Weight loss often feels like solving an impossible puzzle. People try diet plans, workout routines, and lifestyle changes but feel frustrated when they don't see results. Follow this 6-week workout plan to see real results.
There’s far too many things to pick from! If I’ve got to narrow it down to just one, it’s very rewarding helping someone on a potentially life-changing journey. I get to see real change in my clients, whether that be in their overall health, weight, or attitude.
I was always athletic at school. I was a part of as many sports clubs as possible and I would never seem to slow down – being active is simply who I am. When I first joined a gym I quickly learnt that I could set new milestones and beat them again and again. Being able to see progression was fascinating and pushing myself to new limits was great. I became friends with the personal trainers at my gym and the job they were describing was simply perfect for me. I then booked onto my first training course and the rest was history!
I have a Master Personal Trainer Diploma, certifications in sports massage, and even ante and postnatal instructing. I’m certified to instruct cycling, weight lifting, and circuit training.
I can work with clients from home, at a local gym, in public areas/parks, from my private workout studio, or even at their office. Modern life is busy and can be difficult to balance, so we can discuss the most suitable options for your routine and budget.

Working with Kim was amazing! She designed a personalized two-month program for me, and I trained three times a week (sometimes twice). Kim really listened to my goals and tailored each session to what I wanted to achieve. After two months of consistent training and sticking to my protein targets, I lost 3 centimetres around my waist, and my legs and glutes became noticeably more muscular. Beyond the physical changes, I feel so much stronger overall - I can lift heavier, and my tendons and ligaments can handle more weight. Before, I could barely hang from a bar, but now my grip strength has improved a lot. Overall, I feel stronger, more capable, and more confident.

When I started coaching with Kim I felt a bit lost with calisthenics and lifting. I knew what I wanted to work toward but a lot of it felt unachievable alone. Kim took the time to listen to my goals and put together a program that fit my schedule and worked alongside what I was already doing that was working well. The program included all the areas I wanted to improve; hand balances, ring skills (including flow, meat hook, back lever, muscle ups, skin the cat) and shoulder stands. As my goals and schedule shifted, Kim changed the plan to suit. The platform she uses made it easy to stay in touch, she always gave detailed feedback on videos which helped me to feel confident about my technique and form. She often encouraged me to push to achieve things I didn't think possible (weighted pistol squats and dips?!). Kim is so encouraging, kind, understanding - super easy to talk to and genuinely supportive - probably most importantly; super knowledgeable. I now feel much more confident training calisthenics alone and that is a huge gift I am so grateful for

To add to my previous review: feel incredibly fortunate to have found Andrea. She was my personal trainer for over two years, and the impact of working with her has gone far beyond structured training sessions. From our very first online meeting, it was clear that Andrea genuinely listened. She took the time to understand my individual needs, values, and circumstances, and I immediately felt that the training would be adapted around me rather than expecting me to fit into a pre-set programme. That feeling of being heard and understood remained consistent throughout our time working together. Andrea took a truly personalised approach, carefully considering my goals, concerns, and priorities—both short- and long-term—and developing a plan that was tailored specifically to me rather than generic or one-size-fits-all. Her support extended well beyond training sessions; she consistently reminded me of upcoming sessions, ensured I was prepared in advance, and regularly checked in between sessions to see how I was feeling both physically and mentally. This level of organisation and care made a significant difference and showed how genuinely invested she was in my progress. Her approach is holistic in the truest sense. Andrea looked beyond exercise alone and trained me to improve my overall day-to-day wellbeing. She introduced breathing techniques, posture awareness, and practical strategies that I continue to use independently, even after completing our training. These tools have had a lasting impact and reflect her focus on long-term health rather than short-term results. She also provided thoughtful, practical guidance on nutrition, lifestyle, sleep, and stress, all supported by clear structure and realistic, achievable plans. Her depth of knowledge is evident in everything she does—she always explains the reasoning behind exercises and recommendations using reliable, evidence-based information, which builds immense trust and confidence. I particularly valued her flexibility and commitment. When I was away, Andrea continued to support me through online sessions, ensuring continuity despite my schedule. She was also consistently accommodating when work commitments arose, willingly adjusting training dates at short notice when needed. I greatly appreciated her detailed and insightful follow-up emails. They were comprehensive, motivating, and informative, helping me understand my progress and how to continue improving independently. Andrea also gave me ongoing access to all of our training sessions and programmes, allowing me to revisit and use them even after our regular sessions ended—something I found incredibly valuable and generous. Andrea is consistently approachable and dependable; any concern raised—whether related to training or health—was met with a thoughtful, thorough, and well-considered response. As a Muslim woman, privacy and respect for personal beliefs are extremely important to me, and Andrea demonstrated exceptional sensitivity and care in this regard, always making a genuine effort to ensure my values were respected. This level of consideration meant a great deal to me and further reinforced the trust I had in her. As I come to the end of our regular PT sessions, it is clear that Andrea’s work is centred on long-term empowerment. She does not simply train clients; she educates and equips them with the knowledge, confidence, and tools needed to continue their journey independently. While it is not easy to step away from regular sessions, I feel confident and supported moving forward because of everything she has taught me. If you are looking for a personal trainer who is deeply invested in your long-term health, strength, and wellbeing, I cannot recommend Andrea highly enough. Thank you, Andrea, for your dedication, care, and the lasting impact you have had on my journey. I will also end this review to say she is FAB and I am lucky to have found her. Good luck Andrea with all your future endeavours and thank you for improving my health and helping me throughout tough times.

Should I work out every day of the week?
It depends on your end goal. If you’re training for a marathon, you might work out nearly every day of the week. If you’re a low-level beginner, a minimum of three times a week is enough to make a noticeable impact. No matter what you’re working out for, everyone needs rest and recovery days. Without them, your muscles won’t be able to recuperate and grow strong, so remember to factor in some down-time, too!
Where can I have my personal training sessions?
Pretty much anywhere! The great thing about personal training is that it’s flexible - as long as you have the necessary equipment, you and your instructor can decide to have your sessions from the gym, your home, the park, or even your office if you want to!
Does my fitness instructor need to know anything about me?
Yes! First of all, they will chat with you about your goals, and discuss the best way to achieve them. They should also ask you to fill in a consent form to check that you don’t have any pre-existing health conditions that could impact your exercise. They’ll also carry out a health assessment to get a better idea of your current fitness level, tailoring your workout plan around that.
What does a standard personal training session involve?
It's tricky to say, as personal training sessions vary significantly depending on what you want to achieve and the type of workout. Generally, one personal training session tends to last forty-five minutes to one hour. It will start with a gentle warm-up, followed by the nitty-gritty of the actual workout, with stretches to end the session. Remember, warming up and stretching is essential for injury prevention - it’s just as important as the main part of the workout!
What qualifications should a personal trainer have?
A personal trainer needs to be clued up on all aspects of fitness, from the most effective exercise techniques to nutrition and human anatomy- that’s a lot of responsibility! You need to make sure your professional is suitably qualified for the job. After all, you shouldn’t cut corners when it comes to investing in your health. Make sure your trainer has the minimum qualifications required to practice. In the UK, this is the Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification.
Can I get a Personal Trainer online?
Absolutely! Online personal training has become increasingly popular as more people are looking to maintain their fitness during lockdowns and gyms closing. As long as you and your personal trainer have a strong internet connection and a device to stream on like a laptop, tablet or smartphone, there's no reason why your session can't be delivered remotely.
