FAQs
Answers to the questions I get asked most often.
Not even slightly. Most of my clients start from scratch or come back after years off. We begin exactly where you are and build from there, at your pace.
It's my private, fully kitted-out Coach Studio in Loughborough: brick-built, with high ceilings, giant glass sliding doors, its own bathroom, big LED mirrors, and heating and air con. It's just you and me, your playlist on, and all the space you need to grow in confidence.
No. No banned foods, no salad and sadness. If you choose a plan with nutrition, you'll get clear calorie and protein targets built around the food you already eat and enjoy.
No. Building lots of muscle takes years of very deliberate effort, it doesn't happen by accident. Lifting will make you stronger, more toned and more confident, and it's one of the best things you can do for your body.
Honestly, it's the thing I hear most, and I've been there too. That's exactly why the studio exists: you can learn every move in private first. If you've already got a gym membership, the Gym Confidence Series teaches you your workouts in the studio, so you walk into your gym knowing exactly what to do.
Want hands-on coaching in private? Studio Personal Training. Got a gym but lack the confidence? The Gym Confidence Series. Want to train on your own time? A bespoke plan, or the Starter Plan to try me out. Still not sure? Get in touch and we'll work it out together.
Plans and the Gym Confidence Series can be bought securely online straight from the Ways to Train page. For studio sessions, get in touch or book a free visit first, then we'll find your regular slot. Session packs are paid up front.
Life with kids happens, I get it. Just give me 24 hours' notice and we'll rebook. Cancellations with less notice count as a session.
I'm a Level 3 qualified personal trainer, and I'm always learning, especially in strength and conditioning and nutrition coaching. The fitness industry is full of outdated advice, so I make sure what I give you is evidence-based and actually works.
