The 6am classes are the ones people tell their pals about. Done before seven, showered and at work by eight, the evening free. If you have been searching for an early class in Clydebank, this is what ours are like.
What runs at 6am
6am classes Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. Fifty minutes, coached from the first minute, finished by seven. One-to-one slots follow, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 7am to 10am; Thursday 8am to 10am, for anyone who prefers one-to-one before work. Thursday morning is Personal Training only.
Who is in the gym
Shift workers, nurses, tradesmen, parents who need to be back for the school run, people who commute into Glasgow and know the Expressway is quieter at ten past seven. Ages from twenties to sixties, beginners beside regulars, everyone scaled to their level. Classes are capped at 30, so everyone gets coached.
Getting out of bed
- Book it and tell someone. The 6am crowd works because people expect you. Message me the night before and you will not want to be the one who did not show.
- Kit by the door, bag in the car. Decide nothing at 5:30. You are not a decision-maker at 5:30.
- Two weeks. Everyone hates the first three or four. By the end of week two the alarm stops feeling like an assault. Give it the fortnight before you judge it.
- Bed by half ten. The 6am class is really a sleep habit. The sleep guide has the rest.
What to eat first
Nothing, or next to nothing. A glass of water, a coffee if you want it, a banana or half a slice of toast if you know you get light-headed. A proper protein breakfast after, which is the meal that matters. There is a full guide on the early meal here.
Parking, the door, the dark
Spectrum House in Clydebank Business Park, free parking at the door, lit and quiet at that hour. Singer station is a short walk if you are coming by train. The first-visit page shows you the door.
