About
I’ve experienced both sides of the journey, from being skinny to being overweight, so I understand how challenging changing your body can be.
Fitness became something powerful in my life during a time when a lot felt out of my control, and taking charge of my health changed everything. That experience inspired me to help others feel stronger, healthier, and more
confident in themselves.
My coaching style is calm, supportive, and structured. I believe lasting results come from more than just training hard. They come from building better habits, staying consistent, fuelling your body properly, and recovering well. I support clients not only with training, but also with guidance around nutrition, recovery, and accountability.
I specialise in sustainable fat loss, body recomposition, muscle toning, and full-body conditioning, with a strong focus on technique and strength development. Every programme I create is tailored to the individual, using a science-based approach to make each session effective and purposeful.
Whether you’re new to the gym, feeling stuck, or ready to push on to the next level, I’m here to help you get there.

Salvador has been incredible! Always knows how to challenge me just enough before it’s too much. Strength has improved massively since starting with him. Doing things I haven’t been able to do in ages!
Mitchel
Really enjoyed the session with Salvador, he was patient with me when I had some difficulty, gave me really good advice, helped me to learn different types of workouts and see what fit best with me. He taught me a lot about different muscles, what muscles different workouts focus on and taught me effective warmups that helped me feel ready for my set.
Ensar
Salvador was super helpful and patient, I'd never set foot in a gym before but he really helped me feel at ease and has set me up perfectly with a routine and tips. Even after just a few sessions I feel way more confident and am already starting to notice some improvement!
Cyrus
Really great sessions with Salvador, he gave me really good feedback and guidance on my form. He was really patient and explained cues clearly and in depth. would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a PT!
Salma
Great coach and an even better person. He really cares about your progress and always pushes you to be your best. I’ve improved a lot thanks to him and actually enjoy every session. His way of teaching, correcting, and encouraging makes every training session worthwhile. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to improve and reach their goals. Thank you for everything! Salvador!!!

I had a great session with Salvador as I wanted to know how to use most of the equipment in the gym , Salvador took his time to train and update me for an hour . Afterwards we spoke about what my goals and needs are and if I ever needed a personal trainer I could contact him
Salvador has a friendly personality and calmness . I have my own personal goals to meet but if ever I need help I will book more one to one sessions with him 👍🏿

I requested a full body training session and found Salvador to be calm, knowledgable and considerate. He helped rid me of a preconception I had about not training chest as a woman, then expertly lead me through exercises I could add to my routine. He constantly checked in with how I felt about weights and exercises, which was appreciated. I did not have much experience in training my core and after communicating this to Salvador, he made the effort to show me exercises that I will be comfortable with doing. I thoroughly enjoyed my session and would recommend his PT services to others.

This young man helped me tremendously with learning how to best improve my mobility and overall fitness and health. He remained observant and focused throughout the session, but still took in my issues and allowed me time to work at my own pace. I will be coming back for a second session.

Salvador is lovely, genuinely friendly and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience feel relaxed from the start. At the same time, he’s clearly exceptionally professional, he paid close attention to my form, explained things properly, and made sure everything was tailored to me and my experiences. He strikes a great balance between being encouraging and actually pushing you to do things properly. Even from just my first session, I felt confident I was in good hands and would definitely recommend him to anyone, new or experienced at the gym.
George CP
He really helped build my confidence lifting heavier and improving my form!
Meredith Applegate
Thank you for a great pt session! I requested to train full body and Salvador led me through various exercises ensuring that I was pushing myself and keeping good form. Definitely was helpful to learn how to implement different exercises into my routine.
Allison
I had a great one to one personal training session with Salvador and can't recommend him highly enough. He introduced me to new exercises that pushed me and carefully explained their benefit. By the end of the seesion i felt inspired, better informed and the most physically knackered i've been in a long while - but in a good way!
Tom Cuckson
Great first session! 💪 Really professional, supportive and easy to work with. Made me feel comfortable while still pushing me to do my best.
Runi Begum
I had a one-to-one training session with Salvador this week and he made he feel at ease right from the start. He's genuinely interested in his clients goals and how he can help them get there, and I was extremely impressed with his overall knowledge of fitness.
Fitz Shillingford
I had a great session with Salvador! He tailored the workout to suit my goals, such as becoming more comfortable using the machines. He was kind, patient, and really took the time to explain proper form and machine set up. I would definitely recommend training with him!
Sophie
Salvador is an excellent trainer who kept the session motivating and result driven. Highly recommend for anyone serious about fitness.

