About

The personal touch to training in the heart of Nottingham city centre.

About Formula One Gym

We're not a commercial faceless gym whereby you swipe a card and enter a soulless, sterile environment. We consider ourselves at the heart of the community. Our staff have got to know the local businesses, local residents and everyone in between over the course of decades. We enjoy getting to know our members.

We spend time with you to find out what you really want to achieve.

We want to support you, not lecture you. We offer a diverse range of equipment and physical support from our fully qualified and experienced staff. We appreciate half the battle is motivating yourself to get to the gym in the first place. Once you have then we'll give you a helping hand to make sure you can make the most of us.

I absolutely love this gym! One of the best features is the female-only gym on the top floor, which provides a comfortable and private space for women to work out. The staff is super friendly and always willing to help, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The gym itself is always clean, and it's clear they take pride in maintaining the space. I also appreciate that the equipment is always in great working condition, whether it's the cardio machines or the weights. Highly recommend this gym to anyone!

I joined this gym just over a month ago and it was the best choice I made. The staff are all so lovely greeting you with a smile when you arrive and when you leave which makes the start and end of each of my gym sessions so much better. This is the first gym I have joined and was made to feel comfortable when I had my induction being reassured all the time that if there was something I didn’t want to do there was no pressure to do it which was lovely. The female only gym is also amazing and I am able to complete a full workout in an environment where I always feel comfortable. One thing I would like to see though is a wider dumbbell selection in the ladies gym :)

If you're looking for a gym that feels like home, this spot in Nottingham City Centre is a gem. The staff are incredibly friendly and always make you feel welcome, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere from the moment you walk in. The equipment may be old-school, but it’s effective, offering everything you need for a great workout. What’s even better is the pricing—really reasonable for what you get in comparison to neighbouring gyms. The location is super convenient, right in the heart of the city, making it easy to fit into any schedule. Unlike commercial gyms, this place has a genuine, non-corporate vibe that I absolutely love. I’ve been going here while at university, and it’s become a favourite spot for me to train. It’s the perfect combination of great people, solid equipment, and an unbeatable atmosphere.
