About
I’m Dan, a Level 4 personal trainer based in Frome, Somerset.
Exercise has always been a key part of my life; I was part of the school rugby and athletics teams, which led into a bout of specialising in 5K runs and mud/obstacle runs (spartan races). Throughout all of this, weightlifting and functional training has been a key part of my training. I am a very strong advocate of health and well-being - your health is a lifestyle which consists of both physical and mental elements, so I'll advise you on eating nutritionally and getting your body to function the way it should, all while helping you feel good. Having worked for Nuffield Health in a corporate environment in London, I have dealt with a wide spectrum of abilities and goals and I have learnt from some of the best personal trainers, physios and various specialists in the company. Nuffield Health is THE best health and well-being company in the UK, encompassing the whole holistic approach to improve everyone's physical health, mental health and dietary lifestyle which is the correct approach to getting permanent results that really changes lives.

Testimonials
“Dan was quickly able to identify a number of areas to improve my running style. As a result I have seen great improvements in times and performance.”
“Since training with Dan I have noticed a huge improvement in my fitness levels. I’m constantly pushing the limits of what I think I can do as we’re always working through new exercises and challenges in the gym. His sessions are pretty hard work but they’re good fun and they’ve really paid off!”
“I am 75 and have had a stroke and osteoporosis in the last 4 years. I thought I was reasonably fit before starting training with Dan but after 6 months I now know what fitness really means! When I started I had non existent core muscles, was scared to do back exercises and had recently tripped and broken my wrist. Thanks to Dan's patience, encouragement and the gradual increasing strength of the exercises I now feel extremely fit, am much stronger, have better balance, resilience and stability plus a great deal more energy. My children have all said I look more alive! The benefits from training are huge and I highly recommend training with Dan.”
“I started training with Dan 18 months ago in a bid to improve my general level of fitness after having had 2 children and actively avoiding exercise for most of my life. With Dan’s help I’ve achieved so much more than I thought possible, I’m in far better shape now than I was in my 20s. Dan introduced me to different ways of training and through a lot of patience and encouragement he taught me how to embrace new challenges instead of being afraid to step outside of my comfort zone. I’m amazed at how much I can pull, push and press now, as is my husband!
Dan tailored sessions to my abilities and goals, always taking an old back injury into consideration. Working with Dan has also given me the confidence to train on my own around the PT sessions. My strength and conditioning has significantly improved and I can fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes. Starting PT sessions was the best decision I’ve ever made.”
