The £4.7m Gosling gym, part of Gosling Sports Park in Welwyn Garden City, has joined forces with Club Training to launch a new personal training initiative for the upcoming summer months.

The 100-station gym will be hosting the new partnership with Gosling & Club Training offering a special free trial personal training session for all - whether to improve body shape, get fit and healthy, or for fun - the new personal training programme is set to offer more training options for its members.

A spokesperson for Gosling said: "Our new partnership with Club Training has been a great success so far, and we have already had a lot of interest in the new PT sessions."

Head PT instructor from Club Training, Steve Plunkett, added: "We offer a friendly and professional service and champion the belief that good personal training is more than just an hour on the gym floor, it is also about lifestyle management, sensible diet and identifying any barriers that may hinder training. We are enjoying our partnership with Gosling and its fantastic facilities. We look forward to welcoming even more people in the run up to summer - all levels welcome to come along."

Separately, Gosling has also launched the Advanced Apprenticeship in Sporting Excellence (AASE) for tennis. The two-year course, which includes education and tennis training, results in an NVQ Level 3 in Achieving Excellence in Sport Performance.

A spokesperson said: "At Gosling International High Performance Centre we feel the Advanced Apprenticeship in Sporting Excellence scheme is an exciting opportunity for players to maximise their tennis potential and gain a qualification in an area they all enjoy

"We also understand that academic study is important and we strive to keep schools informed of the scheme and its requirements. Gosling IHPC have the facilities to offer a number of squads for players to choose from to ensure that they can train and study at times which are convenient to them."
