After a diagnosis of Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Anxiety in August 2019 I plummeted into quite a dark place. I felt like I was wearing a big sign on my head telling everyone about my mental health problems. It took me a while to take it in and work out how I wanted to try to manage it in a way that was best for me! I enlisted myself for some counselling and I started to talk to Craig about doing some fitness training. My thinking was if I was to feel better I needed to work on me as a whole, there was no point sorting out my thinking if I still was seeing the same image in the mirror! My husband and I started to work with Craig doing some private sessions (I was too anxious to just go to a gym) I soon started to see my body change shape, I was right, it was working, the counselling and my gym work were both starting to help me see my body differently. Craig was such a big help, he saw my anxiety, he was patient and very understanding also he was very supportive. The support Craig gave me kept me going on some days, he helped me believe in myself. Although I had (have) a lot of support from friends and family it felt so important to have it from my gym instructor, it kept me going, I felt he really believed in me! So a year after embarking on my first gym session with Craig, I’m in a much better place, I’m more confident, I’m stronger physically and mentally, I’m fitter, I weigh less and I’m at least 2 dress sizes smaller but most of all it’s reduced my anxiety! I will always have to work on being well mentally but having the tools and knowing how to use them really helps!!

I honestly couldn’t recommend a better PT! Craig has helped me lose the weight I wanted and gain my confidence back. He is the best, he’s very professional and pushes you to do your best in every session. I train on a one to one basis once a week and also attend his group workouts weekly. Thanks for everything.

Amazing!!! Having known Craig a couple of years I started group training with him once a week – Following a bad knee injury (Meniscus) in July I contacted Craig to arrange some one on one sessions in attempt to return to football – After over 6 months out and multiple sessions I am back playing and fully recovered! I have Craig to thank for this, not only with the PT sessions but the daily motivation and personalised workout routines on the App!! Would highly recommend to anyone with an injury or in need of a fantastic PT!!

I’ve been training with Craig for a few months – noticed a huge difference physically and in my fitness! Great guy, good at what he does, gets the results you want! Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend Craig enough! Me & my partner did an 8 week challenge, each having a goal in mind for Florida. We told him what we wanted to achieve and Craig made it possible. Having easy access to our workout plan via the app is an excellent idea and no fuss whatsoever. We were both in contact with Craig once a week to catch up and see how things were going, not to mention that we were able to contact him if we had any problems/questions. Now we are back from Florida there is no doubt that we will be using him again. Thank-you so much.

Craig and I have worked together with numerous individuals with varying disabilities, including complex acquired brain injuries. His ability to build a positive therapeutic relationship is flawless, he has an uncanny knack of aligning himself on the person’s wave length, which ultimately means they are engaged and invested in the sessions. Craig is flexible in his approach and endeavours to work in line with his clients strengths and weaknesses. He is well versed with working within an MDT and has excellent clinical knowledge. 

Craig has become an invaluable member of the Heads Up Therapies team and runs our ABI football group, all the members have the upmost respect for him and thoroughly enjoy his sessions. 

I have known and worked with Craig for a number of years now, both in a personal and professional capacity, as a Personal Trainer, Occupational Therapy Assistant and Football Coach, and would have no hesitation in recommending him for any clients. He is a brilliant Personal Trainer and an asset to any client or team. 

Well, what can I say about training with Craig. He has helped change so many aspects of my life, the most obvious being weight loss. He has helped me lose build muscle whilst losing fat.  The other parts that people don’t see is how the training has helped my mental health – my mind is clearer and more positive. This is down to the training but also down to how easy it is to work with Craig and be able to talk to him. Thanks Craig!

I started working with Craig after Christmas and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I’m losing weight, I’m changing my relationship with food and I’m completely in love with Craig’s plan. When I started I explained how much I hate exercising and he made sure the plan was really easy and gradually increased in difficulty. I can now deadlift 70kg on a good day and with Craig’s positive encouragement and expertise I’m the healthiest I’ve been in years. Thank you so much Craig. 

I began training with Craig 6 months ago as I was unhappy with my post-baby body and general poor fitness levels. Craig designed a programme to meet my personal goals that works around my job and family commitments. He is very supportive if things things get in the way, and we work together to get back on track quickly. I am so pleased with the progress we have made and I always look forward to working out now.

I first met Craig when he was recommended to me by my case manager. I was involved in a road accident at the start of 2021, my injuries consisted of a fractured spine, broken pelvis, punctured lung and 5 fractured ribs. I was not allowed to put any weight on my legs for 12 weeks, and I had 2 steel rods inserted into my back to stabilise my spine, and as well my pelvis was being held in place by screws.

Craig came to my home in December of 2022 and did an initial assessment of me, to determine what would be the best course of action to take in helping with my recovery. Since then I have usually seen Craig on a twice weekly basis and we have concentrated on my core strength and my stamina. These have massively improved under Craig’s expertise.

His professionalism, his knowledge of the subject and his friendly approach have shone through, to a point were I am in a better physical shape then I have been for years. I would recommend Craig to anyone who has had life changing injuries and is looking for a personal trainer who is motivating, caring, and has only the best interests of his clients at heart.
