I hate the Gym!That was the only thing I could think of while going UP to the first session with Ben.I hate the Gym, I have always hated it, and I will always do. I also hate the dentist, but I go because you have to. Nothing was ever going to make me change my mind.It is now the end of my third week, and I want to go to the Gym. I wake up, and I am ready to go. When we finish the sessions, I feel better than when I started, and I could ramble on.How?Do you wonder?UP Performance Marina Dubai and my “master” Ben have changed all this.The professionalism, patience, precision, pace and genuine care Ben demonstrates every time I show up are exceptional.The environment is also pristine which during a pandemic certainly help with the peace of mind.It is almost like they knew I hated the Gym, why I hated it and so they read my mind and changed what needed to change.I am convinced that if you are looking for a lifestyle change or getting that physique, you always dreamed of, they’ll surely find their way to your heart and muscles!

Honestly this is by far the best experience I’ve had when it comes to working out and getting in shape. It’s a complete lifestyle change and I’ve seen results that I always dreamt of seeing before but never did. My trainer Celine really connected with me from the get go and understood everything i wanted to achieve. Awesome communication and always making sure I’m staying on track and still being highly motivated. She is super knowledgeable and even helped me work on some shoulder pain that i had for a while. Much happier now, much more energetic, and definitely more comfortable with my body all thanks to Celine and the wonderful team at UP

Thank you, Tom Ogden for the last 4 weeks training in Dubai! A real pleasure getting to know you and helping me achieve my goals. A true PT to the core and I look forward to coming back to UP Dubai soon. Tom made my goals his own and we smashed them together, all in less than 4 weeks! 🙏🏼👊🏼✅

If you want to invest in your health and are committed to change, this is the place to go in Dubai.I have been training at Ultimate Performance Dubai Marina for nearly 3 months now, with Tom Ogden, and the results exceed my expectations by far. Besides the very noticeable body transformation, I am most amazed by other benefits and its impact to my day-to-day life: higher energy levels, better mood, better sleep. My frequent back/shoulder/neck pain are also gone.Tom is a results driven coach, very knowledgeable and truly engaged in supporting his clients to achieve their goals. All these are reflected in his sessions, always pushing you to break your perceived limits but also outside the gym through his practical advices and encouragement.The Dubai Marina gym is a great venue to train, full of natural light and never packed so it truly feels like a private gym.

First time with a personal trainer and its been an amazing experience throughout. I have been training with Celine for about 2 months, and thanks to her continued guidance and support in keeping me motivated and on track, I have seen results that I am exceedingly happy with, that could not have been achieved without her! Training with her has not only helped me feel stronger and healthier than ever before but has also helped change my lifestyle and nutritional habits for the better.The gym environment is also extremely positive and upbeat, and all the trainers at UP are supportive and professional. Its been a great experience so far, definitely recommend the commitment!

The UP gym especially Dubai Marina branch is truly amazing. My partner and I have achieved almost 10kg each in just few weeks time. The training, meal plan and daily exercise tracking are very well planned in details by our train Henry. Very practical and helpful. And Henry has explained to us very clearly in every aspects about the process and guidance. My partner and I we both can see our body changes. We feel not only our body and health are getting stronger, also our lifestyle and emotions are getting more energized and optimistic. He is a very professional, helpful and friendly trainer. Always makes us feel motivated and professionally guided. Also, the gym is very clean, great atmosphere, nice view and staffs are all very friendly. Strongly recommend!

Having trained for 3 years at Ultimate Performance in both Mayfair and City (in London), Id always wondered whether the experience at the international branches would be the same. I got the chance to find out as a chance encounter with my original UP trainer here in Dubai meant I signed up. The Marina gym is well decked out, layout is brilliant, views are stunning and the trainers as I have come to expect at UP are the best in the business. For me training with Ben again is brilliant. weve called straight back in to the old routine despite a 4 year training gap. The training is varied but always intense and Bens expert knowledge on training methods and nutrition advice is invaluable. Ive always felt that Ben and the other UP trainers Ive trained with actually listen to what your aims are and also hear your concerns. The phases of training are varied but always intense and the nutrition planning and advice really does help make it sustainable. as I joked with Ben recently, I look forward to still training with him when Im in my 80s

Have been working out with Tom Ogden since March. He has done an amazing job transforming my stats and my lifestyle. My weight has dropped from 88kg to 70kg. But more importantly, my fat percentage has dropped from 28 percent to 16 prevent resulting in drop in my cholesterol and BP levels. Have also reversed by pre-diabetic condition. Highly recommend UP and Tom. They hold you accountable with weekly measurements and provide real time feedback.

