Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions answered
Thinking about personal training or nutrition coaching? Here you'll find answers to some common questions about how I work and what to expect. If there's anything else you'd like to know, just get in touch.
Where do you provide personal training?
I provide mobile personal training in Burton-on-Trent, Swadlincote, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Tamworth and surrounding areas. I come to your home or another suitable agreed location and bring all the equipment needed for your session.
Do I need to be fit or have experience?
Absolutely not. Whether you're a complete beginner or returning to exercise after a break, your training is tailored to your ability, confidence, goals and lifestyle.
What happens during my free consultation?
Your free consultation is an opportunity to talk about your goals, your current routine and what you'd like to achieve. We'll discuss your exercise experience, lifestyle and the support you're looking for, then explore which of my training options might suit you best. There's no obligation to sign up.
Do I need my own equipment?
No! I bring the equipment needed for your workout. You just need enough suitable space to train, comfortable clothing, and a willingness to give it your best.
What's included in personal training?
Every personal training package is tailored to your goals, fitness level and lifestyle. Sessions are designed around you and may include strength training, cardiovascular exercise, kettlebells, suspension training and pad work, depending on your goals and preferences.
You'll also receive nutrition coaching to help you understand your eating habits, make informed food choices and build sustainable habits that support your progress — without restrictive diets or prescribed meal plans.
Your package includes access to my coaching app, where you can view your workouts, track your progress and stay on top of your training between sessions.
We'll work together to build your strength, improve your fitness and confidence, and make progress towards your goals with ongoing support and guidance.
Do you offer nutrition coaching?
Yes! Nutrition coaching is included with my personal training packages. I'll help you understand the basics of nutrition, develop sustainable habits and make informed choices that support your goals. My approach is about education and long-term changes, rather than restrictive diets or prescribed meal plans.
What types of personal training do you offer?
I offer mobile personal training in your home or another suitable location, online personal training with live coaching, and app-based personal training for those who prefer to follow their own personalised programme. Each option offers a different level of support, so you can choose what best suits your goals, lifestyle and budget.
Can I train with a partner or friend?
Yes! You can train alongside a partner or friend, making sessions a shared experience. Training together can be a great way to stay motivated, and sessions will be adapted to suit your individual abilities and goals. Shared sessions are available at different prices from one-to-one personal training.
Can you help me lose body fat or build muscle?
Absolutely. Whether your goal is to lose body fat, build muscle, improve your strength or increase your fitness, we'll work together to create an approach suited to your goals and starting point. I'll also help you understand how nutrition, everyday habits and consistency can support your progress, without relying on extreme diets or quick fixes.
How often should I have personal training sessions?
This depends on your goals, availability and budget. Some clients train once a week, while others prefer two or more sessions. During your free consultation, we'll discuss what you're looking to achieve and find a realistic training frequency that fits your lifestyle.
What happens if I need to cancel or rearrange a session?
I ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or rearrange a personal training session. This helps me manage my schedule and offer the time to another client where possible. If something unexpected happens, please get in touch as soon as you can so we can discuss the options.
My full cancellation policy will be provided for you to read and agree to before you begin training.
