I had a great session with Colin, focussing on correct form during glute and quad strengthening exercise. Colin was very knowledgeable and gave me several pieces of advice to begin doing barbell squats. I also learnt about taking appropriate breaks between sets to allow my muscles to recover. I highly recommend him as a personal trainer.

It was an amazing session with Colin today , very helpful and really informative and awesome on explaining everything that I need . Can’t wait to have seen you again . Many thanks.

Really enjoyed my session with Colin. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and explained everything clearly throughout the workout. He pushed me to challenge myself while making sure my form and technique were correct. Overall, a very motivating and professional session — highly recommended!

Had a great session with Colin. He was so helpful and guided me through today’s leg day session. He is patient and kind to answer all of my questions and encouraged me to push myself to my limits. I really enjoyed the workout and it was very helpful. He is also very experienced so that he knows the exact way to work on different parts of the leg, which is very important. Much thanks to today’s session!

Colin was great at giving me clear instructions on how to use the machines for the results I'm aiming for. As a total newbie to the gym he made me feel capable and welcome!

Colin is such a positive individual. Very knowledgeable. He was very helpful and he had a keen interest in what my gym goals were. Very supportive. Looking forward to getting further help from someone who knows what they are talking about
Great inspiration

Was really happy with how i was treated and infomation i was told . Very friendly attitude and very clear teaching . Was great session

Colin is a really friendly face around the gym and an excellent personal trainer. He is very knowledgeable, committed and focussed. He has helped me so much over the last year or so with many gym questions I have had. For example, when the glutes machine was broken for a long time, I asked Colin what I could do instead. He very kindly took the time out of his own training to show me an alternative way to do the same exercise and how to do it safely (which is a big focus for him). I have complete confidence in his advice. He is brilliant at encouraging me (and I see him do the same for others) in my efforts and celebrating my progress and wins, however small. I recommend Colin very highly as a personal trainer.

I had the chance to be advised by Colin extensively when I started training. His empathy, understanding of what it requires and williness to support you and share his personal experience of his transformation have had a significant impact on me and I am grateful for this!

I actually had an amazing session today I really enjoyed myself the last time I lost weight. I did it like not so much alone but it was I was very confused in what I needed the nutrition and how to use gym equipment so I always stay at home but today coming out and meeting new people and actually really enjoying myself and seeing you know there’s like a little community going on with people know each other and they speak to each other and greet each other. It was really really nice. I most definitely will be going back and I really wanna hit my goals and from the looks of it it’s going to be absolutely a great journey.

After years of putting others first—carrying extra weight, eating and drinking too much, and dealing with long‑term health issues following hospitalisation for Covid‑19—I decided it was finally time to get fit and healthy. I was a big girl with high blood pressure, menopausal symptoms, and all the aches and pains that come with them.
In 2024, I signed up for a Dream Challenge charity event: a 320km cycle through Laos. That’s when I first engaged with Colin to help me prepare. Colin didn’t just design a tailored training programme—he got on the bike with me, helped improve my technique, boosted my confidence, and pushed me forward on the days when I felt I had nothing left. He challenged me, but he also truly listened. When doubts crept in, he talked them through with me, helped me understand what was holding me back, and encouraged me to move past it.
Thanks to his guidance and support, I completed the challenge and raised £2,000 for a charity supporting young people with complex and life‑limiting illnesses. I’ve lost weight—and I continue to do so. His programme has eased my aches and pains and strengthened my whole body.
Colin’s support didn’t stop there. He created an ongoing strength and stamina programme that continues to improve my everyday life. He is mindful of my nutritional needs and incredibly sensitive to the realities of being a 60‑year‑old woman navigating menopausal challenges. Most importantly, Colin understood and never judged me—something that meant a great deal, especially as the complexities of life as a parent of a severely disabled young man sometimes impacted my ability to train consistently.
Today, I am fitter, stronger, more confident, and more determined than ever. My journey continues, and I’m still making progress every day.
Next up: a cycle across Thailand!
Thank you, Colin, for your continued understanding and support

A Life-Changing Experience — Colin Gave Me My Health and Confidence Back

I met Colin after developing a number of serious medical issues following Covid, pneumonia, and eventually diabetes. I was struggling physically and mentally — even walking up a flight of stairs felt impossible. I gained weight, lost confidence, and withdrew into myself, using food as an escape.

The idea of stepping into a gym filled me with dread. I tried, and I failed. It felt intimidating, and the gym staff I encountered showed little understanding of my feelings or my needs.

Then I met Colin.

Being a similar age and openly sharing his own journey gave me the hope I desperately needed. He designed a program and a sustainable way of eating that helped me regain control. That, in turn, gave me the confidence to try the gym again — but this time, he was right there with me. Guiding me. Encouraging me. Helping me heal, physically and mentally.

His energy, consistency, and genuine determination to help me become a better version of myself pushed me to achieve things I never believed I could.

Today, I’m proud to say:

I am diabetes-free.
I can not only climb stairs easily — I can run 5K, something I once thought was impossible.
Would I recommend Colin? Absolutely, yes.

His workout plans, nutritional guidance, and mindset coaching have been nothing short of amazing. Working with him has been a truly positive, life-changing experience.

Thank you, Colin.
