Mark has changed my life. He has empowered me to make informed, sustainable and lasting changes to my diet while giving me the tools and confidence to workout effectively. He has transformed the way I eat. I no longer obsess about food. I eat when I'm hungry and stop when I’m full, which has given me more time and freedom to focus on things that truly make me happy. Mark genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. Training with him feels like working out with a best friend you've known for years. Each session is fun, engaging and motivating, making it easy to stay committed. I feel so lucky to have found him and I’d recommend him to anyone looking to take control of their weight, fitness and overall well-being.

I found Mark's details online. I was on a mission to lose weight (yet again) and needed someone to focus and support me. Mark was quick to respond and offered clear and concise information about his role and how he supports people through their weight loss and fitness journey which turned out to be so much more than just the personal training I was originally looking for! After over 20 years of being bombarded with diet culture, attending every 'slimming club' available, completing extensive exercise programmes, and trying to self-navigate my battle with eating disorders, I was feeling completely deflated and lost. Nothing worked. I still gained weight and fell into yo-yo dieting. This is where Mark has transformed my life. I originally expected to be given an exercise programme with 1:1 sessions, but I was offered so much more. After having an in-depth consultation, Mark presented a few different options. Due to my history, we decided that sessions focused on nutrition education with supporting life coaching would be the best route and I can honestly say it has changed my life. Mark is patient, understanding, relatable, supportive, knowledgeable and compassionate. When talking through my history, he showed empathy and patience, allowing me to share my story while supporting me through the entire process. The nutritional education he provided empowered me to make sustainable, achievable lifestyle changes, helping me lose weight and prioritise my health. Through Mark’s personalised plan, I discovered that I didn’t actually need a personal trainer, but rather a journey of support and education, one that has transformed my life and built my confidence in making my own nutrition decisions going forward. This has been the journey I never knew I needed. It’s been emotional, but I’m so grateful Mark has been there for every step of the way.

I can honestly say that working with Mark has been life changing. I have battled with my weight and fitness for as long as I can remember, but with Mark’s support and guidance, I have finally reached my goals and, most importantly, I feel confident that I can sustain them!

The last 16 weeks have been life changing. I met Mark for the first time at 5ft 8, weighing just shy of 100kg, sluggish and constantly being told by my children I was pregnant. It was a vicious circle of junk food, low energy and lots of coffee. From the moment Mark and I had our first Discovery Call to understand me and everything that makes me tick, I knew he would not only show me how to build exercise into my life but, through his nutritional courses, teach me a better way of living with food that comes from a place of experience, having been overweight himself. I also never felt nervous or prejudged for some of the habits I've always known were not good for me, but I could not resist. Fast forward 16 weeks, and I'm honestly a new man and have entirely changed my relationship with food (and my love of weights). My goal when I met Mark was to get to 87kg; I now weigh shy of 82kg and love my new body; I also have an enthusiastic and proactive view of life. It came at the perfect time, as my summers were always filled with cardigans and jumpers on hot sunny days to cover myself up, but I recently got rid of all my XL and large tops and replaced them with smalls. I am a 42-year-old man, and I last wore small tops when I was 11! Thank you so much, Mark. You've honestly changed my life in an enjoyable and long-lasting way.

I’ve been working with Mark online for about 7 months and have lost 20 kilos. When I first started seeing Mark, I was suffering with hip pain and insomnia, as well as being overweight. Within a month, I was sleeping so much better. Mark tailored the programme around my ability and goals and helped me with nutrition education and food advice. I have never felt better. Mark has quite literally changed my life. I feel better, look better, sleep better and most importantly, I'm healthier. Mark's tailored programmes and personality are what made this possible. His approach is unique, highly individualistic and challenged me just the right amount to make the results I’ve achieved sustainable. He’s also a genuinely nice guy. Contact him. It will be one of the best things you ever do for yourself.

It’s really difficult to put into words the profound impact that working with Mark has had on my life. After years of work and family pressures dominating my routine, I had become overweight with terrible eating and drinking habits and zero motivation to train or make a change. Every time I tried, it hurt because I was so out of shape, and my poor diet meant no amount of training was going to fix my weight anyway. Mark was recommended to me by a friend, and after two consultations, it was clear he was different from the rest of the PT community. He took the time to truly understand me—my mentality, my drivers, my likes and dislikes, and factored all of them into my coaching programme. If I’m honest, at that point, I was still sceptical about what he could do for me that I couldn’t do for myself. But I’m so glad I stuck with it and committed to four months of coaching with Mark. I still don’t know how he’s done it, but his unique mix of coaching, technical training expertise, emotional support, nutrition advice and direct feedback has been everything I needed… and more. He’s helped me see the bigger picture, focusing on long-term success rather than short-term fixes and has given me coping strategies for my personal fitness and dietary challenges. Fast forward four months, and I’m three stone lighter. I’m back to enjoying running and cycling, and I’ve even started to like weights and the gym again (which I used to hate!). My blood pressure is back to normal, and even my smallest clothes are now baggy. In summary, committing to coaching with Mark has truly changed my life. It was the first step in shedding the weight that was making me mentally miserable and physically holding me back. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

