Hi, I’m Tom.
I’m a personal trainer at West 4 Gym in Chiswick, and my focus is strength.
A bit about me
Before going freelance I spent several years at the Hogarth, working with a lot of clients who were coming back from injuries or rebuilding their strength. For over two years I also taught on the Hogarth Academy course, training people to become personal trainers themselves.
Becoming a dad in 2020 was a huge motivator for me. I wanted to be as fit and healthy as I possibly could, not just for now but for the long run, and that still drives my own training every week. It’s also what I want for the people I coach.
My focus is strength: getting people lifting well, building muscle and losing fat in a way they can keep up. Most people I work with have tried on their own and struggled to stay consistent, so I keep things simple, explain why we’re doing what we’re doing, and log every session in my coaching app so you can see your progress.

What training with me is like
Every session is one to one and every rep is coached. We get your technique right first, then build from there. Your plan fits around your week, you’ve got WhatsApp support between sessions, and every session is logged, so we can both see how you’re getting on.
We train at West 4 Gym on Sutton Lane North. Gym access is included, so you don’t need a membership.
