I started with Jules about two years ago. It was well into the pandemic and I wanted to live my life positively and constructively. In addition, a few years before that, I had survived a serious accident which involved brain damage and various problems as a result of that. For these reasons, I started working out with him.

He addressed each and every one of my problems. I did not find it either easy or pleasant at the beginning but as the weeks passed I noticed so many changes in me - not only physical though they were undoubtedly present - but also mental changes. He addressed my specific problems mainly to do with balance. He devised programmes especially for me. I had always thought that having a personal trainer would mean purely physical advantages and so I was astonished to find that I was progressing in mental terms positively as well; that I was finding a truly different attitude to life. My balance has improved enormously. My attitude to life is so much more positive. I rate the mental advantages even above the physical!

But there are physical advantages too. I was a bit of a weakling at the start. I began bench pressing on 18 kilos. Now I’m on 72 and I know I can go further.

Jules’ approach is essentially holistic. He is concerned with the whole person. He watches like a hawk, every response, every reaction and proceeds from that. There is not a detail of posture, or performance that he misses. He does not have a hardened agenda but proceeds in terms of one’s specific response in a particular situation. He is dedicated to the individual and the individual’s needs, physical, mental and nutritional.

I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is truly gifted. And essentially a therapist.

And I am transformed both physically and mentally and, despite my age, I have become a gym junkie. I love it.
