When I started training with Neil I was 16st 9lbs and I thought I knew what to do it the gym. Surely it's just a case of lifting weights and getting results? I soon realised that it wasn't - nothing changed despite the hours I put in on the x-trainer or running machines. I scoured the internet and came across so many contradictory articles offering me the best advice and it just confused the life out of me - should I do a split routine or full body, how many reps or sets, what about supersets and training to failure?!! Then I found Neil via the Men's health website and having seen the advice he shared, I decided to sign up for 20 sessions.

It was definitely the right thing to do. I left all my previous 'knowledge' at the door, and soon I found myself really getting into the training, learning the correct techniques and eating habits from Neil that have remained with me to this day. I'm now around 12st 7lbs and I feel like a different person. People don't recognise me now and my asthma is very mild now compared to what it used to be like. The training habits and techniques I have learned from Neil are simple - no need for complicated excel spreadsheets tracking what food I'm eating or how many reps I've done. I can't recommend him enough.

All personal trainers are NOT equal - some know their stuff, others just try silly exercises moves on you. Neil teaches you what you need to know to get in proper shape.
