TESTIMONIALS
Read what some of my clients have to say about working with me.
Ian is THE best coach I have ever worked with. His dedication to his clients is unmatched. He always puts together fantastic programmes that are always personalised for my needs. His knowledge on strength, nutrition and all things health and fitness is really top quality. Couldn't recommend him enough. Also don't forget to ask him about mobility and massage - his partner is unbelievable at this too!
James Moore - Online Coaching Client
I’ve trained with Ian in both 1 to 1 and a group setting and I would 100% recommend him. He’s extremely knowledgable, very patient and makes training fun and effective without any faff!
As a PT myself, I wanted someone who really knows their stuff so I could learn the basics of Olympic lifting. Ian is really patient with me and has helped build my confidence in the different movements and I’d highly recommend him to anyone - whether you’re looking for a specific strength & conditioning coach, or just want to keep fit and healthy in general.
Becca Gourley - Personal Training Client
I have been coached by Ian for around 6 months now and cannot recommend him enough. He really takes time to understand what you want to work towards and does all he can to get you there, making you accountable along the way which is exactly how it should be. He is also very conscious of the experience of who he is coaching and can tell he is continually tweaking how he operates to give the most to his clients Thank you Ian!
Daryl Wood - Online Coaching Client
Ian was my first coach after my L4&5 disk injury. He not only helped build my strength back out and attack some imbalances I was carrying, but he also built up my confidence with lifting heavy again.
Ian has a wealth of knowledge and always listened to any feedback I had, and was happy to adjust plans if I had a flare up. He's a very versatile coach! Also good for some banter.

Ian is simply the best Coach in the area. Not only does he have years of coaching experience, masses of qualifications and a wealth of real life training knowledge, he’s also a great guy. The best thing is, you don’t even need to be local to benefit from his coaching!
100% recommend you work with Ian and change your life.
Dan Murray - Personal Training Client
Awesome programming and coaching every time (except for the sled work) Ian spends time to understand goals and restrictions and each training block delivers. Currently an online client and still delivers the same methodology. Ian checks in regularly via the app which keeps me honest and focused.
Craig Moore - Online Coaching Client
I worked one on one with Ian for 18 months after I ruptured my ACL and MCL. His experience and approach are second to none and he is one of the best coaches I have ever worked with. Not only did he help me get back to sport quicker than the surgeons anticipated, he got me back in better shape and condition than before my injury. Because of Ian and his coaching, not only am I still leading a physical life, I often forget which knee it was I had rebuilt.
He is also a bloody lovely guy and great fun to be around at 6am every morning.
I cannot recommend him highly enough if you are looking for a professional, kind, humble coach who will make you better than you ever thought you could be.
Richard Sharp - Personal Training Client
I’ve worked with Ian for a few weeks to work on technique for a few specific lifts to help with my long distance triathlon training. Ian has just been brilliant at building my confidence, helping me get my technique right and changing my mindset towards lifting. Thanks to Ian’s attention to detail I now have a great foundation and confidence to continue with lifting sessions on my own and I can’t wait to see how I progress over the winter.
Naomi Shinkins - Personal Training Client
There are fitness coaches and then there are FITNESS COACHES - Ian is certainly the latter, and really is as good as they come.
Great technical knowledge, and a clear communicator to get the message across. Just a shame about his questionable choices in fantasy football…..
If you’re lucky enough to get a space on his training programme snap it up! Opportunities to be coached by someone of Ian’s calibre don’t come around often!
Toby Evans - Personal Training Client
Online coaching from an experienced and educated coach, not an Instagram pretender.
Chris Bundell - Strength and Conditioning Coach and Lecturer
Ian is a great Coach, with vast knowledge, his attitude and energy he brings is like no other. excellent coach!
Andrew McErlain - Personal Training Client
Could not recommend Ian enough! Such a fantastic coach who creates such a positive experience and has made me love to train again!
Michael Barry - Personal Training Client
Ian's programming and patience were what encouraged me to learn and stick with strength and conditioning. It's never easy but it's always achievable if you put the effort in. He has the experience and knowledge to support how and what you learn.
Ian's in-depth knowledge of nutrition to optimise your training and and how you feel gives you the motivation to shop, prep, cook and eat well.
Bridget Irvine - Personal Training Client
I was coached by Ian for several years. He’s super friendly, very knowledgeable and, (most importantly for me!) patient.
He takes any injury or weakness into account and is extremely supportive.
Polly Trapp - Personal Training Client
Excellent coach - adaptable , creative and delivers results . His programmes are dynamic and his knowledge is excellent. One key aspect is it’s tailored to you , helps avoid injury and improves overall athletic ability.
Michael Leonard - Online Coaching Client
Ian was a great coach over a number of years, his approach to programming & coaching lead to engaging and productive sessions in the gym that I always looked forward to. I would highly recommend Ian.
Phil Bartlett - Personal Training Client
A wealth of knowledge and experience, couldn’t recommend him enough.
Alex Parry - Personal Training Client
Coach Ian has helped tutor me to becoming a personal trainer myself, very good knowledge and personal skills, which he uses to get the full potential out of everyone he works with.
Alex Froud - Personal Training Student
Quality standard of coaching I see demonstrated from Ian day in, day out!
Sessions are always planned well in advance and clearly accurate for the needs of the client. The attention to details during his coaching is second to non and his clients are always smiling!
Top coach!!
James Issac - Personal Trainer and Gym Owner
Yessss I did it! Thank you so much for getting me to my goals! I've really enjoyed the process, with yummy recipes I'll continue to use! I know I havent followed the plan to a T but I now understand my calories, what foods I can eat for a nutritious filling lunch for work rather than putting bad combinations together!
​
I really appreciate that you didn't pester me as that always makes me stop and fail! You gave me good feedback and nudged me when needed! Thank you again Ian!
