Such an amazing 6 weeks! I'm down 3kg and feel so much better. The best part was the education — I finally understand protein, fat, and carb combinations and how to eat for my goals. Thanks for a great challenge!
Sylvia Skutuliene
I just wanted to extend a huge thank you for all your support and encouragement during my first few sessions. You have been patient and taken the time to understand my goals. It took me months to find the confidence to approach a PT — but since doing so, my self-assurance and ability in the gym have greatly improved. As a middle-aged woman, I sometimes feel we're overlooked in the training community, but you've changed my perspective on that. I'm looking forward to challenging myself with the programmes you've created for me, and I'm sure we'll work together again in the future. Thank you!

I joined the 6 week challenge because I wanted a bit more structure and accountability to help me lose some weight before tackling Mont Ventoux in September and to help me improve my eating habits.
The challenge was well organised and easy to fit around work and everyday life. Joe gave everyone access to a training app, put together a personalised exercise plan for each of us that was reviewed and adjusted halfway through the challenge, and shared nutrition advice to help keep us on track. There were also a few group training sessions, Zoom calls and a WhatsApp group where Joe regularly posted updates, videos and encouragement, which helped keep everyone motivated. Joe was always approachable and happy to answer any questions.
Over the 6 weeks I lost just under 4kg and reduced my waist by around 8cm, which I’m really pleased with. More importantly, it’s helped me build better habits that I’ll carry on with.
I’d definitely recommend the challenge to anyone looking for some extra motivation and a bit more structure. The advice is practical, there’s a great team atmosphere and, if you’re prepared to put the effort in, you’ll get results.

I started training with Joe around February because I was unhappy with my weight and desperately wanted to make a change. I also suffer from arthritis, and my joints were really hurting. Since working with Joe, there's been a significant transformation. I've lost a lot of weight, my arthritis is feeling better, and I'm feeling stronger.
I joined the six-week challenge to maintain my motivation, discover new ideas, and meet new people. I've thoroughly enjoyed it; it's been a lot of fun. The challenge also prompted me to re-evaluate my protein intake, and I realized it wasn't quite high enough before. I'm incredibly happy to report that I've lost six and a half centimeters off my waist, and my weight loss has continued consistently throughout the program.
It's been enjoyable trying different types of exercises and being challenged. I would absolutely do it again and intend to continue with the program to maintain these excellent results.

I was struggling to to lose weight and keep up the motivation to keep coming to the gym. I found Joe Aliker on the gym’s website and it was really easy to get in touch with him and organise the first PT session.
Joe listened patiently and introduced me to strength training. He increased the intensity gradually, always pushing me. He also adapted all my personal training to be safe for my neck pain and sciatica.
I recommend him highly for people of all abilities and levels of experience at the gym

I decided to join the 6 week challenge because I wanted some structure and motivation to get back into a routine. From the start, Joe was really welcoming and supportive. The coaching was great, the sessions were well planned, and it was nice knowing there was always someone there to answer questions and keep me accountable.
I’ve definitely noticed a difference, not just physically but mentally too. I feel fitter, stronger, and much more confident with my workouts, and I’ve built healthier habits that I know I’ll stick with.
I’d definitely recommend it to a friend because it’s suitable for all fitness levels, there’s loads of support, and it really helps you stay motivated. It was a really positive experience from start to finish. Thanks, Joe!

Okay, so why did I join the challenge? I was really looking for some advice and support to actually see some improvements in my body weight. I'd been coming to the gym for about six months, but I wasn't really seeing any significant changes, so I thought this would be a great opportunity to kick-start that progress.
I found the program to be great. Joe's training was fantastic, and the app was really easy to use. The workouts were simple and, crucially, they were adjusted for my own skill level, which was incredibly useful.
Overall, I had some really good results, despite the fact that I went away for three weekends out of the challenge! I was a bit worried, thinking I probably wouldn't have the best results because those weekends included lots of eating and drinking. But despite that, I was still able to lose about three kilos and 5.5 centimeters from my waistline.
I'm really happy with the results, and it just goes to show that you can still enjoy your life and get some results at the end of the day. So yeah, I'd highly recommend this challenge to anyone, and I'm really pleased with what I've done

