GymPro Apparel was created in 2016, founded by two fitness-loving firefighters from the West Midlands
Born from the passion that these two had for a fit and healthy lifestyle, from cooking, training, competing and helping to inspire others the spark for GymPro Apparel was ignited.
They served their community for more than 15 years raising awareness, fighting fires and saving lives but it was through their common interest in the welfare of others, the health, wellbeing and rigorous fitness required to do their job that GymPro was created
Through their experience of working out in communities, Leon & Adam identified a need to help and educate others about the benefits of living a fit and healthy lifestyle. Leon & Adam wanted to inspire and teach others about the benefits physically and mentally and the impact it could have on their lives and the people around them.
Adam & Leon believe that by launching a fitness lifestyle brand it will help them connect with like-minded people and help them achieve their true potential.
THE LAUNCH OF GYMPRO APPAREL
GymPro Apparel was launched at body power 2017 and from there the GymPro Family grew fast. Adam & Leon went on to hold pop up shops in private and public gyms up and down the country. Here they got to meet customers and speak to them about their fitness journeys and the way fitness had changed their lives for the better. They were able to gain invaluable feedback on products so that each new design and release could be fit for what the market demanded.
THE FUTURE
Leon and Adam set out to create a brand that covered multi-sports and lifestyles. They wanted to offer the quality of the big established brands at an affordable price and hey set out to be more than just a company offering a product. The vision for GymPro was to become a lifestyle and a family of like-minded people all pushing to reach the same goals.
GymPro not only design and manufacture clothing but also hold their own fitness events for people to come together to take part in and learn on improving their physical and mental health. This was a vision Adam and Leon had at the start of GymPro as they always wanted to ensure they gave back to communities and help others improve their lives.

This year Adam and Leon are planning to hold several yoga retreats in beautiful locations across the world. The first retreat will be held in a beautiful location in France. Mental health is big on the GymPro agenda and something Leon and Adam want to tackle head-on. They believe health, wellness & fitness plays a massive part in peoples mental health and see this as the most positive way to try and help.