I’ve worked with a lot of coaches over the years as an ex-athlete, but this experience has been on a completely different level. Salvador’s work ethic is unmatched—he shows up every session prepared, focused, and fully invested in your progress. You can tell immediately that this isn’t just a job for him; it’s something he genuinely takes pride in.
What really sets him apart is his knowledge. Whether it’s programming, form correction, or understanding how to break through plateaus, he always has an answer—and more importantly, a strategy that actually works. As someone transitioning into powerlifting, I had been stuck for almost two years with little progress. I knew what I was doing wasn’t working, but I didn’t know how to fix it.
That’s where he changed everything.
He took the time to assess where I was, identify my weaknesses, and build a plan tailored specifically to me—not some generic program. He refined my technique, introduced smarter training methods, and pushed me in a way that was both challenging and sustainable. Within a short time, I started seeing progress again—strength increases, better confidence under the bar, and a renewed sense of motivation.
His commitment to his clients is real. He pays attention to the details, holds you accountable, and genuinely cares about your success. If you’re serious about your goals and tired of spinning your wheels, this is the coach you want in your corner.

Really enjoyed my session. Salvador was friendly, motivating, and made sure I was using the correct form throughout. The workout was challenging but still manageable. I also liked how the session was tailored to my fitness level and goals.
Denise
Great session with Salvador. Calm, supportive, and knowledgeable. He introduced new strength exercises, improved my form, and pushed me when I needed it. Left feeling really good and stronger than I expected.
Suzy
Super lovely guy. He’s very good at adapting exercises for the individual and knowing how best to motivate and push you. He gave me the confidence to add machines, I’d previously been scared to touch, into my weekly routine.
Charlotte
Salvador has a lot of knowledge and it's very easy to recognize he's passionate about fitness. He really helped me figure why I was not reaching my goals in the time frame I wanted to and got me on the right path. The progress I have seen since working with him has been immense. He keeps motivated, on track, and disciplined all while also keeping it fun. Never thought I would get a personal trainer but after working with him I'm glad I did.
Kaleel Glover
Salvador is a true gent and an exceptional coach! He takes the time to explain each exercise in detail ensuring your form is spot on, and shares plenty of valuable tips to help you improve. Highly recommend!
Tommy Farrow
Salvador was very helpful in putting me on the right course for my goals and giving me advice regarding programming and strength
Sonny
I had an assessment and an amazing session with Salvador. He got aware that I have a severe hip injury during my assessment and he made some research to organise my session around it. He also understood that I’m the kind of gym goer which needs to be stopped rather than pushed. So he also took this into account to protect my hip and recovery. We had a great warm up which included rehab exercises for my hip, core strengthening to support my recovery. I am an avid gym attendees and doing a body recomposition so I had specifics for my training: working the long head of my triceps, my pectoral muscles and Salvador gave me great exercises to lean down as I want to. I felt the burn! I started the session ‘miserable’ because of my injury and at the end of it, I was pumped and my motivation high. Salvador gave me great advice about my weight loss, my recomposition, my rehab and supplements. He was warm and professional. The session was a lot of fun and will keep my morale high for a while!

Had a great session with Salvador, he displays great experience and knowledge regarding fitness training . He clearly demonstrated, explained and assisted me through exercises I was new to. As well as this he is very friendly and calm to be around.
Constantino
The session I had with Salvador was extremely positive. He introduced me to several new exercise routines, and provided a lot of helpful insights which have better aligned me to be able to achieve my personal goals. Would highly recommend Salvador to anyone looking for one to one assistance on their fitness journey.

Excellent session with Salvador! He was able to suggest some warm-up and corrective exercises for my shoulder which have really been beneficial and, 2 weeks in, I can feel great improvement.
Patient and knowledgeable, he's really a valuable aid to achieve any gym-goer goal.

I really enjoyed my session with Salvador! I’m a beginner at the gym and he made me feel very supported and motivated, adjusting the exercises in response to how I was feeling at the time. I now look forward to my next workout (no mean feat) - and would absolutely recommend to gym newbies and more advanced gym-goers alike.
Scarlett
My wife and I had an introductory session with Salvador. We found him to be focused, calm and kind. He didn’t rush into activities but helped us ponder on what was best for us.
Julio
Amazing session! The trainer really knows his stuff. He helped me focus on proper isolation exercises for my triceps, which made a huge difference in how I feel the muscle working. His advice was clear, tailored to my goals, and very attentive throughout. I left the session feeling more confident in my technique. Highly recommend!

I had a great session with Salvador - he spent some time helping me drill down into what I actually wanted from the gym, before going through a session.
Top session from warm-up to cool down. He helped me out with clear technical tips with the individual sets, helped me try some new exercises, and gave me some approaches to progress in the future. Motivational and also a nice guy so it was enjoyable - thoroughly recommend!

Thoroughly enjoy the sessions. Salvador reads me very astutely, challenges me and gives me things that I will use for the rest of my gym going life. Not easy to do.
We cover the physical, obviously, but the mental side of fitness is given equal billing. Keep up the great work. You are giving people life and strength and confidence, that’s a pretty amazing gift!