I joined UP in may to get stronger for my sport, rugby and I can gladly say that it was worth it. I feel so much stronger and confident on the pitch. This is all thanks to the great staff and equipment at UP. The gym on its own is wonderful, very clean, lots of light and a great view. Everyone is so welcoming and helpful, Merat (my trainer) gives great advice and keeps me motivated all while pushing me to my full potential, I highly recommend this facility.

Joining UP Marina back in January has been the best investment I have made till date towards my health and wellness. My trainer Ben has been wonderful and making sure I stick with my program during my sessions, while at home and when I am traveling. Ben and the UP team are truly dedicated in making sure I keep progressing.

I am absolutely loving my experience with UP so far, with my trainer Ryan Chua. The UP gym and facilities are world class; everyone is professional and welcoming. Ryan has been amazing - he provides the perfect balance of challenge and support. He is great at keeping me focused and motivated to physically become the best version of myself. I am so pleased with my transformation journey so far.

I started with UP a couple of months ago and it totally changed my life.I lost the weight; and now I am learning to maintain it for life.Best Gym for serious results. I have tried many gyms and private trainers before but UP is the only gym that seriously focus on your results and helps you achieve itI’m training with Ben Murray and he is great, he teach meHow to take care of my body and health for life.Would highly recommend this place and Especially my trainer ( Ben Murray) for anyone who wants a good value on money spent for fitness and real results .

Ultimate Performance is the premier gym in Dubai and around the globe. A friend recommended it based on her results and I have loved seeing my body change. Tom Ogden is a fantastic trainer, pushes me to my absolute limits, and physically and mentally it’s changed my life. I successfully completely my transformation and continued my membership! Well worth the cost for the personalized service each and every day. Tom genuinely cares for his clients and I can’t wait to keep transforming my body! Thank you!

I have joined UP just few weeks ago. However, in this short timeframe the changes to my physical appearance is noticeable. More importantly, i have started to value a lot more the food that we consume and its impact on our health.My trainer Ryan has been absolutely fantastic. Right from guiding and helping on the meal plan ( for a pure indian vegetarian) to pushing just enough for me to be motivated to come back to train again and again.I am pretty confident that with support from Ryan, i will achieve my goals.

Great experience overall! if youre looking to get results and be motivated and pushed to your limits then UP is the place to go to.Dont be fooled by the nice equipments and friendly staff, youre in for a beating once you start training but its all worth it.Highly recommended and i would suggest you ask for Merat Tafreshi as your PT as this gentleman can work wonders.

After my initial transformation, dropping more than half my body fat & 14kg, I was so impressed with the results and frankly the lifestyle changes it brought about – that I simply continued training with them.Today - as a one of the more “long-term” clients of UP, having also seen the wife & some friends all go through some amazing transformations in the meantime, I can truly testify - the results are 100% as advertised.For those contemplating to do this - you WILL NOT regret going with UP. They are a premier and Global franchise, with many celebrities to their credit.Their facilities are top-notch & they are well known for their best-in-class Professional Trainers. You will get your very own bespoke training and nutrition plans, with a trainer that’s dedicated to your transformation 24/7.Yes it takes commitment from your side & the trainers are there to push you to your limit (and they will 😉) yet, it does not matter if you are unfit, never trained in the gym before or even have an injury – the guys are pros & will adapt the training plan to your goals & capabilities.@Tom Hutchinson - not just the best “coach” – but a friend ! See you in the gym …..

