Testimonials

“In four months of seeing David I have achieved my target of losing 2 stone in weight. I could not have done this without David's help and I am delighted with how I feel and the difference it has made. He is extremely knowledgeable and motivational and I would not hesitate to recommend him .”

Mrs S Bennett, 60's, Barton-on-Sea, Hampshire

"I have trained with David on a weekly basis for the last 3 years. I came to him with a good level of fitness and with a background in endurance sports, skiing and mountaineering. My goals over that period have been varied and challenging. My weekly sessions with David have provided me with an underlying physical resilience. David understands my goals and suggests appropriate changes to my regime and helps me to manage both old injuries and new ones I pick up from my sports challenges. His sessions can be hard but always enjoyable."

Mr A McLean, 40's, Sway, New Forest

"I booked in with David 7 months ago because I felt so down about my weight and general self esteem. My sister was getting married and so I thought this was the perfect target to work towards. We set a target of 2 stone to lose and I'm delighted to say the wedding has just taken place and I achieved it! But it is so much more than that. David has shown me how to improve my health with both exercise and food and it has transformed how I feel about myself. I am married with a young son and I work full time and looking after myself always seemed to be the lowest priority. I am delighted to say with just simple changes and mindset I'm so much happier and healthier which can only be a good thing for my family. David has kept me on the right path and kept my confidence high, and I look forward to continuing my weight loss journey and getting stronger."

Mrs A Taylor, 30's, Sway, New Forest

“I had always avoided gym sessions until I took the plunge and went to see David. I wanted to increase my general fitness levels and shape up a bit. Within weeks of starting with David I felt a difference in my fitness levels and this was noticed by others too. Four years down the line, David has kept me motivated and helped me through sports injuries and niggles. There is no doubt I feel the benefit both on the tennis court and golf course. The sessions are enjoyable but also challenging. He is able to vary the sessions and take into account my mood and seems to know when I need a hard workout or something less energetic with more toning and flexibility rather than stamina and CV.”

Ms J White, 60's, Lymington, Hampshire

"During the 8 months I trained with David, with his help and guidance, I lost 3 stone and 5 pounds in weight. David keeps you motivated and helps you every step of the way making training fun and enjoyable. I have no hesitation in recommending David. Just take his advice and it will work!"

Mrs S Stone, 30's, Milford-on-Sea, Hampshire

“I have been fortunate enough to have received David's guidance through a double hip replacement.  Due to the stretch on resources I had been unable to receive physio treatment via the usual routes and came to David to help me through the rehabilitation process.  I have now made a full recovery. He always exudes a positive attitude and the sessions are fun and interesting, which in turn gives you the confidence to push yourself further.  Thank you so much for your help and support.”

Ms C Czirok, 50's, Hordle, Hampshire

"In the nine months that I've been training with David, he has transformed my fitness and general wellbeing. In particular, we have worked on improving the strength and mobility of my back, which was injured many years ago playing rugby. I haven't felt as healthy and pain-free for a very long time and wholeheartedly recommend David to anyone looking to improve their fitness of re-habilitate an injury."

Mr S. Billington, 40's, Lymington, Hampshire

"Since seeing David, he has got me back into playing golf by strengthening my back and knees, lowered my blood pressure and I am fitter now than I was in my 50's, living life to the full. Thanks David."

Mr R Parker, 60's, Sway, Hampshire

"A year ago whilst playing rugby I sustained a serious knee injury, snapping both anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. My post surgery rehab wasn't going well and I was losing motivation. Then I found David online. I read through his testimonials and arranged a meeting. In just six months after seeing David I'm delighted to say I'm back rugby training and I'm feeling stronger and more confident every week. As each week passes there are new exercises to keep things fresh and he knows just how far to push me and get the most out of each session. Thank you David."

Mr J Poole, 30's, New Forest, Hampshire

"Training with David as a couple has been the best fitness programme we have ever been involved with." (see testimonial above)

Mrs M Parker, 60's, Sway, Hampshire

"At the beginning of the year I became low and depressed with my weight. I also had problems with my knee and I was in pain just from walking. Then I found David. He has transformed my life. I am now pain free, there is less of me and I feel healthy and happy. David is a brilliant personal trainer, always positive and full of encouragement. I would highly recommend him to anyone."

Ms J Green, 50's, Christchurch, Dorset

"I have been using David for about a year now. I needed a personal trainer to help me get back into exercise after a devastating ankle injury. I had spent 3 months in bed and not weight bearing and needed to work with someone who would be able to adapt to my recovery requirements. David has been fantastic. He pays attention to detail and makes sure that he pushes me, but does not cause injury. He sets goals regularly and I achieve them. He mixes sessions up so I don't get bored. I would definitely recommend his services.”

Ms K Mitchell, Pennington, Hampshire

"David, a huge thank you for helping us to make the New Forest Cycletta a huge success. We could not have done the day without you! The women left your stretch zone (which you had up an running throughout the event) totally chilled and both Simon and I received lots of praise for you and the sessions you organised. Fantastic!! It was just great to work with you for the day and of course donations will be made to Macmillan on your behalf."

Mrs M Turner, 40's, Romsey, Hampshire

“When I first started seeing David I had been suffering from tennis elbow for quite a while. All previous advice was complete rest. David however guided me through a programme of very light weights and stretches to help blood flow around the injury. My tennis elbow quickly cleared up and I now see David once a week to keep me fit for tennis. His expertise is second to none and I find him to be an outstanding personal trainer."

Mr M. Barette, 60's, Brockenhurst, Hampshire

Mr R Court, 30's, London

"I had been suffering with hip and back pain for two years and visits to my GP and a number of other medical professionals did not help the situation. I came across David and thought it would be worth a go. We began straight away by strengthening my core and back using specific exercises and stretches. I now have a much better understanding and management of my hip and back pain. Thanks to David's perseverance and expertise I am able to live an active life again."

Mrs J. Clapham, 40's, Lymington, Hampshire
