Kat Parnell Sports Massage and Personal Training – Ipswich

Power hour rocks! Cannot rate this class and Kat highly enough. I’ve been a gym goer for 20 years and have never been pushed to work so hard in a class or been given the support and encouragement to do so. It’s not just down to the exercises either, but the motivation given by Kat and the other members. I feel very lucky to have found such an awesome team to be part of.

I've been dropping in to Power Hour classes for a while now as I'm a keen cyclist/runner and have been looking to improve on strength to support these disciplines and prevent injury. Kat is great at keeping me involved and along with the PH group constantly inspires me to do more, push harder and go further! Jamie's early sessions are also a welcome addition to the timetable- keeping me motivated and even doing the class with me!

I started going to power hour back in 2018 and then joined back on the power hour fun in the first lockdown. Kat is one of those trainers that makes the workout fun , don’t get me wrong it’s hard and there are some points where you’ll question why you are there , then Kat will shout “It’s your penultimate round buddy!” And you’ll push though. I can’t recommend her personally and professionally enough, as well as power hour itself. There are loads of options of times of classes and the addition of Coach Jamie is great too! It’s not just a class, it’s a support network.

I had been thinking about joining power hour for a while after recommendations from friends, but was dubious I wouldn’t be ‘fit’ enough to join in - but I needn’t have been cautious as everyone was so welcoming! It is by far the hardest I have ever pushed myself physically, having done years of gym workouts and gym classes this was the next level - and I am amazed at what my body has been able to achieve in the few short weeks i have been attending. Kat always makes you push that little bit more - when you think you can’t and are on the floor but somehow you always have that little bit extra inside and afterwards feel (completely exhausted) but amazing!

Kat has created a great community at power hour. It’s a friendly, personal, really well equipped gym. If you want to be pushed to work harder than you thought possible - you won’t be disappointed. Suitable for the really fit and the not so fit.
