Hi I'm Andrew,

I'm the MD and head trainer at Designer Fitness.

Having always had a keen interest in fitness, I decided to take it one step further and make it my full time career!

I graduated with Premier Training at UCL, gaining a Diploma in Fitness Training and Sports Therapy. As well as gaining scientific knowledge in this area I've attended numerous work shops where I've learnt additional techniques.

I immediately scored a career with David Lloyds, one of the best health clubs in the country, where I concentrated specifically on personal training.

I became one of their top trainers. From there I moved to Fitness First where I set up my own fitness company, and thus Designer Fitness was born!

After a long successful run with Fitness First I realized the huge demand for personal training and a scarce gap in the market, I decided to take Designer Fitness solo and concentrate on home visits.

I recognised that people are now leading very busy lives, working longer and harder hours and they don't always have time for traveling to and from a gym. This is where Designer Fitness really comes in to its own, with training sessions to suit clients wherever and whenever they choose.

Using the Designer Fitness Training Principles, clients are able to achieve the maximum results from their programmes and really see results for all their efforts. Not only are the sessions effective, efficient and affordable but most importantly I place a lot of emphasis on fun!!

Seven years on Designer Fitness boasts a long list of happy satisfied and very fit customers.

Hi my name is Jonathan and I am a trainer with 'Designer Fitness'.

I qualified as a fitness trainer in 2002, after graduating with Premier Training.

However, my interest in physical fitness started years earlier when, age 16, my brother Andrew (MD of Designer Fitness) gave me my first set of dumbbells and began teaching me how to sculpt my body. Qualifying with Premier Training gave me invaluable knowledge and techniques and meant I gained a recognizable qualification which I could use to help other people.

I joined Designer Fitness after seeing the huge demand for people wanting to get into shape, but not having the time or motivation to do so.

Working 1 to1 means I can help people achieve exactly what they want, fitting in around their lifestyles.

My approach to training clients strongly involves using 'Bio-mechanics' i.e. by looking at the clients posture, one can assess 'incorrect postural habits' for example a desk worker.

Being mobile with Designer Fitness means I can offer clients effective training techniques where ever it suits them - be it in their home, garden, park or gym .
