| Equipment I use : I work in a privately owned fully equipped gym, which is probably one of the best equipped free weights and strength training gyms in Gloucesterhire, with plenty of cardio equipment, and a comfortable treatment room for sports massage therapy. | |||||||

| Experience : I’ve been a passionate sportsman for nearly 20 years and would love to help you enjoy sport and exercise as much as I do. Through my years of experience in helping people look and feel fantastic, assessing and improving posture and core strength, preventing and rehabilitating injuries, and developing strength, speed and power for sport, I can help you achieve more than you ever thought possible! I have previously worked with professional teams and athletes, and in physiotherapy clinics. I am also a tutor of Sports Massage at Gloucestershire College, as well as in the health and fitness industry, educating personal trainers, sports coaches, yoga and pilates instructors in a number of topics such as postural assessment, self myo-fascial release with foam rollers, Olympic weight lifting, core training, training with medicine and stability balls, to name just a few. | |||||||

| Professional Reference Having spent the best part of a year out with a dislocated knee and after undergoing surgery, I found it hard to get motivated to get back in shape and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Chris assessed my needs very closely and gave me a pathway to follow, helping me to go from a very unfit 120kg to a lean 110kg and get motivated, even when i couldn't play rugby. Not only has Chris got me healthy again, but also fit enough to get back into training and return to playing rugby. I have been hitting personal bests every session since the very first one, and I am now bigger, stronger, fitter and faster than ever, and with Chris's help I will be in peak physical and mental shape when i go to New Zealand to continue playing professional rugby later this year. Joe Smart, professional Rugby player. Chris is a brilliant trainer, he listens to what you want and need and starts you at an appropriate level, I felt so great after every session I had with him! I especially loved the boxing! He makes the sessions fun and tough, he knows when your slacking and when you need that extra push. I noticed results very quickly, I felt my muscle tone change and I dropped nearly half a stone! After a session with Chris you are guaranteed to feel like you've worked your whole body - totally worth it! Lillie Melaert, professional model. Over the past few months Chris has helped to add a different dimension to my training. Being a competitive masters swimmer I was looking for a specific programme to compliment my pool training. Through Chris’s thorough assessments and excellent knowledge base, he designed a series of progressive programmes to address identified postural issues and work towards developing the core strength needed to further the power in my stroke. Chris has a highly professional yet fun manner, which makes the sessions both productive and enjoyable. (2009 GB Masters 400m Individual Medley Champion and age group winner in three other events; 2008 Ranked in World Masters Top Ten in four events; 2008 National Masters Age Group Champion; will be competing in the World Masters Games in Sydney and 2010 World Masters Swimming Championships in Gothenburg). Kate Nimmo, Cheltenham. Chris provided a great programme for me, a combination of massage and exercise, to reduce the pain and stiffness;I have in my neck and shoulders caused by stress and my bad posture. He quickly identified the route of problem and talked me through everything. I immediately felt very relaxed with Chris who is extremely professional and thorough, and knows where all those nasty knots are and my neck and shoulders feel much better and I'm keeping up with the exercises. Thanks Chris. Caroline Topping, Cheltenham. The most used words during PT when I first started seeing Chris in 2006 were 'I can’t do it!'. Three years down the line and he has helped me immensely. I managed to lose 4 stone and with a great deal of help from Chris .ive mamaged to keep it off. He has also helped me a lot with an ongoing back problem which is now better, and without the help of Chris I feel I would still be suffering now after seeing a GP who dismissed all the pain that I was having. I enjoy PT as it brings variety to my usual workout routine. I know I can also have a laugh and friendly banter with Chris which makes me enjoy the sessions even more – Never a dull moment! I don’t think I would have achieved what I have achieved if it wasn’t for all his help, so thank you Chris! Nicole Burson-Smart, Gloucester. | |||||||