I joined Joe's challenge after nearly a year at the gym without seeing the results I wanted. Training on my own, I felt stuck and wasn't making any progress. I needed guidance, discipline, and a real challenge to help me lose weight and feel stronger.
I found the challenge to be incredibly well-organized and informative, especially regarding nutrition. The workouts on the app were easy to follow, and I particularly appreciated the alternative exercises provided, which allowed me to adapt the program as needed. Joe's regular check-ins were also a huge motivator, keeping me on track throughout the process.
The results have been fantastic! In just six weeks, I've lost two and a half kilos and 6.5 centimeters off my waist. I'm thrilled with my progress, and this challenge has truly motivated me to continue my fitness journey. The app's workouts will continue to be a valuable guide. The results are amazing, the challenge has been great, and I can't wait for the next one!

I joined the challenge because I was looking to lose some weight and achieve specific health and fitness targets. I felt this was an excellent way to focus my efforts and move in the right direction.
I met Joe at the One Leisure gym in Huntingdon, where he was providing information. I immediately recognized that this was exactly what I needed to get motivated and kickstart my weight loss journey.
The results have been truly impressive. I've successfully lost four and a half kilograms and reduced my waistline by 12.4 centimeters. I am extremely happy with these results, and I'm grateful to Joe for his support.

I joined the challenge because I struggled with confidence at the gym, especially after a knee injury in November left me unable to walk well. I knew I needed to strengthen my knees but lacked the confidence to come in alone. I hoped a group, six-week program would provide accountability and connect me with like-minded individuals who might also feel a bit nervous about the gym.
The challenge has truly worked wonders. I now feel much more confident in my appearance and in myself. My confidence in coming to the gym has soared; I remember sitting in my car for two hours before my first session, too nervous to go inside. Now, I walk in confidently, talk to people, greet others from the program, and have even made new friends at the gym.
Regarding results, while losing weight wasn't my primary goal, I've achieved some incredible physical changes. I've lost 11.4 centimeters around my waist, dropped 3.5 kilos, and my body fat index is down by 1.5. Beyond the numbers, I feel much more centered and happy within myself. What more could I ask for?

I joined Joe’s 6 week challenge because I thought I was doing everything right, yet I was still not seeing any physical changes. It was the kickstart I needed to start finally seeing results. I found the small community aspect to be incredibly motivating, and having weekly check in’s kept me accountable.
The nutritional element for me is what made all the difference, having my calories and macros worked out for me and personalised to my own goals took all the guesswork out. The nutritional guides were also really useful.
The workouts were really easy to follow and I liked that it pushed me to try circuit style exercises which I’d shyed away from previously. The technique session was also so helpful for ensuring my form was correct for the different exercises.
Despite being away for 4/6 weekends of the challenge I was so pleased to have still lost 2.5kg!
Thank you for such a well run challenge Joe!

Hi guys, I joined this challenge primarily to lose a little bit of weight before heading back to my main job. It turned out to be a really effective program for me.
The calorie monitoring system was a game-changer. I’ve always struggled with snacking, but having to log everything, even a chocolate bar, into the app made a huge difference. It really held me accountable and helped me make better choices.
The workouts themselves were well-balanced and effective. They weren’t too strenuous, nor were they too easy, striking a good balance between cardio and weight training. I highly recommend sticking to the plan and doing the workouts fully. Even the walking on non-gym days was great; it got me out and made me feel better.
I’m really pleased with the results I achieved. The big one for me was losing 9.5 centimeters off my waistline. I also lost 2.2 kilos, which was exactly what I was after. My clothes are fitting better, and I feel much better overall. I’m going to keep up with the challenge and aim to get down to 100 kilos, which would be a great weight for me. Thanks to Joe, I’m well on track to achieve that. I highly recommend this program

