PIONEER HELPED ME ACHIEVE MY GOALS IN FAR LESS TIME WITH FAR LESS DIFFICULTY THAN I WOULD HAVE DONE ON MY OWN

Before joining Pioneer Performance, Gavin was struggling with a shoulder injury, low motivation levels & some unwanted weight gain exasperated by spending more time at home due to the lockdown.

Although Gavin had previously been seeing a personal trainer for over 5 years, he felt like he needed to be taken to the next level in order to get the significant results that he was looking for.

Now that Gavin has given up (almost all) of the takeaways and sugary snacks, he has been able to reduce his body weight by a massive 10kg! He has also learnt, "You cannot put a price on your health."

Gavin's Journey

"I now have a better understanding of what it takes to lose weight and I am much more disciplined with my food and my training. Pioneer helped me achieve my goals in far less time with far less difficulty than I would have done on my own"

What were your expectations and motivations when starting Personal Training?

"I wasn’t quite sure what to expect to be honest! I’ve trained for about 5 years previously with another trainer back in Brighton but that was starting from scratch and was a lot less structured so I was just slowly learning basic concepts and building up muscle mass."

"I was hoping Pioneer would be able to teach me the next level of stuff, like how to get lean and how to properly manage food etc. I was also motivated by getting a bit out of shape over lockdown, so needed a kick up the butt to get going again, I really benefit from accountability like that."

Did you have any hesitations or uncertainties before starting your journey?

"I guess I was concerned I’d lost too much progress or I wouldn’t be able to keep up with what was being asked of me, but those concerns melted away after my first session. Finn was very supportive and receptive, and I never felt stressed about the thought of any training."

What was your lifestyle and nutrition like before starting?

"I’ve been pretty active before lockdown. I trained 3 times a week and cycled everywhere, but lockdown and being unable to go to the gym took its toll. I trained in the flat 3 times a week when the gyms were closed, but my motivation was so low because of the lockdown. And then I hurt my shoulder, killing any drive I had to keep going with the exercise."

How has the change in nutrition and training impacted your lifestyle and energy levels outside of the gym?

"Energy levels are up and down because of the calorie deficit, but overall, I feel so much better in myself. My lifestyle is also much healthier, making better food choices, moving more, and having given up drinking regularly, I feel all around better than I have done for as long as I can remember."

What have you learned since working with your coach?

"The main thing I’ve learned is proper workout structure and how to be in a calorie deficit without losing much muscle. I was always hesitant about reducing my calories in case I lost strength and muscle, but I’ve learned what it takes to achieve weight loss without too much worrying if I’m doing it the right way or not."

What would you say to anyone who is on the fence about working with Pioneer Performance?

"You can’t put a price on your health! Pioneer helped me achieve my goals in far less time with far less difficulty than I would have done alone. I’d encourage everyone to work with a personal trainer, especially if they have no training experience. It’s like any skill you need to learn, 10x quicker with someone who knows what they’re doing."
