Testimonials

After breaking my leg and ankle in 7 different places in January 2010 while Snowboarding I arrived at Energie Fitness to meet with Lee Spendiff to help with my recovery.

My consultant at Ninewells painted quite a slow and difficult recovery and told me that I would still be using at least one crutch towards the end of the year and not to begin Phisio etc untilL then.

However being a lady who sometimes doesn't listen and breaks a few rules I decided to go back into training in June of this year and I must say its the best thing I done as I no longer use crutches, haven't since late June and I was back driving then too.

Its been very hard work, Lee has me pushing and lifting weights I couldn't manage before the breaks and he has encouraged me when I sometimes I felt low and was in pain but even though I still have so much more to do in the gym over the next year or so, I can honestly say that Lee has worked wonders in my recovery and would urge anyone with any broken bones etc to come along and have a consultation with him.

My consultant nearly fell off his chair when I cycled to Ninewells from Broughty Ferry in September but I now know that eventually even with broken bones etc,if you are willing to do the work in the gym, supervised of course then anything is possible!

I first visited Lee for sports therapy on a wrist injury due to an accident at work. It had limited movement, weakness and pain despite having an operation on it. With a course of treatment, including massage, exercise & ultrasound, there has been a vast improvement. I will never get full mobility in the joint, but I now have less pain and more flexibility that allows me to carry out many everyday tasks that I was previously struggling with.

I have continued to see Lee in a therapy capacity for other injuries I incurred, due to my being rather accident prone!! I have always found him to be very knowledgeable and professional in his role.

I began to have P.T. sessions with Lee about a year ago and he has helped me to improve my fitness levels. There have been dramatic changes in my body, he has helped me to feel much happier with my body and more comfortable with myself. He is always happy to answer my questions (no matter how silly!!), gives sound nutritional advice and makes the whole experience of working out enjoyable.

When Lee said he was starting a Bootcamp last summer I was of course keen to join. Lee and the other guys in the BodyMotiv8 team are great.

It is a good addition to the gym and as hard as the sessions sometimes are, they always manage to make them fun too. There have been some fantastic, but extremely hard sessions, in the gym and on the beach. The 3 sessions a week have aided my fitness levels to make me fitter and stronger. The instructors are always thinking of challenging and innovative ways to train us.

I would not hesitate to recommend Lee to anyone requiring treatment or looking for personal training.

Thanks very much Lee for all your hard work and encouragement.

Lee came highly recommended by several fellow runners. So I started seeing Lee for regular sports massage treatments as part of my preparation for a big ultra marathon in France. I had always felt pretty sore and stiff after ultra marathons, but since having regular treatment sessions this stiffness is very mild and my little niggles during the run (tight glutes, shoulder and hamstrings) and post-run aching and painful feet have gone. I have no doubt that seeing Lee enabled me to complete well with no niggles at all in a 22 hour endurance run in France, Italy and Swiss Alps and be able to walk again normally in 2 days. I felt brilliant during the race and recovery was extremely quick. Lee is professional, really approachable and certainly knows his stuff. He is always able to provide informative answers to any questions such as comprehensive BMI reading with additional info on body fat and hydration, advice on how to build up weaker muscles in the gym, etc. Lee provides a very holistic approach and takes you just as you are. Big thanks Lee. See you soon in the prep for the next ultra.

I just wanted to thank you for all of the work that you have done with my chronic Achilles tendonitis. When I first came to see you I had tried to adjust to the idea that I would never be doing much running again but really wanted to be able to maintain my hill walking and outdoor activities. I am now running up to 3 times a week and doing lots of hill walking with no discomfort and lots of knowledge of how to deal with the problem if it arises again.

