Katie

Katie was struggling to stick to exercise while being a busy mum, her confidence wasn’t great and she didn’t like what she saw in the mirror. I helped her create structure and understand that being consistent was more important than chasing perfection, Katie was a typical all-or-nothing exerciser and once she realised that was holding her back, she went from strength to strength.

Client Wins:

Weight loss -21 kg

Learned how to fit in exercise while being a busy mum

Katie’s Comments: Forsyth Fitness is hands down the best personal trainer in Edinburgh. Sandy helped me get back on track after having my daughter. I was at my heaviest and really struggling to balance work, fitness, and being a mum. Sandy taught me to make time wherever I can, he taught me my diet is so important. The way Sandy explained I can still live and eat the things I like but with balance lose weight.
I'm now in one of the best places I've been in and it's all thanks to Sandy Forsyth”

Kim

Kim didn’t have much confidence in the gym and wanted to lean up for an upcoming holiday. Kim was by no means overweight but wanted a more toned, leaner look and to feel more confident in a bikini. By increasing her protein intake and focusing on compound lifts I helped Kim achieve her goal.

Client Wins:

Weight loss -5 kg

Gained Strength

Lost Fat

Improved Confidence

Kim’s Comments: “Sandy is warm, friendly and understanding as a person and a PT. After becoming stuck in a rut re going to the gym (I found myself just focusing on cardio), I realised I wanted more of a focus but also to build my confidence with weight training. Sandy took the time to understand my needs and goals and has been supportive throughout. His sessions give me both the motivation and confidence to train on my own, and the progress I’ve seen in just 8 weeks is incredible. I look forward to my sessions with Sandy, and learning from him. It is clear he is passionate about what he does and has an in-depth knowledge of health and fitness. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sandy to a friend, and if you’re just starting your fitness journey and or just feel like you need accountability (like I did) Sandy is your guy! ⭐️
