About:

Filbert is a Personal Trainer and Strength Coach who began his coaching journey in 2014. With a background as a competitive athlete, he has spent over a decade training and coaching both on the court and in the gym, developing a strong understanding of strength training and physical performance.

His experience extends beyond general fitness. Filbert has worked with clients dealing with common knee, shoulder, and back issues, adapting workouts to their needs and helping them return to regular training with greater confidence. He focuses on practical movements and manageable progress, making training approachable while still challenging clients to improve.

Filbert creates structured programmes around each client's goals, fitness level, and physical needs. Whether someone is getting started, returning to exercise after a setback, or looking to improve their performance, he adjusts the training to suit the individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

With his competitive sports background and coaching experience, Filbert also understands the importance of staying active, training consistently, and taking care of the body along the way. His goal is to help clients make progress they can maintain while enjoying the process.

Our Testimonials

After interviewing 5 personal trainers, I decided to engage Filbert based on his experience and knowledge. My main goal is to have him help me with my recovery post Discoplasty(day surgery) for my back issues and for pain management. If you're looking for a personal trainer who can help you achieve your physical goals, look no further. I've been training with him for over 6 months and I can confidently say that he's one of the best trainers out there. Not only does he have extensive knowledge of pain management, fitness and nutrition, but he's also incredibly motivating and supportive. He pushes me to work harder than I ever thought possible, but he also knows how to tailor his approach to my individual needs and limitations. Since I started training with him, I've seen great results. I am 80% pain free, lost some weight, gained muscle, and increased my overall fitness level. But more than that, I've gained mobility and a sense of empowerment that I never had before. Filbert’s good knowledge, experience and best of all - his dedication to his clients is commendable. Thank you Filbert!

Under Filbert's expert guidance, I have achieved remarkable progress (which I am certain would've been tough otherwise) in my fitness journey. Filbert brings a wealth of knowledge to every session, tailoring the workouts to my individual needs and limitations. His ability to explain complex exercises in an accessible manner has made our fitness routine both enjoyable and educational. What sets Filbert apart is his unwavering encouragement – even during moments of doubt, his positive reinforcement kept us motivated. Thanks to Filbert's personalized training program, I have witnessed significant improvements in muscle tone, strength levels, and overall fitness. I wholeheartedly recommend Filbert to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, motivating, and results-driven fitness professional. His commitment to our success has truly made this past year an incredible and transformative fitness journey.

I have worked with a lot of personal trainers in my life, and Filbert is one of the best. He is motivating, knowledgeable, and adaptable. Rather than use a cookie-cutter programme, he takes the time to understand the customer’s goals and adjusts the sessions continuously. I would strongly recommend Filbert to anyone who wants to be healthier through exercise.

Filbert might as well change his name to Filbert the Fantastic. He listens to you, knows his s**t, and understands from the get-go what will help (and what won’t). As a perpetually-injured footballer, golfer and tennis-er, all his sessions are tailored to my every need, be it prepping for a game the following day or rehabbing a particular muscle. He comes with a vast array of equipment, ever-changing workouts, and is a modern hybrid of a trainer, coach and physio. Give him a shot—your body’s gonna thank you.
