Base Functional Fitness

"As a husband, father, and grandfather, I don't have the time nor the desire to figure out what to do for my workouts on a regular basis. That's why I workout at BASE. They program every single workout for me and coach me on the movements every single day."

We understand what it feels like to sign up at a traditional gym for £30/month and walk in for the first time extremely intimidated and not sure what to do.

At traditional gyms, you're on your own to figure out the rest and it simply doesn't work for most adults.

At BASE FITNESS, we are the opposite. We focus on coaching you, a busy adult, towards your goals, not leaving you on your own to figure it out.

We help hard working Moms get stronger.

Seeing women learn what their bodies are capable of is extremely rewarding for our team of professional Coaches and even more rewarding for the women themselves. 😊

We understand what it feels like to be nervous about joining a gym, especially a different one like ours. That's why we have a 'help first' mentality.

Our goal isn't to sell you on our program. Our goal is to listen to you, your past experiences, your goals, and then, and only then, we create a plan to help you get started.

Every single one of our members were where you are right now. Nervous and hesitant. But they took the first step and reached out to us. You can too.

Women become even more empowered at BASE FITNESS.

They run. They row. They jump. They squat. They deadlift. They pull up. They push up. They smile. They laugh. They high five. They fist bump. They hug. They are awesome.

We understand what it feels like to do the same thing at the traditional gym over and over and over again without getting the results you want.

To describe it in a few words... it's boring, frustrating, devastating, annoying, etc.

At BASE, we focus on you and your goals. Once we know where you want to go, we can set a plan on how to get there.

Our biggest asset is communicating with you and coaching you. That doesn't happen at the traditional gym but it happens here.

Feeling like you’ve been left out on your own at the traditional gym?

You had a tour, signed up for less than £30/month but still don’t know exactly what you want to achieve or how to reach your goals?

Well, we do things a little differently here.

We start with what you want to achieve and we work from there.

Feeling lost somewhere else? Let's talk.

MENS NIGHT!

Friday 31st March
6.30pm - 8.30pm
At Base Functional Fitness, Chivenor.
Cost £10 (not sure what to do with the money yet, but it will not be going into my pocket! I like the idea of giving it to a local charity or helping out another man in need.

Why?
Honestly I am unsure of the why yet, all I know is that I would like to bring men together and to create a environment where we can be honest, inspirational and help each other with tackling life. To see us all smiling, joking and laughing whilst doing some strength and fitness.

What to expect?
A gym full of men who are wanting to get after it and support each other. Expect to talk to people, encourage others, expect beer or non alcoholic beer. Expect to ache the next day! Expect that I will be completely open and honest about my life, and some of the struggles I face and how I am working through them (it might help others).
Please dont expect a circle where we all discuss our problems and off load how s**t our lifes are. If after individuals want to drive deeper into personal problems I will be ready to listen!

Gents,

If you can make it, please drop us a DM and i ll get you booked in.

Our first “Men’s Night”

Thank you to the gents that came down to spend their Friday evening with us (and miss the football).

Was really inspiring, and motivating seeing the gym full of lads all working together, chatting and being part of something special.

While some gyms promote a competitive, lift heavy, and go hard all day, every day mentality, we focus on you and your needs for the day, the week, the month, and the long term.

Some days, you should lift heavy.
Some days, you should go hard.
Some days, you should let your competitive side show.
But, most days, you should just move.

It's much easier when you find a place with a group of like-minded adults who want to have a good time and improve their health so they can be better at things outside of the gym.

No pressure. Just working out and having fun. That's what we do here.

Click link in bio to book your MEET & GREET, so we can learn more about your health and fitness goals today.

BASE INTRO PACKAGE.

The route into the world for base fitness starts with a Meet & Greet. We will get to know each other, learn about what base believes in, and why. And dive into you and your goals.

From there clients complete 2 x 1-1 sessions where we teach you some fundamental movements and exercises to ensure you are kept safe and confident!

Then let’s get you into a group setting and you are ready to rock and roll.

Fancy it?
