Olly Banks Coaching

Olly is a great coach providing wide ranging support and drive. Of course pushing you to get the most out of your sessions, but Olly is also ever-observant, intelligent in his planning and vigilant to avoid injury or strain. Even outside our sessions Olly has really helped me stay accountable for my nutrition, sleep and exercise. Thank you! More...

I needed an experienced trainer to help me stay on track as I visiting London for a couple of weeks. Olly was able to accommodate me within hours and help get me set up in no time.

I would certainly recommend Olly if you are looking for someone that can set you up to get into shape, and help you push yourself. More...

Olly has been absolutely phenomenal and a huge support inside and outside the gym. Our sessions are focused and packed and he pushes me to give it my all each time. He's easily reachable and keeps me accountable for my activity and nutrition outside of our sessions. I've seen amazing results, both weight loss and strengthening, as well as sleeping better and being in an improved head space. He's been extremely flexible with my schedule and we always manage to fit in a session or two a week. Even on holiday he checks in and wrote me a program to use. He's a very professional, motivational and a wonderful PT. Couldn't recommend him enough! More...

Olly makes going to the gym more fun! He pushes you but also makes sure to ask if you have any pain and stops if anything hurts. He is very attentive and checks on you even after the session. During the session, he makes sure form is correct to avoid injury and the exercises are perfect for what you want to achieve. He is also a lovely person to talk to and motivates you in a friendly way. Only good things to say 😊 More...

As a 34 year old complete gym novice in the worst shape of my life (thank you pandemic and WFH), after one month (two sessions per week) I'm now in the best shape I've been in since I turned 30. Olly manages to both squeeze out that extra 10% of effort from you, but also is careful to avoid strains and overexertion. More...

Olly is an amazing trainer that has helped me develop a sustainable fitness routine in just a few weeks. Initially, I wanted to start PT to build my strength and gain confidence in the gym. Olly's been very supportive throughout my journey, but also pushes me to reach my goals when needed. I highly recommend him to anyone that wants to improve their fitness and nutrition! Going to the gym can be enjoyable when you have a great guide. More...

I started with Olly in October 2017 and can honestly say it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I started by going to three PT sessions a week as I was a complete gym novice and have now moved on to just one PT session and two classes a week. Olly is extremely supportive while pushing you to be your best. I really look forward to my time in the gym now and always leave having worked hard and laughed a lot! I’d recommend Olly to anyone looking for a PT. More...

Olly has completely changed my outlook on fitness. In just a few months I've gone from someone who HATED working out to someone who genuinely looks forward to every session. And not only have I lost nearly two stone, but my entire body shape has changed for the better, all through Olly's brilliant planning and relentlessly positive encouragement. If you're looking for a PT, I cannot recommend him enough! More...

Really great PT! I’ve seen real results in a very short space of time following the programme Olly devised for me, catering to my pretty specific fitness goals- PT sessions are both challenging and enjoyable. ..with Olly’s instruction and guidance really helping me to improve my form on a number of exercises I’ve struggled with for a long time...overall highly recommended👍 More...

Its a very great experience working with Olly .. he doesnt push you too much and he is very friendly .

Knowledgeable and professional PT who was able to help me far exceed my fitness goals. I wanted to lose weight and I ended up losing over 12kg in 5 weeks. Worth every penny!

First session went good. Looking forward for another:)

Olly is motivational and pushes you to fitness levels you didn’t think were possible, whilst making every session so enjoyable and fun! I also suffer from a bad back and Ollys knowledge/ ability to adapt to my injuries are second to none!! Highly recommended!! More...

Absolutely wonderful. Can't recommend Olly enough, he is lovely and has pushed me to really increase overall strength to support problems I have with my bad back. He's also made me think more about what I am eating, moving more during the week and making better healthier choices (and the weight loss alongside the strengthening has been fab) More...

Had my first workout today and it was great!
Looking forward to more!

Ollie is the best personal trainer I have ever had. He has a great positive attitude to working out and is encouraging without being too pushy. He always makes sure I’m comfortable and feeling my best. I feel the strongest I’ve ever been, so thank you Ollie!! More...

Olly was the best personal trainer I've ever worked with in my life (I'm 32, been going to the gym for 10 years). Understands the fine balance between pushing to the max and avoiding injury. Knowledgeable in dieting. Practices what he preaches (the dude is ripped). Helps push you in all the ways you need. Highly recommended. More...

Olly is a knowledgable PT, highly recommend - 5*

Olly is great at helping to keep the motivation high. He has a positivity that lifts you out of the moments when you are about to cave! Very happy to recommend Olly for anyone looking to loose weight, tone up, break bad habits. More...

Olly helped me to lose almost 1 stone in 2.5 weeks, which was more than I ever expected to lose. By creating a cardio and weights training programme, plus giving me advice on my diet and portion size he made it much easier to lose the weight. He is very easy to work with, always available to answer questions and was great at holding me to account. I’d definitely recommend hiring Olly as a PT. More...

