First Rate Fitness

Hands down one of the most passionate, hard working guys I know. He sets everything up to challenge you every session but makes it fun enough to keep wanting to come back. I can't recommend him enough! He always listens to concerns and does not only focus on your physical wellbeing but mental too. This personal trainer is simply a superman in disguise!!

I have been using Stephan as a personal trainer since September 2019. I am an older client in my 50's and whilst in the past I used the gym a lot I had in recent years stopped going to a gym and had put on a lot of weight. I needed the motivation and support to get back into good fitness once I took the plunge to return to using a gym on a regular basis, and also to help me to reach my goals of weight loss and better health and well being. Stephan is very professional in his approach. He enthuses and encourages and also challenges and motivates the individual and ensures that you stay on track, but all is done professionally and with great sensitivity to the persons experience and abilities. His approach to working out makes working out with him fun and also informative. He has a wide experience of personal training for clients from a variety of ages and levels of fitness. I continue to enjoy my weekly sessions with him and he has taught me a great deal. If I was to sum up his approach I would say Stephan listens firstly to the individual to see what they need and want, then he looks at the person, their lifestyle and the amount of time they can commit too and then he works out a tailor made programme specifically to help that individual meet their own personal goals. You are always treated as an individual by him and with great courtesy and kindness. Stephan gently motivates you to do your best and to meet new challenges and goals of fitness and well being. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a very professional personal trainer, with great skill and knowledge and with excellent interpersonal skills.

I have been having bi-weekly personal training sessions with Stephan now for around 2 months. Before training with Stephan, I would sign up to a gym, feel completely out of my depth and unmotivated then end up not sticking to the gym as a result. This is something that I have been doing for several years. Since I have been working with Stephan I finally feel like I'm enjoying the gym, and I'm making the process I have always wanted to achieve. I feel like I'm learning loads and my motivation is at an all time high. This is largely because of Stephan and his commitment and dedication to the people he trains. I finally feel that with a lot of hard work and Stephan's help I'm going to reach my goals. I would recommend Stephan to anyone regardless of their previous gym experience.

Stefan is a excellent personal coach/trainer. He is always helpful and very enthusiastic and ensures that he finds a way for me to carry out exercises that I could not even think about in the past. He really has helped shape my health - thank you so very much, wishing you seasons greetings!! 👍🏻

After never having a sports massage before I was feeling slightly nervous as I didn’t know what to expect. However Stephan instantly made me feel at ease and talked me through exactly what he was going to do to help my problem areas. He’s honest, thorough and very professional. After only one session I am already feeling the benefits of his work. Highly recommend!
