"Joel took the time to create a routine that met my needs and goals. He's been a pleasure to work with and a great trainer who understands how to get the best out of you. I am seeing the desired results from his programme and would definitely recommend him." Ben L, North London.
I'm Joel - I'm a personal trainer at the Crouch End Fitness Centre, a independent gym. I want to help you tone-up, gain strength & lose fat.
I'm really keen to help two types of people: (1) those who know they need to make a few lifestyle changes but struggle to stay on track- people who want to lose a few pounds / kilograms and tone up, be able to carry the shopping back a little easier, or have started running and want some good exercises to help with this. People who are juggling long working hours, their kids, and a social life also, and who want targeted, productive, straight to it sessions, and (2) those who are completely new to the gym, a little daunted by all the weights & machines and who want a safe introduction to a fitness centre environment from someone who is completely non-judgemental, and willing to take the time to guide them through exercises step-by-step.
If you think I can help, I offer a free half-hour consultation - this includes a chat to establish where you're at, a mini-session of a warm-up, exercises and a cool-down, and a summary plan after.

A little bit about me: I train at the gym regularly myself and my background is as a runner - I have completed a handful of marathons and regularly ParkRun. My marathon personal best is 02 hours 56 minutes in London in 2019 and my 10k is 36 minutes and 09 seconds. I have previously worked in a Runners Need. I enjoy training at the gym and running, and using my expertise to get the best of all my clients with simple tried and tested methods.

Services
Personal Training Plans
Fully structured, bespoke supervised programmes: Starting out, all customers are required to undertake a simple health screening to identify any areas of concern. In addition, I ask all customers to complete a fitness assessment induction. This is very important to gain an understanding of your base level of fitness and to set a base of parameters we can use to measure progress. Then we will put together a monthly plan with agreed sessions, goals and review dates.
Nutritional Analysis
With a Level 3 Certificate in Nutrition for Physical Activity, I am able to offer basic food intake analysis, using guidelines published by Public Health England and the NHS. This analysis is included in the bloc session plans of either four or six sessions.
