Lauren McDowell

My goal is to help build confidence on the gym floor and create ripples of positivity into the daily lives of my clients. The gym floor can be an intimidating place, even if you’re not brand new to exercise. I can help you create a ‘toolbox’ of knowledge, from the basics of safety and etiquette, to feeling strong and confident with any piece of equipment in any gym.

 

Whether your goals are to get fit, lose weight, build strength or prepare for an important event – I will help guide you towards the most confident version of yourself.

Mark Wallace

Since 2010 I have been lucky to help some amazing people work towards their goals.

there’s nothing more important to me than helping someone go through an experience that makes them feel happy, confident and strong. I’ve worked with people from all walks of life over the years and the typical goals I hear all the time are;

  • I just want to be a little fitter, maybe lose a little weight
  • I’d like to improve my confidence
  • I want to be able to play with my grandkids and not get too out of puff
  • I have a few aches and pains that are preventing me from living my life to the fullest

Does this sound like you?

If so then drop me a line to arrange your free consultation.

  • Increase in Confidence
  • Decrease in anxiety and depression
  • Improved memory and brain function

First Aid Qualified

 

I work with the public and racquet athletes. I’ve been qualified as a personal trainer since 2014. I’ve played squash at a regional level since I was young but my focus now is coaching people in personal training and athletes in strength and conditioning.  I’ve worked with a previous Scottish women’s premier league team, club level youth swimmers, University badminton and youth tennis players. I focus on posture analysis during training and being specific to the client goals. I assess technique first before we delve deeply into progressive overload.
