Southport, England, United Kingdom

Anvil Gym is the oldest gym in Southport, and has been providing body building and powerlifting services for nearly 40 years. Both myself and my boys trained there for a number of years and were saddened to hear that in late 2022 the gym was pending closure.Both my sons stepped in and bought the equipment and during the early part of 2023 my family and some of our members renovated 2 new ground floor units and moved in, and so Anvil Gym, yet again returned to providing a top class training environment for our members.I now have taken a back seat, but continue advising my sons in all aspects of running the business, from marketing to membership retention, IT systems to financial management, human resources to health and safety.
