What my clients Are Saying

"I turned to Bysshe after stopping sport and feeling lost with my gym goals. He really listened and helped me find direction and purpose. My programme was updated weekly, my confidence and technique improved massively, and his attention to detail was incredible. Even with injuries, he found solutions and kept me motivated. Bysshe is hands down one of the most humble, kind, and intuitive trainers I’ve met — the GOAT."

"Bysshe is awesome. I’ve been training with him for around 5 years. He’s kind, caring, and knows when to push and when to ease off. I’m nearly 61 and stronger than I’ve ever been — even seeing some definition, which I love! He knows his stuff and always answers my questions thoroughly. 5 stars every time!"

— linda

“Bysshe is always motivating and encouraging with improving my strength and fitness. Jokes are on point and the check ins between sessions make going to the gym worth it. The advice around injury and recovery is A+.”
