Tone Fitness was established in November 2003 by trainer Leighton Girling, with the aim of providing easily accessible personal training for persons living within the southwest region.
I have spent 8 years competing at high level within UK athletics. I trained rigorously to compete in the 200m sprint and decathlon. During this time I learned a lot from high-level coaches, assimilating the best techniques and methods I came across. The benefit of this is that my programmes are varied and challenging, with a strong underlying scientific base. I still compete nationally in time trial cycling and specialise in fitness associated training.
I have been working as a freelance personal trainer since 2002. During my time gaining qualifications I studied four years at Sheffield Hallam University gaining an honours degree in Sport studies.
I have a CYMCA Diploma in Personal Training and I am qualified to N.V.Q. level 3 on the Register of Exercise Professionals. This diploma was gained from Focus Training Ltd. I am a qualified corrective exercise specialist and specialise in injury rehabilitation and injury prevention. I frequently work with pre and postnatal clients and have more than 7 years of experience in this field. I always take a positive approach and know with dedication come results.
I have spent 2 years as an athletics coach, coaching athletes from all events at the Don Valley International Stadium (Sheffield). During this time I coached several hundred athletes to a competitive level. I like to stay up-to-date and take additional qualifications annually.
Since 2002 I have worked as a freelance personal trainer. The variance of clients and results encountered can be seen within my client testimonials. This includes 6 months working as a personal trainer at a top sports academy in New York. The United States is widely recognised as the world leaders within fitness training. During this time I trained athletes from a range of sporting disciplines, including the tennis player with the fastest serve in Asia and several other international athletes.
I have a large client base which I believe is testament to the results I am used to helping my clients achieve.
