Delna Karanjia - I had 15 personal training sessions with Dan over the course of 3 months.
I found him to be really professional, enthusiastic and very knowledgable about the role of fitness and how he could best help me obtain my goals. I really enjoyed working with Dan - he kept our workouts interesting by changing them up regularly, and was always on hand to provide me with feedback on how I could better my technique. I achieved the personal body goals results I set out to achieve and was really pleased with the results. My confidence has really increased in the gym and it’s now become a part of my life - Thank you Dan! |

Dan is a great PT who takes time to listen to your needs and tailor the workout plans to suit your goals and abilities, and that keep you interested and motivated. He is always a text away with answers to your questions and if he doesn't know, he'll go away and do the research. This is what I especially appreciated. He didn't just provide a blanket workout that would work for anyone, he took into account every aspect and was willing to learn more about you. Couldn't recommend him enough!

I decided to train with Daniel to help improve my confidence with working out and to help keep me on track with my eating habits. I suffer with anxiety and find crowded open spaces difficult, Dan was excellent at supporting me with my training in the gym, he kept me focused and ensured I felt comfortable. My ability to lift harder weights increased and my technique improved with Dan as my trainer. This made me feel stronger and able to hit harder weights on my own without feeling conscious of my body and abilities.
When I struggled to make gym sessions Dan would train me elsewhere using different training styles to help keep me on track and motivated. Fantastic guy, very approachable and open minded."

"My initial goal when joining the gym was to just lose weight, however, due to suffering with back problems I wasn't confident on using any equipment apart from the cross trainer and bike. Since training with Dan not only have I achieved my goal of losing weight but I'm now also a lot stronger. The strengthening and weight loss has helped boost my body confidence massively, as well as my confidence in the gym. Dan tailors each workout to each individual person in order to help achieve their set goals, but ensuring it's a workout they are able to do. He's great at pushing you to keep going but listens to you when you say you can't do something, which for me is perfect due to my scoliosis. Dan is very friendly and approachable, and although the main focus of the sessions is the workout, you can easily have a laugh making the sessions more enjoyable. I would recommend Dan to anyone as he really is a great personal trainer."

From my first session to now I can say I have come a long way, as someone who struggles doing the simple things like squats to being capable of doing much more is all with the help of applied fitness.
He has worked on my weaknesses and turned them into strengths with his motivation, which has helped me from thinking I can’t too I can.
He always puts in 100% and dedication on working on your tailored fitness program. I am happy with the results and I am happy to say I am training with the best, looking forward to achieving my goal with applied fitness.

The most amazing trainer I have ever meet listens to everything you have to say and what you want to work on. He is always a txt away when questions need answering and he puts you to your limits and makes you realise how strong you actually are. He is really bubbly and always makes you laugh throughout your session. He always has advice to give about your food which is really good and also, he always asks how you are and how’s your day. A trainer should always do the little things which mean a lot to his clients. I would highly recommend him the best trainer ever.
I have seen a big difference in my body. Which I don’t think was achievable without Dan. He always has your workouts planned.

Debbie Tyler –
I have recently overcome a health scare which prompted me to aim to become fitter and also try and lose weight. I was put in contact with Daniel, who is a lovely man who cares about the people he is training. He is always by my side during the sessions and listens to me concerning any health and fitness issues I have. He is able to reconsider any plans training session work out if I ever arrive feeling out of sorts. I have definitely noticed an improvement in my overall fitness and stamina and I am able to achieve more with each passing week. I take part in a wide variety of interval training techniques aimed at specific body areas. He pushes me to always do a little more but he knows when I reached my limit any is very patient. Daniel is willing to chat to me via text if need be. I’m very happy with the personal training on receiving from I’ve received from Daniel and will continue to see him regularly.

Training with Dan is incredibly easy. He pushes you, but without needing to bark or get angry - You feel pushed yet relaxed at the same time!
I have lost a lot of weight in a short space of time - because I’ve been committed to following Dan’s advice. Dan will provide all the evidence-based info he can and guide you on diet as well as exercise routine and posture.
I ask a lot of questions anyway but Dan answers everything he can, he admits if he doesn’t know, and goes away and research’s it. I asked the same questions over and over, such as which muscle groups were using when doing various exercises - but Dan never complains at repeat questions as he appreciate you taking an interest in getting it right!
Dan will reply when he can outside of sessions too, not many PTs do, and it all really helps.
I would definitely recommend Dan - his relaxed but ‘pushing’ approach is easy to get along with, and he provides as much info and support as he can. The greatest part of an actual session is that you do a mix of everything, instead of just boring ‘arms day 1’, ‘Chest and back day 2’ ‘legs …’ etc.

Niamh McKinney-
I started working with Dan in an attempt to lose weight and improve my overall fitness. What I have achieved in the eight weeks I trained with him was much more than that. My fitness levels and strength has massively improved and I am now doing exercises I would never have attempted on my own. As well as this I have a lot more confidence in myself and my ability thanks to support and encouragement throughout each session. I definitely enjoy going to the gym more, being able to understand the benefits of certain exercises and understand the importance of eating right. Dan is fun, energetic and very committed to working with you to achieve your goals, tailoring the program and sessions around the individual. I would highly recommend down to anyone looking to improve their fitness, self-confidence and lifestyle.

I started going to the gym and would just do basic cardio that didn’t feel I was having great result so I decided I would find a personal trainer and so I started my sessions with Dan. The sessions I had with Dan were so beneficial, not only in the physical ways they helped my body become stronger, but they also helped me so much with my confidence. Before my sessions I was too shy and felt intimidated to go in the weight room alone, after a few sessions of learning how to use different weight equipment I started to feel more confident, and when going to the gym alone would go into the weight room and do whatever I wanted, without thinking about what everyone else was doing. I would definitely recommend Daniel Grimes as a personal trainer and it’s safe to say the sessions I’ve had were worth every penny and helped me gained a lot of confidence and knowledge within the gym, so thank you!

I’ve been training with Daniel Grimes for about 7 months now and I’ve lost about one stone since then. I feel so much stronger, healthier and in shape than ever before. He is an amazing trainer! I’ve learned quite a lot about training and nutrition from him and have finally found a routine that I can continue to work towards my end goals.
Besides the actual in-person training, he keeps in touch between sessions with texts and emails to keep me motivated which is very encouraging.
Daniel is really easy to talk to and fun to train with that you would never feel under pressure in his company as gym atmosphere can be quite intimidating for some people.
Besides all that Daniel is truly an awesome person who genuinely cares about his clients. Anybody looking for a bespoke training in a friendly yet professional environment with great results I would highly recommend him.
