“I was always put off getting stronger by pseudo-military boot camps aimed at getting me into "that bikini" and gyms with cynical subscriptions and shaming cultures; I felt too old, too female and yet too high in self-esteem to want to enter those spaces. I wanted a body-positive and non-judgemental trainer who knew their stuff.

I love that Guy offers evidence-based workouts that are completely focused on meaningful functional goals for me, like digging my allotment. He also coached me during nine months of pregnancy and I was able to maintain strenth and mobility safely and effectively throughout and never experienced any of the back, hip or pelvic floor issues that are so common perinatally; when I then needed to adapt my training schedule around a baby, he was incredibly flexible.

Guy clearly puts a lot of time into personalising workouts for me and is genuinely curious about how I experience them; he seems to thrive on working around any "stuckness" and is realistic and adaptable so that I can and want to stick with my workouts. I trust him completely. More importantly, I laugh a lot and enjoy his sessions.”
