Personal Training

Testimonials

“After breastfeeding my son for 12 months, my back and shoulders were in bits, as a mother of two under three, I was struggling to find time by or motivation to do any form of exercise. When a friend shared Cathy’s new businesses I dropped her message the same day about starting training with her, and I haven’t looked back since.

Cathy asked me to think about my goals. I wanted to work towards a stronger core, to feel fitter, and to feel my clothes fitter better.

After the first six weeks I have already started to achieve some of my goal. I have just started my second 6 week one to one personal training programme with Cathy, and I’m loving it.

After our sessions I feel like I’ve had a proper work out, each session is slightly different so it keeps it interesting. She provides detailed homework and lots of lovely recipes each week. I personally wouldn’t have the confidence or knowledge to go to gym and train on my own. I feel completely comfortable and at ease with Cathy, and can’t recommend her enough.”

“I have thoroughly enjoyed my 1-1 sessions with Cathy! Over the last six weeks I have begun to feel better in body and spirit. Following gently advice and recipes from Cathy, I managed to address many of my bad dietary habits, without obsessing over it. This wasn’t compulsory but rather a goal I set myself, aided by Cathy’s expertise. Alongside tweaking my diet,

I enjoyed the strength training immensely. I hate high impact cardio, like aerobics and running, and used to think this was the only way to get fit and lose weight. Over the six weeks with Cathy, focussing on whole body strength workouts, I have learnt that I can tone and lose weight in a different way!

It’s still wonderfully challenging and often hard work - but in a way that suits me! I have felt stronger and happier - a return to feeling like my ‘old self’ after kids (and grandkids!). Taking time for myself was just as important as trimming off some weight.”

“A 9 hour day sat at a desk and some days an additional 4 hour round commute sat in the car took its toll on my health. I also had issues with my neck, (a 20yr old, niggling injury), so I was nervous of doing anything strenuous and wrongly I avoided exercise. After pretty much a decade of that nonsense I found myself with very little upper body strength, no muscle tone and no energy, so I decided to make a few lifestyle changes… I left my job in Bristol and searched around for a personal trainer!

I joined Cathy’s one to one sessions (twice a week), for whole body strength training, alongside this I gradually built up to a 5K jog, which I did once a week. In just 10 weeks I had lost 2.5 inches off my waist and 4lbs in weight… pretty chuffed with that! I’ve now reached 6 months and I have lost a total of 10lb, 3 inches off my waist and gained muscle definition. My BMI reduced from 24.4 to 22.6 and my body fat has reduced from 37% to 34%. I feel so much stronger and healthier, I’ve even had sessions where I haven’t worried about my neck injury.

I recently swapped the weekly jog for Cathy’s Power Hour on Saturday mornings, this I totally recommend - it’s so much more enjoyable than running AND everyone is super friendly. I really can’t recommend ‘All Women Health & Fitness’ highly enough…

Thank you Cath, you’ve done wonders!”