Many thanks again

I have just completed a block of 10 weekly sessions with Lee. In that time, with his support, I have lost a stone in weight , and gained loads of confidence in my own physical ability. After a few years of not taking part in regular exercise, I was pretty much fat, frumpy and definitely moody. His nutritional advice has seen me say goodbye to cravings and high fat food. For me, being accountable to Lee keeps me on track. I can’t believe the difference in my strength, with the statistics to prove that I have actually turned fat into muscle (Lee uses special equipment to measure all this - which means I get a bit of a rest!) After the initial assessment, the sessions have involved using different machines, weights, equipment and even a game of basketball – never two weeks the same. I am becoming more toned and have recovered my energy. Today I ran outside in the fresh air for forty minutes and felt great afterwards – that makes all the effort worthwhile. Can’t wait to see what the next block will do!!

This is just a wee thank you note for helping me achieve my goal of running under 3 hours (2.56.04) for the London Marathon this year (2009). I have absolutely no doubt that without your efforts in treating my aches, pains and injuries in the lead up to the marathon, I doubt that I would have achieved my goal. Anyone who is considering training for a marathon or runs regularly would benefit greatly from Lee's expertise and I would not hesitate to recommend Lee's services and I will continue to use Lee's services as a regular part of my training routine.

Many Thanks

After 6 years of regular running I finally got my first sports injury and, at just 4 weeks before my first full marathon, it couldn’t be worse timing. I had terrible shooting pains in my feet that made it very difficult to continue running. A friend recommended that I go and see Lee Spendiff and I was amazed at how quickly he diagnosed the problem. The injury was not directly to my feet but to my calves which, after 4 months of marathon training, were very tight and full of scar tissue – i.e. very neglected! Lee measured the flexibility of the affected muscles and treated my calves with excellent sports massage. He also gave me specific stretching exercises to do at home and after a couple of weeks of treatment I was back to normal! Amazing!

With Lee’s professional help I ran my first marathon absolutely pain-free. He also showed me how to warm up and stretch properly before running and recommended stomach strengthening exercises and ITB strengthening exercises which will help improve my running in the future. I would highly recommend Lee Spendiff to anyone who runs regularly, both for injury treatment and prevention.

I was fast approaching 50 as a fat and unfit lump of lard! Having moved from academia into the pharmaceutical industry in recent years I was wearing all of the excesses of my corporate lifestyle around my waistline and I was not happy with this. I contacted Lee via his website and asked for his help for my husband and I. I have to admit that I felt that this would probably be yet another failed attempt to get us under control but that was until I met Lee. Lee is an amazing person, from the moment I met him I felt that this time it would be different. He is extremely knowledgeable, calm, reassuring and totally non-judgemental.

Lee gave me a full body analysis and the results were shocking. My body fat was 42%, I weighed 77.6kg, my BMI was 32, my waist circumference was 106, I was hypertensive and to top it all I was dehydrated! Undaunted by the task in front of him Lee has worked with me and the results in 6 weeks are amazing. I feel wonderful and much more positive about life. I have lost almost a stone (6kg) in weight almost 8 inches (20cm) off my waist and my fitness level is greater than it has ever been. What has helped me enormously is that Lee has encouraged me by checking my body fat and muscle percentages, (which showed that I had lost 4kg of fat and gained 4kg of muscle one week when the scales didn’t register a loss), as well as a tape measure and not just scales. Lee has designed a programme to target the areas I am concerned with and leave me with the curves I want to keep! It is not easy but he somehow manages to motivate you to just get on with it even between training sessions.

I am very grateful to Lee for all his help and encouragement, there have been days when persuading myself to go to the gym has been a struggle but by the end of my training session I have always been delighted that I attended. The reward of an occasional massage, (a total pleasure!), has also helped enormously.

What is most important to me is that I am thoroughly enjoying my training sessions and I intend to keep going to them. I cannot believe that I can write this as until now I have always been a total gym-phobic.

I was recommended to Lee Spendiff through a friend. I was 85 Kilos and looked like a sack of potatoes, had no confidence, and was very unfit. My body fat was 46%.

Lee gave me a full body analysis, and started me on a fitness regime, seeing me once a week. It was great. Lee is so motivating, professional and knowledgeable. I have an existing back problem and he knew exactly what kind of exercise I needed to strengthen this area for long term benefit. Lee gave me so much confidence with his professional attitude, and encouragement.

