An independent gym and personal training space in Southport has revealed exciting plans for expansion!
From The Block Fitness was opened by Personal Trainer Lisa Little in October 2020 at The Waterfront in Southport, next to Bliss Hotel.
Local mum and business owner Lisa has battled through a series of lockdowns during the past two years of the Covid pandemic.
But, supported by her many regular clients, she has come through strongly and is looking to expand what she offers to people of all ages who are looking to improve their health, fitness and wellbeing.
Visitors will soon be able to enjoy a fully equipped members gym and chill area, where people can take their time and stay as long as they want.
From The Block Fitness offers a variety of support including personal training, group training, circuit training and more – all at great value for money and without the big sell for long contracts that some larger gyms are so keen to tie people into.
Lisa said: “I offer pay as you go, and that will remain a very big part of my business.
“I truly believe I have created a welcoming environment where people who for whatever reason do not feel confident or comfortable in a gym, feel safe and happy and more importantly are falling in love with fitness and themselves.
“From the Block fitness is a cool, unique, friendly and non judgemental space. We are open to absolutely anyone of any level of fitness. We have welcomed clients of all ages, from 17 to 83!”

The first few months in business – after setting up during the Covid-19 pandemic – has not been easy.
Lisa is very grateful for all the support she has received.
She said: “Recently after a truly challenging first year in business, I was faced with a huge, very real decision on whether to continue or not.
“The response I received and the messages of support were overwhelming.
“I realised that this business is so much more than a gym to people, it has become a sanctuary.
“This all helped me to come to the decision to not only stay, but make it bigger and better!

“Soon, as well as all our personal training options and classes, we will have a fully equipped members gym and chill area, where our clients can stay as long as they like.
“We also already have an in-house aesthetics practitioner and a team of personal trainers, so with these very exciting new plans, we hope to welcome lots of new clients to be part of our already loyal From The Block Fitness family.”
