Strong Fix Coaching

“I had some previous training experience but was a bit out of condition due to COVID and the various lockdowns. I was also carrying an old injury in my left leg from surgery a few years previously. I was looking for a PT that had good experience of functional, mobility and strength training. Also someone to correct some imbalances in my body. Diani was the perfect fit based on her experience and background. She brings a wealth of knowledge on the body and what exercises are needed to get the most out of training while making it fun at the same time. Her workouts are very interesting and delivered in a fun way and are never just lifting weights or machines. She tailors the workouts and programmes specifically to meet your goals. She makes you work on the things you don’t always want to do but need to do. Otherwise you just keep training in the same way and never fix your long-term issues or achieve your goals. My mobility and imbalance is greatly improved and my overall conditioning and endurance for strength training is also much better since training with Diani. She is always available for support and guidance and helps with diet and lifestyle changes that are needed to help you achieve your goals. I would thoroughly recommend Diani as a PT and she is very committed and focused on delivering a quality service to her clients.”

“Training with Dee has been fantastic for me. The programme she has put together feels really challenging but also realistic and sustainable. I started to see a difference in my strength after just a few weeks. One of the differences between Dee and PTs I’ve trained with in the past is that she helps me to understand why we’re doing things a certain way and a bit of the science behind the process, so I’ll have a level of understanding and capability even after our time together when I’m training alone. Another difference is that she’s hugely focused on mobility and successful movement, so I’m way more aware of how my body should be moving in day to day life, not just in the gym. Utilising her daily support with my nutrition has been genuinely beneficial too, she takes the time to make contact and give advice with substance so it really does feel like value for money. I’ve enjoyed our sessions so much that I’m going to double my original time commitment to see what we can achieve next!”

“Diani is amazing, PERIOD. Even though I've only known Diani for a short time, she has not only helped me, but she has changed my life. Diani, first and foremost, doesn’t just get down to the nitty-gritty; she becomes your friend in a short space of time. Diani understands, listens, and tries to make everything as easy as possible for you. As a Muslim woman, going to the gym can be intimidating, but Diani always makes me feel at ease, hides me, protects my privacy, and encourages me to be modest. She is very understanding and will always prioritise your needs. As a Personal Trainer, she knows what she's doing. The fitness plans she has set up are suitable to you and your needs. I've grown stronger, I notice differences, and most importantly, I feel more confident. Diani is so funny and brings life to the lessons. There is never a session where we are not laughing, but the sessions do kill, and I always feel it afterwards. Diani is always available and responds to messages and offers advice. She is with you every step of the way, which is extremely rare to find. Furthermore, when you are at your lowest, Diani acts like caffeine, pushing you to be better all the time. Choosing to train with Diani was one of the best decisions I've ever made, and I'm confident it will benefit me for the rest of my life.”

“It all began when I went to PureGym during a difficult period in my life. There I met Diani, a fabulous trainer who, when I first met her, had a welcoming smile and not only comforted me at the time but also made me realise my self-worth. She educated me on my imbalances and how my body should move. As a result, she has significantly helped improve my knee injury and sciatica. The ultimate goal was to have a revenge body as I hadn’t been training for a while and needed help with my fitness and self-esteem. We have had a lot of training sessions since then, and she’s motivated me mentally and physically to give me the confidence to go to the gym on my own and do the same exercises she does with me every week.

I would definitely recommend Diani as a Personal Trainer because she also makes a lifestyle plan to help with my nutrition, which is suitable for my weight loss goals. In addition, the bi-weekly checks motivate me towards achieving the 12-week weight loss goal we set together. As a result, the weight has been going down, and I am much happier mentally.

Diani has the ability to make you push yourself past what you think your limits are. She motivates me to get up from the floor, stop moaning and sulking, and do the work even when I don’t want to. After every session with her, I feel great and like I have actually done a workout rather than just going to the gym and doing a few exercises here and there where I’m sweating and feeling the benefits.”

“Three words spring to mind: education, inspiration and motivation.

Education - I have always tried to keep fit by running, doing Yoga and with trips to the gym, but I have struggled with focus and motivation and so made little progress. Working with Dee has shown me I have been doing the wrong exercises to achieve my goals for years - which explains so much! Dee has taken me on a journey to better understand what I should be doing to suit my age, my lifestyle and goals.

Inspiration - her energy and sense of fun has enabled me to enjoy exercise again - she is inspirational.

Motivation - her style of teaching and coaching has reconnected me with the desire to change and be more committed to my physical well being and mental well being. I still have off days, as we all do, but I am achieving so much more now under Dee’s stewardship!”
