I was doing the 5:2 diet for years and was miserable hardly eating anything/yoyo dieting and seeing no results in the gym. When I reached 90kg I decided I needed help. I was really apprehensive about starting PTing and thought I'd tried everything and that nothing would work. Through my sessions I gradually developed confidence and understanding of how to fuel my body for energy rather than just for the sake of eating. The thing I really appreciated about Jessica is that she gradually fed me information over sessions and didn't bombard me with information so I didn't find sessions or nutrition a chore or overwhelming. Jessica listens to your needs and she'll structure training and nutrition around this. There's no judgement and no food is off limits!Jessica is one of the most hardworking people I've ever met. She loves her field of work, her positivity and motivation are infectious. Jessica has taught me that knowledge is power, and that's definitely the case when it comes to training and nutrition. She has equipped me with with invaluable information that has prepared me for the rest of my life. Jessica is an excellent PT and at 20kg lighter I would highly recommend her to anyone. More...

After only using cardio equipment in the gym for years I started with Jessica to give me the confidence to lift weights and build strength. Her holistic approach has achieved this ensuring I now have the skills and knowledge to lift free weights and resistance train safely on my own. However, two years later I still train with Jessica twice a week as her sessions are well thought out and motivational. She is constantly reassessing my training needs and programme to make sure I continue to progress. Jessica has also been there when I've asked for nutritional guidance giving me the correct level of support. Along with all her knowledge and experience Jessica is an extremely warm, friendly, approachable and above all supportive PT. BUT best of all in this busy life it is wonderful to spend two hours a week with someone who is there just for me! I highly recommend Jessica as a PT. More...

Great personal trainer, has really helped me feel at ease in the gym and helped me build confidence going through her programs. She is really knowledgeable, not just on the training side of things but also on the nutrition and has changed my mindset when it come to food! Jessica is also really intuitive, and always suggests a change or new goal just at the right time! Training is something I look forward to now...not something I’d ever have thought before Jessica More...

Under Jessica’s guidance I’ve changed from an anxious, reluctant gym goer to someone who loves to train consistently. Jessica is friendly, knowledgable and professional and takes a holistic approach to supporting and training clients. Her support and guidance is available 7 days a week, and she’s always been there for dietary advice, motivation and encouragement as well as training support. She’s a joy to work with and I look forward to my weekly sessions. I’ve found that Jessica is very attuned to me as a client and adept at changing sessions on the spot to suit mood, sleep, changing goals and interests. More...

I was really uncomfortable and nervous before going to see Jessica as i have never enjoyed the whole gym atmosphere. Jessica is very understanding of how you perceive yourself and really good at putting you at ease. The changes to my body composition and mindset have been impressive to say the least. I really enjoy my time with her at the gym and she is so positive and encouraging. If you are looking for a PT then look no further as Jessica has such a vast all round knowledge and i would recommend her wholeheartedly as a positive, uplifting and inspiring PT. More...

Fantastic personal trainer, highly recommend. Working with Jessica has given me focus not only on exercise but nutrition. She has an amazing all round knowledge on health and her PT knowledge is immense . Jessica’s focus on technique and strength has allowed me to get back to the gym following a back injury. My shape has changed dramatically, my knowledge on nutrition further increased and a drop in weight also. Jessica challenges you to think what you can achieve, whilst supporting you to do it. Not always easy, but definitely worth it. More...

I have been working with Jessica for just under a year now and I am extremely happy that I chose her to be my pt. I have always been active all my life but decided that I needed a wee bit more help/motivation with my health and fitness journey. Working with Jessica has helped me greatly with my nutrition and enhancing my knowledge (as I am currently studying sport and exercise science at uni) I have gained valuable knowledge in regards to my training and recovery, enabling me to perform at a higher standard in my chosen sport and in general life. Her coaching has helped me in my studies and she has been able to help me understand topics that I had previously struggled with. I would highly recommend More...

As someone who had never been to the gym before I found myself unmotivated and quite nervous, since training with headstrong fitness I have found myself more confident in my appearance and happier and more confident in myself. Jessica focused on helping me achieve my goals and made every session challenging yet enjoyable. I would definitely recommend Jessica for great quality personal training. More...

Can't recommend Jessica highly enough. She just goes that extra mile for you above and beyond the call of duty. She is very knowledgeable and has helped me for the first time ever to lose weight without any hunger pangs! I am now eating more than ever - just less rubbish! I have also found her to be very motivational during training sessions with everything being geared so well to my level. Thank you Jessica! More...

