I have been training with Chris for the past four months, starting about six months after a knee surgery. When I first came to him, my main goal was simply to regain strength and mobility. Thanks to his guidance, I am now not only walking and running again, but I genuinely feel stronger than I did before the surgery. He is incredibly professional, attentive, and clearly very knowledgeable. Every session is well planned and adapted to how I’m progressing, which made a huge difference during my knee rehabilitation. He pays close attention to technique and always makes sure exercises are safe but still challenging. What I also appreciate is how enjoyable the sessions are. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who is supportive, professional, and truly invested in helping his clients achieve real results.
Chris is a fantastic personal trainer, and I have seen massive improvement since starting sessions with him 5 months ago. His knowledge and understanding has meant that despite my previous injuries and joint pain, I have not only got stronger but my day to day pain has significantly reduced, and this is all down to how he he's worked with me and tailored my plan to avoid pain & build strength. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a PT, and especially if you're someone who has specific needs around injury/health issues.
Great personal trainer. He's helped me with a back injury and helping me feel stronger every day. He also checks in every session to see if he might need to adjust the workout and listens well.
I have been training with Chris for nearly a year now and I can highly recommend him as a personal trainer. Chris really takes time to understand what you are looking for in terms of a training program. He makes sure that you are doing the exercise correctly and safely. I really look forward to our sessions together. We always have a good conversation and a laugh too and if Alice the gym dog appears that is a bonus too!
I first started training with Chris because of a chronic tennis elbow that had been keeping me from bouldering for almost a year. My goal was to get a workout plan that would help me keep up my climbing strength without aggravating my elbow pain. Chris has given me so much more than that! From the first meeting he's been incredibly supportive and considerate and worked with me to find out what exercises and modifications worked, often checking in between sessions to ask about the impact. Training with Chris over the past few months has done more to rehab my elbow than any physios I've seen over the past year, and I've even been able to start climbing again! I love the progress I've seen with Chris's coaching. He's encouraging, explains things clearly and makes sure I feel like I'm challenging myself every session. Even though it's only been a few months, I already feel so much stronger and I'm excited to see how far I can go!

All that has changed! A year on, I’m still training with Chris, I am a lot stronger and enjoy going to the gym 4 times a week. Chris is really caring and puts together PT sessions where I can challenge myself while making sure my form is good and I have progressed loads. Chris has also done me programs for all my other gym days and he checks in regularly outside of PT sessions to see how I’m doing. I’ve never felt as fit and strong as I do now. Chris goes over and above for his clients. Above all else he’s a decent and kind human being. I highly recommend him.
So thrilled! As I feel stronger & fitter than I have in years, Chris has guided me through exercises which I never thought possible! I look forward to going as it’s fun, no judgement only encouragement, and so much improvement in 8months, and I feel it can only get better, thanks Chris, … Dee 70 years young & getting younger!
Started PT with Chris in Dec 2022 to gain confidence using machines again. I have built muscle without feeling it too hard. Chris is always encouraging & leading up to a hip replacement we’ve been building my upper strength which has helped enormously in my rehab. I would highly recommend working with Chris, the gym is non judgmental & the coffee is great too!
I'm 74 years old and I started PT with Chris in February’22. My aim was to include some resistance work into the rehab work I had slowly been building up following a severe cartilage injury in 2020. Chris listened well and was good at understanding my needs. He was also sensitive to my fear about further damaging my knee so took PT at a pace I could cope with. He was very encouraging and slowly built up my confidence. My knee/leg is now almost fully functional. I’ve enjoyed the work so much I’ve now moved to working with him on upper body strength as well. Thank you Chris!
Chris is a motivational and knowledgeable fitness expert. He deserves way more than 5 stars! I have been training with Chris for 9 months and he has totally stayed focused on my fitness goals. Having recovered from a shoulder operation, I never thought that I would be able to get back in the gym. Chris encouraged me from the start and has always been patient and mindful of my injury and has helped me to modify my workouts to ensure that I get the best from each exercise and stay motivate to be at the gym! I can’t thank you enough Chris. I am looking forward to the next phase of my fitness journey.
2 years later, Chris is still my PT. Understanding, helpful, patient and committed - 4 reasons why I still haunt him and will continue to do so! Chris has helped me progress and achieve things I thought unachievable and his patience, professionalism and manner has motivated me beyond any of my expectations.
It's been great working with Chris and I'm very happy with the results. He's helped me build a routine which has benefited my health and boosted my confidence. I'd recommend him to anyone who is trying to get healthier and fitter.