I am now 79 Kilos, have lost 5 inches of my waist, and my body fat is down to 32%! ! ! for me its been worth all the effort as I feel great and look 100% better, thanks to Lee’s encouragement.

I would recommend Lee to everyone.

Thank you.

As a 53 year old male with 36 years of pen pushing behind me and no serious sustained exercise in the past 20 years, my health profile was less than ideal. 2 stone over weight, high blood pressure and heaving for breath at the top of 3 flights of stairs. Add in to the mix countless failed diets and a number of broken resolutions in respect of exercise regimes paint's the full picture.

I found Lee Spendiff`s website BodyMotiv8 and thought maybe with help I could improve my fitness levels, lose weight and lower my blood pressure. To be honest I approached Lee with apprehension and a great deal of uncertainty as to what I would happen, I had this image of me being the proverbial "fish out of water" in the world of personal trainers. I could not have been more wrong, 4 months down the line I am 20lbs lighter, my blood pressure is 15 points lower and I am exercising at a level I never achieved in my 20's never mind my 50's.

All of the above would not have happened without Lee's help and encouragement which he links into new challenges week upon week. He is totally professional in his approach and it is obvious he takes great pride in his work. Somewhat perversely I look forward to my training sessions with Lee and I guess that is his greatest attribute. I am looking forward to continuing to improve my physical well being with Lee's expert assistance over the months ahead.

I recommend Lee Spendiff at BodyMotiv8 to anyone with a musculo-skeletal injury, particularly if that injury is sports related. I am a runner, occasional triathlete, adventure racer and general glutton for punishment (and in my spare time I am a hospital doctor). Last year I was completely laid up with a gluteal injury, tight iliotibial bands, and then a torn calf muscle. Lee is an excellent sports masseur and this was the best way to treat my muscular injuries, but he did a lot more than just treat the injuries. Lee measured the strength and flexibility of my different muscle groups and gave me specific stretching and strengthening exercises as a result of which I got back on the road quickly, and thanks to him, I was third in a duathlon in the summer.

I am 62 and recently retired having spent many years sitting in front of a computer at work. I am not actively involved with any sport (I watch the Olympics every 4 years) and I am not particularly overweight though recently I have gained a bit more of a blokes belly. I am of fairly average fitness for my age and relatively healthy but I have suffered from a frozen shoulder for a couple of years.

My wife wanted to improve her health and fitness with a personal trainer so I was dragged along (reluctantly) to provide moral support. Carol thought it would do us both good to stay healthy and enable us to make the most of my retirement. After a fitness assessment I was found to be more stiff than the average (off the bottom of the scale to be honest) but fairly strong (must be all the curries I have picked up over the years).

After the initial fitness assessment my next session with Lee was at the gym. That was potentially a seriously intimidating part for me as I had never been to a gym before. However, Lee was very reassuring as he gave me a tour around the gym and equipment which made me relaxed and confident. Lee put me through a variety of exercises and provided lots of guidance and encouragement at each stage. I now have a session about once per week and am impressed by how many different exercises Lee has in his repertoire. This variety helps to make the sessions interesting and enjoyable. As the weeks have gone by I have been feeling fitter and stronger and come back from the sessions motivated to continue with exercises at home. The more I exercise the more physical activity I can do. I also find it mentally stimulating and wish I had done this years ago. I would never have been motivated to go to the gym on my own and would not know how to exercise effectively without Lee's guidance. Having a frozen shoulder means some exercises are difficult, as I have a limited range of movement on my left arm, but Lee works around my limits and is giving me specific exercises to increase the movement.

Lee's input is invaluable to us and we are very grateful to him for his support and encouragement.

I am a 36 year old female who started the gym reluctantly. I had a pain in my back that no specialist could cure, so a friend recommended Lee Spendiff. I started of getting sports therapy and after a few sessions my back pain was gone. I asked him about personal training and if he thought he could get me into shape. I never thought I was overweight ,but would like to be fitter and trim up certain body parts. I started training once a week with him, it was torture, I wont say it was easy! however after the second session he had convinced me to change my diet and eat the proper food, and it didnt seem the up hill struggle I thought it would be.

