It’s great working out with Darren, he keeps you motivated, changes up the routine every week, and it’s nice to be able to share the session with my sister. We have a laugh and feel totally relaxed, who’d have thought that about going to the gym! I’m getting stronger every week! And the real proof is in the fact I look forward to going every week.
I would highly recommend it. Jennie Review submitted via Facebook

When I started training with Darren in April 2017, I was recovering from a knee injury.
I'd had to give up running and bootcamp at the suggestion of the consultant, so I'd taken up Pilates and started doing a lot more walking. I'd been thinking about weight training for a while but I didn't really want to join a gym. When my friend suggested we share training sessions with Darren, I jumped at the chance. It's great as we can share the cost of the session but we can also motivate each other (and have a few laughs). And as we train from Darren's home gym, our sessions are 100% private. Darren also gives us dietary advice and has talked to us about basal metabolic rate and calorie counting. This has completely changed the way I think about food and as a result, I have a much healthier relationship with it. (As a serial dieter, it's very liberating to realise that no foods are off-limits). Darren is a motivational trainer and a top bloke. He makes you feel good about your strengths and helps you work on your weaknesses. Workouts are varied and fun, and he even lets you choose the music! My knee is the strongest it has felt in a long time (but I still hate lunges)! Review submitted via Facebook I love training with Darren. He trains my friend and I together which is brilliant for motivation. I have always hated the gym but now I look forward to our sessions & have seen the difference in a few weeks. I also feel better mentally & as a runner notice the improvement in my core strength. I would recommend Darren to anyone & nothing is ever too much trouble for him which makes such a difference.
Lindsey Mills Woodford Green Review submitted via Facebook Hi,
Just a shout out to people on behalf of Phoenix Fitness. Darren personally devised a fitness plan for me that I was able to incorporate into a busy lifestyle, (full time job and family) and his encouragement gave me motivation to make life changes. His knowledge regarding what foods to eat and how to exercise helped me shed a stone that had been "hanging around" unwanted for a year. With Darren's knowledge, patience and judgment, he encouraged and helped me put things into perspective. His straight talking and down to earth techniques can easily be included into our daily routines and has helped me achieve my goal and lose the weight. Darren is easy to talk to, non judgemental and human - he understands that sometimes we stray from the path - but that's ok, tomorrow is another day. I am happier, clothes fit (having dropped a whole dress size) and I have lots more energy. Look him up, he'll have time for you. I have been training with Darren at Phoenix Fitness for the past 3 months and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
I have always enjoyed exercise, but over the last year or so I was finding it increasingly difficult to become motivated and get into a routine with my training. Since training with Darren, I am now back on track and I am already seeing results. Darren is an outstanding trainer. He listens to what you want to get from your training sessions and then builds an individual programme based on your goals and aspirations. He challenges your personal expectations, without being forceful or too pushy. His carefully planned programs ensure quick progress, with no 2 sessions ever being the same. Darren runs Phoenix Fitness from home and his home gym has a wide range of equipment, including free weights and machines. This means you never have to wait for or share equipment and you can guarantee that you will be able to access everything you need for your program. If you need advice on nutrition or any aspect of healthy living a healthy lifestyle Darren can also offer you help and support with this too. He is extremely supportive and positive, allowing you to feel totally at ease when discussing personal issues such as weight. Last but by no means least; Darren is an absolutely top bloke! He is never judgmental and he totally understands how hard it can be to stick to routines when you work full time and have a family. I now really look forward to my training sessions, and never see them as a chore. He makes training fun and since having him as my trainer I am now in a really good fitness routine and reaping the benefits. |
