At the age of 30, I experienced a slipped disc, which led to the development of unhealthy eating habits and a mindset that I was incapable of physical activity, as I feared exacerbating my back condition. During this period, I was seeing my osteopath on a weekly basis.

Not long after, we had the addition of my daughter to our family, and it was only when I found it increasingly difficult to lift her for more than five minutes that I realised I could not continue living this way.

This prompted me to begin working with James. Since then, I have gained valuable knowledge regarding nutrition, exercise, and overall healthy living. Under James’ expert guidance, I have successfully lost 12kgs within eight months.

Since I started my training, I have not needed to see my osteopath, which I consider a significant achievement in itself. I now have much greater confidence in myself, and my back is stronger than ever before.

I wholeheartedly encourage anyone who wishes to improve their physical well-being to book in with James - you won’t regret it.

This is only the beginning of my journey!

The nature of my work makes it easy to develop unhealthy habits, which lead me over time to significant weight gain.

Since working with James not only has he taught me how to train and build muscle but he has also provided education around diet and smart life choices to achieve the goals I want.

I have lost 26 kg and completely transformed my body which I could not have done without his support.

James has not only made me enjoy going to the gym, but he has also pushed me to do things I wouldn't have done by myself.

I could not recommend James enough to anyone looking for a PT, it's the best investment I've made.

When James & I were first introduced to one another back in April of last year, I was at my heaviest of over 100kgs, feeling very lethargic and just unhappy within myself and the way I looked.

Within our first conversation we decided to concentrate on my diet and eating habits, this would allow me to lose body fat whilst gaining muscle simultaneously. James presented me a diet and gym plan tailored exactly to what we both agreed were areas for prioritising.

Fast forward to now and the results are unimaginable, having lost just over 30kgs and gaining a vast amount of muscle mass, I can safely say I’m in the shape of my life.

Along this journey I felt confident enough to enter the London Landmarks Half Marathon, not only did i want to complete it, I wanted to beat James’ time in the process, unfortunately i missed out by just 16 seconds, but beat my initial goal of completing it in under 2 hours.

James’ support has been unwavering throughout our training so far and there is no one else I would have rather shared my journey with

126kg ➡️ 100kg.

I started this journey in February 2023 with little-to-no knowledge of the gym and I’m so happy and proud of what I’ve achieved and the strength I’ve built in the last year!

It was very daunting starting in a new gym as a beginner and being the heaviest I’ve ever been but a massive thank you to James for supporting me through the journey and taking it week by week and kilogram by kilogram!

If anyone is a wanting to make a change in their life but is unsure of how and where to start then reach out to James, I couldn’t recommend him enough!

I first contacted James in early May as I wanted to lose a stone. I still had a reasonable level of fitness, running 10K's and half marathons but my times had suffered, as weight had crept on over about 3 years.

We started in mid May with two sessions a week and things began to change immediately. It has been far more that just PT sessions and the added value from understanding my diet, calorie management and how subtle changes like walking instead of driving can make a huge difference.

Since May I have lost over 3 stone, am in the best shape I have ever been I'm enjoying my running again, where its not such hard work and my times are the best they have been for over 5 years.

One of my funniest memories is of James handing me two 10kg weights and saying "of course your times are better, you were basically running carrying these before".

James' style is friendly, the information is clear and the emphasis is on learning and understanding. It also helps that James is a thoroughly nice guy.
