Hi, I am Gav and I have worked in the fitness industry since 2004 and I want to help others achieve their fitness goals. I am a level 3 qualified personal trainer and a qualified boxercise instructor for both adults and children. I am first aid trained and fully insured.

I offer personal training and teach classes including body workout, hiit and boxercise. The bespoke class service I offer includes yoga, pilates and meditation. I also teach classes for school children.

My aim is to make fitness accessible to everyone and I am confident I offer a service that is customer friendly, fun, happy and is a professional environment to suit you.

I have worked with a diverse variety of clients, helping them achieve a wide range of goals, please read some of my testimonials to see what people have to say about me. I enjoy working on both a 1:1 basis and also with groups to help motivate and inspire you along, on your fitness journey.

I am happily married with 3 fantastic children. We love to spend time by the seaside, at our beach hut and you will notice a lot of my services are offered outside, particularly down by the beach. This is my “happy” place and I am confident, if you train with Bournemouth Wellbeing Experience, you will have fun, be motivated and achieve your goals.

Training with Bournemouth wellbeing experience has completely turned my life around! I first started training with Gav 3 months ago and now have a completely different outlook on life and attitude towards fitness and looking after myself.

So far I’ve lost 1 stone and have changed my workouts to focusing on building muscle rather than loosing weight as well as dramatically changing my diet due to achieving my weight loss goal. Now I see training as a treat in my spare time rather than a chore that I felt too lazy to do. It’s also encouraged me to join the gym, which I never would have had the confidence to do before but I now love it!

The training Gav does is specific to my goals and each session he encourages me to improve specific areas, which is great for feeling good about what I’ve achieved and keeping track of my progress.

Before I started training I would wake up late, was unmotivated and had no intentions of incorporating good health into my daily life. With Fiona’s nutrition advice I now make weekly meal plans that organise me for the week and prevent me from going off focus, which I used to find easy to do.

I do 3 sessions a week with Gav and we train in different locations and do different types of training, which is always something to look forward to.

My confidence now is better than ever and I’d hate to think of what I’d be like now if I never made those changes.

"When I started the October challenge I was a little sceptical as to whether or not I would be able to stick to it. After two weeks, I felt absolutely amazing, I lost 4lbs and I’m I really enjoy training every day with Gav and the other Challenge participants. Fiona (nutritional coach) provided us with a great, easy to follow, quick to prepare, 4 week diet plan which incorporates all the foods that I enjoy. I’ve loved participating in the October Challenge that I will definitely be doing the next one”

A fantastic session. Some running, Bodyweight exercises and Tri-Set Training. Gavin is an ideal PT, who talks and shows you through it all. This caters for all levels of fitness. A thoroughly enjoyable session which will put you through you paces, but you'll come away feeling like you've accomplished something

There was a flyer in the Bournemouth beach lodges where we were staying for the long weekend with details and classes of fitness sessions - I signed up for the boscombe beach body workout on the Saturday morning, I thought the class was great, it had everything I needed for a full body, high intensity workout on our little break that made me feel slightly less guilty about drinking and eating the weekend!
It was easy to book online and a good price (I think I got a discount with the flyer too).
I can’t fault the setting.... working out on the sand by the sea on a clear hot day, it doesn’t get better location that that, I know where I would rather workout (my gym is underground in the middle of London).
The equipment was really good, great variation..... for some of the exercises deadlifts, slams, BB bicep curl etc could maybe do with some heavier weights to add quickly.
Good instruction and encouragement/pushing as well.
If/when I return I would sign up again.

I have been doing GT Fitness 1:1 sessions for several months now and they have been great. I go to the gym 4 times a week and had reached a bit of a plateau. I decided to take up personal training and found that Gav’s sessions have complemented my existing exercise program and really pushed me on. Every session is individually planned to your needs and the constant variation of sessions makes each workout something I look forward to and I have really felt the benefits!

I've just had my first boxercise class with Gavin. I wasn't sure what to expect having not done it before and feeling very unfit but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Gavin is a natural and I can't wait for next week!!

I have been trained by Gavin and done one of his small group PT sessions. Gavin is really patient and pushes you to work hard while making it fun! Would recommend.
