What will happen during my consultation and first session?

The first step towards achieving your fitness goals is your initial assessment. Once you send in your application form, we'll schedule a meeting to discuss your goals, medical history, and preferences. We'll also conduct a movement and nutritional assessment, as well as some basic fitness and functional movement tests to determine your starting point. The assessment is simple and helps us design a program tailored to your needs. During the session, you'll get to try a range of exercises to give you an idea of what to expect.

How long before I see results?

In addition to physical changes, many clients also experience improvements in their mental health and overall well-being through my training and coaching. Building a healthy lifestyle can have a positive impact on mental health, and I believe in a holistic approach that addresses both physical and mental well-being. So, in addition to working on your physical fitness, I will also support you in improving your mental health and overall well-being.

I'm a beginner will this be suitable for me?

That's right! I believe in designing a plan that is tailored to your specific needs and goals, regardless of your experience level. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced athlete, my aim is to help you achieve fantastic results that will make you feel proud and accomplished. I will work closely with you to ensure that the plan is challenging but also realistic and achievable. Together, we'll take your fitness to the next level, improve your mental health, and help you feel your best.

How will you measure my progress?

I will measure your progress via many metrics, such as progress in strength (progressive overload), measurements, scale weight, improvements in endurance, and of course, assessing your body composition. Full body measurements are done every four weeks, with other metrics like strength and weight I'll track each week.

Will I receive nutrition plan?

Absolutely! You'll know what foods to eat and what foods are best avoided. You'll know what will be required pre and post-workout to optimise your performance and recovery. All this whilst providing delicious recipes to help keep things exciting. I will completely remove the guesswork for you.

Will I need to train every day?

That's right! I understand that everyone has a different schedule and commitments, so I'll work with you to find a plan that fits into your lifestyle. Whether you're a busy parent or have a hectic work schedule, we'll find a way to make it work for you. We'll discuss your availability and preferences, and I'll design a plan that is not only effective but also enjoyable for you. The most important thing is that you enjoy your fitness journey and feel motivated to stick to it!

How will I track what I eat?

I'll track your food diary by using the MyFitnessPal app. MyFitnessPal is the most popular and most user-friendly way of tracking your diet. Using this, I can ensure you're within your calorie targets, nailing your macros ratios as well as consuming an overall nutrient-rich diet.

What should I wear for a personal training session?

You’re going to be moving around and working up a sweat, so wear comfortable clothing that’s easy to move in and will still be comfortable when you get a bit sweaty, along with clean and comfortable trainers. Ladies, two words – sports bra!

Please do not wear jeans, high heels or other clothing unsuited to exercising.


If your session is taking place outdoors, please check the weather and dress appropriately. Remember that you will get hot and sweaty in the session, so bring a jumper or sweatshirt to keep you warm on your way home.

Where will I train?

Whenever possible, your Personal Training sessions will be outside. The great outdoors offers a calm, natural environment in which to start your body transformation journey. We live in a stunning part of the country boasting beautiful parks, gardens and coastline.  We will choose your workout locations together based on what’s convenient for you. I also have exclusive use of a fitness studio in Hove so in extreme weather conditions there will be a contingency plan.

What type of training will I do?

Within our tailored sessions you can expect to complete:

  • Resistance Training -using free weights, bands and kettlebells

  • Core Training –  using free weights and balls

  • Balance Training, though single leg work and balance boards

  • Circuit Training, using cones and speed ladders

  • Flexibility Training, using techniques from Yoga and Pilates


I specialise in resistance and body weight training. Resistance training with appropriate weights is key because as your lean muscle tissue increases, the rate at which you burn calories increases which in turn accelerates your metabolic rate. This helps to reduce excess body fat levels to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way. This is a highly efficient way of training because it means you don’t have to perform endless cardiovascular workouts!

What equipment will I use?

Effective and enjoyable workouts can be done anywhere, anytime and with minimal equipment. 
Only when we are happy with your form and technique will we incorporate additional fitness equipment such as dumbbells or a medicine ball. Included in your Body Transformation handbook I've given you guidance on the equipment you should ideally buy for use at your home.

Where will our Wellbeing sessions take place?

Coaching forms an integral part of your transformation journey so that we can check progress, talk about successes and obstacles and set new goals therefore, it’s imperative that we make time for a 1-1 (ideally face to face) catch up each week. This can be over a coffee after one of your PT sessions or at a separate time that works for you.
