 Nigel O'Connor - Personal Trainer in Basingstoke

"Nigel has been my personal trainer for nearly eighteen months, and during that time my fitness and ambitions have come on in leaps and bounds, culminating in completing my first half marathon in a time of 2 hours and 16 minutes, a week short of my 53rd birthday.


I could never have done this without Nigel’s encouragement, expertise and enthusiasm. Having been a member of the ‘I can always think of something better to do than go to the gym’ brigade, his training sessions are something I have come to look forward to.


Training programmes are constantly reviewed and updated and his knowledge and interest in nutrition means he is able to give valuable advice, whether you are training for a particular event, or just want to get fit and (as in my case) stop everything descending south..!!


I regard Nigel as a friend as well as my personal trainer and would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who needs some encouragement to keep up with a fitness regime.

Next year, the London Marathon…..(Nigel’s idea)"

Personal Statement:

I am a highly motivated personal trainer in Basingstoke who will deliver training sessions with enthusiasm and will adapt conventional exercises to ensure that exercise remains exciting and fun. I will closely monitor your progress to ensure your goals are achievable and met within a realistic time scale. I strive to keep my clients happy and healthy and have many testimonials at hand for request.

"I have been training with Nigel at the gym twice a month for a year and in that time I have been given the support, persuasion and motivation to kick start my fitness . Along with fitness training Nigel has also given advice on dietary matters which has always been helpful. The year has seen my fitness increase dramatically and the centimetres drop away.
Nigel is very keen to impart his knowledge and his belief in fitness to his clients and support and help them to meet their individual needs and goals.


Nigel has a gentle persuasive  manner that before you know it you are doing things that you would not of realised you were able to do , for instance I had a real fear of running on a treadmill but with Nigel’s support and persuasion I was attempting what I considered the impossible. 

His manner is empathetic but encouraging to your particular needs but he also makes training varied so no one session is the same which is more interesting. Training with Nigel has been made much easier as he is very down to earth and always been able to smile and be very positive in his approach. I have always found my personal training sessions to be fun , hard work and beneficial. I always feel that I am being pushed to my potential.


Over the past year Nigel has always been very reliable and his delivery of programmes has always been timely.


I believe that Nigel is extremely trustworthy and that maintains his client’s confidentiality which i believe to be extremely important as the information that is held is very personal and sensitive.


I would in essence have no hesitation in recommending Nigel as a personal trainer."

"Nigel has been my personal trainer for 18 months. For the first 12 months I saw him every 2 weeks as initially I felt I needed some encouragement to keep up with the training programme, and since then I've been seeing him every 4 weeks.
 
Although I had been a regular gym member for a couple of years working on my own before starting with Nigel,  I found the structured approach to training offered by Nigel to be very helpful. He was careful to take into account my aims and abilities at the start of the programme, and throughout monitored my progress by taking measurements on a regular basis.
 
After 18 months I must say that I have noticed a marked improvement in my fitness, and this is backed up by  measurement results - my body fat percentage has dropped from 19.5% to 14.8%, my weight has increased by 4.5kg - meaning I have gained 4.5kg of muscle - and got rid of some flabby bits!
 
Throughout the last 18 months Nigel has always been available to offer good advice and he has taken a personal interest in my progress. In my opinion he has a very professional approach to his job and now that he is moving on to pastures new I am sure that he will continue to do the same."