Chris is the best PT - he is focused on helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging (& somehow fun). My strength and fitness has increased noticeably. Chris is always very encouraging and has a vast knowledge of his profession. He ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries. Moreover, he is extremely reliable & punctual – always set up and ready to start training, and responsive to all WhatsApp messages!
I have been working with Chris for the last 3 months and I can't say enough about how great he is. In such as small amount of time, I have noticed a massive difference in not only my fitness, but my confidence. Being a 1st timer at the gym, from the first meeting, Chris has been fantastic and put me at ease straight away. He takes the time to explain each exercise and pushes you to do your best. I couldn't recommend him enough, thanks Chris for all your support and expertise.
I have been working with Chris for 6 years now. I’m so pleased I found him! I have to limit certain exercises due to a having a stroke years ago and Chris is brilliant at constantly challenging me, keeping my sessions interesting and has the knowledge and experience to adapt an exercise if required. I’m feeling stronger than I have in years and feeling so much better! Thanks Chris
Chris is a genuinely fantastic PT! I've been training with him for around 3 months now and I'm incredibly proud of the progress that I've made with his help. Previously, my gym attendance had been sporadic and unfocussed and came to a full stop after a back injury during squats. Chris took the time to look at my form, help me recover and become stronger, and under his coaching, I'm now way ahead of where I was previously. Chris's approach is friendly, approachable and encouraging and he has provided the structure and focus that I needed to enjoy training again and see alot of progress. I look forward to every session! Cheers Chris!
I loved working with Chris: he keeps sessions enjoyable and relaxed and this almost hides the amount of effort he puts in before, during and after sessions. He listens - can’t stress how important and rare that is - so he makes sure he understands your motivations and any concerns you have. He gave me an excellent plan and without realising it he had me improving week on week! He leads by example and is a font of knowledge and advice. Worth every penny!
I’ve been working with Chris October last year and since then have seen amazing gains. I’ve have diagnosed disc prolapse and wanted to get back to some training before considering surgery. Chris has helped me get stronger now than I was 20 years ago. Thanks to coaching in technique I’m squatting over 140kg for the first time. An outstanding training I’d highly recommend
Chris knows his stuff! He has a great attitude and realistic with setting goals and how to achieve them. He was able to break the exercises down for me in a way that made sense and helped me understand what I needed to do to get the most out of my time at the gym.
A 5 star rating definitely doesn't do justice for just how good Chris is. When I first looked for a PT online I was so apprehensive and didn't know what to expect. Chris was fantastic from the very first contact I had and made me feel very comfortable and at ease. I initially approached Chris to support my training assisting me to lose weight and improve performance within the team sports that I played. What I didn't realise was that I would get so much more than this. Every time my personal circumstances changed Chris was there to support and adapt my training to meet my needs. Chris supported and adapted my training whether that was becuase I had picked up an injury playing sport or more recently throughout my pregnancy and return to training. Whatever your training needs Chris is fantastic and I would 100% recommend him.
Chris has helped me hugely I have spent 2 years of being scared of being able to work out at the gym to a frozen shoulder. I am now becoming a more regular goer and noticed a huge improvement not just in my mobility but also my overall fitness and confidence. The fact that Chris is entertaining and doesn’t make me worry about going to the gym has been a huge benefit to me. Can’t recommended him enough.
Amazing trainer ! Always very supportive and flexible. Definitely knows what he's doing, Chris is a PT who has done all the research, keeps up to date and knows how to adapt his training to each client. 100% recommend Chris, especially now as doors are opening again post COVID, book your sessions now.
As a retired person I wanted to improve my flexibility and movement. Chris offered a range of exercises on a one to one personal trainer arrangement which I took up and have two, one hour sessions a week. After 20 sessions my posture is vastly improved, my personal confidence has improved and I am moving, standing and walking so much better than before. Chris has been a great find and I would have no hesitation recommending him to anyone else. In fact my wife now also comes and Chris is working on her improved stamina requirement. Thanks Chris!
Chris is a great trainer. I've had loads of trainers before, and not managed to stick with it enough to lose the weight I wanted to. But Chris has been brilliant and I have finally managed to achieve my target weight.
Chris is a great trainer. II came to Chris after about a year out from the gym and he was brilliant. In 6 weeks we were down over 10lbs, he'd sorted my form for my Bench, Squat and Deadlift, and had me lifting heavier than I ever had before. Top, top guy. Can't recommend enough.
