Meet Graeme – Founder of GB1fitness

I’m Graeme founder of GB1fitness.

After 30 years in retail, including 25 as a branch manager, I knew it was time for a change.

In Spring 2021, GB1fitness was born to help ordinary, friendly people in Milton Keynes get fit again at their own pace.

Started with zero members.

Three weeks of classes with zero bookings.

Then one booking. Then another.

Momentum built.

The GB1fitness Philosophy

Progress over Perfection.

We don't chase quick fixes. We build habits that last.

Train at your own pace. No mirrors. No egos.

Just ordinary people getting fitter together.

Suitable for all abilities. No need to be fit to start.

You don't need to feel ready. You just need to show up.

Strong for life.

Strength, fitness and confidence that supports your actual life, not a 6-week sprint.

I’m an avid runner and strength training advocate.

I've been running for 16+ years.

These days, my focus is longevity. Staying strong, capable and healthy for the long term, and helping others do the same.

You don't need to be a runner to train with me.

Real Struggles, Real Life

I may be a coach and a runner, but I'm a human first.

During my time in retail, I struggled with stress and anxiety to the point I was off work for a month.

These days, my biggest personal challenge is nutrition and weight management. It's mental battle I don't always win.

That's why I don't believe in perfection. I believe in consistency, learning and showing up even when it's not easy.

If you want to train with a coach who understands real life, not just reps and sets, you're in the right place.
