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.

About Me

Hello, I’m Alex, I’ve been involved in a variety of sports, including swimming, running, boxing, gymnastics, rugby and calisthenics from a very early age, and have worked in the sports industry for over a decade. I have been a personal trainer for over 5 years and have supported many clients on their fitness journey.

As a PT it is my dream and ambition to help as many people as I can to get fitter both physically and mentally and helping them improve their lives for the better.

I primarily focus on body weight and functional training but am fully qualified and experienced to offer a wide range of programming needs to help you reach your goals with a very friendly and motivational approach.

If you see me in the gym, feel free to come and say hello and ask any questions.

Gemma Milne

I’m Gemma! I’ve been in the fitness industry for over 7 years now through many different career path’s.

I strive in helping my client’s find realistic results without cutting out the things they love! I personally have been that girl anxious about finding her feet in the gym and I’d love to be able to help you find your confidence within the gym environment.

I consider myself a hybrid style gym goer / coach meaning I’m not a lover of just one thing, I enjoy weightlifting, running, & functional style fitness! In my personal development I’ve completed 10k’s, half marathon’s, a full marathon and have recently found a new love of hyrox competing!

My aim is to make sessions fun, enjoyable & rewarding! Change doesn’t happen overnight but with the correct tools, consistency & commitment we can smash it together!

Piotr Moj

I am a personal trainer dedicated to helping others experience the benefits of exercise and a healthy lifestyle while still enjoying it. As someone who was very overweight and taken that first step into better health and exercise in the past, I know how intimidating it can be. Exercise doesn’t have to be intimidating and unenjoyable, and a healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to mean that you will never be able to see your favorite chocolate bar again. I can guide you to a healthier and more fulfilling lifestyle with results that align with your goals.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in sport and exercise science
  • CIMSPA accredited member as a personal trainer practitioner
  • HND in fitness, health and exercise
  • Level 3 extended diploma in sports massage
  • NPA in Exercise and fitness

Mark Aitken

I love sport and fitness and it has been an important part of my life. I have played lots of different sports, although, I have mainly played football, but I have most recently taken up running which I am really enjoying. I have 5+ years of experience using the gym and incorporating various methods of training to gain fitness, strength, muscle and improve sporting performance, which has provided me with the knowledge and experience to be able to help people achieve their goals.

In my short time as a personal trainer I have mainly worked with members who are new to the gym and have helped them achieve their goals whether that be weight loss, getting fitter or gaining strength/muscle. I have also helped them more importantly gain confidence within the gym environment, using a variety of equipment and not being fazed to use the gym independently.

Through university I have gained knowledge on Strength and Conditioning methods, rehabilitation for people with disabilities. Furthering my capacity to help clients achieve their goals, whatever they may be.