If you are looking to achieve transformational goals and you are expecting results on time, that’s the place to go. The gym is impressive and the team is professional and very capable. My trainer, Ben Murray, is focused on my goals and tracks my results relentlessly. He keeps on tailoring the program to my specific needs. I am enjoying the experience and the outcome. Best fitness program in Dubai and Best group of trainers.

Since I joined UP over six months ago, my nutrition and health has completely been transformed. Working with my trainer, Ben, I have been pushed to extremes I didn’t know I could handle. I look forward to continuing this rewarding experience for months to come!

Joining UP is the best decision I have made in my life. Not only have I lost 9 kgs in 2.5 months but also have gained a significant amount of muscle mass. More importantly, I feel much stronger, both physically and mentally. My trainer never lets me give up (even in my weakest moments) and is transforming my mindset to that of a winner. He constantly raises the bar and has helped me achieve goals that I never thought possible. I cannot recommend UP and my trainer enough. If you want a true mind and body transformation, this is the place to be!

The fact that I went back to them the 2nd time is enough testimony of why they are sooo good. They don’t just train you for that hour. They educate and train for life outside. They even did a workaround when I broke my finger playing sports outside. They didn’t let me stop.I rather call them your fitness partner. I have been training with Yosh with whom I have a love hate relationship. I hate him for the hour I spend in the gym and love him when I see my weight and my inches going down.Highly recommended. I say this after having experienced multiple gyms and trainers. The no nonsense gym.

I started my journey with UP a couple of months ago and it totally changed my life. First, I lost the weight; and now I am learning to maintain it for life. It’s been around 9 months and I am addicted! I love the vibe and positive energy at this gym. I have been training with Emma Rooney and she is great. She genuinely cares about my training and my nutrition. I am learning to take care of my body and health for life and eventually my mental health. You want to take charge of your life *seriously*, get stronger physically and mentally, stop wasting time and just jump in with Emma. Just jump. If you are reading this review, it’s a sign 😉

If you ready to begin the most amazing journey of your life, this is the place where all starts! Big up and thanks to Tom Ogden who delivered top-notch training all the way: he is dedicated and fully committed to your success, always pushing you to reach beyond your limits and only focused on results. Rockstar trainer that will never let you down!...This is not a PT programme, this is life-changing experience, just...do it!

After spending close to two years at the UP gym I can only repeat what I mentioned before . This was the best investment I did . Moving to the marina gym even made it more exciting, the view is great. The positive vibe is there , the continuous support is always there . My trainer Ruan always puts his 120% to keep me on track . I love this place although I don’t live in the Marina , I still - with great pleasure- drive three times a week to train . Thank you UP marina for your continuous support .

Elite gym and top trainers, I am happy about the decision I made to join UP.Everyone is here just to get results, if you want to transform your body and get most out of your time, give this place a try and watch your body transformation.After 10 weeks: I lost 12 Kg body weight so far and had clear changes to my body shape, cannot wait to see my final result at the end of my 20 weeks package.I tried to transform my body many times before, tried personal trainers in other facilities, everytime I was quitting demotivated , this time I see it happening, my coach Tom Ogden owns my transformation journey and he truly cares about the results. He helped me to change my lifestyle, stay disciplined and motivated, and always pushing my limits during the workout.Thanks UP and thanks Tom!

I highly recommend UP for anyone that is ready to put in the work and get the results they’ve dreamed off. With the help of my awesome coach, Merat Tafreshi, I managed to finally eat healthy and clean, stay active and become stronger, he definitely keeps me on track and challenges me to progress every day, every week. And the results are showing both on the scale and on my clothes. This works for real, and it eliminates the guesswork out of your journey to get fit and healthy.

Best gym in town.The people here care a lot about their clients, are always accessible, are very knowledgeable about health and nutrition, and know how to motivate you. If you’re serious about your wellbeing and if you’re ready to work, the people at UP will get you there fast. Joining was one of my best decisions.

