I undertook the 8 week transformation challenge with Pete. It was the first time I had engaged with a personal trainer of any sort. It was tough to stay on track, with factors such as a toddler and a 3-month old, a job running a boarding house at a senior school, and a trip to France over Christmas to see family all pulling me in the wrong direction with regards to building regular exercise and healthy eating into my routine. I found Pete to be patient, helpful and encouraging, and I was really pleased with the results after 8 weeks. His nutrition advice was absolutely invaluable. I found the workouts that he set the right mix of tough, but also enjoyable and manageable, and the app he uses with you is really intuitive and helpful for keeping on track and seeing your progress. I would very much recommend working with Pete.

Just finished an 8 week transformation with POC Fitness, and the result have been great. Having a busy lifestyle between shift work/long hours and family life, Pete's approach has been so beneficial considering both nutrition and exercise that is productive and gets results. Pete keeps you accountable and is available for when you need him. The flexibility that Pete has means the programme can be adjusted and personalised along the way, whether you use a gym or have limited home equipment. Will definitely be recommending POC Fitness in the future

really can not recommend Pete and POC fitness coaching enough. I had been injured and recovering from two lots of ankle surgery when I reached out to Pete for help. My work life involves lots of client entertainment, and coupled with the inactivity I had let myself go. Pete devised a programme that revolved around managing my injury and rehab whilst losing weight and gaining fitness, it also still included client lunches on occasion! Thanks Pete, I’ll see you in June!

Pete is really a good instructor, motivated me all the time during my transformation program. He used to follow up almost every day abt my progress and also monitor my nutrition. Pete also gave one to one session whenever I requested which helped me get all the techniques correct l. I am glad that I did transformation challenge with Pete and was able to achieve my goal(straingth training) Thanks Pete... looking forward to get trained again in October this year

I can highly recommend Pete as a personal trainer after working with him for about a year. He's been highly devoted to me as a client whilst tailoring programs around both exercise and nutrition. He has also been very flexible and able to adopt to the challenging workout-from-home environment in a great way, really helps me to reach my fitness goals. I will be in touch with Pete, as natural go-to PT, for years to come and highly recommend his services to everyone.

I have started an online training with Pete two months ago. My personal goal was to become healthier and stronger. All sessions are very motivating - for each exercise there is a suggestion of easier and harder way of doing it, which makes it easier if you haven't trained regularly for a while like me. Also, Pete shares lots of healthy recipes and he is very supportive. I really enjoy my training with him and highly recommend it to everyone 🙂

Pete is a unique personal trainer because he genuinely cares about your well being. Most PT's I have worked with don't stay in contact with you, and move on when the money dries up, which is always unfortunate. Pete however has stayed in contact even when I'm not working with him. Unfortunately as you get older, you need to look at how you can adapt your training, especially in terms of recovery. Pete has always been able to balance, strength, high intensity and cardio training into my sessions. When you are injured he is always on hand to give you tips on stretching and mobility. If you are looking for a PT who cares about your long-term well being, then Pete is your man. I wish him all the best success in the future.

Pete is a really motivated, positive guy and a very knowledgable trainer. He's great at putting together custom training plans and seems to have an inexhaustible set of exercises, stretches and techniques to choose from. He's also very invested in you achieving your goals and is keen to understand what's working for you and what isn't. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a PT.

POC Fitness transformed my life. I can’t recommend his skills and training program more. I was struggling with motivation and approached Pete to discuss my options. We decided to setup a 12 week plan with both gym and diet goals. The whole process was made so much easier knowing I had a professional expert looking over and monitoring my journey. Those days I had negative thoughts to skip the gym were somehow beaten knowing I had accountability and check in calls with my trainer, it gave me the additional motivation I lacked without POC help. Pete and POC are a seriously professional and experienced business that I recommend to all my friends and family. Thank you Pete.

I trained with Pete for two or three sessions a week, to deal with a specific and complex problem - a very painful lower back that had developed over a few years and had proved resistant to lots of other types of treatment. Pete understood the issue immediately, and devised a specific exercise and stretching plan in order to fix it. I must say I was skeptical at first, having done some similar exercises before, but Pete put a lot of energy and attention into training me to do the exercises correctly, which made a dramatic difference; It really is the benefit of having a skilled trainer. It's two years later and my back doesn't hurt. Thanks Pete.

I worked with Pete as my trainer for a number of months, only cut short by continual lockdown. Pete is a very inspirational coach, very personable and dedicated. My personal goal was to be fitter and stronger with a more positive relationship to training and exercise, all of which I achieved working with Pete.

D. S.

Pete definitely helped me achieve my goals of becoming stronger, fitter and more flexible - he provided great bespoke exercise plans supported with dietary advice. During the sessions he's totally engaged and varies the routines a lot to keep it interesting.

J. S.

I've been training with Pete for over a year now. I was pretty active in terms of sports but had very little experience ( or discipline!) for toning, weights and other core and strength exercises. Pete's sessions are fun, with a good variety of exercises to match level of experience. He helps you to push yourself ( without feeling like you're in a military boot camp!) and I can really tell after a year of regular sessions that I'm much stronger and my posture has improved due to work outs with Pete. Recommended!

Since meeting Pete, it’s the first time I’ve ever enjoyed training in a gym. He made me want to train and look forward to my training sessions. Pete is motivating, he supports and understands your goals and what you want to achieve and implements his training methods to make yours goals a reality. His advice on diet and lifestyle psychology helped me to achieve my goals even quicker. After a short period of time, I saw physical results beyond my expectations and I am enjoying exercise more than I thought possible. He has inspired me to make dramatic changes in my lifestyle. He has been there with me every step of the way. I would have no hesitation in recommending him as your personal trainer if you want to achieve your fitness and health goals.

