John Allnutt
Three months ago, at the age of 69, I was told by my doctor that I had progressed from being pre-diabetic to being diabetic and that I would need daily medication for this condition.
I have never liked doing exercise or going to a gym but I knew drastic changes to my lifestyle were needed if I wanted to halt my decline into diabetes. I had been doing long walks before breakfast for a couple of years since my retirement started, but clearly this was not sufficient.
I knew Mateo was a skilled masseur and fitness trainer, he told me about the Fitness Republik gym, in Streatham, he had opened with a business partner Miranda and he invited me to visit it. I was very impressed by all the exercise machines and that it was not open-plan but a number of interconnecting rooms for different exercises. I started taking a weekly, one hour personal training session with Mateo and it really has changed my life.
Mateo is a great personal trainer, he supported and encouraged me to change my attitude towards exercise and after a couple of months I even started to enjoy the sessions with him. I continued with my daily walks and I did the exercise routines Mateo taught me on my own at home almost every day. I lost around 4 kilograms in weight and last week I had blood tests following which my doctor told me that there was a significant improvement in my haemoglobin A1C test results and that my diabetes was in remission. I feel much fitter, stronger, happier and everyone I meet tells me I am looking younger and heathier. I intend to continue with my new regime and lose even more weight and become even fitter and stronger with Mateo’s help.
I highly recommend personal training sessions with Mateo at the Fitness Republik gym if you need help getting fit, losing weight and beating diabetes.
Mateo, thanks for your help and support I really appreciate it!

I’ve been training at Fitness Republik for about 7/8 months, and I never would have thought I’d enjoy working out as much as I do. Miranda, Matteo and Hannah are all such wonderfully positive and inspiring coaches! They push me but also know when I’m struggling and need gentle encouragement. They mix up the routines to keep it fresh. I’ve gone down a dress size and feel very fit and capable since working with them. It’s a lovely feeling walking into their gym. More...

After my free induction, I had today (13 Oct) my first training session. Hard - absolutely, intense - definitely, did I enjoy it - most definitely. Between Miranda and Matteo they kept me going, encouraged and pushed me further than I would take myself but not enough to put me off. Always making sure I was hydrated and rested enough between sets. I'm confident that they will help me reach my fitness goal. More...

I would only give 5 stars for Fitness Republik! They have changed my life. I used to get the worse anxiety and heart palpitations ever after covid and since training with Matteo and Miranda it has reduced so much!
In only a month and half I lost 8 kilos!!!
They are super passionate and very dedicated to helping you work on your physically health with realistic expectations. Can not thank them both enough!

This was the first time using a PT. I am fortunate to work with Matteo, He is patient and caters to my needs and what I want to achieve. I am able to learn new techniques and really push myself. I would defo encourage others to join. More...
Stella

I’d never tried PT before so was quite apprehensive when I made the initial enquiry, but from the first chat I had with Miranda she made me feel at ease.
She listens carefully to your wants and needs and gives her time generously to offer support in all aspects of your wellbeing.
As a team, Miranda and Matteo are wonderful motivators, pushing you in the gym, and consistently empowering you to reach your goals to become a happier you.
I’m just sorry I didn’t reach out earlier. I’m finishing this year feeling hopeful for the future and like anything is achievable.

I cannot recommend Miranda highly enough. After a hard year and battling with body image and self confidence issues, Miranda has been nothing short of amazing.
She is accommodating to all ability levels, shes motivating and supportive. Not only does she help you become physically stronger, she also helps with nutrition and how you view yourself. She has gone above and beyond to ensure that I get the most out of our sessions as possible. I even managed to get my friend along and she has chosen to go ahead with a block of personal training sessions with her too.
I worried that having a trainer would actually make me feel worse about myself and I’d be doing it for all the wrong reasons. Miranda’s made me realise that I’m doing this for me and not to fit into social norms.
I truly believe that Miranda came into my life at the perfect time and for the first time since I can remember, I feel that my body goals are achievable and I’ve started loving myself a bit more since meeting her.
Beyond grateful and excited to continue seeing progress!

I am having so much fun! Who knew working out could feel like this! Miranda is my 1:1, but we also have a crew. We work out together and although we all have different goals and reasons for being at the gym, Miranda facilities a space in which there is both individuality and teamwork at the same time. We laugh a lot, sometimes we cry (and it feels safe to do that). We even drink coffee and eat cake on occasion too… working with Miranda has made me view my abilities in a completely new light. It’s great to have her cheerleading me one minute, pushing me the next and training beside me at other times. I love it and I don’t want it to end! More...
Sophie Ward
I couldn’t have asked for a better PT fit than Miranda and Matteo. If you’re looking for PTs that listen to you and care as deeply about your goals as you do and who can challenge you to achieve them (all whilst reminding you that you’re gorgeous just as you are) then I can’t recommend these two enough. Ive spent my entire life hating exercise and using it as a punishment for eating “bad” foods (there are no bad foods as Miranda will tell you 😉) and for the first time ever I wake up at 6am excited to go to the gym - I never in a million years thought I’d say that but that’s the power of finding the right people to support you and M&M are exactly that!

Very communicative and friendly. Works around to meet your schedule and very to you talk to. She does push you as much as you can take and then a little more to get to your goals. I will be continuing with Miranda for a while as she understood my goals and has planned to work with me to achieve them. Highly recommended! More...

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
We provide a tailored exercise and nutritional program based on their diet preferences, lifestyle and current fitness level.
We also have a wide network of professionals that can support our clients with any of their needs in order to achieve total fitness and improve their general wellbeing.
Last but not least, our approach is very motivational, organic and stemming from personal experience.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Look after your mental health and the body will follow.
Eat nutritious, clean food, drink plenty of water and exercise at least three times/week.
Be in constant movement: take the stairs at work, walk up the escalators when commuting, stand on the tube and train.
If you have a desk bound job, take regular breaks, include some body exercises while the kettle boils, i.e. squats, press ups and lunges.
What do you love most about your job?
We are both a people's person.
We love listening to our clients' stories, have a deep understanding of their lifestyle and help them achieve their goals.
Our aim is to get our clients to become THE BEST versions of themselves and nothing makes us happier when we see them achieving their goals, setting new ones and constantly progressing.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was a successful Retail Manager and I loved my job however I had achieved everything I could in my line of work and there was always something missing.
During lockdown I qualified as a PT with YMCA and that gave me the opportunity to help people in a different way.
At the beginning, it was meant to be just a side job however soon I realized that helping people to get healthier, happier and fitter than ever, gave me the satisfaction I had always craved for.
Seeing my clients changing their lifestyles and hitting their goals, achieving things they never thought they could, gives me enormous happiness and satisfaction.
I also love a good challenge!
Matteo has always worked in the fitness industry and his experience is paramount. We soon realised that we were a great team together and we shared the same views on our approach towards fitness and a person's journey to a healthier lifestyle. We wanted to be different, to distance ourselves from the traditional image of commercial gyms and fitness industry. Our aim is to empower people, to restore the love for exercise, healthy living without having to give up the small pleasures in life.
Why should our clients choose you?
If they are looking for someone motivational, knowledgeable, that has been in their shoes before, then they don't need to look further.
We will be there every step of the way, ready to create a network of support and give them tools for life to help them live the healthy lifestyle desired.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