I joined this challenge because I really wanted to get back into my gym routine. I had been away for a while, and it was the perfect moment when Joe approached me and asked if I wanted to do this challenge. I’m incredibly grateful for that invitation.
I needed something to help me get back into a routine, and crucially, I wanted it to be engaging. Before, I was quite bored with the machines, so the challenge really varied things for me, and it was amazing. It was very challenging at first; I honestly thought I wouldn’t be putting much weight on the barbell for long because it felt so heavy. But I progressed really quickly, and I’m so surprised and amazed at how quickly our bodies can get stronger, how incredible we are in terms of recovery and progress.
The group work was incredibly motivating. I knew there was always someone there, and I could always ask questions. Joe was just on the other side of the line, and the WhatsApp and app groups meant I was never left alone. I felt really well looked after throughout the entire process.

I first met Joe at the gym and signed up for a body MOT to understand how he could help me achieve my fitness goals. After months and years of following similar gym routines, I was looking for a new approach.
Joe took the time to listen to what I wanted to achieve, assess my current fitness level, and develop a personalised training programme tailored to my fitness goals. He showed me new ways to use the gym and approach my training, making each session more effective and engaging as well as pushing me to challenge my limits and unlock my potential.
Joe brings an enthusiastic, enjoyable and friendly approach to PT and I would highly recommend him if you're looking to improve your fitness and get the best out of what the gym has to offer.

I joined the six-week challenge because I really wanted a kickstart into the summer. I was looking for some accountability and the kind of help that would keep me on track. I found the group aspect of the program incredibly beneficial; it was great to spur each other on and have other people to chat with about our experiences. Overall, I found it to be a really positive experience.
There were definitely some tough times, and I did go off track slightly now and then, but the program consistently kept me at a really good level. The guidance on calories, how to track them, and understanding my specific targets for weight loss was particularly helpful.
My results were truly fantastic. I ended up losing about 5.5 kg in weight, reduced my waist by 7.1 centimeters, and even dropped 3% in body fat! I am absolutely over the moon with these results.
If you’re looking for help to lose a bit of weight, build muscle, or achieve whatever your fitness goals might be, I think you should definitely consider joining. Joe is brilliant, and I would absolutely recommend him

I joined this 6 week challenge because, to be honest, I was feeling a bit lost with my training. I was active, but I really needed help on the nutrition side of things. That’s where this program truly shone for me.
The app was incredibly handy and made all the difference. It kept me accountable for everything I was eating, which was exactly what I needed. My calories were all worked out for me, and I knew precisely how much protein, carbs, and fats I should be having. This clear nutritional guidance, coupled with the structured training plan, was incredibly helpful.
Throughout the six weeks, it went really well. Of course, there were moments when the training felt a bit tricky, and I was tired, but I learned that once you push through those feelings, it’s fine. You just have to keep going and keep tracking. If I ever ate something I shouldn’t have, I just tried again the next day. The app was brilliant at keeping me on track and accountable.
I’m so proud of what I achieved in such a short space of time. I managed to lose 6.7 centimeters off my waist and 4 kilograms off the scale! It’s an amazing feeling to see those results. I definitely recommend giving it a go!

I joined in June to lose a bit of weight and feel better about myself before summer, and it's been a fantastic experience. The training sessions were excellent, and having a structured workout routine made a huge difference. The food plan was easy to track and simple to follow, which made sticking to it much easier — and Joe was incredibly supportive throughout.
One of the unexpected joys was being part of a group. It was great training alongside other people, and I made some new friends along the way.
In six weeks I lost 4.8kg and 11cm off my waist. If you're thinking about it, just give it a go