We all know what is required to loose weight, however to have someone that can motivate you, put you on the correct diet and give you the advice needed for the body shape you want is essential. Lee is very professional in his field as a trainer and a sports therapist, and certainly knows how to motivate you. I have been training with Lee since November and by the end of February I had reached my target. I decreased my body fat content by 10% and have lost 8 kilos.I really feel great and content with my health and body, I have now another goal which will be harder, but with Lee pushing me I know I will reach it.
Lee knows everything in health and fitness and knows how to motivate you without putting you off. If you want to change your life and get in shape I would recommend Lee. It is worth it.....really!

After Lee Spendiff was recommended to me by a colleague, I have been going to him for regular sports massage sessions. He has also given me a flexibility programme and does developmental stretches with me during sessions which I have found has increased my flexibility.

I have always found Lee to be a complete professional and very knowledgeable in his field. He is friendly, approachable and is an excellent motivator

Approx 10 years ago I injured my shoulder at work in a nursing home then in 2001 I had a car accident causing a bad whiplash injury. Since then I have struggled with chronic neck and shoulder pain which has been virtually impossible to get rid of. I'm only 30 and as I'm a nurse even a small flare up of my symptoms makes working both painful and difficult. Over the years I have tried most treatments - reflexology, physiotherapy, reiki, manipulation, osteopathy, heat and cold therapy and of course painkillers, but massage has proven to be the most effective. I met Lee through a friend who has also benefited from his treatments.

His holistic approach to the problem is very welcome and reassuring. He really does seem to have "healing hands" and is very knowledgeable about the subject. Since having regular consultations with Lee I hardly ever have to take painkillers, which I used to have to take daily just to function. He also helps me regain some movement in my neck and shoulders which tend to be very stiff. Over the years I have been told by many medical specialists that this injury will cause me life-long problems - thanks to Lee I now have hope that these will be minimal. I would not hesitate to recommend Lee's services to anyone with a similar injury.

Earlier this year I developed a calf injury which stopped me running. I sought advice from 2 physiotherapists who diagnosed the problem but the injury persisted. Luckily a fellow runner recommended Lee Spendiff. His holistic approach i.e. listening to the patient and treating the whole leg rapidly settled the problem. In addition Lee has also given me a lot of general advice on injury prevention stretching diet and exercise which I have found extremely useful. His professional manner and thorough approach make a consultation a pleasure and have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Diana Johnston

-------------------------------------------

I was introduced to Lee Spendiff a few months ago by a fitness instructor. I have flat feet this has devolved over the years to me having poor mobility, chronic pain and swelling of the ankle and knee joints.

When I first met Lee my ankles were so rigid that I could only walk a few yards without sever discomfort. Lee introduced me to a chiropractor who helped free up my joints while Lee worked on my muscles. (my muscles were so hard and rigid)

Over the years I have tried several types of therapy but they only gave very short term relief.

After working with Lee for the last few months I now have my mobility back and my body is more flexible. Today I walked for 7 miles with only slight discomfort, I was lucky if I could walk around the supermarket without suffering sever pain and swelling of my joint before.

It is always a pleasure going for treatment from Lee as he is very motivated and professional. Lee has worked on the whole of my body as the joints have come back into alignment giving me appropriate exercises. He gave me an individualised programme that deals with the problems I have. ( In the past I was given exercises by other therapists that only aggravated the problems I had and limited my mobility even more)

I would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you for giving me back my mobility and ridding me of the chronic swelling around my ankles. It is just a pity he doesn't work for the NHS

Sandra Imrie

Nurse

-------------------------------------------

I hurt my back wheel barrowing in the garden (where else does one in their seventies wheelbarrow?) and a few weeks later I developed a list to the side and resembled a walking leaning tower of Pisa, getting out of the car was an agonising contortion.

