Sometimes the best recommendations come from people who've known us for years, and Andrew's story is a lovely example of that.
Around 10 years ago, his wife Hannah used to attend my postnatal buggy bootcamp. Fast forward a decade, and Hannah got back in touch, this time asking if we could help her husband, Andrew.
I always appreciate it when someone remembers their experience with us and trusts us enough to recommend a family member.
Getting Started with Personal Training
When Andrew first came to Kate Campbell Fitness, he wanted to lose weight, improve his nutrition and establish a consistent exercise routine.
He started working with Dom, one of our personal trainers, who helped him build his strength, improve his fitness and make changes to his nutrition.
Andrew chose Pure PT a 12-session personal training package, with Dom tailoring his workouts to his goals.
Nothing Fancy, Just Consistency!
Working with Dom, Andrew focused on the basics of strength training: compound exercises, squats, deadlifts, push and pull exercises, gradually increasing the weights as he got stronger.
His nutrition hasn't involved anything drastic either. He's worked on reducing his portion sizes, increasing his protein intake and becoming more aware of what he's eating.
No complicated workouts or restrictive diets. Just a structured training programme, sensible nutrition changes and consistency.
And the results speak for themselves!
Since starting personal training, Andrew has:
Lost a stone in weight.
Improved his strength and fitness.
Set a new personal best on pull-ups.
Built a more consistent training routine.
Grown in confidence and motivation.
But it's not just the weight loss that matters.
Andrew is enjoying his training, feeling stronger and seeing what he's capable of achieving.
And that's something worth celebrating!
In Andrew's Own Words
Andrew recently left us a lovely five-star Google review, sharing his experience of training with Dom and being part of Kate Campbell Fitness.
An incredibly supportive and welcoming gym. I bought 12 personal trainer sessions and got so much out of it. Dom, my PT, was brilliant. Had discussions about my goals and he tailored my workouts accordingly. Kate gets to know all her clients personally, which all makes for a really great experience. Can't recommend highly enough!
It's also lovely to hear that the personal support we try to give every member has made a difference to his experience.

Just the Beginning!
Andrew is still at the beginning of his fitness journey, but what a start!
A stone down, strength improving, and, most importantly, he's enjoying the process.
A massive well done, Andrew! Dom and I are both really proud of your progress, and we're looking forward to seeing what you achieve next.
And a big thank you to Hannah for remembering us all these years later!
Feeling inspired by Andrew's story?
Sometimes all it takes is a little encouragement from someone close to us!
Just like Hannah did for Andrew, perhaps there's someone in your life who's been talking about getting fitter, losing a bit of weight or getting back into exercise, but hasn't quite taken that first step.
