Functional Fitness
Functional fitness is training that prepares your body for real‑life activities — not just the gym floor.
At Commandofit Bristol, our functional fitness classes focus on movements you use every day: squatting, lifting, pushing, pulling, twisting, walking, jumping, and bending. This approach improves strength, balance, mobility, power, and conditioning while reducing the risk of injuries.
Our gym at Market Industrial Estate Yatton is fully equipped with top notch equipment, allowing us to deliver safe, effective sessions for all experience levels. Every class is coached by expert coaches who ensure movements are performed correctly, helping members train confidently and progress consistently.
This style of training is suitable for beginners and experienced athletes alike. We scale everything to the individual, so you can choose the level that suits you on any given day and continue to improve over time.
Personal Training
Alongside group classes, Commandofit Bristol offers personal training for members who want a more tailored experience.
Personal training allows us to focus specifically on your goals, movement quality, and training history. Whether you’re returning from injury, building strength, improving fitness, or preparing for a specific challenge, our coaching experience ensures your training is effective, safe, and structured.
All training is based on sound principles of movement, progression, and recovery. We prioritise long‑term results over quick fixes, creating programmes that support consistency, confidence, and real progress.
Meet the Owner and Head Coach
Commandofit Bristol is owned and led by Joe Cottle, a former Royal Marines Commando who established the gym in 2014.
What started as bootcamp sessions in a park in Yate grew into a full‑time fitness business, eventually leading to the opening of our own gym at 14 Market Industrial Estate, in Joe’s hometown of Yatton. Running Commandofit Bristol is a long‑held ambition and a reflection of his passion for helping others train properly.
Joe brings eight years of military experience, including operational tours in Afghanistan, along with extensive experience delivering physical training in high‑pressure environments. He is a fully qualified Level 4 Advanced Personal Trainer, specialising in strength and conditioning, Olympic weightlifting, and functional fitness.
Safety and coaching quality matter. Every session is designed to help members train hard while protecting their bodies for the long term.