The chiropractor re-aligned my bones and after a few weekly treatments suggested deep clinical massage to assist healing, and that Lee Spendiff was the man to do this as he has years of back, and any form of sports injuries, experience.

Meeting Lee I felt his 'positive' energy and a security knowing that he would help me, and this he did.

The pain lessened from the first massage and I felt such relief! He also designed a programme of exercises to strengthen my back, doing these with me on the mat, and explaining the muscles involved, then showing me on his wall charts. He did everything he possibly could to assist the healing process and now I am 'fixed'.

I can only say one thing........Lee Spendiff's dedication towards his patients is faultless, he has magic healing hands, and he can 'fix' you, as he did me.

Dora Fitzpatrick Retired Professional Dancer

-------------------------------------------

I like to keep myself physically fit and regularly work-out by jogging and cycling. Unfortunately, at the beginning of this year, whilst out jogging, I painfully pulled my hamstring and the front quad muscles in my leg which prevented me from continuing any form of exercise. I desperately required the attention of a recognised physio.

I was recommended Lee Spendiff from BodyMotiv8. The professional service he provided with Sports & Remedial Massage and Personal Training, from the beginning put me at ease and gave me the confidence to continue the treatment, which proved highly beneficial as Lee managed to locate the problem area of the injured muscles. At the end of my treatment, my hamstring and quad muscles have been restored to full fitness and I have been able to continue my personal fitness programme without any further problems re-occurring.

I would have no hesitation in using his services again.

I consulted Lee Spendiff to see if he could help to ease shoulder pain which had been troubling me for several years and which was steadily becoming more severe, despite physiotherapy.

I was impressed by his swift diagnosis of the cause of the problem, which allowed for the development of a treatment and exercise regime which produced rapid results.

For the first time in ages my shoulder is pain free, and this is entirely due to the expert treatment and advice which Lee has provided, and the professional manner in which it has been delivered.

Lee Spendiff was recommended to me by a fitness instructor at Energie Fitness Centre in Dundee; I had been experiencing very tight calf muscles. I was made to feel very comfortable and the atmosphere is extremely friendly. The treatment I received was successful and the advice I received was concise and easy to understand.

I would not think of going anywhere else now and would recommend Lee very highly to anyone needing treatment

Lee Spendiff is a really competent sports therapist and general adviser on fitness and nutrition. Beyond that he really identifies with you and your problems. In my mid 40s after a knee injury over 10 years old and after lots of punishing football when younger I had been told that my knee could not really function properly for football again. Lee looked at the problem from several perspectives and came up with a treatment programme
that released pressure on my knee. I have played football again and I am making great progress on fitness following Lee's advice.

Jim Haslam

Professor at University of Dundee

--------------------------------------------

I have been running marathons for 25 years and have subjected my legs to plenty of punishment in that time, so its not surprising that lately they have been paying me back with various niggles and minor injuries. However, since starting to visit Lee for regular treatment my legs have been rejuvenated!

Lee is very knowledgeable and thorough in his approach and takes a holistic approach to treatments. In visiting Lee, I have not only benefited from the excellent sports massage therapy he provides but also from helpful advice on training and diet. I have recommended him to many fellow runners, all of whom have had a very positive outcome to their injury problems.

I would certainly recommend Lee to anyone who needs training and nutritional advice or massage treatment for injury or injury prevention.

Morag Taggart

--------------------------------------------

Over the past two months, while attending Lee's clinic for treatment, I have appreciated his processional skill and caring approach. Lee took a genuine interest in my physical ailments and his treatment has been most beneficial. I have no hesitation in encouraging others to make contact with Lee. His help will be invaluable.

I suffered from back pain for a couple of years due to my previous employment. I saw an osteopath which did help but I hated getting my back cracked. After a couple of months of a massage and stretching programme from Lee my back pain was almost completely gone. He is very professional and always gives great advice about training, healthy eating or anything else I ever need to ask him about. I am now able to go to Body combat again without being in agony the next day and I play Rugby which I never thought I would be able to not without getting back pain. I would definitely recommend Lee to anyone.

