about mp personal training...

What started the whole journey for me was having my knee repeatedly operated on in my late teens. While in recovery from my final op I decided what I wanted to do with my life...

I wish I was overwhelmed by the help I received during recovery but that wasn’t the case. I felt that I could do better and help people more effectively.

While in recovery and with this goal in mind, I started a distance learning course in gym instruction and started a new job in a gym. Since then I progressed on to studying a level 3 NVQ in personal training and a few other bolt on elements.

Now here we are... the present day, and I’m doing what I love doing... helping people in their quest to meet their personal goals!

Martin made it fun and enjoyable and I always looked forward to going and shouting abuse at him...
