👋 Hi, I’m Ross – Personal Trainer
From an early age I struggled with unhealthy eating habits. Although I was always active, it eventually caught up with me and I reached my heaviest weight of 22 stone. I was terrified to take my top off because I didn’t want anyone to see my “man boobs.”
One day I decided enough was enough. I started eating better, moving more, and making steady progress. Exercise and nutrition completely changed my life — and I believe they should make your life better too.
🔑 What makes me different?
I’ve lived it. I know the struggle, the pain, and the discomfort of being unhappy in your own body. I also know the pride and confidence that comes with change.
That journey means I can truly relate to you — and help you through the same challenges. My experience is priceless and makes me unique as a Personal Trainer.

Can fully recommend Ross, what a great PT and a great person, excellent trainer and knows absolutely everything and exactly what exercise to do for the precise muscle group, really gets you on the go and will get you to hit your goals, had a great time with Ross as a PT 💪

I can thoroughly recommend Ross as a personal trainer. His 'story' is why I chose Ross. He genuinely understands the struggles and hard work needed in making changes to achieve a healthier and fitter life style.
Ross is extremely knowledgeable and approachable.
Ross has certainly played a major role in my fitness journey.
I'm a 64 year old grandmother, having personal training with Ross has given me the confidence to use the gym, knowing how to execute all workouts correctly, and feeling comfortable in the gym environment.
Thank you so much Ross, you are a wonderful person, expert personal trainer, and a dear friend.

Currently under Ross’ training plan/guidance and have just gone over a stone loss in 6 months. Absolute best pt around with his knowledge & relatability and would highly recommend

Just want to give a massive shoutout to my PT, Ross 🙌
I’ve been training with him for over a year now, and honestly, it’s been one of the best things I’ve done for myself. I started out wanting to lose some weight, get fitter, and build strength — especially to help stay ahead of a family history of osteoporosis — but it’s turned into so much more.
My mental health has improved massively, I feel stronger than ever (physically and mentally), and I actually enjoy working out now — which I never thought I’d say!
Ross has this amazing way of motivating you without ever being pushy. He knows his stuff, has loads of experience, and somehow always gets the best out of me, even on days when I’m not feeling it.
If you’re thinking about getting a PT — or just want someone in your corner who actually cares — I seriously can’t recommend Ross enough 💪

Ross has been absolutely brilliant, with his support I have gained the confidence in using the gym between sessions. I feel fitter and getting into shape has certainly made a difference.

Ross is fantastic 👌 makes even the scariest pieces of equipment in the gym a breeze to use afterwards. He puts you at ease after just one session with him. Not scared to lift weights anymore 💪
Amy Cook
I had PT sessions with Ross prior to pregnant and he was amazing. Really kind and supportive but equally motivated me to see what I was capable of. Highly recommended 😊
Emily Price
Ross showed what to do properly I lost lots of weight with Ross. He showed me how things work he was very patient and pushed you till he couldn’t push you anymore. Excellent pt would definitely use again if needed. Not only does Ross show you how to do things properly he will always be in your head when cooking eating or working out that’s how good he is
Stephanie Smith
Ross is an excellent trainer and a great guy. I was really out of shape after a career of sitting on my backside at a desk, but have got much stronger and made clearly visible progress since starting regular gym sessions with him, wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

If you’re looking for a professional and reliable personal trainer then Ross is your man! His experience and knowledge is second to none! I was so nervous when I first started training as I’d never done weights before but he quickly made me feel at ease and now I love it 😀 I’ve learnt so much from Ross and even dropped a dress size! Would highly recommend 👍🏻
Carly Morgan
Having a few PT sessions with Ross was one of the best decisions I’d made - Learning proper form, how to use the weights effectively, building confidence (which is a big thing for most people walking into the gym for the first time) and realising I could actually enjoy training and make it a part of my daily life.
These sessions gave me the foundation — the knowledge, motivation, and confidence — to keep going.
3 years on and I’m still using Ross’s training plan!
