THE GYMNASIUM - training & lifestyle centre

The training sessions with Malcom are exceptional. I have been an athlete most of my life and been part of many training sessions/camps, but this one has really helped me to elevate my strength. The combination of mobility and strength training has made me a much stronger cyclist and runner. Malcom is extremely knowledgeable and versed in what he does, so I can only recommend it. You will not be disappointed!

Malcolm is unlike any other personal trainer I have worked with before. He uses some unconventional equipment and exercises (not used as standard in most traditional gym-training settings I have been in). That, plus the fact that no two sequences or sessions are the same keeps the training fun and interesting. I can feel the results of our work after every session. He also has in-depth knowledge of anatomy, and knows when to pull back, and so although we work hard, I never feel like I am at risk of pushing myself to the point of injury.Malcom is without question the best trainer I have worked with to date, and I can’t recommend him enough.

Excellent training, core, mobility and flexibility. I've been doing classes online and it's made a massive difference to increasing my all round fitness and maintaining it.

In early 2020, i had a spinal fusion resulting in 20 months of minimal activity, because i was afraid of injury. in this time i lost confidence in my body’s capabilities and added unnecessary weight to my physique. Since working out with Malcolm, i have regained trust and strength in my body and its capabilities. I feel strong, capable and BONUS i’m losing weight too.i’ve been with the Gymnasium 6-months and fully intend on staying a life-time member.

A completely tailored training experience. I was in Cape Town for a few weeks and was used to having a personal trainer. I found Malcolm and he was very easy to work with. From the beginning he identified some specific weaknesses that were likely contributing to ongoing discomfort when I trained with weights. He tailored a short program for me that helped to increase my mobility and strengthen weak points. After only a few sessions I can tell my posture is improving and I was more balanced overall. His sessions felt more like whole body physiotherapy than personal training. Highly recommend him to take your training to the next level. Thanks Malcolm

The experience of training with Malcolm was amazing!!!! In the month that we trained I saw my body quickly transform, gain muscle and flexibility. When I came to Malcolm I asked him to focus on arms and butt, we worked out together 2-3 times a week and I saw a change in my body so quickly. I loved his dedication to finding different exercises that truly had an impact in my body! I would recommend Malcom to anyone who wants to commit to an exercise training that REALLY works!!!!!!! THANK YOU Malcolm I will see you back at your Gym soon!!!!!!!

Having told Malcom about my forthcoming skiing holiday he suggested about doing some preparation work for it. I realised whilst on the slopes that the preparation exercises paid off as I felt fit and strong on my legs and core muscles. I was ready like a pro and it was one of my best skiing trips.

I can’t recommend Malcolm highly enough. I’ve been training with him for 3 months now and I’m really feeling the difference. Particularly with my trail running strength and endurance. He’s brilliant at motivating me to keep pushing. Thank you!

Malcolm is Magic! After just three months of two sessions per week my body is changing, my posture has improved and I feel strong and grounded. The magic is: we do work hard but always leave energized. What else is there? The room is aesthetically pleasing, the tunes and company always nice, Malcolm has an endlessly varied mix of exercises, knows every muscle in the body and keeps all of us focused. I highly, highly recommend it.
