outdoor personal training Summer Bristol

Although Active8 has two indoor fitness centres in Henleaze and Clifton, we do integrate outdoor personal training over the Summer season in Bristol.


Providing our clients with a bespoke fitness programme that includes indoor sessions and outdoor personal training exercises in warmer weather is one of the ways in which we help clients to get the best from their wellbeing journey.

Outdoor personal training during the Summer months in Bristol remains a popular choice, and our PTs work closely with clients on Clifton Downs and Berkeley Square, close to our indoor gym locations.

When it comes to outdoor personal training programmes from May to September, there are a few key elements to think about.

The benefits of outdoor personal training
