Chris is an amazing PT with a superior technical knowledge. He’s focused on your needs. His training is demanding yet fun. He’s totally committed to delivering long lasting results. I have no doubt recommending Chris’ training which is always of high quality. More...

I went to see Chris not so much to get fit but to try and get rid of my aches and pains. I'm fairly fit and strong but I don't always use the correct muscles for the correct job and this was leading to back muscle pain and strain. Chris quickly worked out which muscles I wasn't engaging and using properly and we have worked hard to activate and build those muscles. I'm feeling much stronger and much more comfortable through my back. The sessions have been fun but there's definitely no slacking! For me it's been as much of a work out for my brain as my body - trying to re-educate my body. Even my teenage girls love to join in my sessions when they can. I'd definitely recommend going to see Chris whatever your goals! More...

The Gym Academy has been part of my well being physically & mentally for many years. With Chris’s professionalism, commitment, kindness and drive we have pain managed my body and kept me off medication. Together with my determination not to give in, he has educated me in what I can achieve and most importantly his encouragement makes me more determined to achieve my goals, whatever they maybe! Through the ups and downs, menopause, injury, weaknesses disappointments, I can always reply on him making me feel “you can do it” whatever it maybe! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Gym Academy!

I have been seeing Chris for about three months now. Having never been a gym fanatic, I really look forward to each session and am enjoying them too! I am not only being educated in my nutrition-but also my posture (which I wasn’t aware was so bad!!!!) Having always had a weak back, this is also being addressed and improved through Chris’s team. I am now beginning to get comments about my change of shape and can zip up dresses that were languishing in my wardrobe! I am so glad that I approached Chris and would recommend him to anyone. At the age of 61 I feel healthier and stronger than when I was 51. More...

I’ve been seeing Chris for 3 months now. Since starting, he has helped me to understand what my body needs to loose body fat and has helped me see positive changes. He has adapted my programme as I have progressed, resulting in me feeling overall healthier. I’m looking forward to continuing with this and seeing more results!! Thank you Chris! More...

Trained with Chris for 2 months and went from being in pretty good shape at 82kg to ripped, fast and strong at 69kg. Dropped 3 weight divisions for competing which I never thought was possible at my age. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I have trained with Chris Birch for nearly a year and the results he has accomplished is truly amazing! I have gone from 20% body fat to 13% with increased muscle mass. We have had our highs and lows but he has totally turned me from starving myself alive to teaching me all about nutrition, health and fitness and am now eating more than ever! I can even do 4 full on pull ups all by myself from the bars which is no mean feat and I owe it all to Chris. Perseverance, persistence and perspective sums up the best bloody PT I have ever met! I would like to go on and on but think I might bore you all to death! Thanks Chris you are 1 in a million and know your stuff. � More...

I have been seeing Chris for a month now and I have never been so happy with how I look and feel. Suffering from various problems Chris tailored my programme just for me, I saw the benefits of his advice immediately. In a month I have not only dropped 4% body fat but also see a dramatic improvement in mental and physical being. Would recommend Chris to everyone and can't thank him enough for what he has done.

This guy has changed my lifestyle so much and really improved my Golf ⛳️ I feel much healthier now, I feel more awake, I feel more alert and I can definitely now use my brain to a higher function! Thinking and decision making feels so much for natural to me because my stress levels are down due to my improved diet and exercise. I've gained confidence from going to see Chris because he works with you on such a personal level in relation to your sport/job/lifestyle. My golf and my general confidence is bundles better. I would recommend Chris Birch to anyone! No matter the ailment, no matter the health level, no matter the situation or sport. There's really nothing he can't adapt to and improve. Do yourself a favour people and get In touch with Chris ☺️ Take that step to better yourself More...
