Great trainer, great motivator. I’ve started working with Gavin 4 weeks ago and I already went from 54 kg to 57 kg and from being depressed from a lost boxing match to be fully motivated to get better and stronger. Aside from being a trainer Gav is just a great person who been through a lot, he understands other peoples struggle and tries his best to help. Thank you Gavin for bringing the hope back in me and I’ll see you at the gym 💪🏻 More...

Having undertaken a program of 20 sessions, I'm so pleased with the results! 2 stone down, 2.5" off my waist, I feel (and look! ) much much better after a "COVID Lockdown Lull" and have found a PT who works with me towards my goals! Highly recommend Gav & the Transformation Gym! Anne-Marie. More...

I’ve been training with Gavin now for 6 weeks now and i’m really pleased with the results. He listened to my goals and tailored a nutrition and workout strategy to help me achieve my goals. He’s a motivated guy himself which becomes contagious. I’d recommend him to anyone looking to improve themselves not only fitness but mindset as well. More...

I was initially tentative about going to a personal trainer as my goal was to improve my fitness and very sport specific. Rather than dictate to me what i should be doing Gavin asked me lots of questions around my personal goals and challenges in the past and built a bespoke plan for me . The motivation and workouts have really helped me to get into better shape and take on a big challenge later this year. More...

Gavin has been AMAZING! I’ve been using him for a couple of weeks now and bought 10 sessions but will definitely be continuing.

Being 20 it can be quite intimidating contacting people for a PT when your not very confident in fitness but he has been nothing but patient and made me feel very comfortable exercising which I never thought I would say.

6/5 stars would defo recommend ☺️☺️

Working with Gavin has been fantastic. I started with him having suffered with mental illness issues. I was looking for guidance and direction for my physical wellbeing to improve. Having cerebral palsy, I needed someone who could accommodate me and my extra needs.

Since I’ve started with Gavin, I’ve been given incredible guidance and support that is transforming my life and changing my daily routine for the better. I am extremely confident that my sessions with Gavin are working to improve my physical health and subsequently has improved my state of mind. The sessions are tailored to my own abilities perfectly.

I met Gavin through my daughter and started training with him at the end of May 2015. My weight had always fluctuated. With Gavin's help i have lost nearly 3 stone, and have changed my eating habits, having taken his advice on nutrition and we train weekly. I am the leanest, strongest and happiest with my body than ever, and at the age of 52 am going to get on stage in one week in heels and a bikini. I'm still in shock but looking forward to posting the transformation photos. Thanks Gavin x More...

Great PT that has developed into more than a pt...he's always eager to offer me advice and motivation on training and nutrition, I started my fitness journey last year around February originally with the aim of just losing weight and gaining muscle. ..I would say I lost around 2 stone of fat in all under Gavin's regimes and grew so much In confidence that I started doing my now lifelong passion of MMA and Jiu jitsu...

After a Google search of a good PT in my area, Gavin's name came up. I bit the bullet and met him in September 2013, I knew then I had nothing to loose but weight! Gavin's expertise and experience put me at ease and I soon started to shed the weight I needed to loose. If you are serious about investing in yourself, he's the one to help, with a no prisoners approach too...you don't want to have a PT who won't say it like it is. Don't let that put you off! He's amazing at what he does! More...

Went to see Gav 6 months ago for nutrition and workout plan to kick start my year. I was underweight and my efforts at the gym were getting me nowhere. Although I haven't been as strict with myself as I could have been I have followed the routine and used the meal plan pretty consistently and gained over a stone - most of it lean muscle. Gav also recommended another PT he works with who was able to tweak my leg day plan to account for my scoliosis (which means I can't squat effectively) and it's given me more confidence and a solid base to kick on from.

Can't say enough for what Gavin has done for myself and others that I know during the time I have spent training with him.

I was carrying more weight than ever and had let too many things such as work and other stresses become my excuses for poor nutrition and exercise habits.

Gavin went through every single detail from my lifestyle and daily nutrition to the exact amounts and intensity of cardio whilst helping me to plan effective goals that were obtainable and progressive.

I set the target of my wedding (and of course Stag Do) to get myself in as good a shape possible.

I lost over 3 stone and build more lean muscle giving me a confidence I needed in myself and also allowed me to feel like I could shop for more variety as opposed to clothes I was comfortable in.

The psychological benefits were the biggest help in guiding me with assurance and confidence which changed my outlook on day to day life. I've become a stronger all round person and I can't thank Gavin enough.

He remains a fantastic friend and will give advice and help whenever needed.

My brother has since since joined and you can see he has achieved even greater things to which my whole family are grateful. We lost our father to heart disease at a young age and this has spurred us on to focus on the importance of health and fitness whilst still being able to enjoy ourselves.

Highly recommended and like anything, try it before you judge and doubt.

I have only recently started training with Gavin, but have seen more results in the past month than I have seen over years of trying on my own. I feel so motivated to working towards my goals and as well as focussing on becoming thin, I am now driven to build muscle and achieve a better body than I ever thought I would be able to attain! He certainly knows his stuff and how to effectively tailor a program to suit the individual, and has definitely got me sussed!!! He knows how to make everything practical, achievable and challenging and how to encourage and support you. I'm more driven, full of energy and happier than I have been for a long time - even if he does make me run lots and works me hard in the gym!! Awesome trainer and I'm looking forward to seeing the results that we can obtain together! :-) Cheers Gavin! :-) More...

Q&As

Extremely important & so is having the right overall bespoke lifestyle strategy

With over 15 years of experience I like to tailor my clients plans

Every new customer has the following:

- bespoke nutrition plan tailored to goals & taste buds

Train with a PT who knows how to have the body of their dreams!

I competed in Los Angeles USA representing the UK & have done photo shoots in Beverley Hills & Muscle Beach

Seeing the smile on a clients Face who has transformed both in body & mindset

Helping disabled clients succeed to feeling abled, helped multiple clients recover from illness, bounce back from cancer, correct poor posture, win sports events, compete on the world level

Nothing phases me when helping new & existing clients

My youngest client is 8 years old & my eldest is 74

I've been self employed for 20 years now & im successful as a result of my clients results

Because I believe I've done more body transformations than any other PT I know.

Unfortunately I have witnessed thousands of personal trainers come & go over the years

I have reinvested over £100,000 in a private studio , shop & in education

The 30,000 hours of 121 training has tought me allot over the years & I know personally many of the best nutritionists & fitness coaches in the U.K. Today
