Reviews of Focus 4 Fitness
S. C.Recently I ran the Manchester Marathon and if it wasn't for the help and support from Rob Sears I wouldn't have got the results I did. Rob set up a plan for me every two weeks with a zoom meeting to see how my training was going and if anything needed adjusting before I got the next 2 weeks. This is the first time I have followed a plan based on hours and minutes. I have done a few generic plans and have struggled with them. Rob's plans are by far the best as I don't have to worry how many miles I have to run only the time.
I highly recommend Rob to anyone for help with any type of running, exercises, stretching programs and definitely for a sports massage.
Rob is warm and friendly and very efficient and helpful.

M. G.First time at the Focus for Fitness new location. Rob is welcoming and friendly as always and the sports massage really does reach the places other massages do not reach.
The new location at Rob's home is easy to find and parking is available and free avoiding the trouble of city parking.
The treatment room is newly fitted out and warm and comfortable making for an pleasant appointment.
Good luck in your new location Rob and thanks again for the advice whilst carrying out my treatment.
H. Y.I went to Rob with sciatica after being recommended by a friend. I wasn’t sure what to expect but was amazed with the results; after only one session, the pain had gone and I could walk without any discomfort. I found Rob to be really helpful and supportive, he provided me with a set of exercises to work on at home to help maintain and build my back strength/flexibility. I will be continuing appointments for maintenance as recommended and
would not hesitate to recommend Rob and Focus4Fitness.
T. G.I’ve been going to Rob for a few years now for sports massage,he’s also my run coach,but yesterday was my first visit to him at his new location.
On arrival I found his room comfortable,welcoming and warm.
Rob was professional and friendly as always,sports massages aren’t the most relaxing but he does put you at ease.
My legs were getting increasingly tighter so one of his massages is just what I needed.
He also picked up a lot of tightness in my lower back.
I won’t be leaving so long before I have my next one this time.
Thanks Rob,my legs are feeling a lot looser today.
J. D.A sports massage is never the most relaxing but it's so necessary. I'd been struggling with hamstring issues so booked in for a massage, no longer at the clinic but at Rob's home treatment room. It was a warm, comfortable and relaxing place to have my treatment. He's not called Mr Magic Hands for nothing and I cannot recommend Focus 4 Fitness highly enough. As advised I will be making this a regular appointment to stay on top of any issues.
A. M.I heard about Rob via word of mouth and decided i so needed his help. I emailed Rob who responded super quick and made an appointment.
The clinic was covid clean and the ambience was perfect.
My back was not in a good state, Rob weaved his magic and today i feel so much better.
Rob is an Angel, dont wait and suffer with pain like i did for 2 months, get in contact with this very kind, professional young man. Thank you so much Rob, so grateful.
B. P.Having suffered from a shoulder injury for months, I visited Rob and in just one session he was able to get straight into the problem. I now have restored mobility and significantly reduced pain. Rob is a true professional and certainly knows his stuff, he really has helped me out I can't recommend highly enough. Thanks Rob 👍
A. R.Stepping up the miles for my marathon/ultra has meant taking even greater care of my body and a regular sports massage with Rob is an absolute must. Rob is an expert in his field and is quick to set his ‘magic hands’ to work addressing niggles, easing muscle pressures and, most importantly, enabling running to continue with no time lost. Rob quickly puts you at your ease, happily answering questions, providing invaluable insight and advice based on his many years of sports experience. The treatment room in Rob’s home is welcoming and professional; it provides a calm, private space. Parking is extremely easy, as is booking an appointment. Quite simply, Rob keeps my body working so that it can deliver. I would not go anywhere else.
s. h.Enlisting Rob’s help with training for the London Marathon was without a doubt the best decision I could have made. I always thought that I wasn’t good enough to ask for the help of a professional and that only ‘proper athletes’ did that kind of thing. Wrong!! Rob’s patience, attention to detail, encouragement and support were everything I needed to boost my fitness, my running ability, and importantly, my confidence. He helped me to have the most incredible marathon experience, injury free, feeling fit and strong, and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much Rob!!
H. M. D.Winning a place in the ballot for the London Marathon was amazing, unfortunately injury struck and couldn’t even run half a mile, which left me thinking I would have to defer my place. I decided to bite the bullet and enlist the help of a running coach, I wish I had found Rob sooner. Rob was amazing from the start, he never doubted that I would be able to run 26.2 miles. With his help, encouragement and expertise over 18 weeks of training he helped me grow in confidence and made me believe that I would be able to run the distance. I know that without Robs support I wouldn’t have finished my first Marathon pain free and with smile on my face. Thanks Rob!
