HIIT
Forty-five minutes that fly by. You work, you rest, you go again. Beginners welcome, options for every level.
A women’s space in the centre of Bedford, open every hour of every day. Train your way, with every class on the timetable included.
The first day at a new gym can feel like a lot. The kit, the crowd, knowing where to put yourself. Activ8 is Bedford’s ladies-only gym, built so that first day feels easier and every day after it feels yours.
A spread of formats across the week, each led by a coach who knows the room. The full weekly timetable is just below; reserve your spot in the member app.

All classes ladies-only · Included with every membership
Every detail of the gym is built so you can show up, do your thing, and leave better than you arrived. The space holds the standard. You bring whatever kind of day you’ve had.
Built without windows facing the street, with the gym tucked behind a private entrance. The town keeps going, the floor stays yours.
Plenty of space, properly maintained machines, free weights you can actually reach for.
Individual cubicles for changing and showering. Quick in, quick out, whenever it works for you.
Female trainers on the floor most hours, happy to walk you through anything. Ask whenever you like, it’s part of your membership.
Tap in with the app any hour of the day. Train at six, train at midnight, train when the rest of life lets you.
A quiet room with a sofa, a kettle, and an open door. Wind down after a heavy session, catch up with a friend, or meet the regulars on your timetable. It’s part of why people stay.
Plain pricing, one membership. Every plan opens every facility, every class, every floor from day one. There’s a one-off £14.99 to join, and that’s the only extra you’ll see.
“I was terrified to join a gym before this one. Now I come three or four times a week, and I actually look forward to it.”
Two minutes from the Riverside, ten from Bedford station, with parking right outside. Pop in for a tour whenever reception is open and have a look around before you decide.
Most of it is below. If something else is on your mind, ring 01234 488 247 or pop in for a chat.
Yes, properly. The whole space, the whole timetable, the whole time. There’s nowhere on the floor a man would walk through. The building itself is built without see-through external windows, so nobody outside can see in either.
Unit 2A, Riverside Square, 1 Merchant Place, Horne Lane, MK40 1AR. Two minutes from the Riverside, ten from the train station, with parking right outside.
Yes. Every one. HIIT, LBT, Circuits, Pump and Pilates, on a timetable that runs morning through evening. Book your spot through the member app.
Yes. Members tap in with the app any hour of any day, every day of the year. The desk is staffed Monday to Friday 9:00 to 17:30 and Saturdays 08:30 to 12:30 if you’d rather see a face for a tour or a chat.
From £32.95 a month, which works out at just £7.60 a week over the year. There’s a one-off £14.99 to join, and that’s the lot. No upgrades, no add-ons, no separate class fees. Blue Light card holders, get in touch — we offer a discount.
You’ll fit right in. Half the room was new when they started. Female trainers are on the floor every day to walk you through anything you’re unsure about, and that help is part of your membership.
Four separate changing rooms and showers, no sharing. No queues, no awkward shared mirrors, no squeezing past anyone. In, train, out.
Yes — once you’ve served the minimum term, just give us notice and walk away. Monthly memberships run on a 12-month contract; six-month and annual plans run their term first.
Drop in for a tour any time during reception hours, or sign up online and try it for yourself. No pressure either way.
