WHAT THE CLIENT'S SAY
RYTIS
Central London
TIRANA

"I've never tried indoor rowing before joining the Engine Coach, but I immediately fell in love with the sport. It's great for building strength, stamina and coordination.
However, the best part about rowing is Chris - he's very encouraging and always makes the experience more engaging. After just a few months of training I've found myself participating in rowing championships - BRIC (with just a second away from winning my heat!) and IIRC.
Once again, all with massive support from Chris. It was one of the most memorable experiences I've had - discussing tactics with Chris, getting to know the wider rowing community and pushing myself to be my very best."
"Before the lockdowns I used to train with Chris in London, now I've moved to France online Personal Training is working way better than I thought and within 6-weeks I am deadlifting my bodyweight for reps, it's only since videoing my technique you can really see the flaws and improve.
My partner also trains with Chris and has seen great improvements in his strength. Chris has helped us with buying the best equipment for our money which has really helped with a rounded program and saving money on unnecessary or unused equipment."

WHAT THE CLIENTS SAY...
EMMA
East London
“I caught the rowing bug after training with Chris. When lockdown meant I could no longer do classes or go to the gym, I invested in a Concept 2 rower. Chris’s online programming means I can train whenever I want. He’s watched videos of me, providing feedback which has hugely increased my technique.
My 2km time is down, I can row significantly further and I’ve lost weight...
can’t recommend Chris highly enough!”
DAVID
North West London
"I have been training with Chris throughout the lockdown, in a combination of strength and rowing.
During his one to one personal training sessions, he encourages and shows me all the exercises, so that when I can’t get to see him, I am still motivated to follow his programs on his true coach app.. In the past I always had some kind of niggling injury.
Chris really cares and makes sure I do exercises that protect all my joints. For me it’s been a lifesaver. Not only have I managed to keep up my physical fitness, but it’s mentally kept me going through some very dark periods. I’m convinced that it was partly thanks to my fitness regime that my COVID-19 symptoms were less serious than most.
Chris is the one and only best personal trainer, and I couldn’t recommend anyone higher."
DANIEL
North London
"I contacted Chris as I wanted to drop some weight and really understand how to get seriously fit for life. I was very inspired by watching Chris via his Instagram Channel for a long time before reaching out.
I started seeing results on the program in just 3 days! Within 2 weeks I was feeling much better and dropped 5kgs and felt much fitter."
JERRY
North West London
“Chris takes training to the next level and this has allowed me to achieve more than I thought I was capable of.
He has expertise in sports physiology and science, including nutrition, which he uses to plan my workouts.
I’ve built muscle, lost fat and increased my cardio fitness beyond what I thought was possible. His expertise on the rower has also driven me to be a competitive rower, joining championships which I would never have done before training with Chris.
The bottom-line is Chris’ expertise, encouragement and enthusiasm have brought my strength and fitness to a level I never thought be possible.”
BEN
West Sussex
"I have a rower in my garage at the bottom of the garden and Chris helps maximise the time so I don't have to think and keeps the training sessions interesting.
It always feels like he is virtually watching me, so it keeps me accountable which we all need! I used to be a very good middle distance runner but long term injures lead me to start rowing, something I feel will give me more longevity."
TAYLOR
London & USA
"After getting sent home from university and the various London lockdowns drastically changing my workout routines, I decided to start training with Chris. Motivation is something I struggle with and Chris has always been very encouraging and coaches me to work hard.
Rather than exercising for the sake of it, I now feel like I’m working towards goals and noticing differences in myself. I’m now back at university in the United States and Chris has been very flexible with time zones and unpredictable schedules. I was nervous to continue training once I didn’t have access to the exercise machines we have in London but I’ve been able to get just as much strength and training in with barely any equipment!
Chris is always up for conversation and there are always fun moments during training. His friendliness really makes me look forward to working out, even during the early morning training sessions!"
KAREN
London & Spain
"I have been training with Chris at home and at the gym for over 10 years and have been thrilled with the programs he provides.
When lockdown hit, I was worried about keeping up my fitness and strength. Seamlessly, Chris transitioned to on-line training. i still get his expert guidance and motivation (as well as a few bad jokes) every session and my fitness has continued to increase.
When I travel to our holiday home in Spain each summer, I continue to work with him, doing on-line strength and conditioning workouts. Training on-line with Chris has allowed me to keep my fitness level high no matter where I am in the world."

"I've never tried indoor rowing before joining the Engine Room, but I immediately fell in love with the sport. It's great for building strength, stamina and coordination.
However, the best part about rowing is Chris - he's very encouraging and always makes the experience more engaging.
After just a few months of training I've found myself participating in rowing championships - BRIC (with just a second away from winning my heat!) and went with Chris to Ireland for their National Championships, IIRC.
Once again, all with massive support from Chris. It was one of the most memorable experiences I've had - discussing tactics with Chris, getting to know the wider rowing community and pushing myself to be my very best."

"Before the lockdowns I used to train with Chris in his London studio, now I've moved to France online Personal Training is working way better than I thought and within 6-weeks I am deadlifting my bodyweight for reps, it's only since videoing my technique you can really see the flaws and improve.
My partner also trains with Chris and has seen great improvements in his strength."
STEPHANIE, BRIAN,
SAGE & DYLAN
West London
"Our family has been working with Chris for the past couple of years through a combination of in-person sessions and online live Zoom sessions.
We have done a combination of one-on-ones and family sessions with Chris to give us both the benefit of the individual attention on each of our areas of development and within our particular areas of interest as well as having a weekly family session to engage us as a family to stay active.
Chris has managed to motivate each of us individually by understanding how to motivate us and where and when to push us to get the most from each session. I should note that this includes motivating two teen girls during the fitness sessions, which is a commendable skill alone.
Chris is passionate about health and fitness and brings that energy to each training session. Chris keeps the sessions engaging, interesting, one might even occasionally say fun! He’s thoughtful about varying the sessions to maximize the fitness benefits across different areas of the body and to keep the training interesting.
Chris also explains the why’s and the how’s to the exercises to give us context to each session. Since undertaking training sessions with Chris, our family’s overall strength and fitness has improved dramatically. "
LIZZY
London & America
“I used to participate in football and athletics but I’ve been training with Chris for the last three years and I really enjoy it because I can focus on core, strength and cardio fitness. In the gym or on Zoom during lockdown, I have loads of fun focusing on building core strength along with upper and lower body.
We also mix cardio burning routines using sprints, the rower, bike or sled.
Chris also encouraged me to compete in an indoor rowing championship and trained me to achieve a PB and sixth place. The workouts are hard and push me to the limit but I really enjoy it.“
LINDA
Regents Park
“Chris is a great trainer .
I’m a woman in her 60’s who hadn’t trained for years when I started training with Chris
I had a number of objectives - to lose weight, get toned and generally to be healthy.
Chris has been superb . I’ve not only achieved my goals but exceeded them . He has helped reshape my body - I’m slimmer leaner and much stronger .
The care and thought
Chris has given my programme combined with his extensive knowledge has produced great results .
He knows exactly what my limits are and pushes me to achieve them whilst never going beyond my capabilities.
I’ve recommended him to many of my friends “