I completed the 16-week Sustainable Change Coaching Programme with Mark, and it truly does what it says on the tin! I’ve lost 2 stone since working with him which is more than I ever dreamed of. Mark’s approach is unique and highly personalised. At first, I was sceptical about how one person could be so skilled as a personal trainer, nutritionist and ‘life coach’. I was very open with Mark about this before signing up and he took the time to explain how combining all three is what delivers real, lasting results, especially where clients really committed to the process and were open and transparent with him. So I signed up, and it turned out to be the most transformational investment in myself I’ve ever made. Here’s how it worked for me: ✔ Nutrition Coaching – Mark helped me understand nutrition fundamentals that I’d never learned growing up. With his guidance and support, I felt empowered to make informed choices, even when eating out. He even helped me review menus to find the best options. The result? I came back from a week-long all-inclusive holiday 2lbs lighter, just by making smarter choices with food and drink. ✔ Online Personal Training – Mark made me fall back in love with weightlifting. The variety of workouts he provides through his training app keeps things engaging and having him on hand during virtual sessions ensures I lift safely and effectively. ✔ Life Coaching – This was the part I was most sceptical about, but I now believe it had the biggest impact. Our sessions made me realise my relationship with food, exercise and work was completely unbalanced. Mark helped me shift my mindset and I now prioritise my health in a way that feels sustainable and natural. The final, and most important thing to say is what an incredibly genuine and supportive coach Mark is. He understands that any health and weight loss journey happen alongside real-life pressures. But through it all, he’s in your corner, celebrating your wins and supporting you through setbacks. Thanks for everything Mark

With Mark, I’ve experienced expert-level, judgment-free nutrition and training for the first time in my life. I’m Isa, and I’ve struggled with food, weight and exercise my entire life. After working with three different personal trainers, I only felt more inadequate, like I didn’t fit the mould. Then I found Mark online. With Mark, I learned that the mould was inadequate, not me. He understood where I was coming from right away and designed a personalised approach that changed my life. He taught me how to develop the essential nutrition and movement skills I never had growing up. But the key ingredient was his unwavering support as I built new, sustainable habits. Mark, I’ll be eternally grateful to you. Thank you for being such an outstanding human being.

I started my journey with Mark eight months ago, after spending 10 years massively overweight at 19 stone. In that time, I worked with four different personal trainers but saw little to no success. The most I ever lost was 10kg (24lbs). Then I found Mark. Through his nutrition coaching and customised exercise plans, I lost 5 stone (72lbs/32kg) in just six months, and I’ve never felt better. I’m stronger, fitter and lighter than ever before. What makes Mark different is that he’s been through this journey himself. He truly understands the struggles and tailors your plan to exactly what you need, when you need it. His support and motivation kept me on track, even during the tough moments. All his guidance was easy to fit around my lifestyle and I started seeing real results in weeks, not months. If you’re sitting there thinking "I need to do something about my weight" or "I need to get fit," reach out to Mark. You’ll be thankful you did. I was that person, struggling with confidence, depressed about my weight. Now? I’ve turned the corner and I’m never looking back. Mark is more than just a coach. He’s changed my life, my attitude toward fitness and my relationship with food. I now consider him a friend and I can’t thank him enough for everything he’s done!

Mark isn’t just a regular PT or coach, he goes beyond, taking the time to actively listen to your individual needs and goals. From the start, our thorough consultation covered my goals, timeline and schedule and together, we built a 16-week plan that included: Weekly online 1:1 training, a regularly updated and tailored workout plan, nutritional education, recipes & weekly food diary feedback as well as ongoing catch-up calls to keep me accountable and answer questions. As my confidence grew, Mark pushed me to my limits, helping me realise what I was truly capable of, while always making me feel safe. That balance is rare in a coach. Beyond his knowledge, professionalism and guidance, he brings a good sense of humour, making the entire experience genuinely enjoyable. Now, I feel healthier, stronger and more in control with a mindset that allows me to prioritise myself while balancing other areas of my life. I highly recommend Mark to anyone serious about making a real, lasting change!

Mark has changed my life. No other trainer has taken such a personalised approach or genuinely invested the time to help me reach my goals like he has. I always hated going to the gym. I had fitness goals but lacked the tools and knowledge to achieve them. Mark’s tailored programme, combined with his ongoing support, has empowered me to make sustainable, long-lasting changes to my diet and given me the confidence to train effectively. Even though we only had one virtual PT session per week, Mark provided regular check-ins to track my progress and adjust my programme when needed. He was always on hand via WhatsApp for any questions, which made a huge difference. Now, I love going to the gym because I actually know what I’m doing! Even more exciting, my physical transformation has been next level, far beyond what I expected in just 12 weeks. Not only do I have the body I wanted, but I now have the knowledge and confidence to continue on my own. I’d recommend Mark to anyone looking for real, lasting results!

Over 16 weeks, I not only reached my goal weight but also enjoyed the journey which is something I never expected. It was fun, educational and I’ve been left with the tools to maintain the body and health I want for life. Mark was there for me every step of the way, providing unmatched support throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to transform their lifestyle, whether the change is big or small. Thank you Mark, for everything!
