Personal Training in Leeds

We combine exercise and nutrition as well as lifestyle coaching to achieve the best results with our clients, who range from sports men and women to those of you looking to improve your general health and wellness.

Personal training is probably not the best word to describe the service that you will receive from us. We are performance enhancement specialists combining the principles of athletic development and periodisation with functional exercise, nutrition and lifestyle coaching in order to achieve long term results for our clients.

We specialise in:

1. Physique transformation including rapid fat loss and muscle gain

2. Sports performance enhancement

3. General health improvement through our holistic approach

4. Injury rehabilitation through exercise therapy

Irrespective of which of these goals fits your requirements most accurately, our service includes nutrition, lifestyle coaching, goal setting, as well as of course training and exercise.

Why is it important to include ALL the above components in your performance enhancement programme?

Exercise makes up only 1 or perhaps 2 hours in every day. Whilst you may have the best programme in the world there is another 23 hours in the day to get things wrong. Your lifestyle is the major limiting factor in your quest to change your physique, improve your sports performance, increase your business productivity or whatever else you are looking to do with your life. Our programme focusses on lifestyle change in a big way.

In line with this your nutritional habits are a huge influence over your lifestyle and exercise results. We coach you progressively to improve your nutrition by going through our phases of development programme.

These factors along with our obvious expertise in exercise coaching and programming mean that you will achieve the results you are looking for.

Don’t take our word for it though, here are some testimonials from our personal training clients:

“Since I began training with Brendan nearly 2 years ago I’ve seen massive improvements in my strength, my athletic conditioning, my general health and my physique. I was no athlete, but I enjoyed a couple of games of squash and football a week but I kept picking up injuries; it seemed like every week I’d have a sprain, a knock or a pull of some kind. These days I feel bullet proof. All the mobility work and fundamental strength Brendan’s program has given me, especially in my legs and core, means it takes something serious to put me out of action now.

When Brendan started my program it was after a chronic back issue that had laid me up for nearly 3 months. His course of rehabilitation, and core strength building helped me get mobile again and I’m positive his ongoing training is constantly preventing my back problems from flaring up.

When I look at photos of myself before I started training with Brendan I feel like a different person. Brendan’s program helped me lose a lot of weight, but the biggest impact is all the fat I’ve burnt and muscle I’ve built.

Brendan’s sessions aren’t just about seeing results, they’re seriously addictive too. Week by week you can challenge yourself to train harder, get that extra rep or add another 10kg to you max lift. But whatever it is, you’ll keep coming back for more.”

Nathan Smith, Web Developer and Trailsbike Competitor!

“Since training with Brendan I have experienced not just a ruthless stripping of fat and the development of visible and useful muscle, but also the drive to continually improve. Within a very short time the instruction Brendan provides has translated into a new-found confidence to push my own boundaries and a greater appreciation for the human body as the machine it can be.

His work comes highly recommended, with a superb level of satisfaction.”

Andrew Cameron, Computer Programmer

Staying on track to achieve results

Your goals will be tracked and regularly monitored to the level that our elite athletes receive. Our experience working with athletic populations as well as highly driven general population clients, combined with the holistic approach of combining exercise, nutrition and lifestyle management makes our service truly unique.

However, we only work with a limited number of highly motivated individuals in order to keep the quality of our service exceptionally high. This is a key component of our service. There is no point enrolling in a programme that doesn’t have the time to consider your goals to the extent you require. We only take on a few executive clients in addition to our athletic populations at any one time for this precise reason.

How does it work?

There are two formats that we utilise which are:

Individual Coaching
Small Group Coaching

Individual coaching sessions are just that, a 1-on-1 service specifically tailored to your needs through our assessment procedure.

Small group coaching is a more flexible option in that you receive exactly the same level of service in terms of assessments and programme design as well as regular monitoring of your progress, however your sessions will be with other likeminded people all working to their own fully individualized programme in a small group format.

Money Back Guarantee

We offer a full money back guarantee for our programme packages. If you are not happy with the results or the service you receive after the first 3 months of training with us you can have all your money back!

We really are that confident in our capabilities, all you need to do is let us know and we’ll give you your money back straight away. Which other personal training service in the area offers that?

Our results speak for themselves.

Ian Fisher BSc ASCC: Strength and Conditioning Coach and Personal Trainer

“Having being involved with sport, exercise, health and wellbeing for as long as I can remember I can

whole heartedly say I live and breathe my job as personal trainer and S&C coach. Taking somebody through a journey to reach their goal, whether that is general health, weight loss, or sporting performance gives me immense pleasure and satisfaction and that is why I love my job.

I was lucky enough to have a professional sporting career in cricket for 15 years, and dedicated myself to trying everything I could in a quest to improve. This hopefully shows the effort, thought and attention to detail that I put into planning and delivering every session.

I believe in creating a lifestyle and exercise regime that is realistic, goal orientated and that will keep people healthy, both holistically and physically, for now and their future.

If your goal is anything from weight loss, general health, exercise competency, or sporting excellence I would like to work with you to achieve this so get in touch now!”
