To try and give a better understanding of myself and what I provide to AnywhereFitness clients, here is a quick run-down of what I feel personal training is all about...

The relationship between trainer and client is one of constant development, starting with knowledge the trainer has acquired over many years as a fitness professional, as well as from the first point of contact with the new client.

Understanding the individuals needs, passions and drive in making such an important step is key, and as it is the first step it is often the most difficult. Many reasons can be to blame for this, including; low self image; uncertainty; embarrassment; lack of self worth and even lack of fitness - not forgetting the male ego.

With all of these issues and many more besides, it is vital to be honest and create trust in order for respect for each other to develop. With this in mind the trainer and client will gain the most out of their common purpose - which is to reach and pass the goals, dreams and aspirations of the client.

Take a look at the home page and various dedicated sections of the Anywhere Fitness website to find out more about what we can aim for together and how we achieve it, or read through some testimonials from a selection of my current clients below. You'll see that they come from a wide variety of backgrounds and age groups, which in itself is testament to the range of fitness regimes we can offer.

Customer Testimonials

Name: Adam

Occupation: Amateur jump jockey

I approached Graham and asked him if he could help me in improving my fitness levels to get to the next stage up. I was regularly attending gym classes in a fitness club and had a reasonably high degree of overall fitness. As an amateur jump jockey, Graham assessed my specific requirements and built a bespoke program of exercises to improve my overall performance. At 45 I was really pleased that I was still able to significantly improve my technique and overall fitness levels with good guidance form Graham and his professional set up.

Name: Anna

Occupation: Director

I'm Anna and I am a 46 year old business leader working in Newcastle. I have been training with Graham for over 10 years since I moved to the north east. I train because I'm far too lazy to be disciplined enough to train on my own frequently enough for it to make a difference. Graham also pushes me the extra mile. As I'm getting older, the stretching and core stability routines are particularly helpful for me.

Name: Chris

Occupation: Car / Kart Racer

I have been racing cars for the last seven years, winning two British Championships and finishing fifth in the World Championships. I returned to karting earlier this year and quickly discovered that my fitness was an issue. Karting is very demanding sport, with a great deal of stress put on the drivers' bodies. Since I began working with Graham my overall fitness is much better, helping with my karting performance and daily life. Within just three weeks I was feeling a noticable difference, and have gone from strength to strength since.

Name: Emily

Occupation: History Student

I train much more effectively and I am more disciplined when exercising with a personal trainer. It is easier to stay focused and motivated to achieve the goals set whilst also being fun!

Name: Lucilla

Occupation: Legal Consultant

I have been training with Graham for several years, 2-3 times a week. As I work in an office I find very little time in the week to exercise so I often go to see Graham at 6.30am. He is always full of energy and enthusiasm even if I am not at that time of day! Without Graham I wouldn't have the discipline to take regular exercise.

Not only does the exercise make me fitter,it also sets me up mentally for the days work ahead. If I can get through a challenging session with Graham I have the confidence to face any challenges that a day in the office brings!

My waistband has also reduced!

Name: Mark

Occupation: Company Director

I first visited Graham almost 10 years ago. Prior to that 20 years of corporate travel and a focus on career at the expense of health and fitness left me feeling I was on a downward spiral. I have worked regularly with Graham since and can honestly say I am significantly fitter now than I was 10years ago. I weigh less, have more muscle and massively more endurance. My leisure activities, sense of wellbeing and even my work have all benefited.

One of the best investments I have ever made!

Name: Matthew

Occupation: Engineering Student

Having a personal trainer pushes you to do that little bit (or a lot!) more every session, and you feel like you benefit much more from it. The sessions work to accommodate your personal goals and are fun at the same time.

Name: Nicole

Occupation: Very Busy

My name is Nicole; I am aged 48 and live in Newcastle upon Tyne. I lead a busy life with 2 children a large house and garden and a dog! I work part time in my husbands business and also spend several days a week on various voluntary jobs in Newcastle. My husband travels away on business frequently and consequently I am left holding the fort and running our active family life.

As a consequence of this I always had an excuse not to fit exercise into my hectic schedule and found myself gradually putting on weight, becoming less fit and increasingly more weary.

Graham Turner changed all this for me. He introduced me to a manageable exercise routine at home, was a fantastic motivator and within weeks of working with him I found myself with renewed energy, toned muscles I never knew I had and possessing far more energy.

I would not hesitate in recommending Graham Turner as a personal trainer and a great motivator.

Name: Paul

Occupation: Director

Graham's approach to personal training is meticulous. He takes into account his client's requirements and designs with great care the right programme to deliver the best possible results. From time to time, to keep the interest levels high, he changes the programme. If Graham were not there to keep me right, I know that my fitness levels, health and nutritional awareness would all be in meltdown!

Name: Scott

Occupation: Company Director

I have worked with Graham over the last couple of years and as a result I have seen dramatic positive results in personal fitness, general condition and overall weight loss.

The main system or methodology employed is a unique mixture of TRX training in an outdoor environment. The approach has had a significant impact on both my levels of motivation and focus. The outdoor and mobile nature of the TRX system is most definitely "more then the sum of its parts" and offers valuable outdoor time for a individual who "enjoys" a traditional office based work life.

I have no hesitation in recommending Grahams approach, skill and overall professionalism to any third party.
