Client Reviews

I’d just had my first baby and it should have the happiest moment of my life, and it was in many ways, but something was really niggling me. I’d struggled with my weight for my entire adult life and post pregnant I ballooned to my heaviest ever. I wanted to be fit and healthy so I could do all the things parents should do with their children. I had never even had the confidence to go swimming! So Jay and I got talking and he devised a plan. He would have me swimming in 6 months. Fat chance I thought. 3 months later I was 7kg under my pre pregnancy weight and I took my son swimming. I could have cried. Now, after 7 months I have lost over 20kg and am a size 8 for the first time ever. Jay is meticulous in his approach. He is in contract every single day. Every week he’s adjusting something, he hates standing still. Every week he expects to see results. I am shocked at how far he will go to reach his clients goals. Nothing is too much for him. Any questions are answered instantly and he’s always free for a chat if you don’t understand something. He doesn’t just tell you to do something he explains why. His level of scientific knowledge went above my head at first but he’s an educator and I feel now that I know so much about exercise, nutrition and the human body I could probably do his job😀😀

There are personal trainers and then there are Personal Trainers. Jay at Iron Factory is the latter.

When I contacted Jay, about 9 months ago, I was very sceptical  as I thought at 66 years of age I was beyond help. At the time I was clinically obese, pre-diabetic and suffered from hypertension. Following Jay’s tailor made training regime and eating plan I now have none of those problems.

Jay’s training progresses slowly to ensure no injuries and builds up intensity over time. He is an experienced dietician and has helped me to change my eating habits and adopt a healthier lifestyle. My results speak for themselves as over 9 months I have lost a foot off my waistline and about 3 stone in weight.

I would not hesitate to recommend Jay at Iron Factory to anyone who is serious about keeping fit and healthy.

 I started training with Jay when he advertised his 12-week body transformation programme. I wasn’t very active at the time and thought this would be a great challenge over the lockdown period when I was furloughed from work.

Jay was very helpful and worked closely with me to develop a programme aimed at my fitness goals, physique gains and diet and nutrition. During this time, he was always available to message for support if I was struggling to get certain supplements or foods and provide his own training advice and tips. 

The training was intense but really motivating and I could really feel the benefits. My goals were also around building muscle and growing my physique and week on week I could see myself transforming and by the end I looked exactly how I had planned AND BETTER than how I imagined.

I would highly recommend Jay for his excellent communication and support when you take on one of his programmes which he designs with you and your goals in mind. His knowledge is second to none and for someone who didn’t know too much about bulking and the strength training, his insight was essential.

Anyone who wants to make a change and become more active whether your goals are weight loss, strength training or becoming fitter and you want someone who can meet you goals Jay can definitely help you get there. A really positive experience and would definitely recommend!
