Success Stories

The following comments are all taken from people who have either attended my bootcamp classes or I have worked with on a 1-to-1 basis. These are genuine people and their comments can be verified.

“The group classes are really enjoyable and I’m now actually looking forward to exercising. After attending 10 classes and following the recommended nutrition plan, I’ve lost 9lbs, which is well on the way to achieving my goal.”
Julia, Whitley Bay.

“Paul makes the sessions really enjoyable. He constantly encourages you and gets the best out of you. Even when it is cold, working outside to get fit is so much better than a stuffy gym. I crawl out of work on a Monday but after the session, I feel energised.”
Judith, Wallsend.

“I just wanted to say how much I am enjoying your class at Rowlands Gill Park, I never thought that I would enjoy exercise but you make the class so enjoyable and fun, I actually look forward to your class. See you next week.”
Zoe, Rowlands Gill. 

“I was determined to get fit and lose some weight but didn’t have the motivation to go to the gym. I wanted to do something a bit different, so I looked into Boot Camp sessions and found Paul. I signed up for the early morning sessions because I’m always too tired and too de-motivated to go after work. Although I joined in the depth of winter, once I am up and at the park, doing a workout so early in the morning is so refreshing and starts the day so well! It makes me motivated and on a high for the rest of the day. The workout is different every time, even if you go to more than one session a week which is great as it doesn’t get stale. Paul is a great trainer and doesn’t shout at you but pushes you to make sure you’re getting the most out of the workout. I’m loving it and have already recommended it to others!”
Suzanne, Gateshead.

“I signed up for 10 bootcamp sessions to see if I could lose a few pounds and tone up as my regular gym routine was not giving me the results I wanted. Paul is really friendly and makes sure that the sessions are always different and challenging, although you work to your own fitness level so there’s no need to be worried about keeping up with other people. Everyone at the classes is really friendly and we have all kept each other going through the harder exercises. I feel a great sense of achievement as I have lost 8lbs over the 5 weeks and I can really feel the difference in my fitness and strength. I have enjoyed learning new exercises and working out in the great outdoors come (a little bit of) rain or shine so much so that I’ve now signed up for another 10 classes!”
Becky, YHN.

“The workouts have made an enormous difference to my fitness. I have toned up and lost weight. Clothes from a previous life now fit! I cannot recommend it enough, each class is fun, and exercises are done at your own pace. The classes are a weekly necessity as they keep me fit, happy and toned.”
Julie, Newcastle.

“I joined Boot Camp to help me drop a dress size for my holiday. Paul encourages individuals to work at their own pace, though ensures that individuals push themselves a little harder each week to increase their fitness levels. Paul brings a variety of equipment with him each week which can include kettlebells, medicine balls, skipping ropes, etc. The constant variety of exercise and the results keep me coming back for more. Although I did not lose weight, I did lose inches and toned up in time for my holiday.”
Julie, Low Fell.

“Paul is full of enthusiasm, a good motivator, and a pleasure to do bootcamps with, loads of different training which never bores.”
Tracie, Newcastle.

“I go to Paul’s Tuesday night bootcamps and would recommend them for anyone looking for a fun but challenging fitness session. The sessions are different every week so you never get bored doing the same routine all the time. The sessions are versatile allowing you to work at your own pace and are therefore suitable for all fitness levels. Paul is a very friendly and approachable guy.”
Gemma, Beamish.

“Paul is a true professional who really knows and is fully committed to his subject. He works at an individuals pace to meet their needs and goals. He is always encouraging, flexible and supportive.”
Helen, Sunniside.