J. G.A running coach is not just for the elite, Rob at Focus 4 Fitness has been instrumental in getting me ready for VLM2021.
After a bereavement I turned to Rob to guide me through my training and it was the best decision I could have made. He provided a bespoke plan and regular check ins which kept me on track to achieve my goal.
Always offering plenty of encouragement and support and available to discuss any issues and concerns. Sometimes just a quick chat made everything feel ok again!
The sports massage were hugely beneficial in the build up to marathon day, also a great opportunity to talk strategy.
We had a plan 4hr 30 and succeeded with 4hr 28, everything went according to plan, text book! All thanks to the support, encouragement and wise words of motivation and guidance :)
Thank you Rob
C. S.I have been a Personal Training client of Rob @ Focus4fitness for the past 6 months, having originally signed up for a 5 week session to help me get back to running following an ankle stress fracture. 6 month later I am still here! I am not only back running, I am feeling more positive and stronger than ever and Rob is now helping me work towards my new goal of running the London marathon in the autumn! Rob tailored my initial sessions to help build up my strengthen particularly round my injury, and when I was ready, gave me a plan for easing back into running in a controlled manner to minimize the risk of further injury. He has continued to build on this as I have progressed and to adapt to my new goal! When I have needed it, Rob has also provided support and advice on nutrition and wellbeing. As a consequence I am feeling better than ever! Rob is always supportive and encouraging. I always feel better and more motivated after a session, no matter how I feel beforehand, and I am so glad I took that first step, daunting though it seemed at the time!
A. P.I have personally been training with Rob for a number of years. In that time he has helped me train for various triathlons, challenges and guided me through the injury recovery process. My wife wanted to begin running again after suffering persistent knee injuries. Rob suggested she joined us for our regular strength and conditioning prehab sessions. She did one session online and loved it. We now regularly train together (via zoom) with Rob and benefit from both his expertise and calm and approachable manner. She is now back running and enjoying her exercise again. Thanks to Rob for all his hard work. Look this man up without hesitation, his knowledge is fantastic and passion is motivating. A genuine top guy!
D. S.I have been having personal training sessions with Rob for around 5 months now and he has radically transformed me. I no longer wheeze. I have lost 10' off my waist and for the first time in my life I have muscle definition.
Rob is incredibly knowledgable & as far as I can ascertain he is the most formally qualified in the area.
He has been astonishingly fastidious about CV19 safety and many of our sessions have been via Zoom where Rob's ingenuity has meant that his well appointed gym hasn't been overly missed.
He's been great at keeping me motivated and fit through a number of injuries and recovery from surgery.
I really cannot recommended him enough.
G. D.After months of frustrating rehab/physio etc with a long standing injury, I went to see Rob and I honestly wish i'd've found him sooner. Despite knowing the history of it all, he wasn't at all phased to work on the problem and see where we got to. Can honestly say that although rarely pain free, his massages played a huge part in being able to get back to a decent level of sport/activity. He was also mega helpful in the run up to my ultra event and ensured I got through it in one piece. Be warned though, he's an advocate of colourful rock tape!
100% recommend Rob and wouldn't hesitate in going back for any further issues.
T.Rob helped me the same day of contacting him with and zoom consultation.
Following his advice regarding my bad knee pain resulting from my cycle turbo overtraining programme and lack strength training. It significantly improved in a week, within two it had almost disappeared. The foam roller is the work of the devil (but very effective with the direction of Rob)!
Many many thanx
E. H.A friend of mine recommended that I get in touch with Rob to help with weight loss and fitness, and I can honestly say that I would not have been able to achieve half as much as I have done without Rob's help!
He's helped me to lose 2 stone so far, since starting PT sessions. And he helped me train for Run Norwich to be my first (and I thought only) 10K Race, but with his motivation and support, I'm booked on to my third one in a few weeks.
M. J.I would highly recommend Focus 4 Fitness. In March 2019 I had to stop running because of an Achilles injury, midway through training for a marathon. Through Rob’s sports massage therapy, advice and rehab program I was running within a month and was still able to complete the marathon in May. I’ve since had experience with both Rob and Loren’s running coaching and it has improved me significantly.
