Where I train

Training that comes to you

Sessions happen wherever they work best for you. Whichever you choose, you get a complete fitness and nutrition package built around your needs.

At home

If getting out is difficult, I come to you. We focus on the everyday movements you rely on, like getting up from a chair, managing the stairs and walking with confidence.

In care homes

Individual and group sessions for residents. Seated and standing exercises, ball games and balance work keep people mobile, sociable and independent.

In the gym

Where it's appropriate, I come to the gym with you, showing you how to use the equipment safely and building your strength and confidence.

Online

Online coaching and check-ins keep you on track between sessions, or support you entirely remotely if that suits you better.

Case studies

Real people, real independence

Stood up unaided for the first time in over 20 years

Mrs Redstone

Mrs Redstone lives with advanced Parkinson's disease. After more than twenty years of tremors and relying on mobility aids, she had lost her independence and depended on carers, family, friends and the wardens in her supported living accommodation.

Over several months of regular functional exercise designed around her needs, she worked on everyday tasks: getting around the kitchen unaided, sitting down and standing up by herself, and going out alone with the confidence that she wouldn't fall. Watching her stand up unaided for the first time in over twenty years was a brilliant moment.

Walked 0.75 miles unaided after knee surgery

Jag

Jag came to me to regain his independence and rehabilitate his knee after an operation, having lost the ability to walk unaided.

Over six months we reversed the frailty and loss of strength he'd experienced since the operation. He went on to walk more than 0.75 miles unaided: no stick, no rollator, no cane, just his own two legs.

About Andrew

Getting results since 2015

I specialise in mobility and strength exercise for older and disabled people, and in weight management. I've worked with several care homes and gyms, and helped hundreds of people regain their strength and independence, reverse frailty and improve their relationship with food.

I'm a Level 3 GP Referral Specialist and Level 4 Personal Trainer with an RSPH Level 4 nutrition qualification, and I hold bachelor's and master's degrees in related fields. I'm a regular guest on BBC Radio Leicester, giving advice and guidance on fitness.

I also founded AltSport, Leicester Active CIC and FatProject, which tackle poor self-esteem and food poverty and create opportunities for children and adults to get active. I work closely with healthcare professionals, nutrition therapists, counsellors and massage therapists, so your care is joined up.

How I work

The path to lasting success

Customised exercise

Every programme is built around you, whether that's improving your balance or building the strength to get yourself up if you fall.

Nutrition planning

As an RSPH Level 4 nutrition-qualified trainer, I know good nutrition is key to managing your weight and staying independent.

Motivation & support

Accountability and ongoing coaching make progress last. You're not doing this alone: you get support between sessions too.

Ongoing education

I teach you along the way, so you can keep your progress going even without me. That's key to staying independent.

More than fitness coaching

A good personal trainer does much more than set exercises. Alongside teaching you to exercise safely, I'm your motivator, habit builder and cheerleader: encouraging you when it's hard, celebrating when you reach your goals and keeping you accountable when things slip.
