This guy is amazing.
I was looking for someone who could help me find a way through my work and home commitments back to fitness and he has come in big time for me. Small changes bit by bit repeated relentlessly has been the moto. 3 months later my lifestyle is so different. My alcohol intake is cut by 2/3, my food is healthy and fresh, I'm training most days, two stone lighter (with more to go), stronger and loving it.
I’m so happy I started training with Ant, truly a nice guy with a lot of knowledge and support to offer. One of my best investments for myself.
So much more than a PT he is there to pick up the good days and bad days and guide with nutrition. I wouldn't have been able to play at the level I do without his support and guidance. He has been invaluable in making my first Super League season a success.
Every session is challenging but also extremely fun. I have seen noticeable improvements in my ability and overall physique. I would admit that I found working out somewhat of a chore but now I look forward to my workouts and that is down to Anthony.
“He makes my regularly changing sessions enjoyable, interesting and testing (obviously) leaving me feeling forty years younger as I leave the gym.”
“His knowledge and experience is vast, giving me the confidence to workout on my own and achieve results. I can't recommend Anthony any higher. Take the plunge... you won't regret it.”
“Anthony is a brilliant coach, who has helped me grow in confidence as well as achieve a number of personal goals. He always goes above and beyond to help his clients…”
“Brilliant coach! The programme was simple yet so effective. I would highly recommend Anthony to anyone in any situation!”
“I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Anthony in the highest terms - he offers a really personalised service.”
“I can’t thank Anthony enough for his hard work with me and would recommend him to anyone looking for any sort of training, coaching or guidance - this is the man to contact.”
“I couldn’t have hoped for better results from training with Anthony. I’m stronger and leaner as he tailors my programmes and our PT sessions to me and my goals. Each session is novel and interesting and I look forward to every one of them.”
“I am absolutely smashing my goals and breaking through my training plateaus. Anthony is a brilliant trainer who will push you and help you achieve your training goals!”
“Anthony is professional, friendly and knowledgable. I have followed three of his programmes now and he is always extremely helpful and willing to answer any questions you have.”
"I have spent years on and off going through the motions in gyms without any progress and as I got older the harder it got, to the point were I thought about giving up and putting it down to middle age! Just finished a 12 week program with Anthony and had real results feeling great!
"This guy. Anthony is a genius in the world of muscle building and fat loss. His training programs are impeccable and tailored to the absolute best of your individual needs."
"My fitness levels and endurance continue to improve and personal training is the highlight of my week. I am fitter now in my fifties than I have ever been. Thanks Anthony!"
"I’m fitter, happier, slimmer, stronger and more confident than ever before, the speed of the progression has been incredible, the programme has been incredibly efficient. I highly recommend him, he’s the best."
"My strength, my endurance, my view on food, energy, exercise all turned on its head and I have him to thank for it."
"Anthony's experience, attention to detail and enthusiasm drove me to progress quickly and safely, and I've been absolutely delighted with the results. I simply cannot recommend Ant highly enough."
“Anthony is a top trainer, who really knows his stuff and is a great laugh to train with. He has filled me with confidence and is always approachable and happy to pass on guidance.”
“I could not recommend Anthony any more highly. After doing my first programme and seeing the results, I cannot wait to get started on the next programme he has tailored for me. This guy really knows his stuff.”
"With Anthony’s help, continuous guidance and feedback, I dropped 11lbs of body fat for my wedding. I’m fitter now than I’ve ever been and I look and feel so much better.”
"I couldn't recommend him enough. When you leave the gym, you leave feeling 100% better than you did when you walked in and I think that speaks for itself..
If you want a professional personal trainer who sets realistic goals, nobody could be more ideal."
"His programmes and advice are always informed by incredible knowledge... but his intelligence is second only to his passion for what he does. He really cares about helping you to get where you want to be."
"Anthony is so knowledgeable and passionate about his work; it really is inspiring. I have felt fantastic benefits from our training sessions such as much improved fitness, better muscle tone, increased confidence and well-being and a great sense of achievement."
“Anthony is really motivating and pushes you to your limits helping you surpass your goals. He is very focused on using the correct form and posture for each exercise, something that I didn't really understand initially but I really appreciate to avoid any injury. My back pain has vanished and I feel full of energy; I never thought I'd be able to pick my son up without pain! Thank you so much Anthony.”
A comprehensive, completely unique and open-ended programme for those that wish to make long-term changes to their health, fitness and physique.
Your programme will be entirely unique to you and the specific goals that you pursue. The training will be based around your schedule and will be designed to accommodate any preferences that you may have. Popular goals include:
Fat loss
Increased muscle mass
Increased strength
Greater cardiovascular fitness
Bespoke Personal Training sessions will last between 45 minutes to 1 hour.
The Body Transformation is great for those looking to achieve significant changes in a shorter period of time.
The package is available for a minimum commitment of 12 weeks. It includes:
A consultation to determine your starting point and discuss your goals
A comprehensive analysis of your body composition, fitness and nutrition
An individualised and progressive resistance and cardiovascular programme
Nutritional advice and weekly monitoring
Three personal training sessions a week
The service is based on the individual fitness, aesthetic and wellbeing requirements of each client. For optimal results, the package requires a minimum commitment to three hours of one-on-one training a week for the course of the programme. The training is vigorous and the improvements in both fitness and physique can be drastic. This package is highly recommended to those who have a strong desire to improve their physique for an upcoming event, such as a wedding or a holiday.
While the programme will yield short-term results, it is intended to bring about long-term changes. It forms a foundation from which you can build, encouraging a healthier lifestyle and a lasting relationship with fitness. Upon completion, you will be set to continue training effectively by yourself. However, many clients choose to transfer to another package or single sessions to stay motivated or to perfect weak points.
Individualised training programmes provide you with an effective plan for you to follow by yourself*, in order to reach your training goals. These make a great alternative to bespoke training when you're short on time or limited by location.
Consultation in person or via video chat to establish your current position and goals
