What customers say
★★★★★“I very rarely give 5 star reviews. Here is why I could not give Athlete Always fewer than 5 stars. I started working with Alex a year ago, after recovering from a double hip replacement. It was wonderful to be healthy and free from pain again, but I had not been able to exercise freely for a couple of years and wanted to build up my strength and fitness again safely. Alex took the time at the outset to understand my situation, priorities and goals, and regularly reviews progress against them. Over the last year, working with Alex has not only improved my physical strength and fitness, but has also restored my mental confidence in my ability to exercise safely. I work hard in our one in-person session each week and do my homework of two home-based sessions, via Alex’s app. In return, Alex continually tailors my programme to my needs - challenging me to do more when I need it or reminding me that sustainable progress takes time - with his trademark professionalism, humour and kindness. I rarely give 5 star reviews. But Alex and Athlete Always deserve it.”
★★★★★“Working with Alex has been amazing! I'm in Japan and he's been helping me get over a lower leg/ knee injury so I can get back to playing badminton. With his help, I was able to build up strength progressively back in my legs and have a mindset change as I learned to listen and work with my body, instead of pushing through the pain. Could not recommend more! If you're thinking about getting over an injury, definitely work with Alex at Athlete Always. Happily back playing badminton now and so much more!”
★★★★★“Working with Alex has been a fantastic experience. He is incredibly knowledgeable, really supportive and genuinely cares about his clients and their progress. I feel stronger in my body and I'm more knowledgeable about how to keep my body in balance, in terms strength and mobility. Alex has also been great at adapting plans for me to fit my lifestyle and other exercise activities. I do pole fitness, so it's been a great way for me to develop establish a cross training routine. I feel confident in the gym again. I would 100% recommend!”
