CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
What others say about me
I employed Day initially to help me improve my posture and reduce my back pain, then later to improve my strength and help me reduce body fat.
Day 'he knows his stuff' and to a much deeper level than any other that PT I have met.
He is very good at 'working around' any body parts that have seen better days, adapting exercises to avoid aggravating other issues. He customises your training plan to suit your goals and keeps things fresh & new - no off-the-shelf plans here!
He is also happy to liaise with a physio, to devise exercise plans to help you come back from injury.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Day as a PT to anyone who is serious about improving their fitness, flexibility or who needs help getting back to full function again.

Day came highly recommended. In addition, I chose him as my personal trainer given his vast experience in competitive sports (both personal experience and the clients he trains), rehabilitation, psychology, diet, fitness and his empathy, focus and appreciation for general life fitness. Given I have a heavy computer based job working in stressful high tech environments, I needed to find someone who could help me counter some of the bad habits that creep in with posture, mental job fatigue and help me stay strong both mentally and physically and unwind from stressful and intensive working days. Day is great fun, extremely knowledgeable, very conscientious and his attention to detail personalised to each client is rare to find and deeply appreciated.  In Day's case, one size does not fit all. I have been training with Day for over 15 years and look forward to the next 15!

I worked with David for around 5 years on and off. It was initially to lose bit of weight and tone up for a friend’s wedding, but I carried on training with David afterwards, with my goals varying from weight loss to muscle gain. Initially chose David becomes just hearing him around the gym (and GOD can you hear him), he came across as the most knowledgeable of all the trainers at David Lloyd, and seemed really passionate about helping his clients.
I had been training for number of years but was amazed that I learnt so much working with David, particularly about using right form to avoid injury and breaking through plateaus. David has been in fitness industry for around 25 years and seems to understand the science behind the diet and physical training, I would be happy to recommend him.

I started training with Day in a bid to improve my overall fitness and strength, but what I have achieved was much more than this. I was able to perform excercises I never imagined I could do. Day motivated me to train for different challenges (Three Peaks Challenge in 24 hours, Reading Half-marathon etc.) and his expert knowledge, positivity and encouragement drove me forward and helped me to prepare. His routines are amazing and each programme is different and tailored to your needs. I simply can't recommend Day enough, he is a great personal trainer and a very nice person, too
Natalia Gibson
I’ve trained with Day for more than ten years. We started when I was cycle racing and he created strength, mobility and conditioning routines which complemented my work on the bike. Although I no longer compete, I continue to benefit from Day’s excellent training, which has evolved as we have developed our relationship and my needs have changed. He has a measured yet flexible approach when preparing programmes. Everything is discussed carefully with clients, to ensure the training meets their needs and aspirations. I can throughly recommend Day as a personal trainer. The fact that we have become good friends is an added bonus.
Martin Runnacles
I’ve been training with Day for just over a year and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough- his deep fitness training knowledge, high levels of professionalism and ability to design truly bespoke/personalized  training programs have helped me get fitter and stronger without once aggravating an existing ankle injury.
Day pivots and adapts training to ensure you are enhancing and building your fitness at every opportunity
Jennifer Price
I started personal training with Day around 9 years ago. I was training myself but knew I wanted to challenge my abilities.
Day's very professional coaching definitely helped me set and achieve my goals. I really enjoy my training with him he is always encouraging and motivating, he usually changes my training programme every 6 weeks to prevent me from becoming too comfortable.
I am seeing great results and have much greater strength which increases my confidence.
He is always supportive and easy to get on with, he makes training fun.
Louise York
You won’t meet a more knowledgeable and friendly trainer. My routines are 100% personal to me and as a result, the aches and pains I’ve suffered for years have now completely gone. He is one in a million!
Tom Lewis
After years of focusing on cardio training I started weight training in middle age. Day put together a realistic but challenging training programme that got me into the shape of my life for my fiftieth birthday. Since then, we've worked together on my diet, shape and overall fitness. Day's expertise in exercise, nutrition, and human behaviour make him a well-rounded PT for anyone wanting to improve their fitness or body shape. His positive attitude, empathy and sense of humour are an added bonus.
Trevor Lambert
I wanted to find a Personal Trainer as I lacked incentive to cross the threshold of a gym!
I chose Day as he had extensive experience in different types of training methods.
I first worked with Day following a heart attack and he took the time out to work through programmes which would work best for me and listen to my needs and requirements and then devised some training programmes around those.
Eight years later we’re still together and to a large part that has been due to Day’s enthusiasm, professionalism and creativity in the programmes he devises.
Simply put, Day is a very decent person, totally professional and motivational to anyone who needs professional help in achieving whatever degree of fitness they desire.
