What a 1-2-1 session is for
- Knowledge
- Being educated while you train makes the work more effective and lowers the chance of injury. That includes the tips, tricks and advice from the session.
- Motivation
- Whatever the reason, it is sometimes hard to start. Regular sessions give you the boost. Sometimes all you need is a bit more support. I'll give you plenty.
- Accountability
- Throw the “I'll go tomorrow, I'm too tired” excuses out. Sticking to a schedule gives you a reason to follow through, and it is the best way to reach the goal.
- Personalised plan
- A common picture of a personal trainer is someone loud, in your face, working you to exhaustion with heavy lifting. That is not the default. Unless you work better when you're shouted at — then be my guest. I also run lower-intensity sessions that pay off over time. Tell me what you're looking for and we build a plan for you. You can't chase too many different goals at once.
- Challenge
- It's easy to get bored, plateau, or stop seeing the result you wanted. I will challenge you and take you to the next level.
- Variety
- The routine has range: machines, free weights, bodyweight and cardio. The sky is the limit.
- Goals
- We start with small goals that build into something you can be proud of. Follow the lead and you'll be surprised how far it goes.
- Improvements
- According to Lifehacker, studies have shown better strength improvements with supervised training than without. I will coach, push and motivate you further than you may push yourself.
- More than fitness
- You will spend enough time with me that I may become an unofficial therapist. I'm here for the training, and I care about how you're doing. Nutrition, and exercises aimed at stress, are part of it. I plan, I organise, and I work out how to get you to try things you haven't done. I'll praise you and I'll tell you off. I approach each person differently, answer questions, and I will believe in you.

Online coaching
If you cannot join personal training in person, I also coach online through my Fitness Gangsta app. I write your sessions there — kilograms, distance and heart rate — and you open Today when you train.
When we start online coaching, I send you an invite to join. Until then, book in-person sessions on WhatsApp.
