For most people, losing some weight is the target. For others wanting to feel stronger is their goal. There is no reason why you can't achieve both. ⚓
Swallow the Anchor has all the experience and resources at hand. Working 1-2-1 in a private gym, with no onlookers to feel anxious about.
My goal as a Personal Trainer is to help you have fun in a gym environment and to start feeling passionate about moving your body and working out.
As a result, weight loss, strength and improved fitness will all come in time. Confidence will develop and you'll suddenly feel a new zest for life!
You may want to look and feel good for that holiday that's booked in or want to get in shape for your big wedding day. Alternatively, you may want to lose weight and be a good role model for your kids or be fit enough to enjoy playing with them without feeling so tired.
Drop me a line to book yourself in for a FREE consultation. I'll put the kettle on and we can sit down to discuss your fitness needs and what you want to achieve.
I'll also give you a good look around the STA gym so you feel comfortable with the location and equipment you'll be using.
We all have are reasons for wanting to look and feel good about ourselves. Allow me to help you get into the best possible shape you can. 👍

Total Body 60 is the complete health and fitness package designed to help fast track you into the best possible shape imaginable. ⚓
Each one hour session is separated into two parts; the first part uses resistance training to help you grow stronger. The second part is a tailored, total body conditioning HIIT workout designed to target your fat reserves and improve your fitness levels.
I'll advise on good nutrition and once a month you'll receive a weigh-in, blood pressure check-up and fitness test to make sure you're heading in the right direction.
It's time for 'TB60'. 👍

Habit-stack your routine. Attach a new healthy habit to an existing one—like doing 10 calf raises while waiting for the kettle to boil or stretching while watching TV.