When I joined UP I did not know what to expect. I knew I was making a physical, mental, and financial investment in trying to transform my body and nutrition but I had done that before with not much effect. Very quickly however, I realized that this program was not some sort of gimmick and the trainers were serious about helping you achieve your goals as long as you met them half way and committed to the program.In 15 weeks I have managed to shed 20 Kgs and completely transform the shape of my body. I have surprised even myself and while I did alter my lifestyle habits, it was with the guidance of my trainer Tom Ogden that I truly managed to see and believe in the progress. Tom has helped guide my nutritional habits and pushed me to failure and beyond in the gym while always trying to educate and explain the cause and effect of what UP demands of you. It has been a phenomenal experience so far and truly worth the commitment.

After trying Multiple PTs over the past 6 years, i can confidently say that I finally found the best one. My trainer Ben has been amazing since the get-go.Supportive, knowledgeable and always making sure I push myself to the limit to ensure that I grow to my full potential.Highly recommended for anyone who wants real results and is willing to put in the effort!

This is the second time I join UP. Its great to know that my PT Ruan is an expert in his job and he is qualified to support me with my training needs delivering super results above and beyond my expectations. Its the best gym that I can train without any injuries! Strongly recommend

Great Experience as a first timer. I have tried many gyms in the past, but this is best of all. All trainers are exceptional, & top industry professionals, taking personal interest in clients no matter what fitness level they are at.Gym has the positive energy due to all this factors.All training sessions are followed with safe guidelines of COVID 19 regulation. Very high standard of hygiene is practiced.I am certainly satisfied thus far and It’s a life changing gym experience.

Enrolled to the 12week UP cycle and could not be happier with the changes I am seeing in both my physique and living habits. I personally trained with PT trainer Merat Tafreshi who has been incredible during this journey. He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. Using the UP app data, trainers have the ability to make tweaks on a daily basis if needed to best support your progress. I have tried an array of training programs over the years and I can honestly say that this has given me the best results and tools to achieve that summer shredded body look. Big thanks to the UP marina team 👍

I have been through a number of gyms and personal trainers over the years.Ultimate Performance is by far the best experience I have ever come across.My Personal Trainer; Ruan Swart, has and continues to give me phenomenal, precision crafted training sessions, advice and support regarding, nutrition, rest, and even stress management, consistently.The sheer expertise and knowledge that Ruan has, is on another level. He has a realistic and holistic view of how to set and help me achieve attainable goals, how to manage slip ups in terms of diet, from my side, when they happen and how to get the best out of me, by continuously motivating me and adapting my program to keep our sessions optimal.The journey with UP is truly life-changing, and continues to be transformational.Simply put; UP delivers results!I highly recommend joining UP if you really want to make the change you so deserve...

My UP experience has been more about a personal journey than an exercise in body transformation. I signed up to see if I could ‘solve’ a weight-related medical issue with which I’ve been dealing for 25 years. During those years, I have tried just about everything nutritionally, exercise-wise and even aesthetically – with little result. Thanks to the UP programme, I have begun to understand what training and nutrition are supposed to look like.Don’t get me wrong: the training sessions are seriously demanding and you will have to commit to the rest of the programme for it to work. But it is do-able.Two months in and, although I personally have not seen substantial weight loss, what I have experienced is even better: realistic and consistent progress which I believe will be sustainable in the long-term.My UP trainer, Tom Ogden, has been exceptional. He’s a big guy with an even bigger personality but underneath all of that is a coach in the true sense of the word: a dedicated, empathetic and fully-present individual who ‘gets’ you, who will go on whatever journey you need to go on, who will keep you accountable, who is always ready to answer questions and whose positivity, encouragement and conviction in your success will ignite a drive to go beyond the limits of what you thought was actually achievable.For the first time in a very long time, I am confident that I might just get my answers. And that’s exciting because it could even mean offering hope to other women with the same condition.