Judith spotted a flyer for Joe's Challenge at the gym and brought it home; we decided to do it together. Six weeks later, Judith's down 9lbs and hit her target weight of 9 stone. Jon started at 12st 4lbs and finished at 11st 7lbs, that is 11lbs gone. Best part? It was actually fun. We're both sticking with what we learned, and we're already talking about the next one. Thanks, Joe.
Jon & Judith Chitty
As an active retiree & regular user of the One Leisure fitness. classes, I was keen to get back into meaningful gym sessions as well. At my age, I felt it was important to strengthen muscle groups & lift weights properly, alongside my aerobic training.
I was looking for someone to work with who would take into consideration my age and abilities whilst, at the same time, encourage and challenge me to progress safely and with confidence.
Working with Joe has been amazing. He is supportive, encouraging, and motivating. He carefully tailors each session to encourage me to progress, which has given me confidence.
Joe is patient at explaining exercises and equipment and makes sure I know how to do things safely.
Joe always invites me to give give feedback on any concerns I may have with my training
Nearly six weeks in, I am already feeling fitter and stronger and look forward to progressing even more.
Thanks Joe! 😊

I met Joe when I had been back at the gym for a while, I had solely stuck to the machines as I was too scared to give anything else a try. Joe has helped me to try lots of new things and now I’m not so scared to get stuck in.
I’ve just finished the 6 week challenge with Joe, and have loved the training.i signed up because I wanted to be stronger and faster. It’s been really well structured and fun. I lost weight, inches and got quicker.
Joe is really approachable and fun to work with, I would recommend highly 😁

After injuring my back and being diagnosed with osteoporosis Joe has helped me improve my exercise regime primarily in order to gain strength. Based on his experience, he has accomplished this with care and understanding of my condition. I have enjoyed working with Joe and much appreciated his professionalism.
Britt Bengtsson
I joined the 6 week challenge because I wanted to lose weight, and I found it really, really good — Joe was a great coach. Staring at yourself in the mirror is what pushed me to join in September. I lost 10cm off my waist and I'm 4.6kg down. Joe's amazing.
Ruth Allsebrooke
I just finished the 6 week challenge managed by Joe and really enjoyed the experience. The training plan was really effective and the dedicated app to track progress and maintain calorie deficit was super simple to use.
The workouts were challenging enough to push me, but fully manageable. Before starting, I mainly stuck to classes or the odd cardio without really knowing what I was doing. The technique session early in the challenge was really helpful; we went through all the different exercises and learnt how to get the most out of every movement.
I am really pleased with my results and progress. I can now confidently do strength training and gym workouts that I couldn't do before, and I will definitely continue to apply these principles moving forward.

I initially met Joe in the gym and we got chatting about doing a MOT and seeing whether he could help with any goals I had in the gym. Throughout the MOT Joe took the time to really get to know my current fitness routine and what might improve or support this. I was doing lots of running but felt I had lost confidence in the gym. We ended up developing a programme which not only strengthens my running journey but also has got me more confident with strength training and optimising my fitness sessions.
It's clear when working with Joe the knowledge he has and really supports and pushes you in sessions to make the most of your time. I had always been reluctant to use PT however Joe has completely changed my opinion and I've found the sessions really informative and valuable.

I did Joe’s free Body MOT at One Leisure Huntingdon and found it really valuable. It was great to know my numbers properly and understand that what I’m doing is working. It was also really helpful to talk to a professional like Joe to make sure I’m on track and get some useful tips and advice on how I can improve even further. Highly recommend!

Joe took me through a free body MOT at One Leisure. I found it particularly useful due to the new exercises he suggested. Also, good to know a bit more about calorie deficit and its impact to weight loss. Cheers Joe
Nick Waymont
Absolutely wonderful trainer. He helped me and motivated me to break my unhealthy routine. Pushed me to get to my best shape. His personalised plan for work out are wonderfully designed and very helping. I would recommend anybody new to gym or even somebody who doesn't know the format to get trained by him.
Thank you.
Neo Patel
Thank you.
I was looking for a personal trainer for a while. Looks like I was waiting for the best. Jo has been fantastic since we started the partnership. His training methods were tailored to my ability. He carefully analysed my needs and has worked on each aspect. He started easy to keep me engaged and feel good about my body and strength. He has stepped my training difficulty up and matched it with the demands that my job puts on my body. His pleasant demeanour and constant encouragement makes the most difficult challenges in the gym very easy to accomplish. I strongly recommend him to anyone who wants to seek his personal training services.
Best of luck Jo

