If you feel like some of Torunn's comments agree with you, then this could be the time to TAKE ACTION.
Some people are very quick to say 'I'm too busy for the gym' but sadly don't realise how important exercise is. Without exercise and weight lifting, all those jobs that make you 'busy' cease to be... Your body can't keep up with it any longer.

Ever thought of doing an entire session with BANDS!
I mean a WHOLE session with just bands...
Neither did we, until Lauren decided to take us through it.
Fancy doing something similar? Believe us when we say, it's harder then it looks!

Every session is tailor made for YOU. No two member is the same as medical notes and goals are all different. The members need to be trained as such. With such a variety of trainer knowledge, help will be found within this results driven club.

MYTH: "Eating after 8pm puts fat on."

The truth? Your body doesn't have a cut-off switch at 8pm.

Eating at 9pm, 10pm or even later doesn't automatically cause your body to store that food as fat.

What matters most for fat gain is your overall calorie intake over time.

If you consistently eat more calories than your body needs, you can gain fat — whether those calories are eaten at 8am or 8pm.

That said, late-night eating can sometimes make it easier to consume extra calories through snacks, desserts or larger portions.

✅ It's your overall calorie intake that matters.

✅ Meal timing should fit your lifestyle.

❌ Eating after 8pm doesn't automatically make you gain fat.

At Fitness By Design, we focus on sustainable habits rather than unnecessary food rules. You don't need to stop eating at a certain time to get results.

YOU SHOULDN'T JUST BE ANOTHER FACE IN THE GYM.

YOU SHOULD BE SOMEONE PEOPLE KNOW.

Walking through the door is easier when you know people are expecting you.

When people know your name.
When someone notices if you’re not there.
When your achievements are celebrated.
When the people around you genuinely want you to succeed.

BECAUSE FITNESS ISN’T JUST ABOUT WHAT YOU DO.
IT’S ABOUT WHO YOU DO IT WITH.

We’ve built a community where everyone belongs. Where members encourage each other, friendships are made, and nobody feels like they’re doing it alone.

ONCE YOU EXPERIENCE A GYM LIKE THIS,
A BIG ROOM FULL OF STRANGERS JUST DOESN’T FEEL THE SAME.

ENQUIRE NOW! 💪

Progress isn't made by just interacting with the equipment, it's made by how you interact with the equipment AND the Trainers. A piece of equipment can be used in multiple different ways, not just it's single intended purpose.
Next time you're in, ask your trainer for a session similar to this one, something using the equipment but not for it's intended purpose!

🚨 MYTH: "You need to do endless cardio to lose fat."

The truth? More cardio doesn't automatically mean more fat loss.

Cardio can be a great way to increase your calorie expenditure and improve your cardiovascular health, but spending hours on the treadmill, bike or cross-trainer isn't necessary to lose body fat.

Fat loss comes down to creating a calorie deficit over time.

A combination of strength training, daily movement, cardio and sensible nutrition is often a much more sustainable approach than trying to burn off every calorie through exercise.

✅ Move more.

✅ Build strength.

✅ Manage your calorie intake.

At Fitness By Design, we help you find a sustainable approach to getting stronger, fitter and healthier—without spending hours doing cardio every week.
