Find a Personal Trainer in Basford

My time with JC has been incredible so far. I've always been very skinny and underweight, I was struggling with gaining weight and muscle and worrying about confidence, self-esteem,anxiety and was scared of going to the gym. I was looking everywhere to try and find the perfect way to fix it. I found that all the information on the internet, all the gym apps I downloaded were all made for people trying to lose weight and not gain weight, this made me feel really lost and worried about what to do next but luckily I found JC (OnsidePT). I've been training with JC for around 6 months now and it's been some of the best months of my life. He has a heavily customizable approach to training, nutrition and all aspects of the health journey which make it super easy for any newcomer like myself to achieve their goals. With constant feedback and suggestions, it always feels like he's doing more than just his job because he actually cares for the outcome and well-being of his clients. I needed to workout at home, he accommodated, worried about my form on an exercise, he taught me the correct way to do it, I was struggling for many weeks getting the form on a particular exercise, he replaced that with something I'd prefer that still targeted the same muscles. This approach to make the workout as appealing for the client is what I really love, it's never too much trouble to switch things around to make sure that you enjoy the overall experience. I've now gone from pressing 20kg on my office floor to an actual gym pressing 45kg on a barbell and bench, JC sets you up so you always feel like you're equipped to tackle the whole fitness space, and it never feels like he holds information back, if he knows it (and he knows a lot) and it'll help, he'll let you know. The OnsidePT app that JC uses is incredibly useful at tracking all food through linking to myfitnesspal, tracking weight changes and tracking all your workouts, exercises and exactly when and how to do them. You even get a nice notification when you complete a certain amount of workouts or beat your personal bests which is always rewarding. This makes the whole experience that much easier and more fun, it also means JC can constantly see how your workouts are going, and keep in touch about it. Including feedback every week to keep you on track with your goals. Having a person to hold me accountable, constantly keep me pushing but understanding that everyone is human and has off days is just what I needed to help me feel comfortable going forward with my more healthy life. I reccomend JC to anyone, he will help change your life around what ever fitness problems you're facing and encourage you to be an even better person overall, while being a great dude to just have a chat too aswell in-between your sessions. If you're questioning whether or not to get a personal trainer. Invest in yourself by investing in JC because you're sure to see improvements across so many areas and really enjoy yourself doing so.

Sally’s function & flexibility class covers all aspects of everyday movement she incorporates mobility, flexibility and strength involved in full body movements as well as individual body parts. Sally is very knowledgeable about the body and is always able to offer different levels within sessions to ensure everyone benefits from the session. There are also people attending the class who have limitations and cannot kneel or hold their bodyweight on their wrists and Sally always has an alternative. I, have also had my fair share of issues in my shoulders & neck from sitting at a desk and also carry a knee injury from my younger sporting days. Sally has relieved me of some pain, helped me to move better & be much more aware of my posture. Sally’s passion to help people move better is infectious; her classes are always enjoyable and informative. I would recommend her to anyone if you want to move better, learn about your own body and/or improve your posture.

Just had 30min Taster Session of Reiki Treatment. Was well & truly zoned out & would recommend it. Thank you Amanda T Matthews x

If you’re serious about changing your body and investing in yourself then this is the place for you. Dani’s knowledge goes above and beyond what you’d expect from a personal trainer. From the moment you first contact her she provides you with an in-depth package of forms to fill out and arranges an initial consultation which is tailored to your body and goals. I’m a physiotherapist myself and it was immediately evident that Dani uses scientifically proven training methods and diets to sculpt and change your body. What makes her different? -Her knowledge is beyond what you’d expect from most personal trainers-She religiously changes your program every few weeks and logs every single exercise each session so that you can see the progression-She has results to prove it, not only from all the super looking clients walking out of her door after a session, but also from her own achievements in body fitness modelling competitions-She invests her time into you and treats you as an individual and not just as a number-She doesn’t stick to one training method and diet plan for everyone. She’s done her research and recognises that everyone’s body responds differently. She therefore has multiple methods of shocking your body into being the best it can be. I’ve noticed that a lot of other personal trainers use the same training plans and similar diet plans on lots of clients, but Dani’s are much more individually tailoredI’m a 5ft 3in female who just wanted to look a little more toned when I contacted Dani. After only one year of moderate frequency training with her I’m now part of the British Army. I’m one of the fittest and strongest people in my unit and this has opened up so many incredible opportunities for me, all thanks to Dani Lucille.

Mark was absolutely fantastic! I was a bit wary with returning to the gym, particularly due to COVID, but he took the time and explained all the safety measures that were in place to ensure that I was comfortable. I really liked the fact that I got to do a FREE taster session, to make sure it was the right fit for me, and I absolutely loved it. I am now signed up to do 2 x 1 hour sessions per week, with the opportunity to get £10 back in 4 weeks time. This is great for me because it gives me a financial motive to stay motivated and achieve my goals. 5 stars - would absolutely recommend.

I have been training on and off for years, however, never saw the results. Since training with Tom, I didn’t think I would be so diligent and motivated to push myself week after week. He is always very helpful and wants you to achieve those goals you set for yourself. He pushes you and keeps it interesting/ challenging by including different types of fitness like Hiit and reps/sets. He helps you keep an eye on your macros, and teaches you what you need to know, to achieve your goal. 100% recommend.

Nice place. Large bed. No cooking hob if you wanted to cook but dont think it advertisers one..

Fantastic gym and fantastic staff at an affordable price !

Been with finn for a while now and I'm enjoying every second I hit a hard spiral 2 years ago and let myself go. Now I'm chasing dreams with not only and instructor but a very good friend thankyou finn for helping me get to understand who I am again.

My family have all been coming to see Marie for treatments for years and I would highly recommend her. Myself and my daughter have scoliosis so we see Marie at regular intervals. She instinctively knows what we need from a treatment even before we do! Her experience in her field is very apparent and she’s a warm and compassionate person. I also like the way she explains what’s going on in my body. I’d go and see Marie regularly even if I didn’t have a condition as I always leave her room feeling amazing!
