Bout Fitness Mount Maunganui - Bout Fitness Mount Maunganui 5C Hull Road

Great trainers, environment and people

What a way to start the day. Bout crew. The vibe is high.. hyynnnnaaaartt

Awesome place, great vibe, great staff. Love the idea of changing circuits, and workout done and dusted in 45 minutes!

Love this place! Best thing I’ve ever done for myself physically and mentally. The Mount crew is the best as well ?

Best gym environment to work out in! The staff are genuine, super encouraging, and always make an effort!

I joined Bout Fitness to improve my mental health and fitness. Unfortunately I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Bout Fitness with a specific trainers behaviour and now with the way management has handled my complaint. I made a formal complaint to the owners explaining how their staff member was not upholding Bout Fitness’s core values. Their trainers comments made me feel unsafe, anxious and upset. Management and myself had an agreed outcome as a result of my complaint - I would be informed of a documented staff discussion in August. With extreme disappointment, management did not follow through and I was not informed of the outcome. I have now handed in my notice at Bout Fitness and was willing to leave it at that. Yesterday 24.09.20 - I saw a post on Bout Fitnesses Instagram promoting Mental Health Awareness and sharing stories of other members. I was disappointed as I did not have the same experience and made a comment stating “I wish I had the same experience at Bout Fitness.” My comment was soon deleted, this happened three times. I was soon directly messaged by the owner, they highlighted my situation was dealt with and asked “if it be left at that”. My point of writing that comment was to allow for other members to speak out about there experiences if they too are struggling at Bout Fitness - like I had. Instead I was silenced. Mental Health awareness should also involve discussions around the causes of mental health issues and the impacts they have on people. Sharing my experience may open opportunities for others to speak out. Opening up about our experiences and struggles is apart of the beginning stages of healing, instead I was silenced by having my comment deleted repeatedly and told “it be left at that” which seems to be a strange way of promoting mental health awareness. Both good and bad experiences from members need to be shared. I understand many have enjoyed being members and for a moment so did I. Until my well-being was at risk due to a staff member and now being silenced by the owner.

Literally one of the highlights of my day! Never felt so at home at a gym before. Love the workouts, the boxing, the bubbly trainers and how social everyone at the gym is. Wouldn’t want to go anywhere else :)

Have been at bout for a little bit now and I have absolutely loved every moment. Bout has pushed me to start looking after myself physically and mentally it has been beneficial as well. The whole team at Bout are amazing and have made me feel welcomed from the moment I joined. Could not recommend enough!
