What My Clients Have To Say!
Ben
"Having a regular weekly time in the diary really helped me get my mind back into exercise and healthy eating. I lost around 5kg of lockdown weight over the course of our sessions which I was really happy with. Gav was great to work with and created a relaxed, friendly environment whilst ensuring sessions were challenging and motivating. I would recommend for anyone looking to get back into the swing of things!"
Roy Haines
"Although I do a lot of running, my Doctor advised me that "at your age" you should also be doing some strength and resistance work. I was looking for a PT that worked with me, not against me, and as no longer a youngster I did not want some sort of 'boot camp'. I have held a weekly session with Gav for the past six months and have seen visible improvements in tone and muscle but perhaps more importantly an increase in my energy levels. My sessions with Gavin are hard work (that's what I expect) but done in a constructive and gently encouraging way that focuses as much on form and technique as well as actual weights shifted. I am very satisfied with what Gavin has helped me achieve so far."
Ian Bates
"Gav is thoroughly professional and experienced, providing tailored and well structured and timed training sessions. Had to train over Zoom but again well organised and didn't detract from the session. Gav specialises in training for the over 50's, I would recommend him absolutely."
Mike & Julie Ward
"Gav’s training sessions are pitched perfectly for us. My wife and I aren’t the most natural or enthusiastic exercisers but we knew we needed to get into a better, healthier routine, motivated by someone who would push us without getting all sergeant-major-like. We also wanted the sessions to be fun, a weekly date in our diary that we’d actually look forward to – and, yes, they genuinely are. Our training programme has been carefully devised to suit our personal needs – taking into account our ages, our lifestyles, our fitness levels, our goals, any injuries etc. It's a long way from the one-size-fits-all approach you often encounter elsewhere. If you're looking to shape up (particularly if, like us, you're in a somewhat more, erm, senior age bracket), we can’t imagine a better motivator. We've been with Gav now for the best part of a year and feel fitter and more energised than we’ve felt in ages."
Jane Bowden
"Highly recommend....Gav has helped me over the last couple of months to become fitter and eat healthier. I'm 61 and feel that I'm in better shape now than when I was in my 30’s!! I have changed my lifestyle and am overjoyed with the new fitter me."
Pauline Gallear
"It has changed my life, I'm 66 and fitter than I've been in a long time, the classes are enjoyable and work, I live in a second story flat and some days found it hard to get up the stairs, now I find it easier, even carrying my shopping up isn't a chore any more, I'm going out for longer walks without getting tired. Gavin is an amazing trainer and would recommend him to anyone who wants to feel better in themselves and get fit, I've lost weight and inches. Go for it!"
Penny
"Completed six week online HIIT programme designed for people 60+. Found it very motivational and has helped me improve my lifestyle and boosted both my physical and mental fitness. I’m feeling great."
Sandra
"I have found the experience quite surprising considering my age (74yrs). Only wish I had started something like this years ago. Gav’s routines for me have been just right, I certainly feel more energised."
Heather S.
"I have enjoyed personal coaching sessions with Gav both in person and online for the past 2 years. I have always found Gav to be highly professional, caring and supportive to meet my personal training goals. Gav is highly motivational, keeping the sessions varied whilst delivering the results and health benefits. I would highly recommend Gav and his approach to personal training."
Andy Briggs
"I have always found it hard to motivate myself regarding fitness and Gavin's personal training is outstanding! The motivation, care, consideration and patience is why it is worthy of a 5 star review ! my confidence and fitness has now improved considerably and I have only been with it for few months . Bravo!! And thank you! Andy Briggs 58 (becoming a young 58)."
Karen
"I have been working with Gav twice a week since last June as a way to rehabilitate form long Covid - and 20 years commuting! I originally signed up for three months but find he is supporting me to turn my whole life around in a way that's really valuable to me and have no intention of stopping now. He is kind, dedicated and committed to my wellbeing and I’m learning to be the same!"
Jo R.
"I have been working with Gav for over a year and this has been predominantly online. He has been amazing to work with - I was a novice and he’s gradually built up my strength and appetite for exercise. I have lost over 1.5 stone and feel great in myself - sleeping better and less stressed. He’s approachable, great company and he knows when to go easy with me or push me a bit further. I can’t recommend him highly enough."
Stuart
"Very impressed so far, Gav is very good and has set programmes to suit my needs! He is very encouraging and am enjoying getting fitter and feel motivated from the first session! So far so good!!!"
Mike & Sarah
I can't recommend Gavin highly enough. He worked with us from the very outset, differentiating our plans to accommodate our modest fitness in the beginning, encouraging us over the 12 week period to reach our goals. His sense of humour and music tastes only served to make the process more fun! He's fab, a great personal trainer and a truly nice guy. You can't go wrong!
Regeni Sangha
"Gav is an excellent motivating and positive personal trainer...he helped me completely reverse my diabetes and that is no small feat as I was a doctor dreading the onset of the disease. Your goal becomes his goal and I cannot recommend him enough!"
