The results were good; I lost 3 stone in 6 months and I enjoyed exercising again.

Without my friendship through personal training with Andrew, and his expertise and interest in me as an individual, I could have quit training on more than one occasion.

I’ve had a bad back since I was about 15. I've tried countless physio sessions, injections, osteopathy and chiropractic manipulations throughout my life since. Although I had to go slowly at first, my PT sessions with Andrew were amazing. He keeps you motivated and for some reason, I actually wanted to get up in the morning to train!

Each day my back is getting stronger, and although it will never be fully healed, I know I will always be able to do pretty much what I want ‘sport-wise’.

I first came to Andrew for one to one session to get “wedding ready” for my big day. After my wedding I stopped my sessions, and my motivation to visit the gym went downhill quickly. 8 months, and 23lb later I realised I needed to get back to the gym.

Over the last few years, in times when my motivation has dipped again, Andrew has always picked up on this really quickly and adapted my sessions. He's helped me with accountability by following my food diary and continuing my sessions with Andrew definitely keeps me progressing.

After my worst ever asthma attack in 2009, I decided it was time for me to take more responsibility for my health. My goals were to improve my fitness and to lose some weight. Having never followed a diet before I was dubious I could withstand the call of cake! However, the info that Andrew gave me, along with his encouragement and monitoring, helped me begin what has now become a lifestyle change.

One of the distinctive traits of Andrew’s coaching is his ability to encourage you in a respectful way. I have never felt ‘shouted at’ which I incorrectly thought was a trait of a personal trainer. Instead, he's supported in a friendly, but consistent manner.

I have used Andrew as a personal trainer for well over a year and believe that it’s the best investment I have ever made. I am now the fittest and happiest I have ever been.

Working with Andrew has helped me to become a better person – both physically and mentally. Not only is he an excellent personal trainer but he is one of the most ethical and nicest people I know.

I approached Andrew with the aim of improving my deadlift form & shoulder stability to improve climbing performance.

12 months on I feel noticeably stronger both on and off the rock and have achieved a new peak in my climbing performance. I would highly recommend Andy to anyone who is looking to take their own training to the next level.