Cannot praise Jess enough for all the help she has given me. I have never seen such drastic results and have never felt in such amazing shape. I have worked with other people before and often found them a bit intimidating but jess is so friendly and approachable - and most important for me she is not judgemental in the slightest. Not only has she improved the way I look but also the way I think about exercise, food and my life - I now love life more than ever! More...

Jess is the real deal when it comes to nutrition and exercise, she really does know what she is talking about and is there anytime of the day to encourage you and keep you motivated when you feel like you're losing your way a bit - god only knows how she puts up with my stubborness! � I'm the lightest I've been in 5 years at least and the difference, not only in my weight but to my mind has been the biggest positive in my life, She totally changes the way you see food, using it as FUEL for your body to work properly by teaching you about nutrients your body actually needs and not filling it to the brim with calorific processed foods with no nutritional value - this has really helped me stay on track! Training is fun and varied and I've never needed to step on a cross trainer once! Also she has some cracking banter for when you're having a rubbish day � I was nervous about getting a trainer in the beginning as I'd never had one before but Jess doesn't judge you in the slightest and is a constant support throughout and answers any questions you may have and totally puts you at ease, best thing I ever done, can't thank her enough! ����� More...

I'm feeling amazing and couldn't of done it without her. She checks in daily to see how you are, what your meals are like and motivates you like no one else!! She's an absolute star and I love working with her. If you need help with your fitness or diet, call her!!!! She will sort you out. I am already looking forward to seeing what I look like in 6 months time after working with her. Anyone looking for a personal trainer, need look no more. ��� More...

Been working with Jessica for the past four weeks and cannot recommend her highly enough! Not only has she helped me see physical changes already, she's has changed my mindset totally. No more shakes, scales, treadmills or endless sit ups and eating more than I have ever done. It's hard work and the training sessions are tough but brilliant. If you want results and don't mind putting in the effort then Jessica will train, advise and support all the way with some great chat also thrown in! More...

After doing the 5:2 on and off for 5 years I was fed up with yo yo dieting, rubbish energy levels and weight loss had plateau'd. Jessica has excellent knowledge in her field and has taught me how to eat to fuel my body rather than restricting foods. Sessions are challenging but fun and having a different diet isn't even that difficult....! Thank you Jessica! :-) More...

Highly recommend Jessica- 100%!! I’ve been working with her for a few months now, and the change, not only in my physique, but my mindset too, is amazing! She really focuses on technique, which makes such a difference. Her guidance with nutrition is great - not a “diet”, but a lifestyle change and getting you to understanding what you are eating. Sessions can be challenging but Jessica really motivates you to push yourself, so you are focused on achieving your goals. If you’re looking to improve your health and fitness, Jessica is your answer! �� More...

Jessica is perfect for me as she focuses on technique and gradually building strength & her advice on nutrition for muscle building has been invaluable. 6 months in, my weight has dropped a bit but my shape has changed dramatically, I feel healthier, stronger and I’m enjoying exercise more than ever.

I followed Jessica's facebook page for a while and really loved and identified with all her ideas. I then decided to join Jessica. I have been going to the gym for years and fitness is really important to me but felt I needed to really work on technique, progress and also desired advice on nutrition and how strive to achieve better health. After the very first session, I felt more confident in myself and that was mentally as well as physically. I have gained knowledge about eating better, exercising better and even having better posture. Jessica also advised me on relevant vitamins and minerals and was always available to advise or chat. The changes that Jessica can help you make really are for the better and also enjoyable! I highly recommend Headstrong Health and Fitness! Thank you Jessica. x More...

How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
A healthy diet is what will keep your body running and performing at its best ! Once you start listening to your body - noting when you're tired or groggy - or have tonnes of energy & feel great in your mind and body - this will help you stay on track & take note of the foods that make you feel good - however this also means not
Cutting Out certain food groups - just having a varied diet of foods and getting the nutrients our bodies need and then enjoying lifes gifts (like chocolate..alcohol...ice cream for example) in moderation! And I will teach you how to do this.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
By putting the client first & finding out their goals, in order to work together to create the best plan that fits in with their lifestyle & needs!
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
By finding balance with food, loving your body at every stage & being consistent.
Our idea of our 'dream' bodies take time to build, so we must find a realistic approach that is sustainable & fun throughout the rest of our lives.
Take note of the exercises you find enjoyable & try a variation of styles to keep yourself interested & motivated. This will also keep our bodies from adapting the same workouts day in day out! When you keep it 'guessing', the more noticeable results will be!
What do you love most about your job?
Helping people find ways to enjoy fitness , understand the importance of good nutrition & coach clients how to lead a happy stress free lifestyle.
It is incredibly rewarding to see clients results physically AND mentally.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Turning my passion of fitness everyday as a hobby to realising I wanted to help coach people as a living!
