I came to Marcus with a specific goal in mind: to drop body fat, build lean muscle mass, and improve my overall strength, tone, and cardio fitness. From the start, Marcus designed a well-structured programme tailored to these goals. It combined weight training and cardio exercises with clear guidance on diet and macronutrients including how much carbohydrates, fats, and protein I should be consuming. This combination proved extremely effective. Since starting the programme, my lean muscle mass has increased by 2kg and my body fat has dropped by 2kg, in 24 sessions which I’m very pleased with.
Marcus’s approach is excellent. Every workout is purposeful and structured to drive results rather than just doing exercises for the sake of it. He’s also a perfectionist when it comes to technique making sure each movement is performed correctly. His philosophy that “less is more” really works, focusing on quality rather than unnecessary volume.
I’ve been going to the gym for over 20 years, yet I still learned how to perform several exercises properly thanks to Marcus’s coaching. That alone speaks volumes about his expertise and attention to detail.
I would highly recommend Marcus to anyone serious about achieving their fitness goals. I’m now working with him on my next goal, which I’m very excited about.

Marcus is honestly the best PT that has trained me, I had a goal to get in to shape for my wedding and the expectations were beyond met. Very impressive results and very lovely guy. Cannot recommend enough!

I've just completed a series of PT sessions with Marcus. He is good company, gently encouraging and efficient in listening and creating a suitable dynamic workout. He is professional, competent and safe - paying close attention to technique. I'll definitely be booking him again!

I engaged Marcus to help me achieve a goal with my fitness within a specific timeframe for work-related reasons and I can’t recommend him highly enough; he was a friendly and warm presence to work with and is clearly a knowledgeable and thorough person in his field., if you’re put off by the idea of getting potentially screamed at by a macho meathead then Marcus is the perfect antidote; patient and calm, always mindful of individual circumstances around injury etc. A great training experience whether you’re entirely new to the gym/training or looking to take your training to the next level, just fantastic

I started personal training with Marcus in January, and I can already say he is an incredible trainer! My goal is to build strength and focus on resistance training, and Marcus has been creating a structured plan to help me achieve this. His attention to form is exceptional—he ensures every movement is performed correctly, which has been crucial for my progress. Since I have joint issues, particularly with my knees, he takes the time to understand my limitations and tailors workouts to suit my needs while still keeping them challenging. He also has a fantastic way of pushing you just the right amount in a friendly and motivating way. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and inspiring trainer who genuinely cares about your progress, I highly recommend Marcus!

I've been training with Marcus for over a year, and he is an exceptional personal trainer. We've done a mix of circuits, HIIT classes, and more recently, personal training sessions.

Marcus keeps the workouts varied and engaging, so I never get bored and always feel challenged. He has an incredible sense of how hard to push me and knows exactly how much weight I can handle—often more than I think I can!

Our sessions have included a wide range of activities: weightlifting in the gym, cardio in the studio, boxing, cycling, and effective abdominal exercises. The variety is fantastic, and I've used equipment I never would have considered on my own.

Marcus's expertise and motivational approach have made a significant difference in my fitness journey. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable personal trainer.

I met Marcus at Forest Hill Pools: he is a helpful and friendly instructor who motivates and encourages improvement in your body and mental attitude. I highly recommend Marcus for the over 50a groups - I am 71 and still aiming high!
