Hi, I am Dave Hughes. I am the owner of The Alpha Unit 24 hour Gym here in Rhydymain. 

​

I started the gym back in 2015 when it was nothing but a dusty old unit, a punch bag and a few weights.

​

I decided to start The Alpha Unit after I realised how much exercise and training helped boost and improve my mental health.

As The Alpha Unit grew so did my enthusiasm to help others who struggled with their mental health too. I am a level 3 Personal Trainer as well as a Licensed Martial Arts Instructor. 

​

In 2018 The Alpha Unit expanded into a larger unit where the additional floor space enabled me to install more equipment, Cardio, weight machines, free weights as well as specialist equipment like Atlas Stones.

 

In addition, The Alpha Unit now has its own clothing range and The alpha Unit is now a brand in its own right. 

​

I have made The Alpha Unit a place where people can train and exercise in a relaxed and safe, friendly environment. I welcome all to The Alpha Unit as equals and I work hard to help and ensure every person achieves their own personal goals.  

​

The Alpha Unit has a welcoming, non-judgemental atmosphere based on and ethos of kindness, helpfulness and where arrogance and over inflated ego's are left outside the door.  

​

We have many different classes being run or if you prefer to just workout on the equipment you are able to do so. You can Contact Us here.

 

If you need any assistance or advice whilst in the Gym, please do not hesitate to ask me or my trainers or even other gym members. 

​

Recently, we have obtained a further area which can be used for personal training if you prefer to exercise in a more private environment.

This area will also be used for classes and Martial Arts training. 

​

I look forward to welcoming you to The Alpha Unit very soon. 

​
