I met Gavin through the I Love Life program after 12 months of no excercise due to an injury.
His methods and motivation were great to get me back into sport again from spinning to circuits and more.
My body fat and weight has dropped in just 8 weeks, with long term goals now seeming more achievable.
Thanks Gavin

I attend Spin class and absolutely love the results! Fun class with good people and an excellent teacher in Gavin. Recommend highly if you want a challenging routine with a thumping soundtrack (sometimes even 80's for us oldies :) )!!

Gavin is a great class instructor, he makes sure that everyone can do something according to their ability and really motivates you. As a P.T. He tailors the session to your needs and pushes you just that bit further. You don't think you can achieve what he asks but with encouragement you do it. His massage is also the best , cured my sciatic nerve problem with massage and exercise. I would recommend him to anyone. Just a great guy. More...

In the first 7 weeks working with Gavin I have lost 1stone 2lbs and dropped a dress size. Each session is varied and adapted to your ability. I have more energy now and can work harder than I thought I could ever do. If you want a trainer that has patience, adapts workouts around your abilities but gets you to do things you thought you weren't capable of, boosts your confidence in yourself. Then contact Gavin.

Gavin has made getting started with exercise so much fun. I was someone who didn't like to sweat and now I love it. Classes are well run and Gavin makes sure all levels are catered for.
I would recommend Gavin to anyone who wants to get fitter and is unsure where to start as he makes you feel very comfortable and adapts the exercise to you.

I just absolutely love Gavins methods of training. His classes are innovative and fun. He is constantly creating new routines, which keeps it interesting and challenging. He offers great support with technique and always has alternatives if you have any health issues. He is very passionate about what he does and is genuinely interested in your health. I have seen my own fitness levels rise far beyond my own expectations all thanks to Gavins encouragement. More...

I do Gavin's circuits class a couple times a week and absolutely love it!!
My fitness levels are higher now than ever and it's given me the confidence to challenge myself to do things I would never have dreamt of before!
Gavin will give you different progressions of an exercise, so regardless of your fitness levels you can always push yourself and it's a real buzz to be able to move onto the next progression as you get fitter and stronger.
The variety of the classes are great and you constantly learn new exercises and how to use different equipment.
Gavin is always there for any help and advice on injuries, diet, exercises or motivation and I always look forward to my circuit days at the gym. Awesome!

Gavin is an all round great guy! His classes are fun and challenging and he makes sure everyone works to their own level and has the right technique. I regularly attend Pump and Fast Abs at Marjons and have done circuits in the past too.
I've recently done a course of hypnotherapy which is just brilliant and I can't recommend it enough. You don't need to have a phobia or an 'issue' to get something out of it and it is totally personal and tailored to your own life and needs. As a result I have slept better, been more positive and happy - who says money can't buy you happiness! Would encourage any one to give it a go.
Have also had a Sports Massage session which was very good and helped with an on-going back condition. Gavin is very professional and knowledgeable and even lets you choose your own music!
Gav is full of fun and enthusiasm and you would do yourself a favour to sign up for a class or treatment :-)

I started training with Gavin shortly after retiring from the NHS approximately 18 months ago and have never regretted a single moment. Gavin has helped me lose body fat and increase muscle mass and strength, while at the same time, achieve a level of fitness and wellbeing I have not felt for many years. I still have a long way to go but I am getting there gradually. Following an initial assessment, I started with a package of 'one to one' weekly training sessions exclusively tailored to my ability and needs. At the same time Gavin monitored my progress and I was set different challenges to keep me motivated. As I gradually started to gain some confidence I signed up for Spin and Body Pump classes run by him at a local sports centre. Gavin's patience and knowledge of exercise and fitness is extensive and the service he offers is not Boot Camp, just friendly, fun, professional and challenging. He is very focused and passionate about what he does and I would have no hesitation recommending his services to any of my family and friends who wish to lose weight, keep it off and improve their level of fitness and self esteem in a safe and supportive environment.

I joined the I Love Life challenge back in May and single handedly it has to be said, it's the best decision I have made bar-none.

Through the weeks and months, I have not only learnt the values of the importance of exercise but also maintaining a balanced diet and through character building, learning how to respect myself and others.

The team that surrounds this have been more than a lifeline for me. The undivided support they have shown has been nothing short of phenomenal and they should feel every inch privileged that they have someone like Gavin on board. His expertise is second to none and the patience he shows with everyone is second to none.

Gavin if you're reading this, you have helped me and mentored me in so many ways I never ever imagined were possible. You've seen me at my worst and also my best and I can only continue to continue, to keep on keeping on.

In closing, and as corny and as random as this may sound, there is a certain song that is played during the cool down period. That song is by Dido to which the chorus line goes "I want to thank you...for giving me the best day of my life" I couldn't of said that any better if I tried.

There were times when I wanted to quit and turn my back on it all but you kept believing in me and it's because of that and like Elton John said....I'm Still Standing

I have been having weekly PT sessions with Gavin for the last few months. The sessions have been varied and challenging. I have especially enjoyed the focus on lifting heavier weights, Gavin has massively pushed me out of my comfort zone resulting in me lifting heavier weights than I could have imagined. I also really enjoy the circuits and kettlebells classes held at Morgan's, each session is different, poses new challenges and has improved my fitness levels. As a result of my sessions I have lost over 10kg in weight, 8kg of which was fat mass. Thank you Gavin for putting up with my moans, eye rolling and having to put up with 'really' being said so much!
