"Three years ago I had a serious cycling accident and after recovery, the family said 'no more road cycling', so I had to find an active alternative to cycling. I settled on spin bike riding and Activ8 gym for a trial period of six months. I have attended Activ8 and spin bike twice a week and golf for the past two and half years. With the support and guidance of the Activ8 staff. I have been able to reach a level of fitness far superior to my age of 75. The cardiologist 12 months ago recorded a poor ECG and spoke of the problems I faced with a structural heart problem. My last ECG was very good and spoke of the reduction of medication and maintaining the activities at the current level. With results like this I no hesitation recommend Activ8"
