Find a Personal Trainer in Basford

My time with JC has been incredible so far. I've always been very skinny and underweight, I was struggling with gaining weight and muscle and worrying about confidence, self-esteem,anxiety and was scared of going to the gym. I was looking everywhere to try and find the perfect way to fix it. I found that all the information on the internet, all the gym apps I downloaded were all made for people trying to lose weight and not gain weight, this made me feel really lost and worried about what to do next but luckily I found JC (OnsidePT). I've been training with JC for around 6 months now and it's been some of the best months of my life. He has a heavily customizable approach to training, nutrition and all aspects of the health journey which make it super easy for any newcomer like myself to achieve their goals. With constant feedback and suggestions, it always feels like he's doing more than just his job because he actually cares for the outcome and well-being of his clients. I needed to workout at home, he accommodated, worried about my form on an exercise, he taught me the correct way to do it, I was struggling for many weeks getting the form on a particular exercise, he replaced that with something I'd prefer that still targeted the same muscles. This approach to make the workout as appealing for the client is what I really love, it's never too much trouble to switch things around to make sure that you enjoy the overall experience. I've now gone from pressing 20kg on my office floor to an actual gym pressing 45kg on a barbell and bench, JC sets you up so you always feel like you're equipped to tackle the whole fitness space, and it never feels like he holds information back, if he knows it (and he knows a lot) and it'll help, he'll let you know. The OnsidePT app that JC uses is incredibly useful at tracking all food through linking to myfitnesspal, tracking weight changes and tracking all your workouts, exercises and exactly when and how to do them. You even get a nice notification when you complete a certain amount of workouts or beat your personal bests which is always rewarding. This makes the whole experience that much easier and more fun, it also means JC can constantly see how your workouts are going, and keep in touch about it. Including feedback every week to keep you on track with your goals. Having a person to hold me accountable, constantly keep me pushing but understanding that everyone is human and has off days is just what I needed to help me feel comfortable going forward with my more healthy life. I reccomend JC to anyone, he will help change your life around what ever fitness problems you're facing and encourage you to be an even better person overall, while being a great dude to just have a chat too aswell in-between your sessions. If you're questioning whether or not to get a personal trainer. Invest in yourself by investing in JC because you're sure to see improvements across so many areas and really enjoy yourself doing so.

Sally is highly experienced and really knows her stuff. I have suffered chronic pain for 15 years due to badly learnt posture. I started seeing Sally last year and we are gradually re-teaching my body good alignment, that has reduced my pain and given me the confidence to start doing more strenuous activities. Sally's patient, encouraging and challenging style of training is helping me achieve my goals.

Just had 30min Taster Session of Reiki Treatment. Was well & truly zoned out & would recommend it. Thank you Amanda T Matthews x

If you’re serious about changing your body and investing in yourself then this is the place for you. Dani’s knowledge goes above and beyond what you’d expect from a personal trainer. From the moment you first contact her she provides you with an in-depth package of forms to fill out and arranges an initial consultation which is tailored to your body and goals. I’m a physiotherapist myself and it was immediately evident that Dani uses scientifically proven training methods and diets to sculpt and change your body. What makes her different? -Her knowledge is beyond what you’d expect from most personal trainers-She religiously changes your program every few weeks and logs every single exercise each session so that you can see the progression-She has results to prove it, not only from all the super looking clients walking out of her door after a session, but also from her own achievements in body fitness modelling competitions-She invests her time into you and treats you as an individual and not just as a number-She doesn’t stick to one training method and diet plan for everyone. She’s done her research and recognises that everyone’s body responds differently. She therefore has multiple methods of shocking your body into being the best it can be. I’ve noticed that a lot of other personal trainers use the same training plans and similar diet plans on lots of clients, but Dani’s are much more individually tailoredI’m a 5ft 3in female who just wanted to look a little more toned when I contacted Dani. After only one year of moderate frequency training with her I’m now part of the British Army. I’m one of the fittest and strongest people in my unit and this has opened up so many incredible opportunities for me, all thanks to Dani Lucille.

I started working with Chris during lockdown in 2020 as I needed some motivation to get moving again for my physical and mental health. Chris took the time to understand my needs and quickly created a plan to put to action. His super friendly and professional approach kept me motivated, and his knowledge on anatomy and form is the best I've come across - I've learnt so much! I've used several personal trainers over the years and can confidently say Chris is the best I've had. He tried out different exercise approaches to find what worked for me, which ended up being a mix of boxing, weights and running. I'm so excited to carry on along this journey and build a healthy, functional relationship with exercise again, and hit some PB's!! Thanks Chris!

It's been a great experience to works with Chris He is a very passionate person and I’m so glad that I met him because I could see the result in just a few session I highly recommend him for who they want to see the result as soon as I 😌

Mark was absolutely fantastic! I was a bit wary with returning to the gym, particularly due to COVID, but he took the time and explained all the safety measures that were in place to ensure that I was comfortable. I really liked the fact that I got to do a FREE taster session, to make sure it was the right fit for me, and I absolutely loved it. I am now signed up to do 2 x 1 hour sessions per week, with the opportunity to get £10 back in 4 weeks time. This is great for me because it gives me a financial motive to stay motivated and achieve my goals. 5 stars - would absolutely recommend.

I have been training on and off for years, however, never saw the results. Since training with Tom, I didn’t think I would be so diligent and motivated to push myself week after week. He is always very helpful and wants you to achieve those goals you set for yourself. He pushes you and keeps it interesting/ challenging by including different types of fitness like Hiit and reps/sets. He helps you keep an eye on your macros, and teaches you what you need to know, to achieve your goal. 100% recommend.

Nice place. Large bed. No cooking hob if you wanted to cook but dont think it advertisers one..

Sarah Prior Review of JP Dynamic Fitness - May 2011 I was in the process of training for the London Marathon 2011 earlier this year and was a little lost in my training and needed a bit more direction. I felt I needed to give serious thought to my diet and other types of exercise apart from running. I was looking to seek advice from a personal trainer and Jurga was recommended to me. I firstly met with Jurga to discuss my diet, this was then followed by a gym session where we specifically worked on the areas that I wanted to target i.e. core strength, stability and stretching as I was concerned about getting injured. I received honest and practical advice from Jurga - as a working mum I haven’t got a lot of time. I received advice on how to improve my diet to benefit my training and to keep my energy levels up which has been of great help and benefit to me. The gym session was also invaluable to me and the exercises I was shown were 100% geared towards my requirements. Since meeting with Jurga, I have successfully completed the London Marathon, have lost a few pounds in weight and am now looking to run my next marathon in Sept. My eating habits have improved immensely and I feel much happier for it. I would definitely recommend Jurga’s services for sports nutrition and exercise.

Marcus is a wonderful friend and someone you can rely on in follow up and consideration and empathy. I strongly recommend his work! Siri S Opli