I joined UP after seeing outstanding results for some of my friends who had joined before me. I came in with very high expectations and UP still managed to exceed them.All the trainers are super friendly and professional, and the environment is very pleasant and accommodating. The culture is result-driven with constant monitoring of progress. My trainer Ruan has done a tremendous job at helping me push my limit and evolve, while always taking the time to help me create sustainable habits - be it with my workout form, my food, my training cadence. His investment in my development is truly remarkable, and his attention to detail is unparalleled.The results at UP speak for themselves, but the emphasis on pushing yourself so hard while still enjoying the process is what sets this place apart.

Having used a number of different gyms and experimented with PTs in the past, I was initially skeptical whether the results advertised by UP were actually achievable. I have now completed 10 weeks of a 12 week programme and the results already have far exceeded my expectations. It is not easy and definitely requires commitment but if you fully invest in the process and follow the guidance of your trainer, you will see the transformation! I would highly recommend UP to anyone (like me) who has trained regularly for some time but never quite got into the physical condition they are striving for. UP will take you to that next level and give you the tools to maintain it in the future.

I started training with Ruan at UP 7 weeks ago and have been very impressed with every aspect. I have had a number of different personal trainers over the years and none have come close in terms of knowledge, support or results.In recent years I have struggled with aggravating minor injuries, but as a result of Ruan correcting my form and the tailored training plan he provided this issue has been eliminated. In addition to form he has taught me valuable lessons around nutrition which will benefit my health and fitness for years to come.There is a really positive attitude throughout the gym generated from Ruan and the other trainers which makes it an enjoyable place to be. I cant recommend UP and more specifically Ruan highly enough. Just wish Id started sooner!

I have had several trainers at different gyms in the past but have always left injured which made me reluctant to join a gym and train again. However, I decided to start at UP after a positive referral and the difference in my fitness level is unbelievable! I train with Ruan who is extremely focused on correcting form, he is dedicated to the right program for me and is extremely professional. He is very encouraging and will push you to do your absolute best. Most of all, he understands the challenges that come along the way of your fitness journey and helps you successfully navigate them to reach your personal goals. While most gyms focus on temporary results, UP focuses on lifestyle changes and healthy habits that you can continue after leaving the gym.

Best personal training gym anywhere, ever. Youll get in cover model shape whilst gaining the tools and knowledge about working out and nutrition to keep it that way for the rest of your life. Trainers are super friendly, super helpful, really know what theyre doing and want you to learn and grow (literally) just as much as you do. If youre thinking about it, I cannot stress enough for you to bite the bullet, get stuck in and never look back.

I came across UP transformations many years ago, ‘Wow’ I would gasp at the pics, after making the initial contact I was ready for a big sales pitch but it wasn’t given, I was concerned about posey PTs with generic ideas and wondered whether I’m signing myself up for hours and hours of agonizing cardio..isn’t this all available on YouTube I would think??!!6 weeks into training with UP and I can gladly say I was proved wrong on all of these accounts. The environment is unbelievably focused, and tailored individually, it’s def goal driven but isn’t that what you sign up for? You are encouraged, challenged, and motivated. I have gained so much knowledge on what my body needs to look and feel it’s best and it’s been a education! My PT Celine is approachable, knowledgeable and working so hard to help me reach my personal bests, she is forever on hand with advice, support and when needed a Kick up the backside but I know its all for my benefit. I could not praise her for her efforts or attentiveness more. You will never regret making yourself a better person inside and out and UP and trainers like Céline can help you achieve that no matter where you are starting from. My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner.

In short, excellent. Been with UP for about 2 months and it has been a great experience from the start. My coach Ben is knowledgeable, motivating and genuinely loves what he does and it shows !!Facility is brand new and super clean. Easy parking and access and an overall great service and support.

