Commando Fitness - Testimonials

“On my recent trip to Spain I have found the ultimate Personal Trainer, Karl. Karl’s knowledge of the science behind fitness and training, along with the thorough fitness test he carried out enabled him to provide me with at tailor made program. The program achieved the exact goals I wanted, plus it gave me such and insight to my body and fitness level.
Throughout every session Karl worked out along side me constantly encouraging me to help me maximize my time with him. He crafted each session maintaining the same goals but because of the variety they never became boring or monotonous.”

I am 57 years old and have been training with Karl for the past 18 months. When I first started with him, due to going through the menopause, I had lost all my self confidence, and although I was still going to the gym had very little motivation, and had very sore knees having had an operation on them a few months before. Karl has put me back to my old self. I've lost weight, I now run 3 kilometers with him and he makes my gym sessions very interesting and I really look forward to going three times a week and my knees are now in perfect working order. My self confidence has completely returned and because of it I am now doing things that would never have attempted a few years ago such as absailing, white water rafting, zorbing and sky diving (doing my second childhood thanks to him !). I can't thank him enough for giving me my life back. I love him !!!

World-class trainer......"I have never returned from a training session with Karl feeling worse than when I started!"

I could be! With Karl's enthusiasm every training session has been a pleasure. Sometimes Karl has had to push and at other times pull, but he has changed my life. I am fitter,leaner and subsequently much healthier than six months ago. Due to my occupation as a dentist my back had always been a problem. With Karl's help and advice my posture has been corrected and my back strengthened.

After training with several personal trainers and playing football 3 times a week I thought I was reasonably fit, I then met Karl. Before we trained I was thoroughly tested from my body fat % right the way through to my lung capacity and efficiency. Karl then presented me with a plan that was simple, easy to stick to and most importantly one that I can now see results from. After our first training session I realised that I was far from the level I thought I was but with Karl's enthusiasm, energy and persistence I eventually got my fitness level and my strength up to a good level. Unlike other trainers who told me what to do but did not participate in any activity Karl is there every step of the way, running with me, lifting weights with me and pushing me to my limits. I can’t recommend Karl high enough and anyone that uses him won’t be disappointed with the results.

Hi Karl
I just wanted to thank you for a great week. I have been in touch with Rachel who has now lost 21lb and she is feeling great. I have kept up with the morning regime and although a little disappointed on the day only losing 5.2lb - I have now lost 11lb in total and feel totally energised. Exercising outdoors just seems more fun and real. Your motivation and just the right amount of firmness was just what everyone needed. (Although I still can't believe you made me come back down that hill and do it again)
I hope your business in Spain really takes off and you get all the success you deserve.

Best Wishes

I’ve just had the great good fortune to be trained by Karl during my week at the Camp, with brilliant results: my cardiovascular fitness, strength and muscle tone have increased significantly and all those too-small clothes are back in pride of place in the wardrobe.
If you’re looking for a complete approach to fitness, then Karl is the trainer for you – his workouts are varied, challenging and always fun. He’ll keep you motivated and ensure maximum payback from every ounce of effort you put in.
Karl, I wish you and Commando Fitness every possible success and if you’re ever looking to set up a personal training business back in the UK, I’ll be at the front of the queue!

Just wanted to thank you for a fantastic, but hard week and workout at the Advanced Fitness course at The Camp in Scotland. Your enthusiasm, knowledge and motivation appears to know no bounds. It was tough at times but worth it and I have returned with a determination to continue on the improvements I have made during the week.

Hi Karl!

I just wanted to say thank you for an amazing week at "Advanced Fitness Camp"!

You are an amazing instructor blessed with the patience of a saint, full of enthusiasm & encouragement and you obviously totally love what you do 100%.

You have the skill to motivate even the most stubborn person ..... and adept at tailoring a group training session so that everyone in the group benefits - from the fitter folk to the folk struggling without anyone feeling inadequate.

Also, thankyou so much for all you encouragement and support during the mountain biking - you must've gotten sick of picking my bike up !

Its a shame you're based in Spain and not Scotland......

Good Luck with Commando FItness.