Olly is a great PT, and I highly recommend him for anyone who needs a bit of a push to reach their goals. I have been working with him for a year, and he is great at coming up with realistic goals, and workout programs, and to coach you to achieve or exceed these. I intend to keep working with him for the foreseeable future. More...

I had tried a couple of personal trainers before but I noticed the difference with Olly immediately. He made me feel comfortable and confident and I could really feel the difference straight away. Since working with Olly my fitness is much higher and my posture is much better. He is super professional and really worked hard to figure out my goals and how best to achieve the results I wanted. I would definitely recommend Olly, whatever your goals. More...

Olly has been great for me as a PT, he continues to review my plan to meet my objectives and constantly encourages me (which it what I require). I have seen great results - even my teenage daughter has commented!!
I look forward to continuing my fitness journey with Olly. More...

I can honestly say Olly is an amazing trainer. His knowledge and expertise in fitness is second to none. I’ve trained with Olly for two and half years now and in this time he has constantly pushed me to reach new goals with my fitness. He always manages to get that little bit extra out of me, but with a very calm manner.
Olly has also put together easy to follow and continually evolving plans for my solo training which have been incredibly helpful. He has transformed my gym routine, explains why certain exercises work better than others, and has given me so much more confidence in what I do.
He’s also one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet! More...

Having used various PT's over the years, Olly is the only one that has been able to help me achieve any noticeable results.
Olly is dedicated, professional and extremely knowledgeable in his field, he created a bespoke plan for me and set realistic achievable goals. He's really responsive and a total joy to train with. Thank you for making me finally enjoy exercise. More...

I can only recommend Olly as a PT. He is really Professional and adapts the training to each individual. He works you hard but at the same time you have a good laugh. I have trained with Olly over 2 years now, having had other PT before I can only say he is the best one I had. More...

Super professional trainer with great knowledge and understanding of the industry and how to help me achieve goal. Training with Olly 3 times per week got me in shape ready for my wedding day! I’ve continued to train with him ever since! More...

Having never set foot in a gym before I met Olly, I didn’t hold much hope- but he certainly changed that!
His tailored, adaptable (& patient! ), not to mention friendly approach meant that three years down the line I was still training with him twice weekly up to the 37th week of my pregnancy.
I couldn’t imagine sharing my fitness journey with anyone else (if it weren’t for him I’d certainly never had had one to navigate in the first place!) Thanks Olly! :) More...

Olly has been a fantastic PT. Highly recommended. He is always on hand to provide tips and advice over WhatsApp and during our 1-hour PT sessions, has provided constant motivation. His outlook on exercise and fitness is transformational. With a detailed programme, his unique approach has enabled me to reach my my weight loss goals in a very short time, whilst toning body and building muscle. This has been maintained with our regular online sessions over FaceTime during the lockdown. Great to work with! More...

Olly is very professional, patient, super friendly and always try to come up the best plan based on client’s personal condition and goals. Wonderful to work with.

Olly is the most responsible PT I have ever met. During the one-hour training in the gym, he helped me train different parts of my body with various ways. After the training, he also supervised my diet and give professional advice. My target was losing weight, he really helped a lot. Plus, he is very handsome and gentleman. More...

I would highly recommend Olly as a personal trainer. Have been training with Olly for around 18 months and expect this partnership to continue long term.

Olly is passionate and knowledgeable about fitness. He is also professional yet retains that personal touch. I’ve found the workouts both challenging and rewarding. More...

Olly has been fantastic in assiting me in reaching fitness goals. also, Olliy is very adaptable; After a Tough Mudder accident caused a broken leg and ankle. Olly has been instrumental in helping me build up strength and mobility in the duff leg. More...

Very professional and on point with every plan. He is very easy to get in touch if needed and very helpful to give advise about any confusions. Training with Olly has given me motive that i can change myself into a healthier person. Overall he is the best Personal Trainer and I wouldn’t change him with anyone. Definitely would recommend him to family and friends. More...

From the first meeting before our session started over 1 year ago, I realised that I had made the right choice choosing Olly as my PT. He has a way of making one feel at ease. He works me hard but at the same time understand when to pull back. He pushes me to do more than I believe I can and all throughout this he does it with a gentle encouraging smile but at the same time quite firm.

He works with me, talk with me, he understand what my needs are and plan my workout accordingly.

As long as I intend to have a PT, Olly will always be the one, I am never changing. More...

Olly rocks! My partner and I have had regular sessions with him for over a year now. Not only is he knowledgeable and 100% professional in all he does, but he is really friendly and welcoming guy too.
He is totally reliable, punctual, and responsive to his clients’ wishes.
We cannot recommend him highly enough. More...

Olly is an incredibly professional whilst fun and freindly Personal Trainer. Unlike numerous trainers I’ve experienced before, Olly ensures I understand the target muscle area of every exercise with a close eye to form to ensure safety whilst training. Olly has a very caring nature, helping me to learn to listen to both my mind and body when training. Through my Personal Training with Olly he has given me a new confidence and pushed me to reached my goals. Olly ensures every session challenges me in order for me to feel and see the results. It’s a real enjoyment to train with Olly and would highly recommend. More...
