"I used to think that personal trainers were for the rich and famous. After entering a charity raffle I was lucky enough to win a free session with Gemma Paddington. I was a little nervous as I was totally unfit and over weight after having my daughter and was seriously lacking in confidence.
Gemma arrived at my home on the booked day and within two minutes my nerves were settled. She did not judge me and made me feel completely at ease with her friendly and down to earth manner. She tailored the session to perfectly cater for my ability and gave me the perfect combination of motivation and encouragement. I was hooked by Gemma's enthusiasm and obvious depth of knowledge and experience and most of all by her belief in me.
Gemma has provided me with the highest level of personal training every week for the past 6 months, helping me with dietary advice, meal plans, nutritional information, amazing first aid treatment when I required it, home workout plans, support and encouragement.
I have absolute faith and trust in Gemma to continue to help me on my journey to regain my fitness and achieve my desired weight goal. The results I have seen from my training with Gemma so far have been fantastic, I feel fitter and have gained confidence to return to my past love of mountain biking and spinning. I also had the confidence and fitness to participate in a sponsored charity workout session alongside Gemma, and have plans for future fitness events. I have lost over a stone in weight, allowing me to return to wearing pre-pregnancy clothes and even purchase a designer dress for the first time in my life!!
We've all done the local gym membership and paid every month to sit and feel guilty that we've only managed to get there once or twice because we've not had the motivation to go, well Gemma is the solution to this! Arrange a time and a place and Gemma will be there at your door without fail to get you up off that sofa and moving towards the goals you previously only ever dreamed of!!
I personally feel Gemma is the Rolls Royce of personal trainers and I'm so grateful to have her in my life, I can't recommend her highly enough!"

"I was extremely overweight and the wrong side of fifty. I had tried every diet going over the years and even tried surgery but to no avail. I had visions of being in a wheel chair in the not too distant future. As a last resort I decided to try a PT. Gemma came to my home, we hit it off straight away. I explained what I wanted to achieve, which was to simply be able to enjoy life, walk further than from the front door to the car without being in pain. Gemma gave me a professional assessment and asked all relevant questions. I was concerned that I would not be suitable and asked Gemma if I was a ‘lost’ cause. Her reply was that I would be a ‘challenge’
I have been challenging Gemma weekly for the past ten months. I have lost three stones so far by changing my diet not dieting. The session Gemma devises is tailored just for me. It is varied and enjoyable and has given me a great sense of worth enabling me to ‘get my life back’
I walk without thinking, feel fitter and more positive and confident in myself. Gemma is encouraging, kind, really dedicated, a consummate professional. Thank you for believing in me. You are priceless!"

"I was a bit dubious about starting with a PT, I was unfit and a bit lazy! But from the moment I met Gemma she has been nothing but encouraging, enthusiastic and motivating. You definitely get the personal touch with Gemma, it’s more like working out with a friend then a PT. She does all the exercises with you and has NEVER shouted! The sessions are very varied and push me but not impossibly so. Gemma is always throwing in new exercises she has learnt to mix it up.
PT365 have also helped me on the eating side of things and with Gemma’s help I’m getting there. After falling off the waggon several times Gemma’s never given up on me! Try it! I’m sure you won’t be disappointed and will be back!"

"When I first contacted Gemma I had been losing weight for about 6 months but it had just plateaued and I didn't seem to lose any more, even though I was doing all the same things. I was a bit worried about training with Gemma as I thought I would feel very self-conscious next to her as she looks amazing, and I thought she might be really tough and shouty, but Gemma is absolutely LOVELY! She knows just how to push me a little and get the best out of me in a gentle and encouraging way. She is very understanding and easy to get on with. Since training with Gemma once a week I have consistently lost a pound a week without actually doing anything different! I now feel fit enough to tackle anything! My cholesterol and blood pressure have gone down loads too. Thanks Gemma! "

"I have been trying to get fit, healthy and loose weight but hated the gym and felt too embarrassed to contact a PT. She was a friend first but that put me off asking her. So glad I have now as she has finally helped me enjoy exercise and improved my diet ten fold without doing any weird fad diet. Very thankful xxx"

"I have been training with Gemma as my personal trainer for about 6 months. I have found her enusthusm infectious, she has a fabulous way of combining hard work with fun. I generally have 2 sessions a week and both sessions are always very different and challenging but always achievable. She has the brilliant skill of pushing you within your own limits and even make you challenge you own! After each training session I feel so good and look forward to the next. I would recommend Gemma to anyone who has already got a good level of fitness as it is her passion and she will help you achieve even more. I would encourage anyone who is just starting out to trust her because she comes with no judgement and no unachievable mission. She is a really lovely good natured person that wants to help her clients and is on the end of the phone if needed. I will continue to be a client and now a friend of Gemma so that I will continue a good routine of fitness."

"Gemma is a brilliant personal trainer, she is always full of energy, ready to motivate you & work you hard! I love the fact she works out with you, it makes u feel u are working out with a friend rather than having someone telling u what to do while they stand & watch. Gemma has kept me motivated, helped me loose my baby weight & get my confidence back
thank you!" Vicky Lucas (Facebook)

"Gemma’s deep knowledge of fitness and health, her boundless energy, and her ceaseless pursuit of pushing clients WAY past their perceived limit is why she delivers such brilliant results. I’ve lost weight and feel much more energetic and happier with myself since working with pt365."