Jillian Brown

Nurse

--------------------------------------------

I suffered from back and shoulder pain for years and had undertaken two courses of physiotherapy without much improvement. At times I was finding it difficult to sleep without painkiller and carrying heavy bags at work was becoming more and more difficult.

I was impressed by Lee's professional attitude from the start. He completed a thorough assessment of my history and then provided individualised treatment that was continuously re-evaluated depending on my progress.

Unlike an ordinary massage which may relieve stressed muscles and tension for a number of hours, Lee provides treatment and advice which gives long-lasting results even for a chronic condition.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Lee to others. His friendly but professional method would suit so many people.

Krishni Thurairajah

I want to express how wonderful Lee was at our Healthy Living Day, he was professional, knowledgeable, and we have received a ton of positive feedback on how much our staff enjoyed their massage on the day. We certainly look forward to working with him again in the future.

I regularly attend the gym but recently developed an injury in my foot. After a visit to Bodymotiv8 however, Lee quickly diagnosed the problem and its cause. Since then he has designed a stretching programme for me; I am also receiving regular sports massage from him. The combination of both treatments is proving to be extremely effective and my foot is a lot better. As part of its holistic service, Bodymotiv8 also helps me to maintain a healthy weight and provides excellent training and nutrition advice. I would definitely recommend it to help you to feel and look better!

Lorna

Primary Teacher

--------------------------------------------

I suffered an injury to my back over three years ago, and have struggled at work and socially because of it. Having joined the gym, I found it difficult to do anything except swimming, until Lee helped me set up a regime. Doctors and physio had been no help to me and had never properly identified the problem. On a previous occasion I had sports therapy massage and knew it could help me. Lee straight away identified the root of my problem and has set up exercises to complement my massage therapy. After going to Lee for almost three months, my back is much better; I feel like I walk a foot taller after every massage, I never leave work early in pain and can sleep soundly. I am very thankful to Lee for all his help and enthusiasm, and would recommend him to anyone!

Katie

--------------------------------------------

Having been permanently bothered with a trapped nerve in my shoulder for at least five years, it was fantastic to be shot of the problem in the space of a few months after consulting Lee. His carefully planned exercise regime now has me as fit as ever and the strongest I have ever been. I would highly recommend his professional services.

Paul Brown

Solicitor

--------------------------------------------

I didn't know that there was anything wrong with me. Then one morning when I woke up my back and neck just froze. For three weeks I was looking to the left whether i wanted to or not. It was a nightmare! Not only was it very painful, but even the simplest things, like opening a door became a puzzle I had to think through in detail. Should I pull with one hand block it with the cup of tea I was carrying (thus burning myself and twisting my shoulder) or kick it open karate style with my right foot while facing in the opposite direction and run through it backwards?

My doctor referred me to a physio where I was given advice like keep warm and sort out your workstation before he decided there was no more need for treatment. A few weeks later I tried to make a start back at the gym. Within five minutes I was sitting in tears on the steps outside the class with shooting pains in my back neck and head.

That was when I met Lee...

I was told it would be a slow process - and it was. Lee started with a programme of massage and stretching exercises. The results were immediate. My headaches vanished overnight and I got a full nights sleep for the first time in months. My mobility increased and I was able to drive my car without the fear of parking in small spaces!!

Lee developed an exercise programme for me. It was a relief to be able to work through this without worrying that I might aggravate the injury and cause myself more pain. My latest programme concentrates on mobility, strengthening and stretching exercises for the injured area. For the first time in months I am able to push myself at the gym and I can see the results. A couple more months of this and I'll be in better shape than I've ever been. Nice one!

Lee's approach to massage is very holistic, thus taking into account the individuals total well-being. He is very knowledgeable and keeps me up to date with the latest research in relation to injury prevention, nutrition, and stress reduction. However, his biggest strength is that he makes it FEEL so INCREDIBLE.

