About CG Fitness Retreats

CG Fitness Retreats was founded in 2019 by strength and conditioning coach Connor Gifford. Connor had a vision of travelling the world with like-minded, fitness enthusiasts and creating an experience like none other; delivering fitness and wellbeing sessions while experiencing new cultures and environments. The team now consists of expert trainers, with many years of experience from professional athletes to complete fitness beginners. Yoga instructors set the spiritual mood for the trip, with early morning meditation and yoga practices. Finally, private chefs, provide the team with fresh, culture-rich food from the local area! However this is not just a boot camp or training camp abroad, this is a time for you too, disconnect-breath- reconnect with yourself and your life. Expect lots of opportunities to explore, experience and laugh!

Lost for words! Lost for words!. This was a great first experience. I could tell as soon as i enquired about the retreat that these guys really knew about fitness. Although i travelled alone i quickly slotted in with the rest of the team. Although we were all at mixed abilities and strengths the personal pt sessions were my favourite as they tailored to all of our individual skillsets The food was absolutely amazing and i even gave yoga a go despite me at the start barely being able to touch my toes. i fully recommend everyone to give the retreat a go whether you think you are fitness expert or you are new to training. Thanks Connor and see you on the next one!

Highly recommended! I have just finished the 1 week retreat in Portugal! I loved every second! The way I feel mentally and physically now is just what I needed. Every morning exercising with an amazing group of people, 5* food, great PT sessions, learning yoga & meditation by Glenda who by the way was a great addition to the team! Every day felt so productive and happy. Got lots in but also had a lot of chill time too it was the perfect balance. Genuinely couldn’t fault a thing. It was also a nice reset for me to get back into loving health and fitness as since covid I haven’t exercised or ate a well balanced diet in 2 years. The villa was also beautiful which was a great addition but Connor & Flo was the real experience! Thank you so much, will definitely be doing another one!

An amazing week! I had such an amazing time on the fitness retreat in Portugal! As someone who does little exercise and isn’t a regular gym-goer, I was a little apprehensive beforehand and wasn’t sure what to expect! But after doing the retreat I can say that I would 100% do another one and would recommend CG Fitness Retreats to anybody, no matter their fitness level. Connor is a fantastic PT and got to know my fitness levels/capabilities really quickly, and made sure I was comfortable in the workouts I was doing while still being challenged. There was a mix of solo and group sessions, and I am so grateful to have been with such a friendly, supportive and fun group of people. For me there was the perfect balance between fitness and downtime. I feel really good about how active I was during the week, but I also still feel like I had a holiday! Getting up earlier for the group sessions meant I felt like I was making the most out of everyday, and we did so much throughout the week. We stayed in the most stunning villa, which was really spacious and had the most amazing facilities, including a heated pool, gym, cinema room, pool table and table tennis table! It’s up to you how you spend your time, and there is no obligation to attend all the sessions if you’d rather do other things. However I’m really glad I threw myself into everything as I’ve tried so many things I wouldn’t have otherwise done, including boxercise, weight training and cycling. The villa was in a great location, and we went out as a group in the local area. The food was one of the highlights for me - Chef Flo’s cooking is unreal and I found every meal became my new favourite! I want to recreate so many of his dishes now that I’m back home! Overall, I had so much fun on the retreat. I’m proud I pushed myself out of my comfort zone, and to anyone like me who might be feeling unsure whether it’s for them, I can honestly say you won’t regret it!

Excellent Pilates Classes I started Pilates with Claire because I was feeling a bit unstable when riding my horse and I’d had a few falls. Since joining the mat classes I have noticed a real difference in my core stability and all round strength and in my breathing regulation which has made a huge difference to my riding. I now feel more aware of my body and am able to maintain my position much better which has helped my confidence and my partnership with my horse, and this has helped me progress massively. I also feel healthier too and energised after each session. Thank you, Claire! I highly recommend x
