My Why for Starting CF

I started CountryFit because I wanted to create the kind of place I believe fitness should be, and one I felt was missing in the fitness industry. Ultimately, I created something I wanted to be a part of.

A place where you can train hard and challenge yourself, but where fitness adds to your life rather than taking over it. Where you can have big goals, or no goals at all beyond wanting to move, feel stronger and spend an hour with some really good people. And I wanted to take away some of the pressure that can come with gyms and exercise and bring it back to what I love about movement. Being outside, getting stronger, having fun, doing things you didn’t think you could do and sharing it with the people around you.

That’s why community has always been such a huge part of CountryFit. I want people to turn up knowing they’ll be welcomed, supported and never made to feel like they’re not fit enough to be here. For me, CountryFit has never just been about workouts. It’s about building strength and confidence that carries into the rest of your life and hopefully helping you do more of the things you love outside of the field too.

No mirrors, no egos, no judgement. Just good training, fresh air and a pretty brilliant bunch of people around you. Feel very lucky to have the community we do, and have an incredibly supportive bunch of people around me to have made it happen :)
