Since training with Russ I have won gold medals in all 3 of the submission wrestling tournaments that I entered. Also I won a gold medal in my first MMA tournament.

The fights mainly consisted of 5 minute rounds and with the help of Russ's training I was able to keep the pace of the fight too high for my opponents in every fight.

"Russ provides a professional and personal service.  Every client is treated individually according to their requirements.  During our initial meeting (consultation) I expressed to Russ that I needed help with my diet as I was losing weight due to my training volume.

He went away and designed a programme that suited my needs and I was so impressed.

Russ takes great pride in his role and is certainly amongst the best I have worked with....I would recommend him to everyone."

My PT session with Russ was always a killer workout & he worked me hard...Just what I needed. My goals were to tone up more than loose weight so Russ put me through a 12- 20 minute intense cardio workout which always felt like double I would do on my own so we really utilised the time.

During the first 12-14 weeks  I lost over 2 stone, dropped 2 dress sizes, my body shape has completely changed (I go in and out were I’m supposed to!!), my body is more toned, and a 14% body fat reduction.

Before I started with Russ I was lacking confidence, and generally not feeling very good about myself, I now feel confident that I can do whatever is thrown at me by Russ.

When I started training with Russ I didn't know what to expect as my usual routine was eating takeaways on a regular bases. Changing to dieting was hard for me to get into a routine to eat healthier but with the support of Russ I got there in the end.

Training was hard but when it got tough and when I felt like I was going to give up Russ always motivated me to keep going even when I am “physically passing out” which boosted my confidence and made me even more determined to achieve my goals.

Scary at first, probably daunting I was going to be working with a male who was younger than me, very knowledgeable and who looked extremely fit.

I was well out of my comfort zone; I was mortified that I would come across as this stupid middle aged mum of 2 who would collapse at the first challenge.

I think that was down to the fact that I had no confidence in myself or ability.
