I was a newcomer to gym and strength training and did come to this with some hesitancy. I have found working with Tom to be so enjoyable, and that initial hesitancy is long gone. In a few sessions I feel stronger, fitter, and more robust. I look forward to the work outs, which is not something I thought I would ever say!
He makes it easy and integrates the workouts into your life rather than the other way round, and is completely supportive of what you are able to do. I really appreciate the workouts he creates for you to do in your time, and how he pushes you to do better without making it feel impossible. Your progress is tracked, so you can see your improvements which I really value.
So, if you are looking for a thoughtful, personable, and highly supportive personal trainer then Tom is your man.
