"Turning 40 with an underactive thyroid (now treated) had left me nearly 14 stone. I decided enough was enough I was tired of feeling stodgy, unattractive and with no energy or clothes that fitted! As a long time member (but very infrequent user ) of the gym, exercise was key to the weight loss and increased fitness I wanted"

"Worked with Aaron due to his powerlifting background as I went from a huge lockdown caused break from training to competing at a qualifying competition. a wealth of knowledge and easily approachable made the whole process more a working partnership than a trainer just telling you what to do. I saw some great results and restored a drive in training"
