Stronghold Strength & Wellness

I’ve been training at Stronghold for a number of months and have been getting fantastic results. Christian Puts in a lot of effort to create a plan tailored to my body - factoring posture, areas of weakness, previous injuries and style. The workouts are varied and tailored to the way I get energised and the progressions are always on point. His ability to adjust exercises on the fly depending on my performance/energy to keep me in a healthy training zone is remarkable.Like most places though, you get out what you put in. The weights don’t lift themselves - but if you’re looking for someone who’s super knowledgeable, passionate about what he does and can offer you a truly personalised program then I recommend Christian from Stronghold.

Christian is a truly excellent trainer. He's not only great to communicate with, but he has also been brilliant in working with my specific needs to understand what is necessary to meet my goals. People may think a PT is just about weight loss or bodybuilding. However, Christian addresses all types of fitness goals and not just the 'norm.' In my case, I was focused on exercises for cardiovascular health and strengthening my body after being unwell. He created an exercise plan suited to my body type and specific to my goals. His exercise plan has helped immensely with my recovery. If you want to work with a PT who positively changes you and your body, you can do no better than Christian.

Christian is a phenomenal personal trainer. Pushes you hard to achieve your health and fitness goals, but understands your busy work and family life. Best decision I ever made was to start to train with Christian changed my perspective on lifting technique and diet for the body & mind. Would 100% recommend

Working with Christian has been one of the best decisions of my life. His knowledge of nutrition and training is incredible. He takes the time to answer my questions and make sure I understand why I’m doing what I’m doing. Christian also makes sure that he incorporates all aspects of life into his programs.He considers physical aspects alongside mental, spiritual, emotional and general wellbeing.This isn’t just about short term progress and wins for him, it’s about creating lifelong change and habits to create lasting results. Stronger body and a stronger mind.BEST DECISION I EVER MADE

Head coach Christian is not a personal trainer who just pushes you to do more reps and then continues onto the next person. He takes a holistic view of your goals taking into account lifestyle and sets about planning how you will achieve those goals and maintain it long term.What also sets Christian apart from the traditional PT" is the way he nurtures everyone in the club

Hands down, best choice I’ve made training at Stronghold strength and fitness. The trainer christian is very friendly, motivating and extremely qualified. Even with having a very busy work life, Christian has found a way for me to fit training into my schedule and stay super motivated to keep pushing each week.Christian has been very supportive, takes the time to get to know you and what your goals are and never makes you feel under pressure.Would highly recommend!!!

Having been a stronghold member for over two years now, it has been such a great experience seeing how much value being part of such a supportive environment has made to both my physical and mental health.As an desk/office worker, Christian always makes sure he tailors structured and personalised training sessions to suit my fitness goals. He always educates me about strength training from a holistic viewpoint, and is also one of the most patient and encouraging coaches I have ever met.Being a person who suffers from chronic conditions such as migraines, ibs, and even endometriosis, the services which stronghold health club offers (such as group PT, and remedial massage) has worked wonders in helping me manage and treat chronic pain, which would otherwise impact my daily functioning.Training at stronghold is not about “going to train after work”…..its about “going to train with my family after work”…..and when you describe it like that…it always warms my heart!

I have been training at Stronghold strength and fitness for many years, and in that time I have learned how to train safely, and have impressive gains for a person of my size. I am quite small and it is difficult for me to gain weight and size, and Christian has guided me through countless reps and challenges to help me to build myself into what I want to be. His advice has been invaluable to help me reduce my muscle soreness, and avoid injury in general while growing strength and keeping my flexibility. Stronghold has my recommendation, and my thanks for quality training.
