About me

Your personal trainer

I support you to reach your goals, get stronger and push your limits.

It can be difficult and daunting knowing where to begin or how to stay motivated on your own!

I work with you to create a customised fitness plan that is motivating, enjoyable and appropriate for your current fitness level.

As part of developing your health and fitness I will also review your diet and lifestyle and build our plan together.

DAN GOLLOP

With over a decade of experience as a Personal Trainer & Fitness Coach and a certified Sports Scientist my main area of expertise is based around Strength and Conditioning

As per my academic background after all these years I still enjoy teaching my training methods to my clients.

Much of my work is to ensure my clients develop correct technique to make sure they don’t pick up any bad habits along the way. It is also important that I am there to provide supervision to ensure clients remain free from injury.

I’ve found by taking an active role in personal training helps clients understand the basis of why we are doing an exercise as part of their fitness programme.

Personalised PLans

Many of us intend to visit the gym although our hectic lifestyles and schedules don't allow us to. I will design a personalised plan to fit your lifestyle, goals & fitness level to help reintroduce you to the gym by providing workouts that are fun but challenging.

graceful uplift

Many of my more mature clients often exceed their own expectations. They have even found they are able to out perform those 20 years younger.

weighting around

Weightlifting can be done by everyone and is effective in gaining muscle but also creating definition and tone. Its important when learning how to lift weights that correct technique is taught to avoid injury.

Gym journey

If you’re just starting out on your fitness journey, I’ll help you discover exercises that you enjoy. Together we will create workouts that are fun and uplifting.

WHAT THEY SAY

Personal Training doesn’t have to be tough and grueling. Some of my clients actually like me (Ok maybe one or two)

"You know you have a good PT when a) you actually laugh and enjoy your sessions; and b) the hour goes by so quick! I've had 8 PT sessions with Dan, 4 outside of the gym and 4 in a gym environment, and would highly recommend him to anyone! I had never had a PT session before so was unsure what to expect, but instantly felt at ease. I got in touch with Dan after my goals had changed and I wanted some help to make sure I was going in the right direction! What I learn during my sessions doesn't just benefit me for that hour, it's things I then take on board for sessions on my own and in the future too. Dan encourages you to push yourself but in a motivating way that you end up progressing without even realising you're doing it! You can tell that he's passionate about what he does and that he cares about his clients achieving their goals. P.S. Don't be fooled by his resting gym face, he's just focused and is actually really friendly!