Thank you Joe
I wasn’t sure if personal training was for me but I had lost focus and direction in my training and eating plan, was attending the gym 4-5 days a week with no further improvements, I was stuck…..
So I signed up with Joe and haven’t looked back.
Joe has given me the confidence to step outside of my comfort zone and to train smarter not longer, with improved results already.
The programs are interesting with good variations and the right level of challenge.
Only thing I regret………….. I didn’t do it sooner!
Thanks Joe

I needed support following a full knee replacement to strengthen my leg muscles and return to exercise having been out of action for over 12 weeks.
I contacted Joe and we have now worked together improving my muscle strength, movement and fitness,
I found Joe to be very approachable, patient and understanding of my issues. He has provided options for exercise to support my knee bend and the results are definitely there to be seen.
It is nice to return to the gym and work with Joe who has shown enthusiasm and encouragement to enable me to meet my goals.

I’d attended the gym for a number of years, pretty much doing the same routine. I got talking to Joe and he asked me what my aims were and my concern as a man of my late 60’s was to improve my flexibility and strength. Although I do not get to the gym as frequently as I would like, with Joe’s training plan I feel like I am making progress . Joe encourages me to push myself without overdoing it. Joe is teaching me good technique varying my plan on most visits. If you are looking for a great coach I would recommend you contact Joe.

After five years away from the gym, I returned during a difficult time in my life — after moving to a new country, pregnancy, and surgery. I felt constantly tired, disconnected from my body, and had lost my confidence, with no clear idea where to begin again.
I’ve been training with Joe for six weeks now, and in such a short time my confidence, strength, and balance have improved so much. He keeps me motivated and truly makes me believe in myself.
I’m so glad I started with him — I even recommended him to my husband, and now we’re both training with Joe. As a family, we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommended!

I honestly can’t recommend Joe enough. I hadn’t stepped foot in a gym for a couple of years and I was looking to build confidence and momentum and to create a 3 day a week plan. I was nervous about getting started again, but Joe made the whole process so easy. I followed his breakthrough method which I really recommend as this gave me the momentum to get back into fitness. I'm already down 2kg after a month and my clothes already fit so much better.
He really knows his stuff when it comes to fitness and nutrition, but he’s super down to earth and easygoing about it. He’s incredibly adaptable too, which I’ve appreciated. I’ve gone from doing nothing to having a solid, well-structured plan three or four days a week, and I feel so much better for it. If you’re looking to get back in shape and want someone who is great to work with I would highly recommend Joe. I'm really glad I signed up with him!

Joe's program 'The Breakthrough Method' has been fantastic. I had been doing the same routine over and over againand really needed a change up. I felt nervous about trying anything new and genuinely believed free weights were ‘not for people my age’, so I never pushed myself beyond what felt safe and familiar.
Starting this program was a bit of a leap for me, but it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Everything was explained in such a simple, reassuring way, and I never felt out of my depth. I learned how to move properly, how to lift safely, and slowly my confidence started to build. Exercises that once looked intimidating now feel completely manageable, and I actually look forward to my sessions.
The difference in how I feel day to day is huge. I’m noticeably stronger, my joints feel looser and less achy, and I’ve got more energy for everyday life. Even simple things like walking, carrying shopping, or getting up from a chair feel easier.
More than anything, I feel in control again. The gym no longer feels like a place I have to tolerate, it’s somewhere I go knowing I’m improving myself each time. I only wish I’d started sooner. Its a big thumbs up from me.

