About CG Fitness Retreats

Connor had a vision of travelling the world with like-minded, fitness enthusiasts and creating an experience like none other; delivering fitness and wellbeing sessions while experiencing new cultures and environments. The team now consists of expert trainers, with many years of experience from professional athletes to complete fitness beginners. Yoga instructors set the spiritual mood for the trip, with early morning meditation and yoga practices. Finally, private chefs, provide the team with fresh, culture-rich food from the local area! However this is not just a boot camp or training camp abroad, this is a time for you too, disconnect-breath- reconnect with yourself and your life. Expect lots of opportunities to explore, experience and laugh!

CG fitness at its best My reservations and apprehensions were on top of my worry list when it came to this retreat as I just didn’t know what to expect and how I would perform either by myself or with the rest of the group and although I train with Connor anyway it’s a different experience when working with him on a one to one basis,s. But I can safely say the experience the environment and the whole atmosphere of the group and one to one sessions were amazing. The yoga 🧘‍♀️ I did for the very first time was a great experience something I would definitely recommend especially after a good workout 🏋️‍♀️. Working in a great surrounding with good weather was an added bonus. The food was exceptional and learned to cook in different ways. And definitely will be trying some recipes out Connor as always hard working, works at your pace and definitely would recommend anyone who is looking to better your health and have fun at the same time 😃

Best boot camp I've attended I don't generally write reviews but really wanted to comment on CG fitness Retreats. Such a great experience, this boot camp really works and worth every penny. Fab instructors friendly and great fun makes everyone feel welcomed. A great range of exercises and equipment. What a better place to exercise than out in the sunshine the location of the villa was good, not too far from beach in walking distance of stores. We also had nutrition tips and food workshops, food was excellent. If you are not used to going to the gym, instructors prepare you well. Did I say beautiful location and plenty of downtime for excursions or just to simply relax. I will definitely attend the next one and would recommend to friends, colleagues and family.

Lost for words! Lost for words!. This was a great first experience. I could tell as soon as i enquired about the retreat that these guys really knew about fitness. Although i travelled alone i quickly slotted in with the rest of the team. Although we were all at mixed abilities and strengths the personal pt sessions were my favourite as they tailored to all of our individual skillsets The food was absolutely amazing and i even gave yoga a go despite me at the start barely being able to touch my toes. i fully recommend everyone to give the retreat a go whether you think you are fitness expert or you are new to training. Thanks Connor and see you on the next one!

An amazing week! I had such an amazing time on the fitness retreat in Portugal! As someone who does little exercise and isn’t a regular gym-goer, I was a little apprehensive beforehand and wasn’t sure what to expect! But after doing the retreat I can say that I would 100% do another one and would recommend CG Fitness Retreats to anybody, no matter their fitness level. Connor is a fantastic PT and got to know my fitness levels/capabilities really quickly, and made sure I was comfortable in the workouts I was doing while still being challenged. There was a mix of solo and group sessions, and I am so grateful to have been with such a friendly, supportive and fun group of people. For me there was the perfect balance between fitness and downtime. I feel really good about how active I was during the week, but I also still feel like I had a holiday! Getting up earlier for the group sessions meant I felt like I was making the most out of everyday, and we did so much throughout the week. We stayed in the most stunning villa, which was really spacious and had the most amazing facilities, including a heated pool, gym, cinema room, pool table and table tennis table! It’s up to you how you spend your time, and there is no obligation to attend all the sessions if you’d rather do other things. However I’m really glad I threw myself into everything as I’ve tried so many things I wouldn’t have otherwise done, including boxercise, weight training and cycling. The villa was in a great location, and we went out as a group in the local area. The food was one of the highlights for me - Chef Flo’s cooking is unreal and I found every meal became my new favourite! I want to recreate so many of his dishes now that I’m back home! Overall, I had so much fun on the retreat. I’m proud I pushed myself out of my comfort zone, and to anyone like me who might be feeling unsure whether it’s for them, I can honestly say you won’t regret it!

Best Retreats!! Well where do I start!! This is my second year on the retreat and I'm honestly saying I'd love to them all in the future! The training was more intense(May be because the villa had a gym downstairs) 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 The little touches when we arrived T-shirt on beds and a little card with a QR to scan for pictures fantastic very impressive. The group where very welcoming and so lovely to get on The chef most definitely pulled it out the bag once again (but I knew he would look forward to the food) Conner you're doing amazing the training tips and training I loved in a crazy way sure got the adrenaline flowing. These retreats are going to grow. Finally the yoga which was just amazing and very refreshing Thankyou The villa this time was absolutely stunning loved everything about it too Thankyou once again guys
