Katie and I joined CrossFit OL1 to get into better shape for our wedding. We weren’t starting from a terrible place, but we both knew we wanted to feel fitter, healthier, and more confident for the big day.CrossFit OL1 gave us exactly that. Every session pushed us, kept things interesting, and helped us improve without ever feeling intimidated.Alongside the training, we also made some positive changes to our diets, and combining the two made a massive difference. The structure, motivation, and consistency from CrossFit OL1 helped us build healthier habits overall, not just inside the gym.Sam and his team were so supportive when we joined and the atmosphere was very welcoming.It quickly became something we genuinely looked forward to doing together. We both saw great results physically and mentally, and it made a huge difference leading up to our wedding.Couldn’t recommend CrossFit OL1 enough for anyone wanting to challenge themselves, improve their lifestyle and if you have a goal in mind, They will help you get there.It genuinely worked wonders for us and the work we put in at OL1 with the help from Sam and the team genuinely contributed to our wedding day!Mr and Mrs Taylor

10 sessions in and feeling amazing. The whole place has got a great family vibe about it. Everyone is so welcoming and positive, we are all attending for different reasons. The coaches are so supportive and if your unsure just ask. They offer alternative exercises if you need them, I personally struggle with my wrists and nerve damage, loads of alternatives for me to do. I am on the 6 week starter and 4 weeks in, will definitely be staying on.

I’ve just completed my first CrossFit class with CrossFit OL1 and I honestly really enjoyed it. I was quite nervous beforehand as I’d never done CrossFit before, but Sam and Nathan were both so welcoming and reassuring from the moment I arrived. The members were also really friendly and made me feel comfortable straight away.The class itself was great — Nathan demonstrated each exercise clearly before we started and was encouraging throughout the session, which really helped build my confidence.A really positive first experience and I’m already looking forward to booking my next CrossFit class, as well as trying a Hyrox class with CrossFit OL1!

I decided to try the Ol1 6 week challenge after a long period of not caring for myself , I managed to persuade my overweight son to try with me at the same time ( I couldn't get him to come to a conventional gym because he was to self conscious) we met Sam the owner before committing and we were both instantly blown over ,Sam explained everything and was exceptionally easy to be honest with, after our first session we both came out on such a high and all the people who go there are so nice ,normal and encouraging, we both feel so much better all round , all the coaches are really helpful and informative.I would implore anybody to at least try it , one of the best things ive ever done genuinely

Been attending OL1 since I moved to Oldham, last year November. This is more than a ‘CrossFit gym’ but a community who never judged me yet welcomed me with open arms. Was very hesitant to join as I’d never done most exercises but the coaches are very knowledgeable and take their time teaching you the right technique. I’m still learning but I feel right at home with amazing support from the members and coaches!

Amazing place, from the facilities to the coaches. The community spirit is brilliant and everyone just wants to help everyone else. I'm on the 6 week programme but will definitely stay on. It's worked wonders for my strength, conditioning and confidence. Highly recommended. Thanks again, Bash.

I joined because I needed a change and wanted something that would challenge me. I have got to say it's the best decision I have made joining OL1. Along with great workouts, the atmosphere and encouragement from members and coaches is fantastic 🙌

You get out what you put in. But people around you do help

This place is absolutely class! Quality coaching with a great set of like-minded people in the class, all at different stages in their fitness journey.I would 100% recommend CrossFit OL1. Stop thinking about it, just get in touch and get down there and take a look at the place and get a feel for the vibes.

I spent a year hesitating — telling myself OL1 CrossFit was too expensive, too intense, too full of super-fit people doing things I couldn’t possibly keep up with. I thought I’d be out of place. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Yes, you can join a cheaper gym. But how long before the motivation fades, the routine gets stale, and you stop showing up? OL1 is different. From the moment I walked in, I was met with encouragement, energy, and a community that lifts you — literally and emotionally. The coaches are amazing, but it’s the people that make it magic. Every session, someone’s beside you, pushing you to go a little harder, lift a little heavier, and believe a little more in yourself. It’s not about being the fittest in the room — it’s about becoming the strongest version of you. Since joining, I’ve hit PBs I never thought possible. I’ve nailed my first double under. I’ve lifted weights I hadn’t touched in years. And I’ve done it all with a team that celebrates every win like it’s their own. Joining OL1 CrossFit was hands down the best decision I’ve made for my health, my mindset, and my confidence. I’m fitter, stronger, and more motivated than ever — and I’m just getting started.

Hands down the best fitness community I’ve ever been part of.CrossFit OL1 isn’t just a gym — it’s a mindset shift. The coaching is world-class, the atmosphere is electric, and the people genuinely lift each other up (figuratively and literally!). Whether you’re new to training or coming back after a break, you’ll feel welcomed, supported and pushed to your full potential.The variety of sessions — from CrossFit to HYROX to strength work — keeps things fresh, and the results speak for themselves. I came in just looking to improve my fitness… but what I found was a group of people who challenge you to be better every single day.Can’t recommend it highly enough. If you’re even thinking of trying it — do it. You won’t regret it.

Having contacting Sam at crossFit OL1 with a underlining medical issue, with his help and the help of the other coaches I am now able to train and join in the sessions, the staff are very welcoming and friendly, they go out of there way to check up and make sure your ok which puts your mind at rest, it's a great atmosphere, there is know pressure you can train at your own pace. I would recommend CrossFit OL1.

OL1 is such an amazing place to train. I started coming to the Mum & Baby classes after a friend recommended it to me and I have not been disappointed!Our coach Angie is BRILLIANT! The classes are tailored to suit all the mums, whether you gave birth weeks ago or months ago. Angie always keeps an eye on us to make sure we are carrying out the exercises safely and correctly whilst pushing us each week to progress.Not only do I enjoy the class but my little twins do too! They’re quite happy sat watching us workout and playing with their toys. There’s no stress if babies cry or need a feed so don’t let that be a worry either.It’s not just a gym, everyone is super friendly and welcoming☺️

We visited CrossFit OL1 with our Scout Group. 24 kids all working hard and learning more about being active and trying out the various exercises and different pieces of equipment. The gym and facilities are fantastic and everyone was very welcoming. Rob the coach put on a great session and all the kids worked hard but had a brilliant time. Thanks for helping us out and welcoming the kids to your amazing gym. Hopefully this will have inspired some of them to get into fitness and be more active.

My son attended a session with scouts last night and we cannot recommend enough. All of the children had a great time and and my son is now interested in joining a gym.

I’ve have recently joined this gym. Everybody is really friendly so my nerves went very quickly. The sessions are amazing. This is my 3rd week and I feel so energetic.
