Independent, not-for-profit company Bay Leisure Ltd has opened its third low cost Simply Gym site in Cwmbran.

CEO of Bay Leisure Ltd Richard Proctor said: “The new gym is perfectly located on the first floor above Frankie & Benny’s restaurant on Glyndwr Road and is kitted out with all the latest Life Fitness equipment. The gym is also a certified Hammer Strength Training Centre and staffed by PTs from Your Personal Training.

“It is really important to us that low cost does not mean low quality or poor service. We have strived to deliver exemplary standards at an affordable price to allow a wider segment of the local community to access good quality training facilities and high quality advice.”

Your PT has been working in partnership with Bay Leisure Ltd since the launch of its first Simply Gym in Llansamlet five years ago.

Mr Proctor said: “Working with Your PT enables us to offer members a quality gym experience without incurring additional staff costs. Instead, we receive a monthly guaranteed income.

“Partnering with Your PT also means that new personal trainers join the business ready to hit the ground running. We obviously complete a basic site and company induction with them but essentially they are fully competent to deliver a high quality personal training service from day one. Your PT also ensures each individual completes the necessary ongoing CPD training and holds the relevant public liability insurance. This saves our back office staff a significant amount of time and resource.”

Bay Leisure Ltd is actively growing the Simply Gym business and looks to use Your PT for future site openings.

Joe Oliver, founder of Your PT, said: “We’re extremely proud to be partnered with Bay Leisure Ltd. They’re passionate about offering their members the best possible gym experience and we’re pleased that our PTs are able to help them achieve this. They provide a number of our PTs with a great membership base, profitable revenue stream and an enjoyable working environment.”
