Sustainable Results
1-to-1 Personal Training Sessions
You don’t need another random workout plan. You need a 1-to-1 personal training plan built around you — your body, your schedule, your goals, and the stuff that normally derails you (busy weeks, low energy, confidence dips, “I’ll start Monday” syndrome).
With 1-2-1 personal training, you get focused coaching, proper technique, a structured plan, and the accountability that turns good intentions into real results — without living in the gym.
If you want to feel stronger, look more toned, move better, and feel confident in your own skin, you’re in the right place.
From £35 per session
Who Is 1-to-1 Personal Training For?
This is for you if you:
- Want to lose body fat and feel leaner (without doing endless cardio)
- Want to tone up and build shape in your legs, glutes, arms, and core
- Feel nervous using the weights area and want confidence + guidance
- Are “busy but serious” and want training that’s efficient
- Have tried to start before, but struggle with consistency
- Want to feel strong, capable, and proud of what your body can do
Whether you’re a total beginner or getting back into training after a break, sessions are designed to meet you where you are — and move you forward.

What You’ll Do In Sessions
Your 1-to-1 personal training sessions will typically include:
- Warm-up + mobility (so your body moves properly)
- Strength training (machines + free weights, depending on confidence/ability)
- Core and stability work (to support your lifting and daily life)
- Conditioning (optional and targeted — not just “suffer for calories”)
- Cool-down + stretches (because your recovery matters)
Everything is coached, adjusted, and progressed so you keep improving safely.

New Year, New Me? 10 Reasons Why It Never Works (And What Actually Does)
Every January, gyms get packed, salad sales spike, and half the world suddenly becomes a “morning person.” Then… February hits like a wet towel. Motivation disappears, routines collapse, and “New Year, New Me” quietly turns into “Same Me, But With Guilt.
8 Ways to Dodge the Guilt Trap This Christmas
You’re allowed to enjoy December. You can have mince pies and momentum. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s keeping a gentle roll so January doesn’t feel like climbing Everest in flip-flops.
Think “high floor, low pressure”: a couple of short workouts, a solid step count most days, and decent sleep when you can.
Cardio vs Weights: What’s Best for Women’s Fat Loss?
If your goal is fat loss, you’ve probably wondered which works better: cardio or weights.
Many women believe endless cardio is the key to burning fat — but that’s only part of the picture. The truth is, both cardio and strength training have their place, but one is far more powerful for shaping your body, boosting metabolism, and keeping the weight off long-term.
As a personal trainer, I see women wasting hours on the treadmill when they could be getting faster, stronger, and leaner results in less time. Let’s break it down.
Creatine Benefits: How Much You Need, Why and Myth Busting
Creatine is one of the most researched, safe, and effective supplements for strength, power, and lean mass. Most people do great on 3–5 g of creatine monohydrate per day. Loading is optional. Powder beats gummies for cost and dose.
Beyond the gym, creatine may support cognition, energy, and healthy ageing.
8 Nutrition Tips for Busy Women | Healthy Eating for Results
Let’s be clear: I hate the phrase “cheat day.” It suggests you’ve done something wrong by enjoying food. This picture is me, smashing the best French Toast in the world whilst in Las Vegas!
In reality, balance is key. No single meal or day ruins your progress — it’s the long-term habits that matter.
Life is busy. Between work, family, and everything else on your to-do list, it’s no surprise that nutrition often takes a back seat. Many women end up grabbing quick snacks, skipping meals, or relying on takeaways then feel frustrated when they don’t see results.
The good news? With a few simple strategies, you can fuel your body, save time, and stay on track with your goals — without spending hours in the kitchen or feeling guilty about what you eat.
Here are my top nutrition tips for busy women who want real results.
Strong Not Skinny: Why Women Should Train for Confidence
Strong Not Skinny
For decades, women have been told that the ultimate goal is to be smaller. From fad diets to endless cardio, the fitness industry pushed the idea that “skinny” equals success.
But here’s the truth: strong is the new standard. Training for strength, energy, and confidence does far more for your body (and mind) than obsessing over the number on the scales.
As a personal trainer, I help women shift their focus away from weight loss and towards building strength, resilience, and self-belief. And that’s where true body confidence begins.
