Me again on the right




Are you happy when you look at yourself in the mirror or a photo?

Do you wish that you performed and felt better? 

A year ago I started a new gym on my own. I was so nervous but I am so very glad I did, my results have been on the up since I started and such a friendly gym. I've lost a stone in weight and put on alot more muscle and gained sooooo much knowledge.  I'm so excited for the next year. Thankyou again Daniel James Parker couldn't of done it without you! And I'm still here to ask you a million questions, send you ingredients of food and my weigh ins, ask advice, moan ( a little ðŸ¤”) get frustrated and annoy you... all daily!! ðŸ˜‚ - Lucy Cornwell

"Hi Dan, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for guidance, help and support with my nutrition and training, all of which was invaluable to me. I really learnt so much and made huge improvements…... Speak soon, Kelly  Moorman. xxx

This is the most effective, energy, money and time saving way to get in shape (in my opinion!)


I can provide you with the information and encouragement you need to change the way you look and feel.  

"I wish I knew when I started what I know now!"

With over thirty years experience in this field, I have condensed my knowledge to create the most time effective, energy and money saving ways to get in shape. Let me be your mentor and you will benefit from my years of experience without you having to put in the years!

Over this period of time I have helped many people get in shape and through training myself over this time, I have discovered and developed the most effective training routine (working your muscles against resistance) and the most effective nutritional approach for getting in shape!

Even if you can only commit to training once per week (One hour!) whether your goal is to tone up or build muscle, I can still guarantee you results. Twice per week would be better and if wanting to work each area of your body then ultimately I recommend training just three times per week with my routine. That's only 3 hours per week for maximum results!


Thanks Dan for helping me achieve my goals and making new ones. Which I thought would be impossible due to extensive injuries from a motorbike accident. I highly recommend Dan to anyone that needs a personal trainer. He is at the top of his game -  Graham Parsons

The main advantage of having me train you is the motivation and positive pressure placed on you to put in more effort with eating the right foods and with the training, ensuring that the way you exercise is the most effective for maximum results.

Consuming the right nutrition will get you more results than the training alone! You will get more results from consistently eating the right foods than you will from the exercise (Read that sentence again!)

Nutrition is the biggest part of getting in shape and requires the most effort, supplying the body with what it needs (nutrients) 24/7 compared to exercising for just a few hours per week.

Who want's to restrict themselves of food, feel hungry and lacking energy!? No one right? Well you don't have too and shouldn't be! Many times I have had my clients start eating more food, more often and the right foods, achieving amazing results in terms of becoming leaner and more toned.

If you restrict yourself of food yes you will lose "weight" but that weight will not be body-fat. The weight loss will be mostly water, muscle and maybe some bodyfat.

Big thanks to Dan for helping me with my goals and achieving them, giving me tons of information with nutrition and keeping me motivated. I always recommend The Gym for anyone looking to start their fitness journey or looking to join a new gym! - Kalah Mccully

Most people have an idea of what's "healthy" food and what's not, however most people do not eat enough of the right types of food or regularly enough throughout the day and on a consistent basis. Again the same applies whether your goal is to tone up or build muscle.

I go into more detail re how and why this works when working with my clients but trust me - I have applied this knowledge to enough people including myself to know that it works and is the best way to get in shape.

If you kept your food intake the same as what it currently is and started training effectively you will get some results but the better the nutrition is to support your training the more results you will get.

The combination of the right training routine (toning the muscles by working them against resistance) together with the right nutrition (supplying the body with what it needs to recover and repair whilst lowering your body fat so that you can see the shape of the toned muscles) followed consistently for long enough is the secret to getting in shape.

Just want to thank you for sharing your experiences and advice with me and Ayden while you trained us for a week. It boosted my confidence by reinforcing my workout principles and greatly improved many of my techniques : ) I am relishing the GAINS! And next time will be sure to ask you even more obscure questions, haha. I highly recommend training with you to anyone serious about bodybuilding!  - Steven Woodford

I have achieved great results from Dan's training in the past two months that are greater than those made over six+ months at my former gym in Covent Garden London. Dan is a great, calm, coach with a patience that gives you the confidence to continue to improve, week on week. I really look forward to my sessions and seeing how much I can improve and push myself to the shape I have always wanted.
Cheers Dan!
