Creating positive change through the power of movement

I’ve been a Personal Trainer in Exeter since 2014. I believe that exercise and movement is a fundamental pursuit to maintain good mental health and wellbeing. I coach people towards more enriching, productive and fulfilling lives, using exercise as an imperative tool in creating positive behaviour change

I started working with Joe once a week earlier this year to help me get back into a routine of exercise and get myself out of an episode of depression. He understands my context and needs, and I feel he's absolutely on my side. I used to exercise a lot years ago but never anything gym-based, and was well out of my comfort zone, but Joe's made it an enjoyable experience. Sometimes it's even fun!

Joe’s thoughtful, personalised approach has been really helpful for me to enjoy exercising again. He has provided a carefully structured plan that suits my lifestyle with just the right amount of challenge. I am fitter and looking forward to competing in events in the coming year.

I’ve been working with Joe for nutrition coaching since January, after my husband started with him in November and it has been life changing. I’ve struggled with certain eating habits for years. I’d tried to make changes so many times, but I’d always fall back into old patterns after a few weeks. When I started with Joe, I told him I wanted to reach a point where 'old lady me' could look back and be thankful to 'now me' for looking after myself. Joe’s approach is rooted in real coaching experience rather than general PT advice and has worked perfectly for me. The regular support and having someone other than myself to be accountable to has made such a big difference. We’ve also gradually added some exercise into my routine in a way that really suits me, and now I feel in control of my eating, fitter, healthier, and mentally in such a good place. And while I’ll leave my husband to write his own review, I will add that, thanks to Joe, he’s in the best place physically and mentally that he’s been in for over 10 years, which has been amazing to see! I honestly can’t recommend Joe highly enough.

I've been training with Joe for the best part of a year now and it's been brilliant. He's a really knowledgeable personal trainer and I've made really great progress with him via our weekly and then twice weekly sessions. Joe's PT sessions focus on different muscle groups each week and use all kinds of equipment (or no equipment) so every session is different and fun. Joe has provided nutritional advice (to the extent that I've lost over 15% of my bodyweight and am heading towards a healthy weight for the first time in about 10 years), including macro recommendations and a weekly weigh in. Finally, he's also now started a weekly Thursday evening running club - which is a lot of fun! Highly recommend!

I've been training with Joe for a couple of years now. I'd highly recommend him as trainer - he's emotionally intelligent and extremely good at working out how to motivate his clients. As a result sessions with him are always really enjoyable, even when they're really hard work!

I’ve been working with Joe for 8 months, and it’s the first time ever that I have managed to stick to regular sustained exercise. I’ve lost weight and can feel my strength increasing. I would definitely recommend Joe to help get you on track with your fitness, and maintain the positive changes!

I've been training with Joe every week for ten years so I can highly recommend. That is probably quite a good sign that I enjoy it! Each session is thoughtful, positively challenging and uplifting.

Joe is an amazing trainer! He is so patient and encouraging which really helps to make you feel comfortable and actually excited about your fitness journey! I have never stuck with a program for longer than a month or two but I’ve been with Joe for 6 months now and am loving my progress!

Joe has catalysed a huge change in my life - helping me to adopt a smarter and more realistic attitude to health and fitness. Most significantly helping me to achieve consistency which I've never had before, despite two decades of trying. Joe has always listened when I've felt I needed to tweak or adjust around a busy lifestyle and as a dad himself he always shows kindness and understanding around how to do all this amidst the madness of parenthood and work! I can't recommend him highly enough

I'm in my 40s and needed to turn my health and habits around. In terms of goals Joe has been both frank and supportive which is appreciated. In terms of the gym work he has ensured I condition to weight training with minimal injury risk. Highly recommend
