Testimonials

In 2012 I once again thought it was time to drop a couple of dress sizes I had always been overweight but years of yo-yo dieting and half-hearted gym attempts had left me larger than ever before but had I convinced myself that fat and funny was a good.  Having tried many different diets and exercise classes I thought maybe a personal trainer would be the way forward.  Friends and family rolled their eyes thinking here we go again.  I set about finding a Personal Trainer one that would motivate, support and help me set achievable goals.

Having read many reviews and websites I booked a consultation with Ashley at ADM Personal Training and before long I was training weekly, keeping a food diary and thinking it may be possible to run for 8 minutes.  Within a year I had lost 8 1/2 stone and was running my first half marathon.  I have kept the weight off for 5+ years and still run half marathons. In 2015 I ran the London Marathon and have participated in both Tough Mudder and Spartan races … not bad for the fat girl who only wanted to drop two dress sizes.  I could not have done it without Ashley he has supported and motivated be more than I ever imagined it has been a life changing 5+ years.  He is one of the most knowledgeable fitness professionals I have come across and he can help you achieve your fitness dreams and more.

Life changer – two words that truly describe what Ashley has done for me and my family. He tailored both an exercise and nutritional plan that has helped me to not only lose 6st in weight, body fat and double-digit inches off my waist, but he has helped maintain my new body transformation.
With Ashley’s help, I’ve started playing hockey competitively again and even joined in with Parkruns…. something I thought would never happen.”

After training with two other personal trainers and suffering a serious injury because of their training methods, I wanted to ensure that I picked a trainer carefully.

I contacted Ashley, as he was a Level 4 Master Personal Trainer, which I now appreciate requires him to have an extensive understanding of physiology and anatomy and the ability to be able to apply this to each client’s needs, which isn’t required by most trainers.

Ashley is also a specialist in lower back pain, which is an area in which I have had problems in the past. Thanks to the personal aspect of my training devised by Ashley, this problem has been greatly alleviated. He has always taken my previous injuries into consideration and devised training sessions that were varied and fun.

He is an excellent motivator who continually sets ever more challenging targets. Ashley has given me motivation and encouragement to ‘push the boundaries’. I can honestly say I have never been as toned and trim as I am now.

I have been training with Ashley for over a year for the third time.  He knows how and when to exactly push me to my limits whilst making it enjoyable.  Ashley has listened to what I want to achieve and always tailors the session to match – I would struggle on my own with the motivation and belief to get through what he has me doing.  I always feel brilliant afterwards and look forward to the following week as I am sure you would by committing and signing up with him

I have been training on and off with Ashley since October 2017. My main goal was weight loss but also to get fitter and healthier in the process. Not only has Ashley helped with my exercises in the gym but has also helped me with my food and to maintain a more healthy diet. Although I was never massively over weight I had definitely let myself go and thanks to my training with Ashley I now feel more confident with my body and figure and look forward to seeing what more I can achieve’

Having to travel regularly as part of my job eating healthy and working out is quiet often put on the back burner. After ballooning in 2017, I thought enough is enough.
I contacted Ashley and arranged a consultation, talked about current lifestyle, goals and lifestyle changes. Over the months I have incorporated changes recommended and I think it’s safe to say my lifestyle is completely different.
No two sessions are the same and always challenging. My confidence has grown and my waist has shrunk as well becoming more toned and stronger.
His methods are realistic and effective. I would highly recommend. His education in lower back pain is also a benefit to his clients.
