Personal training near Norden
Ten minutes from Norden village to a coach whose specialism matches your goal.
If you live in Norden and want a personal trainer, onePT is about three miles away on Albion Road Industrial Estate, a ten minute drive down through Bamford. It is a coaching gym rather than a standard gym, so personal training here is backed by a full assessment, a written programme and a team of nine coaches led by Dr Neil Fell PhD.
Norden members tend to be active already. People walk the Ashworth Valley and the moors, play golf at Rochdale Golf Club, ride and run, and then find that a shoulder, a hip or a lower back is spoiling it. One to one coaching is built for exactly that: your coach looks at how you move, finds the weak links and writes a plan that protects the activity you love while making you stronger for it.
You are matched with the right coach for the job. Neil leads rehab and longevity work with 25 years of elite sport behind him. Harrison coaches strength and powerlifting as a British champion. Adam specialises in body recomposition and lower back pain. Danielle brings physiotherapy and Pilates. Chris coaches HYROX as a two time world championship qualifier. Kim brings mobility and nutrition.
Sessions are one to one or two to one, from 6am on weekdays, and most people add the gym and coaching membership so they have unlimited group sessions, the recovery room and the infrared saunas between appointments. Progress is tracked monthly in the private consultation room, including body composition on request.
The first step is a free consultation at the gym. You will see the facility, meet a coach and talk through your goal and any injury history, and we will tell you honestly which coach and which programme fit. Message us on WhatsApp and we will arrange a time that suits you.

Train with purposeOnce we know the destination, we plan the route.
onePT is not a collection of classes. It is a structured pathway from your first visit to year ten, so you always know what you are doing, why you are doing it and whether it is working.





Step 1 of 5
A free consultation
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.

Your health and movement assessment
Body composition, how you move, what aches and what you want to be able to do. Everything that follows is built from this.

Your programme
Written by your coach from the assessment and your goals, kept in the onePT app, and updated as you progress. It changes when you do.

Coached sessions, as many as you like
Unlimited group coaching across strength, conditioning, mobility, HYROX and Pilates, plus open gym whenever you want to train alone.

Monthly one to one, weekly check ins
Every month you sit down with your coach to review progress and update the programme. Every week someone checks you are on track.

“I came to lift weights. I left feeling ten years younger. At 58 I am stronger than I have ever been and I wouldn’t want to train anywhere else.”
“I'm currently recovering from a herniated disc and ongoing sciatica. Neil has taken the time to understand my injuries, adapt everything to my needs and help me feel safe exercising again.”
“I had been a member of a gym 20 years ago, since then life had got in the way and I had lost a bit of confidence to start again in my 60’s. Unsure why I initially hesitated!”
