	I 've suffered from back problems for several years and whenever I've tried to get fit I've ended up over doing it and setting myself back. I wasn't sure I needed a personal trainer but thought I should at least give it a go rather than remain in a rut. My main concern was feeling pressure to push myself through pain and end up causing myself further injury. I needn't have worried as one of the best things about Tom is his ability to listen and adapt training to suit an individual's needs. Tom started me on a course mixing core strength with cardio which was a great balance. I'd feel like I'd had a work out but never felt as though I'd pushed it too far. If there was ever a niggle or something I felt uncomfortable with, Tom would tweak the program slightly to make sure I kept up my confidence and got the full benefit of the session. Another big plus was the way Tom mixed up training so that things didn't get boring and would gently ramp things up, almost without you knowing so that you'd actually achieve more that you first realise. It's been a pleasure working with Tom and both my strength and all round fitness has come on a long way. I still get back pain from time to time but usually if I've missed a session or have forgotten simple things like good posture. Tom has given me the confidence to train and I'm looking forward to playing sport this summer without the fear of causing any added injury. Rupert Raby

	I'd got to the stage of no return. Stamina, strength and balance all in big decline and I was heading towards 60. First I gave up smoking which meant I put on weight, I then fractured my tibia at the knee so thing could not of got any worse. I knew just joining a gym would not be the answer - I'd feel self-conscious and after a couple of visits I'd give up. My niece put me on to Tom and because of him I have now been exercising for thelast 6 months. Tom varies the exercises a lot which means I don't get bored and he pushes one just the right amount. It also good to know you are not wasting your time doing the exercises incorrectly and are less likely to do yourself an injury. Strength, balance and stamina have improved and the body is looking more toned which other people have noticed - so much so, that some on my sisters have even started to think that exercising may not be such a bad thing after all ! Therefore anyone out there thinking they have left it too late the answer is no. Just get in touch with Tom and start training. Penny Boultwood, 59

	I was stuck in the same routine and needed a boost and Tom has really motivated me. He's tailored-made programmes that work for me to suit my injuries. I have a busy work schedule, and Tom is really flexible so I can do early morning and late eveing sessions which really helps. Working with Tom has made a real different and the results are showing.

	Before I started working out with Tom I had been member of my gym for years but never found the right routine or ambition to get really fit. Tom took time to analyze my strength and weaknesses and tailored a program to me that was fun and challenging. Each session was different without losing focus of the overall goal. After a couple of weeks he suggested to partake in a triathlon. I would have never thought I could get up to speed in time but Tom's training plan gave me the needed strength and endurance to compete. It was an amazing event. Now three month later – I am preparing for my next triathlon. I am feeling fitter than ever and the fact that my jeans are a lot loser is a very welcome side effect. Ina Lessenich, 26

	I wish to pay tribute to Tom Robinson of Robinson Fitness ltd , because prior to me training with Tom, I had not worked out for as the best part of 11 years and had given up completely on ever achieving my personal fitness goals. I had been in and out of gyms, and not really been motivated. Through Tom’s training knowledge and style, I have both lost weight, built up endurance, and I look and feel so much healthier and fitter. I look forward to training with him and he puts you the client first all the time. Tom draws on so many different influences, yet the training programme he designs specifically for you has structure, balance and helps you the client get the most of want you want to achieve in the shortest period of time without any kind of cheating. He believes in you even when you have given up. With Robinson Fitness you get variety, structure, proven knowledge and equally important the sessions are fun and fulfilling. You benefit from regular fitness tests and just recently, on mine I have managed to hit the targets required for the running test for the Royal Marines and this at 41 years of age.!!! I would readily recommend Tom Robinson and Robinson Fitness to anyone. Gerard Colaco

	I have been going to the gym 3/4 times a week for years, although it kept my weight down, I never really saw the results I wanted. I sort of accepted that maybe it wasn't possible to change the shape of my body. I wasn't sure any exercise regime would work for me however after combining some of my usual workouts with a couple of sessions a week with Tom; I began to see a change in my body shape, after just a few weeks! And I was enjoying the workouts! Racheal James, 23

	My sessions with Tom have been fantastic. I thought I'd find a personal trainer awkward and a bit daunting - but it wasn't like that at all. I've gone from feeling unfit and frumpy to being fitter, stronger and more healthy than ever before - not bad for a woman in her forties! Even at the start when I was really unfit, Tom put me at ease and created sessions that were challenging and fun without being stressful or too difficult - so I always felt as though I was doing well. I can't believe how much of a difference it's made in such a short length of time. Andi, 46

	'Tom was great to work with and a fantastic personal trainer, motivating yet kind! He gave me one on one boxing instruction and I really felt the benefits as well as enjoying myself whilst exercising, my ultimate goal! I would happily recommend him to anyone who is looking for a personal trainer' Fiona Compot, 26

	‘I had lacked motivation and a kick start to my training for some years; I was recommended to Tom through a friend and had doubts to whether I could keep up training at all. One year now after our first initial session, I now regularly train at the gym on my own and continue to train with Tom. I feel he more than provided the kick start I needed, motivation in the early days of training and set idealistic goals and targets for me which I have achieved already and am now working towards new targets such as my first 10k this summer. I look forward to the future a lot more and continue training with Robinson Fitness.’ Xante Ocravez , 32
