Working with TheMitoMovement has been absolute blast. This was my first time having a personal trainer and the experience has been very enlightening.
Tej was always patient and encouraging. The sessions were always fun and he had a good way of making you do more than you thought was possible.
The things I have learnt ( both nutrition wise and fitness training wise) will definitely stay with me forever.
I achieved my goals of losing weight and being fitter.
I wholeheartedly recommend working with Tej. You will be glad you did.

I’ve been working with Teji for the last 3 years. Not only have I noticed a significant amount of weight loss during that time, I’ve seen a huge change in other aspects of my life.
My general life has vastly improved from my gut health, sleep, happiness and motivation. I’ve been helped throughout by Teji’s in depth knowledge and thorough approach. He’s helped me find a balanced lifestyle that both benefits me and is one I can continue to maintain.
I’d recommend Tej to anybody who’s looking to improve their overall health and fitness, he covers every aspect in such detail you really feel how personalised his service really is.

I would like thank Tej who helped me very much with my diet, breathing exercises and recommendations in taking right supplements. God bless
Gulinda
I’ve been into fitness/nutrition for many years but I felt like my efforts where not having an impact on my goals. I felt like my ‘plateau’ lasted forever! After working with Tej I lost a stone in 3 months and I am more in control of my nutritional habits now (and alcoholic beverages- a very important blocker) and enjoying my journey. I’m still going to push myself a bit further to gain more lean body mass but I can confidently say Tej was amazing, he put a lot of time in and looked at my life holistically instead of just one area. Very happy with the results! Thank you Tej 💪🏽 More...

I signed up to Tej at the beginning of January of this year. I felt so unhappy with my weight and felt like there was nothing I could do to change this.
My goal was to loose weight in time for my brothers wedding in September. Tej reassured me from the first time I spoke to him that although it would be a challenge I would reach my goal!
Although I started with Tej to loose weight I gained much more. I was in a really bad space mentally and working with Tej not only helped me out with physically feeling better but also mentally! I forgot how much I loved being active, Tej gave me a goal of reaching 10,000 steps a day and this was something that I started to really enjoy achieving. It became a family affair and I got all my family involved in daily walks. This was great not only for me but for the whole family.
I was with Tej for six months and in that time I transformed myself from someone who felt super insecure about her appearance, to someone who not only feels confident in what I wear but also in life too! Even when I felt like I’d had a bad week, he reassured me that this was okay and helped me to look at the situation in a different way! I realised that this wasn’t just another diet but that it was a lifestyle a choice. Now nine month later I can say that I’d never go back to how I was. I’ve learnt so many important skills which I have now applied to my daily life!
I could not recommend Tej enough, if you’re someone who doesn’t believe that you can do it I am telling you that you can! With Tej guiding you along the way you’ll reach your goal and so much more! Overall I got back the person that I used to be and I could thank him enough for helping me to achieve this!

Tej was a great trainer to work with for the last couple on months! I enjoyed every session with him and thought the sessions were effective and imaginative. Tej helped me with both nutrition and exercise and I have definitely experienced a positive change with both. Would definitely recommend him and will hopefully be working with him in the future. :) More...

Deb
I've been training with Tej for nearly a year now and feel so motivated to see my physical stamina, endurance and muscle toning improve. Tej's customized workout and nutrition plans helped me as a beginner to take actions right from the start. Ultimately with his flexibility even during lockdowns I was able to continue my remote workout online to make sure I kept the momentum of my physical fitness. I would rate his services highly and recommend to all whether you are a beginner like me or experienced fitness enthusiast. More...

I have been working with the Moro Movement since September 2019. I have lost over 50 pounds in weight and completely reshaped my physique with Tej’s expert help and support, both physically and nutritionally. And it never gets boring!

It's been incredibly 6 months working with Tej, I have experienced the high and lows but I wouldn't change non of it. He has guided me throughout this process and seeing a better side to me and in myself, I feel more confident has grown in me and my body. I know they are a long way to go buts it is going in the right direction. Want to thank Tej and his knowledgable in believing in me and helping me get through this. Would highly recommend anyone who wants lifetime change. Feeling proud!! More...

Definitely recommend personal training and nutrition advice from Tej. He has been key in helping me and hubby to not only get fitter but healthier too. Not only does Tej tailor each exercise program he also gives nutrition advice which compliments the training regime. We have definitely noticed a massive improvement in a short space of time in strength, stamina and overall health. Compared to other trainers he has a friendly and personable approach. I recommend Tej to help you with training, nutrition, long term health goals and wellbeing! Well worth the investment, wish we’d come across him sooner! More...
Jay Patel
TheMitoMovement headed my Tej is such a professional and knowledgeable outfit. I approached Tej a few months ago to help me with my acid reflux as well as aiming to get leaner and fitter and he's been a game changer when it comes to the nutrition and dietary aspect helping with both the acid reflux and attaining a leaner physique as I reduced my body fat percentage by over 6%. His insight into nutrition has been invaluable as it was the missing piece of the puzzle for me to supplement my active life style. I'm hoping to run with what I have learnt now which is another thing with Tej and the MitoMovement, its all about sustainability which is vital and not just jumping on a fad diet for quick short term gains. Appreciate the work Tej and keep smashing it! More...
MANDY RILEY
Working with Tej is a pleasure. From the very first appointment I could tell that he understood the challenges I'd been facing where so many others hadn't, this was a refreshing change. He has changed my health challenges for the better and every day I follow his guidance and recommendations. I cannot recommend him highly enough! More...
How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
Diet is one of the major pillars to feeling & looking your best. IF you can get it to work for you.
In today's world it would be more appropriate to rephrase the question to:
'How important is if for someone's health and wellbeing to successfully eat a healthy diet?'
Nail that and you’re 80-90% of the way there.
Lifting weights, cardio, HIIT and your stretching & mobility are the easy part. Getting your nutrition & lifestyle in check is the hardest (for most people) yet plays the biggest role in getting results.
Hence why I specialise in getting that part right!
For those who have chronic health challenges Nutrition can play a massive role in management & support of their condition to improve their quality of life.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
Support, guidance, education, systems-thinking, accountability & not being afraid to tell you what's good for you!
All that delivered professionally but with an element of fun.
Getting a healthy balance of serious work to get results & enjoying the journey is important!
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Finding what works for you as well as some good old fashioned consistency (it'll most likely take 3 times longer than you think), pig-headed determination, discipline, a good system that doesn't make change a major drain on willpower & great coach of course!
What do you love most about your job?
Getting people results that make them feel & look their best whilst developing great professional relationships.
What inspired you to start your own business?
1. Because I love & have always been obsessed with all things related to health, fitness & human performance in general since the age of 12.
2. To create a system & resource that allows people to navigate the mis-information & overload of the internet.
3. I wanted people to get the best results & coaching possible using my education & experience to try to get them to to find their individual healthy habits that work for them.
Why should our clients choose you?
You won't find many health professionals with a Biomedical science background trained in Nutritional Therapy and are also qualified as a Personal Trainer.
With vast experience working with many different clients of all background I can apply my education in medical science, nutrition, biomedical testing & fitness to utilise many resources & tools to bring about the positive changes people want to see.... Only if they're ready to do so!
Oh and I do all of this whilst making the journey as fun as possible (because that also matters).
Most importantly, I can be very flexible depending on the client’s personality and if someone requires more military or gentler coaching style I will adapt accordingly.
It’s all about you and your needs.
