Amazing CG Fitness Retreat The CG Fitness was my first fitness retreat abroad. As a mature reasonably fit person l was amazed at the amount of energy l got from all the exercises. Well planned out schedule Connor the PT trainer was there at hand to answer all queries regarding health and gave one to one personal training sessions. The group exercises were totally fun as you were inspired by others. On the flip side yoga was also added to the schedule so you could have a really good stretching session after invigorating gym session. We did core, abs, boxing, running, cycling, kayaking the list go on and on. The food was amazing all hand cooked from fresh natural ingredients by the amazing Flo The Chef. On the evening your time is your own to see the sights of Portugal as there are many things to do there. I would definitely recommend this trip with CG Fitness Retreat. Great bunch of people and l have walked away with life long gym friends. Connor the PT is an amazing thoughtful person who takes time out with you to explain what every exercise does to your body. Go try it and see you won't regret it.

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 incredible week!👏🏻🙌🏻 The retreat was amazing. Connor picked an amazing location and every day had an intinerary which was full of activities and lots of free time also which managed to make it feel like a fight camp and a holiday at the same time🤣 The Yoga/Stretching sessions with Glenda were very useful and great throughout the week. Flo's food was incredible from breakfast, lunch and dinner and he was very accomodating for any dietary needs people had. Connor was a great motivator in the group sessions and in the one to one sessions also, and in both you were able to push yourself with his encouragement and the encouragement of the group. My personal highlight was the (optional) run club in the mornings! Connor was great at organising excursions and activities outside of the Villa too, allowing us to explore Vilamoura and other places around Portugal. Overall, it was an amazing week and I will definitely be doing them whenever I can!

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 😃

What a great experience! The CG Fitness Retreat was an amazing experience. It has really helped me physically and mentally. After covid it's been really hard to find motivation to eat well and exercise, I hadn't even realised how much I'd let work and life consume me. Being supported by Connor and Flo's expertise in training and nutrition as well as being surrounded by welcoming people really helped amplify the experience. Glenda was amazing, having not done much yoga before I didn't know how well I'd do. She was very accommodating for all abilities which helped me feel comfortable. The energy of the team was contagious, having free time for excursions and activities really helped the group bond. I will definitely be booking on again for future retreats. I'd 100% recommend to anyone!