I have been training at UP Gym Dubai Marina for almost 9 months now. While the gym is well appointed with an amazing view of the Palm and Dubai, my personal trainer Ruan is the only reason while I keep going back to the gym 3/4 times a week and continue to look forward to each of my training lesson. Not only Ruan is knowledgeable of what he does, he essentially takes the ownership of my total fitness journey incorporating meal plan, out of gym activities and any other health related concern. I could not in the past lift heavy weight due to back related issue but Ruan had devised a training plan which is not only very safe but also allow me to build strengthen with continuous improvement without any sort of injury. He would go out of his way to connect me with health professionals who can manage my overall health and diet. I, over the course of time while training with Ruan, reduced more than a third of my body fat ( I was not heavy to begin with) while toning by body with right mix of strength and muscle mass. Unless anyone try UP and specially Ruan, it will be hard to appreciate the transformation he can bring to anyone serious enough to make a change in their lifestyle and health!! Ruan is an absolute JEM for UP and specifically for his clients judging form the transformative change he brought in to lives of many! His ability to listen, care while taking full ownership of the result of his client is what makes the client like me go back to his training over and over again, and that’s what ultimately will make UP a real differentiator in the business of lifestyle management.

Best Gym for serious results. I have tried many gyms before but UP is the only gym that seriously focus on your results and helps you achieve it. I have seen my transformation and glad I went. Staff is nice, encouraging but most importantly very professional and eager to get you there. Special thanks to my coach Yosh for the professional coaching / advice and encouragements.

Hands down the best personal training experience I’ve had across +5 countries and +8 gyms/fitness companies.Team is extremely knowledgeable, welcoming, and dedicated to the clients’ long term health and fitness goals.The facility is also excellent, very spacious, clean, and well-managed.Would highly recommend this place for anyone who wants good value on money spent for fitness!

If you are looking for a physical and mental transformation I would strongly recommend Up Gym Marina, particularly the personal trainer Merat Trafeshi.Merat was very supportive throughout my journey with UP, he gave me the right tools and motivation needed to get stronger, leaner and healthier. Thank you!

I have been working with Ruan for the past 18 months at UP consistently improving my Health, Strength and fitness levels. The full support offering from UP in relation to your nutrition and training - alongside the motivation of the team for you to succeed is unrivaled in the region.I switched from DIFC branch to Dubai Marina when it opened and it works perfectly for me - convenient, easy to access, well laid out, no nonsense Gym.The programme will push you and will deliver positive results. If you are looking for a full lifestyle change or a fitness boost - this is your place.

Best gym you can ever be part of. Complete focus on achieving your targets and they have shared interests in that. Take care of nutrition, diet and of course the workout. Nothing can be ever better than this.

Ultimate Performance is worlds apart from any other gym I’ve ever been a member of (and there have been many) – I could talk about how spacious and well-equipped the facilities are (which they really are), or how they offer a highly-personalised exercise and nutrition programme (which they really do), but the most important factor for me has been their understanding of how connected your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing is.When I signed up eight weeks ago, I’d spent almost a year struggling with weight gain, high stress and insomnia. Needless to say, I was a bit of a mess and desperately needed to shake things up. Two of my friends had just been through a 14-week UP transformation, and not only were they in the best shape of their lives, they felt amazing too – I was sold. Two months in, and I’ve already dropped almost 8kgs, but more importantly, I can feel myself getting stronger, I’m sleeping through the night, and I’ve got so much extra energy, I’ve even started playing tennis again! This is genuinely the happiest and healthiest I’ve felt in a long time.Shout out to Ben, my wonderful trainer (and at times, therapist), who has the patience of a saint but pushes me beyond my self-imposed limits in every single session. UP requires serious commitment and is by no means an easy ride, but with the right support, guidance and discipline, you will see results and might even find yourself enjoying it along the way.

Personal training that goes beyond the gym floor. Trainers who are committed to your success, constantly reminding you of your goals. I would recommend for anyone who’s serious about body transformation.Big thank you to the entire team especially Tom W!

Great setup and Ryan my coach is amazing….highly recommended

A fantastic team of expert professionals who are passionate and intelligent in serving their client base. Have trained with Emma for several months now and had an excellent experience to date.Highly recommended.

Joining UP has really been transformational in so many ways, the physical results ive gotten over the last few months were expected, but more than that what im enjoying is the motivation and mental strength that UP and specially Yosh my trainer have been able to help me with..

Supportive, motivating, and importantly highly effective organization for achieving sustainable health, weight loss and fitness goals. More than a gym!

The quality of the trainers, the ethos and the results are all second to none. Highly recommended.

