A Personal Trainer for Hucknall People Who Hate Gyms
Not your typical gym, and that's the point
Let's be honest: walking into a gym for the first time (or the first time in years) can feel horrible. Mirrors everywhere, people who seem to know exactly what they're doing, and that nagging feeling that everyone's watching you. If that's what has put you off finding a personal trainer, we get it. RB5 Personal Training was built for exactly that feeling.
We're a personal training gym in Nottingham city centre, just near Old Market Square, and plenty of our members travel in from Hucknall and the surrounding areas. What they find when they arrive is a fitness family of real people. No egos, no pressure, no judgement about where you're starting from. Just Ricky and the team, coaching that actually gets results, and a fair bit of laughing along the way.
Getting to us from Hucknall is easier than you'd think
We know we're not on your doorstep, but here's the good news: Hucknall sits right at the end of the tram line, and Old Market Square is a straight run into town. That means you can get from Hucknall to a session at RB5 without touching your car, fighting for parking, or stressing about traffic on the A611.
We're open 6am to 8pm on weekdays and 7am to 12pm on Saturdays, so whether you want to train before work, on your way home, or on a Saturday morning while the rest of the house is still asleep, there's a slot that fits around real life. Lots of our Hucknall members combine a session with their commute and barely notice the journey.
Whatever your starting point, you're welcome here
Some gyms cater to people who are already fit. We cater to people who want to be. Our members include folks recovering from injury, new mums easing back into exercise after having a baby, and plenty of people over 50 who thought their gym days were behind them. Our Fitness Over 50s sessions exist because we genuinely believe it's never too late to feel stronger.
You can train 1-to-1 with a personal trainer if you want that full, focused attention, or join our small and large group personal training if you prefer a bit of company (and a bit of friendly banter). We also run group fitness classes for when you just want to turn up, work hard, and let someone else do the thinking.
Whichever route you choose, the coaching is tailored to you. Your goals, your body, your pace. Making a change is genuinely hard, and we're not going to pretend otherwise. What we will do is meet you where you are and help you build from there.
Try us for 30 days before you commit
We know that signing up with a personal trainer feels like a big leap, especially if past gym experiences have left a bad taste. That's why we offer a 30-Day Trial. It gives you a proper chance to experience how we coach, meet the fitness family, and see how your body starts to respond, all before you commit to anything longer term.
Thirty days is enough time to build a bit of momentum, settle into a routine that works with your travel from Hucknall, and figure out whether we're the right fit for you. No hard sell at the end. If it works, brilliant. If it doesn't, at least you'll know.

Frequently asked questions
Where is RB5 Personal Training and how far is it from Hucknall?
We're in Nottingham city centre, near Old Market Square. Hucknall is on the tram line that runs to Old Market Square, so many of our Hucknall members find the journey straightforward, especially compared with driving and parking in town.
I haven't exercised in years. Will I be able to keep up?
Yes, and you won't be the only one starting from scratch. We work with all abilities, and every session is scaled to where you are right now. Nobody at RB5 expects you to arrive fit; that's what we're here to help with.
Do you work with people recovering from injury or after having a baby?
We do. Injury recovery and postpartum members are a regular part of our fitness family. We'll take the time to understand your situation and coach you at a pace that supports your recovery rather than rushing it.
What's included in the 30-Day Trial?
The trial is a full experience of how we train, so you can try our coaching, meet the team and other members, and see if RB5 feels right for you before committing to anything longer term. Get in touch and Ricky can talk you through the details.
What are your opening hours?
We're open 6am to 8pm Monday to Friday, and 7am to 12pm on Saturdays. That gives Hucknall members plenty of options to train before work, after work, or on a Saturday morning.