When I started out the training programme with Pete, my overall goals were to increase my strength and generally tone up. Pete designed a programme for me which was diverse, fun and just the right amount of challenging! It was great to track my progress and see how I was gaining strength weekly. I quickly noticed that I had toned up and having made some adjustments to my diet to actually eat more, Pete helped me drop 5% body-fat too. The programme made me fall in love with weights, feel so much more comfortable in the gym and see where my diet was getting in the way of my goals. I could recommend him enough, thank you so much Pete!!

If anyone is looking to get fit for the summer I can't recommend Peter highly enough. He helped me last year get as fit as I have ever been thanks to showing me the correct techniques for doing the barbell squat and deadlift with a bad back and giving me a workout plan to fit around work and lifestyle. I am now doing the online coaching and am very happy with how Peter is available for questions and is always pushing me which is helping me keep the weight off with new plans and exercises that make training fun. He has also set out a nutrition plan for me which has some absolutely delicious recipes. Thanks Peter and look forward to working with you more this year. 👍🙂

Pete provides very good personal coaching. He is painstaking in putting together highly individual training plans. Feedback is plentiful and Pete is always willing to make changes on request.

I've been personal training with Pete on a regular basis for over two years and can't recommend him enough. Apart from being excellent at the main bread and butter of his training work, he's consistently upbeat and encouraging and makes a huge effort with nutrition and other aspects around the training itself. I've had other personal trainers and Pete is the best by far.

I highly recommend Pete as a personal trainer. I had issues with my hips and now need a hip replacement. Pete was incredibly sensitive to this issue researching and tailoring my training to get me in shape and prepare me for the operation. i noticed a major transformation in my body over my year with pete. He is also a very gentle and charming person and was a pleasure to work with and i will be joining him again post surgery recovery.

Initially, I trained with Pete in person, then we switched to a hybrid plan of in person and online sessions. After completing the hybrid plan, we transitioned solely to an online program. I achieved excellent results with his program, coaching and guidance. We trained through different phases depending on my goals from cutting to bulking. He taught me how to train more effectively. He also provided helpful nutrition and lifestyle coaching. I would highly recommend him!

S. G.

Pete has been great for not only my fitness levels, but he’s also helped me with my lower back problems and with nutrition in general. He’s is very knowledgeable about all aspects of health and fitness and he always listens to my concerns and tailors the sessions to suit my limitations. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

D. S.

It's always daunting to start getting into shape and changing your lifestyle. But with Peter it was easy to take that first step. I thoroughly enjoyed the classes and how he made sure everyone was doing the workout correctly. I felt comfortable and a lot more motivated. Thank you for the support, guidance and care. Here's to a better, healthier and fitter me!

I was coached by Pete since 2016 interrupted only by lockdown. He pushed me whilst respecting limits. He is attentive to injury. Built a personal programme which he varied and built on as we progressed. Listened to my goals and trained appropriately. I tend to book blocks of training according to my goals. He doesn't yell / check phone whilst training or get distracted by mates whilst I'm working. The bottom line is WE GOT RESULTS!

I did the 60day weight lost plan with Pete. I was pretty apprehensive about doing it as i wasnt sure if id be able to stick to it. I have 4 kids and a pretty hectic lifestyle, plus we had just moved home, but i thought if i didnt do something now i would just continue down the “easy snacking”, and finishing of my girls tea routine that id fallen into. My main goals were to get back into some sort of exercise routine, and to get healthier and feel good about myself again. Pete understood this, and sorted out a training plan that was suitable for me, and took extra care into what i could do as our youngest was 3 months when i signed up. I was given good advice on what would benefit me best nutritionally, and what lifestyle changes i should consider. Again Pete took into account i was breast feeding so advised me with that aswel. My biggest challenges were stopping being a human waste disposal, and planning my meals and basically just stocking my cupboards with the right snacky kinds of foods. Iv seen a huge change in me physically, and i feel so much better for it. The way i eat now has been really enjoyable, as iv discovered some yummy new things aswel, but lifestyle wise its been great for the whole family. I lost 7kgs over the 60 days, and that was even with me totally falling of the training plan the final couple of weeks due to hectic family/ work life. Thanks Pete 👍

I have so much to say about how amazing Peter has been helping me get back on track with my health, exercise and well being. I joined Peter's online programme just before christmas and have really appreciated all his time and support with getting me motivated again and looking after myself. To start I was unsure what I could actually fit into my daily routine at the moment and, even with a few mini life bumps along the way, I feel I'm on the path to getting myself back to a level of basic fitness. This is all being done at home around the busy routine of my 3 young children. Peter, I have been blown away with your understanding and interest in my personal situation and I thank you for all you have done. It's a long road ahead for me still but for now i have the confidence to give it a good go and put all I have learnt into action. So if anyone I know is thinking they need that helping hand on where to start please do give Peter a message.

For a fitter, leaner and happier you, look no further! Peter is very focussed, supportive and committed in helping you achieve your goals with his online coaching. I’ve enjoyed every step of the coaching and meal plan! Thank you for your support.

Pete helped me get in shape to go to Peru and complete the Inca Trail. Such a great trainer and even though they were tough, I always enjoyed our training sessions and had a lot of fun.

D. L.

Pete really knows his stuff - he is very focussed on technique, nutrition and tailoring a plan based on your end goals. I highly recommend him as a PT. Very calm, positive, precise and dedicated.

M. a.

Pete helped me to get back into a fitness routine. I feel stronger and with more energy. I feel more positive and the sessions are really good fun.

S. T.

Pete always provides a tailor-made programme and helps you to keep on track to achieve your goals.
