I first used Tony when I developed a problem with my IT Band. Tony very wisely told me to seek medical help first and then he would put together a sensible plan to assist with my condition. Thanks to Tony this has completely gone due to the exercises he suggested over a period of time and this is confirmed by my medical practitioner. I am obviously very pleased with the outcome and I continue with Tony on a regular basis and would recommend anyone to give Tony a try if you want sensible results. This is why I have given Tony five stars. More...

Would very highly recommend Tony. Every session was planned in advance and Tony was always enthusiastic and helpful both in and outside the sessions. Very reasonably priced too.

Tony has helped me a lot. He has helped me to identify what it is I’m hoping to achieve in terms of personal fitness and has helped me set realistic targets. I have really enjoyed the sessions and feel that I have made progress. I now feel in a position to work on my own for a bit and will see how things go before possibly contacting him again. More...

Thank you Tony for your patience and encouragement. As someone who wanted to improve general fitness but doesn’t enjoy the gym, personal training was a great option. The variety of exercises in each session made them enjoyable and time flew by. Highly recommended. More...

Tony is an amazing trainer.. He is inspirational and supportive, never lets you work at less than your best. If you have an illness or disability he does the research and finds a way to give you the workout you need. I have a life limiting disability and Tony went above and beyond in order to keep me as mobile as possible. I'd been trying to manage on my own, in the gym and at classes but they aren't tailored to my very specific needs . I either ended up unable to participate or injured. Tony created a programme that works for me. He gives sound and sensible nutritional advice which if you follow will keep you as healthy as you can be..If you are weighing up whether to buy a gym membership or see him I can strongly recommend the latter..You can run out of time or energy to go to the gym, you can also make excuses. He accepts no excuses and turns up at your home as agreed.. You feel a million times better after the workout and motivated to keep going.Book him, one of the best decisions I've made More...

My sister and I, we train with Tony, and we love it. You never feel like he is pushing you enough but then the next day you really feel it. The six training sessions are great to really see what you can achieve. Each time you see real progress. As women we were a little reluctant having a male trainer, however he is fantastic. He is sensitive to cultural needs. We are now signing up for next year. Tony is like a gym on wheels. He comes to you so unlike a gym membership there is no hiding or slacking. That really helps you stay on track. Tony def gets our vote of trainer of the year! More...

Training with Tony has been a delight and I couldn't recommend him more - having started at the gym by myself full of ignorance and no idea what I was doing, Tony was able to work around my personal abilities and goals and help me feel more confident in the gym. After suffering a serious injury and subsequent surgery on my Elbow, I lost all confidence in excising this part of my body and Tony was able to help me regain this confidence by coming up with a tailored plan to regain strength and flexibility - the fact Tony is able to come to you and make the session fit around whatever size of space you may have is probably the best part if you're gym-conscious like myself. Very reasonably priced and worth it in a competitive market. More...

Tony has been a really motivational without being overbearing. His calm, measured approach combined with his expertise means I have made progress quickly, but sensibly. This time it needs to be longterm, not a quick fix and Tony listened and took on my concerns about previous yoyo 'dieting', addressing them at our first session. His daily emails are thought provoking and timely and the meal plan is straightforward and accessible. The workouts fly by and I feel and look so much better. I'd highly recommend Tony if you're looking to improve your fitness and want to work with someone down to earth and professional. More...

Boxing Day 2016 I started looking around for a personal trainer. I was fed up of being a being blob. I met Tony in January 2017 and we sat down and talked about food and exercise. When I started with Tony I didn't even own a pair of trainers or clothes to exercise in. The next few weeks we created targets. Each week Tony comes to my front room and he gets me moving. I went from never exercising before and walking up the stairs to bed was an effort. To realising I can move and I can also lost weight. You have to be honest with your self and make changes and some times say no , you can't loose weight and change your life by sitting on the sofa watching the world go by. Tony will identify what you want to achieve , push your self to exercise , make you think about what you eat , identify and problem solve eating things you need to eat in moderation. He will taylor a plan to suit you. He can even pop a few jokes and make you laugh at the same time which is always great! More...

I always find Tony to be warm, kind and approachable. I met Tony in 2015 when I subscribed to 6 sessions of personal training. I found he had great insight into how I needed to better position my body in order to maximise the benefit of each exercise. I always felt fantastic after each work out due to being encouraged beyond my comfort zone in a most compassionate way. I always experience Tony as being good at resolving issues, any struggles I may have had around the eating plan are always simply resolved by him - he always takes a sensible and understanding approach to any blocks. I lost weight easily whilst working with him and my body shape changed quickly. This is why I have reconnected with him at this time. He seemed to obvious person to contact as I reconnect with the journey of my physical fitness. I had my first session with him last week which reaffirmed my belief in him. Thanks Tony! You really are a good all rounder to work with. More...

History - denial! Hate gyms with those super fit matchsticks. Then decided I'd like to climb stairs without creaking. Me not the stairs. Found Tony online & so far have had first class treatment. He came to the house first to discuss my expectations & goals. I'll admit to some trepidation. What will he expect? Will I survive 20 min let alone an hour? Ffuf! What was I worried about? Tony has been where I am, so understands all the negative thoughts. He came to the house with a bag of kit...& scales & a tape measure. Getting measured was the worse bit of the session! The hour flew by & I was tired & buzzing, I had survived! Since then my fitness has increased, my body is slowly changing shape & I look forward to each session. They're different each time. Allowances have been made for a gammy knee, but everything else is worked! Tony pushes you without you knowing it! Never had a personal trainer before so can't compare Tony to anybody else, but wouldn't want a different trainer. Happy! More...

I have trained with Tony for a year, and he has been great. Tony listens to what you aim to achieve or what you are training for, in my case a ski season. He went away and did the research so he could tailor our sessions to preparing me for skiing. Tony is always encouraging and never harsh, he pushes me to do my best and work my hardest without feeling like I am over working. He listens to what I have to say about every exercise and will change the session plan if I am finding an exercise painful or too hard. I always leave our sessions happy and feeling better about my fitness. Tony sends out daily emails, I always look forward to these as they set me up for a good, healthy and active day! Tony thank you so much for all you have done, I will remember every exercise and will try my hardest to do them every morning. More...

From the start he was a great listener, working around the concerns I had about what I thought I shouldn't attempt and devising sessions that were always challenging and interesting and focused on getting me stronger. He was always punctual and is a good communicator, even down to the nuts and bolts of arranging each session.

Q&As

It goes without saying that everyone is different and how I train each person is also different.

There is no one size fits all when it comes to personal training. If it did then it wouldn't be personal training.

It's a big myth that there's a secret of getting the body of your dreams.

There is no secret you just have to cut out the crap and junk and be consistent.

You didn't gain the weight overnight and you won't lose it overnight despite what some phonies selling certain products may tell you.

I love meeting people and more importantly helping people achieve their long held goals

I've been you.

I've been overweight for most of my adult life so I get it and I understand how hard it can be to not only lose the weight and more importantly keep it off long term.

That's why I started my business to help others and to finally do something I really enjoy doing.

I know some people struggle with their weight, I help people with an easy system that works, so they can successfully lose weight and more importantly keep it off.

I can also offer sessions over Skype, Facetime or Google Meet

I offer totally COVID-19 secure training over Skype, Facetime or Google Meet.

1-2-1 sessions only take place in a public outdoor space. I maintain social distancing and the sessions are equipment free, however feel free to bring your own equipment.
