FITNESS fanatics have been our focus over the past few days as we searched for Wirral’s best fitness or gym instructor.
Whether it’s yoga or pilates, body pump or spin, Zumba or Clubbercise, there is something for everyone when it comes to fitness.
But which fitness or gym instructor in Wirral is the best?
Who has what it takes to keep you going back to the gym or the same fitness class every week?
Nominations have been flooding in as we asked you to tell us whose classes or sessions you think are the best and it’s now time to reveal our shortlist.
