"I cannot recommend John enough! My partner and I have recently started a weekly
couples PT session from home. With exercise being a massive change for
us, John has been absolutely brilliant creating us our own specific and personal
training regime. Great value for money from an extremely knowledgeable
professional. 100% recommend."

"I have been training with John for three months now. In this short space of time I have learnt and gained so much from doing so . I have a better understanding about my training and how my body works, which also
goes hand in hand with my diet. John always supports me and makes me realise my goals are achievable and
pushes me to my full potential.
I love training with John , no session is the same and my results have been
exceptional.
​
Some of the things I’m doing and the weights I’m lifting has truly amazed me. I couldn’t do this without John’s fantastic
Work effect. f you want to work hard and achieve your own personal goals , I’d highly recommend John."

"I came back last summer determined as John was always sending me messages and calling to guide
me push me. We came up with a plan to lose the weight, but this time with an end goal. We have lost all the weight in under a year and have started to build my muscle which is something I can focus on forever now!
What I am trying to say is John has been by my side for nearly 6 years supporting me guiding me. The workouts are fantastic never the same, always changing to suit my needs. When I was losing weight the food plans are brilliant, they are all headed up on paper that you can stick on the fridge so it there in front of you."
Claire's Testimonial
"I’ve had years of issues with my shoulder and hip, I’ve tried numerous sports massages but with not much relief. John has now given me a few massages and since then my shoulder has been so much better - such a relief after so long suffering. John talks you through the muscles and potential issues, it’s very clear that he is very knowledgeable about the human body and would highly recommend his massages."
"I see John twice a week for PT sessions and am really enjoying the workouts. John pre plans all sessions with varied workouts and is really encouraging! I have struggled to get back into fitness in recent months and johns really helping with this. He discusses your goals with you and tailors each workout to suit. I’m already seeing a difference in my body and fitness after just 5 weeks, and am grateful for John pushing me and encouraging me each week, whilst being conscious of my limits. Would recommend him as a knowledgeable trainer."
Scott's Testimonial
"
I reached out to John after watching and reading his social posts about wellbeing and taking care of yourself.
​
So, we met up for a chat and he asked me some open and honest questions like what do I want to change, do I feel stressed, am I the best version of myself at home and work, what stuff do I have on my mind.
​
By the end of our conversation I had complete trust and confidence he would make a much needed change to rushing getting the children ready in the morning, working flat out most days with no lunch and then chilling and eating anything in front of Netflix (all of which I was happy with) but needed to clear the unwanted brain fog that kept popping up!
​
Fast forward 8 weeks… I stick to the suggested meal plans, follow the videos uploaded to the app for my homework. I’m so much more tolerant at work finding solutions rather than looking for blame, getting up at 5.30 to exercise which was John’s suggestion but my choice, eating healthy 6 days and running quicker than I ever have and I only did the London Marathon 3 years ago!
​
My family means everything to me and I have a tonne more energy to chase my girls round the house and parks and even booked a date night in rather than saying we need to get out more.
People have said to me having a PT isn’t cheap but the value for me of being accountable to John, and his experience, constant check in calls and texts offers more value than a gym ever would!"
Nic's Testimonial
"I have been training with John for 4 years and have learnt so much, achieved goals I never thought possible with his support and encouragement, making lifestyle changes both physically and with nutrition using John’s vast knowledge and guidance. All with the added bonus of John being a sports massage therapist, any aches or pains along the way he has successfully relieved through massage therapy.
​
Would highly recommend both massage therapy and personal training with John."
Steve's Testimonial
"Before I started with John, I wasn't happy with my lifestyle, drinking too much and battling anxiety. I met John and everything started to change for the better.John's not your typical trainer; he looks at the big picture.
He understood that my problems weren’t just about physical fitness but also the mental battles I was facing. He tailored everything to suit my needs, setting realistic goals and mixing up the physical training with strategies to tackle my mindset. With John’s help, I've not only shaped up but also stepped into the ring for some boxing bouts, something I never thought I’d manage. It was a massive achievement for me, and it's all down to his guidance.
At work and at home, I'm all fired up now, more proactive and in control of my life. John's more than just a trainer at Essex Fitness Therapy; he's helped change my lifestyle. For anyone feeling stuck or like they've lost their way, this man will set you right."

"John has been amazing with the assistance and support he has given me on my journey towards my very first marathon, London 2024. He has always responded to me anytime of day to answer my numerous queries around general fitness, nutrition, stretching exercises and absolutely anything else. The app is also so brilliant to use and easy. The videos to help with stretches and conditioning has helped me massively, John really has helped a novice prepare and be ready to embark on his first marathon. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending John's expertise and support to anyone!"