Joe is exactly what I needed. I’d been in a real rut, doing the same machines, same weights, no real progress for years. I knew I could be doing more but didn’t know where to start and didn’t want to look foolish. Joe's coaching gave me a clear plan and the confidence to move beyond the basics. I’m now doing proper strength exercises, moving better, and feel stronger and healthier than I have in a decade. It’s taken the guesswork out of training and made the gym enjoyable again. 100% recommend Joe!

I approached Joe in the gym because there were a number of exercises I wasn’t sure I could do. He was very friendly and patient. I had been using the fixed equipment for most of the time and had reached a plateau. Joe showed me a number of exercises that have yielded results in a short time. I highly recommend Joe to anyone that feels they need some guidance to improve their fitness.

Returning to the gym after two years of being completely inactive was a big step for me. At first, I was just trying to get back into a routine, but I quickly became bored with my usual workouts. That’s when I decided to start working with a personal trainer — and starting PT sessions with Joe six weeks ago is honestly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Joe is incredibly knowledgeable, highly skilled, and always keeps things fresh and challenging. No two sessions are ever the same, which keeps training exciting and motivating. He really listens to your goals and tailors every workout to help you achieve them, while still pushing you to become the best version of yourself.
What I appreciate most is how motivating he is. Every session feels valuable and worthwhile, and I always leave feeling accomplished and excited for the next one. Joe strikes the perfect balance between encouragement and challenge, making sure you stay focused and keep progressing.
Thanks to Joe, I’ve achieved goals I didn’t think were possible. I’ve learned so much during our sessions, and he’s given me the confidence and knowledge to train effectively on my own as well.
If you’re looking for a motivating, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive personal trainer, I can’t recommend Joe enough!

I approached Joe to help me rebuild my confidence in the gym and help me develop a strength program for triathlon.
Joe has exceeded all expectations. I feel confident, stronger and I'm learning a lot from him. His programs are carefully crafted and goal focused. A training session with Joe is also fun and engaging which makes the time fly by.
I would highly recommend Joe to anyone!!

I’m abit anxious in the gym and still rely on Joe a lot, but he’s honestly been great. He’s patient, supportive, and never makes me feel stupid for needing reassurance (which I do… a lot). He gently pushes me when I can handle it and helps me build confidence without pressure. I feel safe, supported, and way more comfortable than when I started. Would definitely recommend, especially if the gym makes you nervous.

Great PT coach. I recommend to use Joe. He’s will push you to your absolute best. He made sure he prioritised my workouts for boxing. Over 4weeks with sticking to my program, I noticed my stamina, speed and power and all progress. If you’re looking for a reliable, motivating coach, Joe is the right guy for the job

I've really enjoyed working with Joe. He has really listened to my needs. I've been impressed with his knowledge on assisting people with Arthritis, which is my case, and I can already feel some improvement in strength and movement, even though I've only been following my carefully constructed program for a little while.
Joe has a way of making you feel totally comfortable, whilst also pushing you to perform your best. I'm looking forward to continuing working with him in the future and would recommend him as a great PT.

After major surgery I contacted Joe at one leisure Huntingdon to help me get my strength back. What can I say, absolutely over the moon. In just 3 weeks im stronger, more stable and starting to lift heavier, my confidence in the gym has increased 10 fold. I would highly recommend and I cant wait to continue my journey with Joe.

Game-changing PT — the best decision I’ve made since joining the gym.
I’ve worked with personal trainers before, but Joe is on a completely different level. From the very first session, his confidence, clarity, and communication stood out. He explains things in a way that instantly makes you feel capable, and his coaching style is that rare mix of highly professional and genuinely encouraging.
In just a few weeks, I’m lifting with better technique, moving more athletically, and actually understanding why I’m doing each exercise. Joe doesn’t just give you a workout, he teaches you how to train properly. Every session feels personalised, thoughtful, and focused on long-term results, not quick fixes.
If you’re looking for a PT who truly knows their craft, listens, pushes you at the right times, and makes you feel supported every step of the way, Joe is the one. Massive recommendation from me. This is the kind of coaching that actually changes things.
