Hubfit is Hawera's 24/7 gym, located inside the TSB Hub building at 15 Camberwell Road. Run by Vicky and Ben, the gym is staffed Monday to Friday and operates around the clock the rest of the time, so members can train when it genuinely suits them — before work, after dinner, or any hour in between.
The training floor is fitted with new, state-of-the-art equipment, and the feature list goes well beyond the basics: there's a dedicated boxing room for boxing-style conditioning, a sauna for warm-down and recovery, and protein drinks, meals and supplements stocked on site. Personal one-on-one training is available, alongside group classes and personalised training programs — every membership of six months or more comes with a free one.
The team works with members across a wide range of goals, from weight loss and muscle tone to core strength, cardio fitness, over-65s fitness and nutritional advice, and the site displays the REPs facility logo. Memberships cater to couples, students, high school students, and gold card holders or super annuitants, while casual workouts let newcomers try the gym before committing.
The in-house motto sums up the approach: set some goals, then demolish them.
Hubfit sits in the TSB Hub building at 15 Camberwell Road, Hawera, and it runs on a motto you'll spot all over the site: set some goals, then demolish them. Behind the gym are Vicky and Ben, who describe their role simply — supporting you to get in shape, achieve your training goals and stay fit for life. The gym is staffed Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 6.30pm, but that's only part of the story: with full 24/7 access, members can train at whatever hour genuinely suits their day. For a single gym, the feature list is unusually long — modern equipment, a boxing room, a sauna, group classes and on-site protein all under one roof.
Round-the-clock access is the convenience Hubfit leans on hardest, and it's easy to see why. Shift workers, early birds, parents squeezing in a session after the school run, night owls — everyone has a window, and the gym is open for all of them. During staffed hours, Vicky and Ben are on hand for help and encouragement; outside them, members let themselves in and get on with it. There's one firm rule: you must be over 14 to join.
The training floor is kitted out with new, state-of-the-art equipment — something the gym promotes as a headline feature rather than a footnote. There's a dedicated boxing room for bag work and boxing-style conditioning, giving members a proper outlet for cardio and stress relief, and a sauna for warming down and recovery once the work is done. If you arrive without supplies, you're covered too: protein drinks, meals and supplements are stocked on site, including whey protein and Musashi recovery products.
Where Hubfit tries to set itself apart is support. Every membership of six months or more comes with a personalised program at no extra cost — a plan written for your body and your goals rather than a generic handout — and further programs can be added when you're ready for the next challenge. Personal one-on-one training is on offer alongside group classes, and the service list is broad: personal training, over-65s fitness, nutritional advice, weight loss, muscle tone, core strength, cardio fitness and group classes. For older members, the over-65s fitness offering acknowledges that staying strong matters at every age. The site also carries the REPs facility logo, the mark of New Zealand's Register of Exercise Professionals.
Membership categories cover couples, students, high school students, and gold card holders or super annuitants, so whether you're joining with a partner, studying, or keeping active in retirement, there's an option shaped for you. Not ready to sign on the dotted line? A casual workout lets you come in, try the equipment and get a feel for the place first — with a discounted casual rate for students.
Everything about the tone here is direct and practical. The message isn't about mirrors and selfies; it's about goals, programs and putting in the reps, with a team that stays approachable while you do it. The 24/7 model reflects that mindset: the gym adapts to your schedule rather than the other way around, and the facilities — modern machines, boxing room, sauna, on-site protein — exist to keep you training consistently, which is the part most people actually struggle with.
Hubfit is inside the TSB Hub building at 15 Camberwell Road, Hawera, staffed Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 6.30pm with member access around the clock. You can phone 06 278 5482 or email hubfit@outlook.co.nz about memberships, casual workouts or personal training. If you've been circling the idea of getting started for a while, the low-commitment move is obvious: drop in for a casual session, walk the floor, talk to Vicky and Ben, and see whether this is the gym that finally fits. Then set some goals — and get to work demolishing them.
