⸺⸺ about compound training club
This is not about us, It is about you
You already know what you want. You want to feel stronger, look better, have more energy, and stop starting over every few months. You want to stop wondering what to do in the gym and start doing something that actually works. You want to feel like yourself again, the version of yourself that feels capable, confident, and in control.
That is what Compound Training Club was built for.
We are not here to be the heroes of your story. You are. We are here to give you the structure, the coaching, the accountability, and the community that make it possible for you to become that person. Our job is to make the path as clear and as supported as it can be. The rest is yours.
Why Compound Training Club Exists
Built because the fitness industry was getting it wrong
Dominic Hodge spent years as an RAF Physical Training Instructor, coaching in military and civilian environments and watching the same thing happen again and again. People would join commercial gyms with the best of intentions, wander around for a few weeks without a plan, and eventually stop going. Or they would follow some extreme programme online, get results for six weeks, and then fall back to where they started. Nothing stuck. Not because people lacked willpower, but because they lacked structure, accountability, and a coaching environment that actually supported them.
So he built one.
Compound Training Club was designed from the ground up to be the thing that the fitness industry was not offering: a coaching-led facility where people of all abilities are genuinely supported, where sessions are structured and progressive, and where the community makes showing up feel natural rather than forced.
The people who walk through our door are not looking for extremes. They are looking for consistency. They are looking for something real. And that is exactly what we have built.
What We Believe
Built because the fitness industry was getting it wrong
Consistency beats intensity, every time
The best training programme is the one you can stick to for years, not the one that destroys you for six weeks. We coach our members to train at a level that builds over time, creates habits, and fits around a real life. Sustainable beats spectacular, every time.
Coaching is the difference
Access to a gym and access to coaching are not the same thing. A coach knows your name, understands your goals, adjusts your programme when life changes, and holds you accountable when motivation drops. That is what separates the people who get results from the people who keep starting over.
Everyone deserves to feel capable in the gym
Most fitness environments are built for people who are already fit and already confident. Compound is built for people who are not yet either of those things. We deliberately design the environment, the language, and the coaching to make every person feel capable from their very first session. Intimidation is not something we accept here.
Community is not optional
The research on long-term behaviour change is clear: people who have social accountability and a sense of belonging stick to things longer. The community at Compound is not an add-on. It is a core part of why our members stay, why they refer their friends, and why fitness becomes part of who they are rather than something they are trying to fit in.
Long-term health over short-term results
Every decision we make, whether it is about programming, nutrition, or the way we communicate, is made with the long game in mind. We are not in the business of helping people look a certain way for a few weeks. We are in the business of helping people feel strong, healthy, and in control of their lives for decades.
The Team
The people who make it happen
Compound Training Club is built on the quality of its coaching team. Every coach brings their own background and expertise, but they all share the same approach: put the member first, coach with integrity, and invest genuinely in every person who walks through the door.
Dominic Hodge
Founder
Dominic built Compound Training Club from the ground up, drawing on his background as an RAF Physical Training Instructor and his experience coaching in both military and civilian settings. He built the business to fill a gap he had seen repeatedly: people who needed real coaching but could only access commercial gyms that left them to figure it out alone. Compound is the answer he built to that problem. Dominic now works at a strategic level, leading a team that delivers the coaching and the community experience he designed.
The Community
Why our members stay
Ask any Compound member what they value most about training here and you will hear the same things. Not the sessions, not the programming, though they will mention those too. What they talk about most is the people. The coaches who know their name and their story. The fellow members who notice when they miss a session and check in to make sure they are alright. The atmosphere in the room where nobody is performing for anyone else and everyone is genuinely there to work and to grow.
That community does not happen by accident. It is built through consistent coaching, deliberate culture, and an environment where every person is treated as an individual from day one. It is one of the most important things we offer, and it is one of the things that a commercial gym or an online programme simply cannot replicate.
"Joining Compound was one of the best decisions I’ve made! The first class coaching, variety of classes and support with my nutrition really has been life changing! I like that I can work at my own pace and level.
What keeps me coming back? For me it’s the quality of the training, the wide range of classes and the camaraderie with other members, I’ve never known anywhere like it!"
Becca Jones
Member, Compound Training Club
"I've lost over 30 pounds since starting with Compound and gained muscle.
What keeps me coming back is the outstanding coaching sessions that are never stale & are always evolving, making us challenge ourselves both physically & mentally, the fact that the coaching staff are always observing & advising in and outside of the gym, plus the great people in the Compound 'tribe'."
Jason Barker
Member, Compound Training Club
“Compound has made me so much stronger & happier within myself” "I’ve been with Compound almost a year now and I wish I had joined sooner as it would have saved me a lot of time of not feeling great about myself, physically & mentally.
Compound has made me so much stronger and happier within myself which is pretty life changing. The reason I keep coming back is simple, the high standard of knowledge and training is by far the best I’ve experienced."
