Hi, My name is Gavin Elson, and my aim is to help you achieve your health and fitness goals. I don't believe in 'quick fix' methods, so won't guarantee you will lose 14lbs in the first 2 weeks... rather I look to educate clients around everything involved with optimizing their health. From physical training to nutrition, to often forgotten things like sleep habits, breathing correctly, and the benefits of quiet time and nature.

Become the healthiest & happier you. We empower and individuals to become stronger, fitter and more energised. Training in small groups of up to 4 means you can train with us more per week, for less than 1-1 personal training! We preach sustainable methods that last, plus you can even trial us for 30 days with no-strings-attached. Get in touch now to secure your spot - we don't have as many due to the nature of our small groups.

Emma is such a passionate and kind PT. She tailors everything to each client and always checks what their goals are and how they’re feeling and getting on. Emma’s not a PT who sends you a workout or gives you a session and disappears until next time, she truly cares about clients and there progress. I did home workouts and meal plans with Emma for 12 weeks and saw such a difference! Highly recommend Emma to anyway, no matter the size of your goals!

I became a Personal Trainer because I love exercise and truly believe it is the best therapy for a bad day. You don't have to be the sportiest or the fittest to enjoy exercise, you just have to have the right Trainer that will create programs that suit you, your abilities and what you like to do. Just because you don't like running on the treadmill or lifting heavy weights doesn't mean you can't exercise.

Kieron is fantastic. I am 80 years old and met Kieron about a year ago following a low period in my life.Had spent a long time with my left leg in plaster followed by months in a brace and ankle in a surgical boot. These problems were the result of several falls. I was in poor physical shape. Over the last year Kieron has worked his magic. I am now walking with limited aids have control and strength in my legs and in good physical shape.
My sessions with Kieron were hard but very enjoyable, he knows his trade, very knowledgeable patient,encouraging and a good sense of humour. Definitely recommend him

Physical Preparation is the ultimate in personalisation. Your first session is a full assessment of what your body can and can’t do, looking at range of motion, stability and strength. From there we build an incredibly personal program to achieve your aesthetic and performance goals, while also improve how your body works and feels at the same time. We provide online resources to help with this and a supportive nutrition package.

HARRIET COOPER
I have been having PT sessions with Halena since summer 2018 - my little boy had just turned one and i had finally got to the point where i felt like i could concentrate on my body again after getting bad ab separation during pregnancy - the change has been huge - not just physically but mentally too. She pushes me harder than id' ever push myself, but never that far that i dread the next session. i work outside during the summer and in my own home in the winter, i never feel like i'm standing on ceremony for anyone like i do at a gym and being a mother herself Halena completely understands my worries and helps me over come them. I've never been more body confident and my sessions won't be stopping any time soon. I'm weight lifting, sprinting, doing challenges that I never thought i'd be fit enough, but more importantly, confident enough to do. Halena you have become a firm friend - thank you!

I’ve known Adam for years and asked for his advice in shedding some stubborn body fat. I’ve been training for years but never been quite able to get enough muscle definition and get my abs to show and with holidays to Ibiza and Greece looming I wanted to make sure I was in good shape.
Adam gave me gym workout plan and diet to follow and the results speak for themselves. Within a month I was in the best shape of my life at 8% body fat! It’s not just the physical appearance that changed, I felt better and more alive. I had more energy even though I was working out more, I think the stripped back clean eating really made the difference.
I can’t thank Adam enough.

BOOTCAMP & PERSONAL TRAINING I have been a fitness professional for over 10 years with both fitness qualifications and a degree in Sport & Exercise Science. I run bootcamps in Southbourne and do 1-to-1/small group Personal Training in the Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch area. If you'd like to find out more, visit www.bournemouthfitness.com or give me a call on the number provided.
Through my military training and multiple years of experience within the gym industry, I have come to help hundreds of men and women lose weight and tone-up with my highly efficient, bespoke plans designed to challenge you in ways that are both fun and progressive towards your weight loss goals. Unlike most personal trainers out there I always put your needs first in order to teach you everything there is to know about the fitness lifestyle so that you will never need another personal trainer again.
Hi, My name is Gavin Elson, and my aim is to help you achieve your health and fitness goals. I don't believe in 'quick fix' methods, so won't guarantee you will lose 14lbs in the first 2 weeks... rather I look to educate clients around everything involved with optimizing their health. From physical training to nutrition, to often forgotten things like sleep habits, breathing correctly, and the benefits of quiet time and nature. All of these factors can have an impact on your health and ultimately your physical appearance. My goal is to get clients to a place where they are happy with themselves, both physically and mentally, and confident in the knowledge that they can navigate exercise, lifestyle, and diet choices without it causing boredom or unhappiness. I offer 1-2-1 personal training sessions, as well as an online coaching option where I can guide you through your weekly workout programmes, tailor a nutrition plan to enable you to eat what you want whilst still moving towards your target, and help optimise your habits and daily routines, all without having to leave your home/or your current gym. The online coaching option gives an overall package, creating accountability with weekly check-ins, giving you a set routine for what you need to do in order to achieve your desired results, and offering advice on any matter, at any time, to help you through those tricky situations like eating out or boredom eating etc. Please call the mobile number provided or send me a message with a contact number if you would like more info or to book a session. I look forward to working with you!
My approach to optimum fitness is using whichever type of training fits best with the client. If you want to lose weight but hate running, then we will look at other options so you will enjoy the time we spend together, whilst also achieving your goals. If you have an injury or can't do certain exercises, we will work around that and fit the workout to you as an individual!
In my opinion, the body of your dreams comes from creating the lifestyle which compliments that body. You need to think, act, and live like the person who would have this body. Creating lifestyle changes and implementing healthy habits wil make it much easier to work towards the body of your dreams!
Everyone knows the basics of what they need to do for fitness, they generally know the basics of what they need to eat and not eat... what really makes the difference is having someone who can encourage and motivate you, as well as hold you accountable for your goals and targets. I have worked with a diverse range of people all over the world, coaching fitness as well as extreme sports, so have developed a strong sense for reading people, knowing how hard they need to be pushed, and what motivates them. I also study psychology and the power of habits, so I am able to help you create new positive habits, new patterns of thinking, and essentially a new way of being which will set you up to win! With the right mindset in place, motivation will be less important as you rely on habits to keep you on track.
Yes - I can either write a tailored program for you to follow, with regular check-ins designed for you to ask any questions and keep you accountable. Or I can offer a bespoke 1-2-1 PT session via Zoom so you can workout from the comfort of your own lounge or garden!
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.