Lee has been a fantastic and creative personal trainer. He always incorporates fun exercises into the workouts where I never get bored. He is also very knowledgeable in relation to healthy eating and has helped me stay on track with my diet without feeling deprived.

No more creaking neck and aching shoulders! A very professional therapist and knows his stuff inside and out. An absolute must for anyone who wants relieve from pain due to muscle tension or poor posture. Mine had gone on for years, now its gone.

Ruth Parkinson

Nurse

---------------------------------------------

I have seen a vast improvement in what was a recurring and debilitating back condition since beginning my course of treatment with Lee. He has pinpointed what he thinks are the root causes of the problem and has set about systematically correcting them, using a hands on approach that was lacking in all the previous treatment I had received. He has used massage techniques and has advised on various stretching exercises to help increase the flexibility and condition of the problem muscles, this in turn has given me the freedom to embark on a fitness and strengthening program designed by Lee, which I am sure will allow me to fulfill my long term goal of playing rugby again. Thanks for all your help!

Since I started getting physiotherapy from Lee, I’ve been pain free for the first time in four years.

Before starting physiotherapy with Lee walking upstairs was incredibly sore, doctors were recommending that I get knee surgery. After only three weeks of treatment, I’m already walking upstairs with no pain and can start to think about hill-walking again.

Donald Macdonald

Software Developer

----------------------------------------------------

I have been seen by Lee on several occasions over the past three months or so. His approach is very thorough and his assessment skills were spot on.

He carries out his treatments in a friendly, relaxed and professional manner.

Lee has certainly improved my back pain issues and successfully treated a recent shoulder injury. He has also given good advice on body posture and general fitness training.

I would not hesitate in recommending Lee’s services to friends or colleagues.

James Nicoll

Psychiatric Nurse

----------------------------------------------------

Lee has done more for my knee problems within one month than doctors have done in many years. After only four weeks following Lee’s fitness regime and sports massage I felt fitter and suppler than I have done for years.

As one of Lee’s older clients and previously unfamiliar with ‘gym culture’, I would recommend him without hesitation. His personal fitness regime combined with sports massage has benefited me enormously after only one month. I wish I had found him years ago!

Virginia

Lee illustrated problems with my posture which I’d just put down to they way I was made. He was illustrated that if not corrected in later life I could have major issues with my back. The work I was doing at the gym was actually making things worse. With a custom built set of exercises and a few sessions of sports massage I can notice the difference in the mirror and also I have no more neck ache. We also looked at my diet which has made my workouts more productive. I have lost 6% body fat gained muscle and feel and think more confidently.

Simon Jackson

Brassica Crop Manager

----------------------------------------------------

I arranged to meet with Lee as my work life is hectic but sedentary and I couldn’t always focus on my training on a regular basis. I eat a healthy diet and work out fairly regularly but need o build strength as I plan to train to participate in a Quadrathlon in 2007. I have also been finding that as I creep through my 30s it isn’t so easy to keep the weight off!

Lee has arranged various gym programmes for me to build strength, increase my flexibility and stay motivated. He has also taken me through a full fitness and diet assessment which was quite a revelation. He’s worked on the areas of development and gave me tips on my diet etc… To be honest, I now have better all round fitness, losing body fat, toning up generally, improved posture from developmental massage and eating more than I ever have before!

As a regular exerciser, I was very pleasantly surprised that I didn’t know everything about how my body works. I’d recommend speaking with Lee for an honest appraisal of your overall personal fitness and you pick up Lee’s absolute enthusiasm for the role and his commitment to make YOU succeed.

I spent years in pain and frustration going back and forward between my GP and the physio for pain killers and unsuccessful exercises. A chance meeting, an informal 10 minute discussion and a few simple tests with Lee finally identified a possible cause of my pain. After a full consultation and assessment the cause of my years of torment was pinpointed and I have been getting better ever since… the proof being that I stop following the programme set for me I am aware of the issue returning, start back on it and it quickly goes away… I am very grateful for his help.
