Fat Loss
Our fat loss programmes combine tailored resistance training, cardiovascular exercises, and nutritional guidance to create sustainable calorie deficits. We prioritise metabolic health and muscle retention while addressing individual dietary habits and lifestyle factors. Clients receive ongoing support to adapt routines as they progress towards their goals.
Muscle Building
Hypertrophy-focused sessions use progressive overload principles with customised rep ranges and recovery periods. We integrate protein intake optimisation and sleep hygiene advice to maximise muscle growth. Regular assessments ensure training intensity matches individual capacity for safe, effective size gains.
Back Pain Rehabilitation
Specialised programmes target core stability and postural alignment to alleviate chronic back discomfort. We employ low-impact mobility drills, stabilisation exercises, and ergonomic advice. Progress is monitored through functional movement assessments to ensure pain reduction without compromising mobility.
Sports Conditioning
Performance programmes enhance sport-specific attributes like power, agility, and endurance. We analyse movement patterns to address imbalances and incorporate plyometrics, speed drills, and sport-mimicking exercises. Recovery strategies and injury prevention techniques form integral components of each plan.
Training Over 60s
Gentle yet effective sessions improve balance, joint mobility, and functional strength for older adults. We incorporate fall prevention exercises, low-impact cardio, and resistance training using bodyweight and light equipment. Programmes adapt to changing health needs while maintaining cognitive engagement through varied routines.

Report
I’ve suffered from a lower back pain for over a year and within that time regularly attended appointments with a chiropractor as I was hoping this will help. However, this was only a temporary solution and the pain wasn’t improving. Finally, I decided to approach the problem differently and seek help from a personal trainer. I wanted to strengthen my core, address any muscular imbalances and get stronger. I was very lucky to find Kasia as she turned out to be a perfect matchfor me! She not only has the knowledge and expertise but is also a good motivator and genuinely wants to help

I have been training with Peter for an hour each week for the past 5 years at his efficient and comfortable gym in Westbourne. With his guidance and skill I have substantially increased my core strength and flexibility allowing me to participate in the sporting activities that I so enjoy. We often concentrate on exercises specifically for skiing, fishing and golf and his help and enthusiasm are instrumental in the enjoyment of my retirement.

Peter's a great personal trainer. I've had a number of sessions with him over the last few years and I can testify to his keen eye and understanding of what's going on with my body and where I need to work. He's great fun to work with, and can be relied on to push me just beyond where I think I can go, which really worked for me. The gym is brilliantly equipped, and just generally a pleasant spacious environment in which to work. Highly recommended.

Kasia is the best personal trainer I have ever had. She tailors the workouts to what you need in my case to avoid injuries and improve my strength to play better tennis which has really worked and a bonus is improved muscle definition with stronger abs and glutes. She makes every work out varied so its never boring and you always feel you learn something and are challenged. The studio is great too large and bright with all the best equipment.