J. P.I have found Focus for Fitness and Rob to be incredibly knowledgeable. He has got me back to competition level after a series of injuries. Under his guidance I am back in full training and excited about future events. If you want a sports therapist then I would have no hesitation in recommending Rob.
J. R.Thanks to Rob, I will competing in my first Iron Man, I really didn't think I would ever be capable of doing !!! with the expert knowledge advice, help, support and guidance, with a monthly plan, personally tailored to improve as a Triathlete to be race ready.
Due to the hard training sessions, my body feels battered, with niggling injuries, a regular sports massage with Rob aids my recovery.
Highly recommend Focus Fitness
C. S.I thoroughly recommend Rob. He really listened to my problem, then gave me a good, targeted massage to sort it out – spending longer, but only charging me for an hour. He clearly knew his stuff, and gave me a lot of good advice on what else I could do to recover from my hamstring injury. At the end he told me to give it a few weeks and see how it went, so he’s clearly not trying to pressure clients into a whole series of treatments. Oh, and the rooms are nice, clean and well equipped.
C. P.Rob was very friendly and professional, helping me get back into running after an injury. Legs felt so much better after the sports massage and the running advice has helped me understand where I was going wrong as a new runner. Thank you.
C. C.He's really knowledgeable, really experienced and really effective.
I had a calf injury that had stopped my running completely for nearly three weeks. After the first massage from Rob the pain had gone within 12 hours and ill soon be able to train again.
C. H.Rob is a star! He worked his magic on my calf during my London Marathon build up and I was able to run wth no issues and will always go and see him for massages or another other issues that may arise!
Very very well recommended!!
M. T.We had a skills gap in the gym regarding a newly installed Watt bike. Rob at Focus 4 Fitness did an excellent job in delivering a Wattbike fundamentals course to our gym staff to address this. The course was informative, engaging and entertaining, delivered exactly what was needed to up-skill the staff. Highly recommended.

L. L.Getting back into fitness can be daunting when you've been out of it for a while but I needn't have worried! Rob immediately put me at ease, understood what I wanted to achieve and worked with my limited schedule to ensure I could focus on my fitness as well as everything else. 6 weeks in I can already see and feel the difference and I have a routine I can keep up with when I'm travelling and working....no excuses now! I only wish I'd found Focus4Fitness earlier.
J. W.Extremely passionate about fitness and helping people achieve their goals. The studio in Norwich is set out well. Very knowledgeable people. If you are looking for any help in personal fitness or sports therapy give Rob and Loren a call.
b. g.I have found Rob Sears and Focus 4 Fitness to be an extremely professional setup. Rob's skills and knowledge as a sports therapist is of the highest order and has helped me return to competitive sport after a long period of injury.
T. W.Rob helped me with back pain and managed to get me through a series of important fixtures. He was fantastic and managed to get me back playing again. Thanks Rob! Highly, highly reccomend. Tim
J. H.Always nice (I say nice in the loosest sense as it does hurt) to visit Rob and have an hour under his spell. I always feel better when I leave than when I arrived, then the next day I feel ready to take on anything! I do believe in 'No pain no gain' and this is always achieved! But you do get sent away with a mint and a bottle of water as well which is always an added bonus! Well worth a visit I say!
J. T.I had a painful/tight shoulder for around 8 months from flailing around hopelessly in the gym. After 5 massages with tips on stretching and foam rolling and I’d say it’s 90% pain free. Nice bloke with lots of experience. Definitely recommend if you have any niggling aches and pains. Well worth the money.
A. S.Used Rob whilst training for an iron man. The sessions were always a bit different to keep things interesting and he is good at getting you motivated to work out even if it is a 06:15 morning session.
S. A.i learnt so much from Rob in my one hour session with him and I now feel more confident in being able to progress with my aims in running in which I was beginning to feel I was going to have to give up through a series of one injury after another. Would definitely recommend.
M. N.Top Guy, really knows his stuff. Great massages, Rob also provides us with Event massages as all of our Norfolk Cycling Events, Events and he does a wonderful job.
V. E.I had an excellent massage with Rob, just what my body was crying out for. Great service from booking in to post treatment, would thoroughly recommend.
A. R.Solid sports massage. No more pins and needles in my arm and lower back is much looser. I'll definitely visit again when I'm back in Norwich. Thanks bud 😊
D. G.Excellent and highly professional service at a reasonable price.
A. F.Really friendly great support and services
