Reviews

"I wanted to take a moment to share my incredible journey with Boss Fit gym. Since joining in March 2024, I am incredibly grateful for the impact it’s had on my life. Before joining, I had never been a member of any gym before. However, now I cannot imagine my life without it. Boss Fit offers more than a place to work out and improve your physical appearance. It is a space where you can cultivate mental strength and resilience. Each drop of sweat, every repetition, and every minute of cardio pushes me beyond my limits and helps me build mental fortitude. The challenges I face in the gym have taught me the value of persistence and never giving up. I want to thank the trainers for creating a supportive and motivating environment. I can't wait for my journey to continue and to see where it takes me next."  Happy Member
"I had Jan Otto as my instructor at Boss Fit gym for four months. Jan's background in multiple sports came to the fore during our sessions. Training was often focused on building functional strength which has stood me in good stead outside the gym. He always kept things fresh with new exercises. I am happy with his work ethic, knowledge and way of explaining and would recommend Jan to friends and family."  Jacques
"Woke up thankful, and motivated with very sore muscles. Thank you to Boss Fit’s Jaco, Nicole, Marzanne, and Jan. Michelle's 4th round almost killed me. Celebrating 98kg to 88kg  - 10kg loss!”  Jessica Stevens
“Ek wil net baie dankie sê aan Boss Fit en sy span, ek het nooit die nodige motiveering gahad om op te staan en by die gym uit te kom nie, julle het my gedruk en gedra tot waar ek nou is en ek is seker daarvan daar gaan net nog verbeteringe kom met tyd. Ek voel great! Ek is tans 9.4kg af in ses maande en ek het sentimeters verloor en opgetel op al die regte plekke. Baie dankie Boss Fit, julle maak Gansbaai lekker.”  Pietie Trautman
“Ek wil net vir elkeen van julle by Boss Fit en elke lid dankie sê. Dankie dat niemand voel hy of sy word geoordeel nie. Dankie dat julle ons altyd motivate, help, luister en raad gee. Dankie dat ek en almal om my so gemaklik kan voel, al kom mens partykeer op n punt wat dit voel of daar geen verandering is nie. Ek het nooit gedink dat gym so deel van my leefwyse sal raak nie. Danki Boss Fit!”  Riana Groenewald

“I lost 10kg at Boss Fit gym and still going strong. Thank you!”  Colette BF
"I spent a week in Gansbaai and immediately looked for a gym. My Airbnb host told me to check out Boss Fit. I received a warm welcome on arrival. Jaco is a very nice guy. It's a small gym with everything you need for a good workout. Dumbbells up to 40kg+, barbell plus enough weights, and proper machines like hack squat, ham curl, etc. All the machines work and the gym is clean. They also do small group classes. The trainers are very friendly. Jaco is very hospitable and even gave me a free T-shirt when I left on the last day. I enjoyed working out there and will return on my next visit.”  Rinus, Netherlands
“When I first joined the gym at Boss Fit, I decided to start personal training. It helped me to find my groove and lose weight consistently, which kept me motivated. Since starting my Boss Fit journey, I have lost 89cm and 11.5kg. Now I am fitter and happier than ever. Thank you Jaco Louw and Boss Fit. Finding fitness changed my life and health.”  Michelle Booker
