About our Gym

The story behind our Gym

The Fitness Factory is the lifetime work of trainers Gary Pettigrew and Chris Millar.

Like most good ideas, it was hatched in a chance meeting at a party. Both trainers were at different stages in their lives, but they both wanted to create a training facility like no other in the area.

Gary has already been a successful PT in his own right for the last 10 years and was looking to take his business to the next level.

Chris had played professional football for 20 years and, at that point, was looking to go into a new career as a personal trainer.

The stars aligned, and the Fitness Factory idea was born into life.

Fast forward a few years later, some failed attempts to open, and a pandemic and The Fitness Factory was created.

The state-of-the-art facility pioneers the concept of group personal training. In this, clients receive in-depth coaching from two highly skilled trainers, train with a group of like-minded individuals on the same journey, and are part of a community that supports them in reaching their goals.

Everything you would get from personal training with the added benefit of a community and at a reduced cost from one-to-one training.