Joining UP’s 12-week transformation program in September 2020 was the best investment I made last year.Ultimate Performance is not the regular gym you’re used to in Dubai. They are definitely, by far, the best Personal Trainers out there. I just completed my program, and the outcome is impressive. I did not only exceed my weight loss target within the set timeframe, but I also gained valuable knowledge about nutrition, proper weight-lifting, and holistic body transformation.My trainer, Emma Rooney, exemplifies the best of UP by her professionalism, expertise, dedication, and commitment. Her laser focus and great attention to detail helped me maintain the right form in every exercise making every rep count. Emma is very knowledgeable and guides you through the technique behind every exercise and how to target and activate specific muscle groups. She helped me understand how nutrition impacts transformation results, and how to make better food choices while still enjoying my meals. Emma’s encouragement and constant motivation have taken me to the next level! Ultimate Performance is the place to be if you want to achieve guaranteed maximum results in a limited timeframe.I highly recommend Emma and Ultimate Performance. The professionalism and passion for what they do is second to none.

Whether you are new to this whole fitness deal or a seasoned professional, I honestly could not recommend anywhere over UP. There are so many positives... Ill do my best to not make this too long!For the TLDR folks - just take the plunge, its 100% worth the investment and as long as you follow what the trainer guides you you will not be disappointed GAURANTEED. They changed my life for the better; my physical health as well as my mental health - I cannot recommend them enough. Sign up, you wont regret it!1. The trainers are HANDS DOWN the best I have ever met within Dubai. I never felt more safe, respected, genuinely cared for and motivated than with my trainer (Emma Rooney) at UP. That being said, the friendliness, care and support shown by the other trainers at the gym also astounds me - Ive not been once where another trainer wouldnt comment something positive or show their support during my transformation period. Ive had the individual who helped sign me still reach out to just check on me (Chris Beavers) - what other gym establishment does that here? Ill tell you - there isnt one!2. The gym itself has such an encouraging vibe/aura to it. Everyone is so welcoming from the staff to the trainers to the other clients there. The beauty is, as well, that the people who are there - they are there to TRAIN, and are focused on their session with their trainer. Previously Id feel uncomfortable working out at other establishments because I felt like I didnt fit the gym-body stereotype, that people would be watching me while I trained, judgmental looks or just trying to ignore that group who hang around the watercooler making you wonder why theyre even at the gym...you know what Im talking about :)3. Just go ahead and do it already. If youve read this far its because you know this is the place for you. Go ahead and take the plunge, just be prepared for a whole new you that you may never thought was possible!

Up best experience i ever had in bodybuilding with personal trainer Ruan suart my trainer changed my prospective view about this sport he teach me a lot about the nutrition value in the game even when i wanted to give up he was always keep motivating me and encouraging me to give my best to reach my goals his knowledge and techniques is amazing the results i had was better than my expectations and made extreme changes in my body shape and my nutrition life stylethanks Ruan and regards for all the up staff

Joined UP on the recommendation of various colleagues whod achieved incredible results and it certainly lived up to the billing!The experience right from start to finish with my trainer Ruan was smooth - He genuinely took the time out to understand everything about my day to day life, habits and recommended a diet plan which could realistically be followed - this was key in helping me achieve my weight loss goals. On the gym floor as well, he was extremely professional and obsessed over perfect execution and technique, not to mention - always pushed my to (and beyond) my limits, this helped me set new Personal Records on a regular basis which was always thrilling!Few key things that particularly stood out - Ruan was always particular about measurements, photos, ensuring I remained on track with my diet and exercise on a daily basis outside and also support with managing social/work/dining out situations to ensure that the training objectives arent compromised.I was also impressed by UPs commitment to maintenance and adherence to COVID Safety, Hygiene and Sanitation standards - limited clients and trainers on the floor, masks, continuous wipe downs of every piece of equipment and notifications if there are any cases detected from visitors to the gym accompanied with a closure to deep clean - honestly one cannot ask for more on this front.Highly recommend Ruan and UP to everyone out there!
