Every podium looks differentFrom the first step through the door to a world championship.

Ten real podium moments, nine in members' own words from our Google reviews and one from the pro boxer we coach. Where is yours?

  1. Mychaela holding her 52 onePT sessions sign in front of the med ball wall

    First time with weights

    “I started training at Onept in July and didn’t have any experience of resistance/weight training before. The gym is not intimidating at all.”

    Mychaela Wilson · Google, September 2026

  2. Peter on the rower at onePT, back training in his sixties

    Starting again in your sixties

    “Life had got in the way and I had lost a bit of confidence to start again in my 60’s. I am now a member. Unsure why I initially hesitated!”

    Peter Mayoh · Google, October 2026

  3. Sal Booth playing hockey, low to the ball on an astroturf pitch

  4. Khizar sitting on a bench on the onePT gym floor

    Winning the dads' race

  5. Catherine in an EMS suit in front of the onePT wall slogan

    Stronger at 58 than ever

    Catherine Smith · Google, August 2026

  6. Jane and Rob Barker holding their 500 onePT sessions signs in front of the med ball wall

    Samantha Collier · Google, August 2026

  8. Nicola Moseley with her finisher's medal after a race

    Two HYROX events and a 10K PB

    “Since joining, I’ve completed two HYROX events and achieved a new 10K personal best. I’m fitter, stronger, and still enjoying every session.”

Your step is next

Tell us your podium moment and a coach will reply.

It goes to Neil's phone. A coach replies, not a bot.

How onePT worksThree ideas. One gym.

  1. Establish your podium moment

    What do you want your health and fitness to allow you to achieve?

    Everyone's podium moment is different: HYROX, weight loss, body recomposition, walking pain free, playing with grandchildren, getting stronger at sixty, better health markers, returning from injury, or simply feeling confident again. Not every podium moment involves standing on a podium.

  2. Train with purpose

    Once we know the destination, we plan the route.

    That can be small group PT, strength and conditioning, group training, individual programming, HYROX, whole body EMS, nutrition and lifestyle guidance, and recovery. Training should never just be doing workouts. You will know what you are doing, why you are doing it and whether it is working.

  3. Live with confidence

    This is the outcome.

    Stronger. Fitter. Healthier. More capable. Fewer limitations. Greater confidence in what your body can do.

    See the gym, meet the team and talk through your goals with a coach. No pressure and no hard sell. Book a complimentary session if you want to try it first.

Dr Neil Fell PhD in the onePT gym in Rochdale

Who gets you thereLed by a coach with a PhD in human performance.

Our owner and head coach, Dr Neil Fell, built every part of how we coach. He spent 25 years developing elite athletes, set up the sports medicine and human performance facility at St George's Park, the home of England's football teams, and earned his PhD in Sport and Exercise Science at Liverpool John Moores University. So you are not just getting a place to train. You are getting coaching backed by real science, from a team of nine coaches who are on the floor with you.

  1. Assessed before anything else

    A full health and movement assessment on day one, so your programme starts from where you actually are. Body composition is tracked in the private consultation room every month on request.

  2. Programmed from evidence

    Your programme is written from decades of evidence on strength, conditioning and mobility, then updated as you progress. No random workouts, no guessing.

  3. Prevention is better than cure

    Neil's philosophy in four words. The aim is to keep you strong enough to stay out of the doctor's office, with the same standards he used for international athletes.

Neil grew up on a farm in the South Lakes, which means he was flipping tyres and doing farmer's walks with hay bales long before functional fitness was a phrase.

In 2024 he was nominated for Wellness Leader of the Year at the Forttuna Global Excellence Awards in Dubai.

He is a certified EMS trainer and leads the whole body EMS sessions at onePT alongside Kimberley Stewart.

Favourite exercises: anything bodyweight, pull ups, dips and press ups. Favourite food: Italian. Workout music: Northern Soul and Paul Weller. Vices: cherry Bakewell flapjacks and flat whites. He also played bass in a band called The Profile at university in the nineties, with gigs at The Roadhouse, Night & Day Café and Band on the Wall.
