I returned to fitness after an intensive course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Alex has been my personal trainer since 2014. I was overweight, very unfit and still suffering from the effects of my treatment. Alex showed considerable patience, understanding and compassion while tailoring a fitness programme to my needs. He is always polite and professional but still manages to make the sessions fun, interactive and challenging.
My fitness has gone from needing a 10 minute lie down after walking my daughter to school when I was at my worst, to now doing a 30 mile bike ride and still having energy left at the end of the ride. Always enthusiastic, Alex has varied my programme over the years. He studies and uses his knowledge to encourage all clients to push themselves further and my fitness has improved immeasurably.
I own a veterinary practice and have a young daughter so have a difficult schedule. He has also provided me with a diet and discussed it with me at length, encouraging the changes that are necessary to improve my fitness and weight loss. Alex has been incredibly flexible and fits around my busy life, for which I am grateful.
Alex has a passion for his work which is both refreshing and infectious. He has a strong work ethic and takes pride in training a wide range of abilities, ages and levels of fitness. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex for people who are thinking about improving their fitness.
It is a work in progress but my story does prove that anyone can exercise and anything is achievable!

I was suffering from poor health in regards to high blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis, always feeling fatigued and tired.
Until one day I got a big wake up call from the doctors after a blood test. I'm so grateful I listened to the warning signs and took that first step in turning my health around! I decided to get Alex's help in transitioning to a plant based diet. 4 weeks later my bloods were retaken and I passed with flying colours! This is not where the story ends though.
After the all clear from the GP, I noticed I had so much more energy from changing my diet and I noticed I could walk the dog more and more often. I even had so much energy that I decided to sign up to my local gym for the first time in my life!
I bought a fitness program from The Fitness Lane and Alex explained how to get the most out of my gym time... I lost over 1 stone in the first month! The weight kept on dropping off for the next 5 months with a total weigh loss of 2 and a half stone!
I thought Id share this story as I realise how important it is for family members and friends to be in good health. Unfortunately we cannot always take it for granted and where possible we should all try and do our best to live a healthy lifestyle. Its great to be buzzing with energy and upbeat with life again.

Thanks to The Fitness Lane these are my before and after shots of my change over the past year! I've always known Alex from school and knew he was the right man to help me out. I've always wanted to be in shape and physically fit but never had the understanding to do this, until I started personal training session with Alex. A year later and I have exceeded my goals and I feel great. I would recommend The Fitness Lane to anyone experienced or looking into getting started in fitness.

In the past I have gone through lots of workout DVD's, diets and gym memberships but nothing seemed to keep me interested or motivated any longer than a month & I soon put the weight back on that I had lost. In January I was determined to lose the 3 stone I had put on over the years, I started off with general keeping fit and dieting and was able to lose the 1st stone but I quickly felt myself slipping back into old ways - this was when I was introduced to Alex.
I have had a PT session with Alex once a week since March and it is amazing to see how far my fitness has come and my whole general lifestyle has changed. He writes up workout programmes for me to do in between sessions as well as nutritional plan (which doesn't leave me hungry, its just clean eating). For anyone who has tried countless diets or can't seem to find the motivation to get into shape, then Alex is definitely your answer! Without his professional advice and tailored workout programmes then I wouldn't have been able to reach my weight goal or be as fit as I am today.
Huge thank you to Alex for helping me reach my target- could not recommend him enough!
I joined the gym July 2016 as I felt depressed after being called fat and overweight. So due to health and knowing I had looked better. I have focused hard for my daughter and partner for a healthier lifestyle. I started aqua and decided to try a bootcamp class that's where I meet Alex Lane who has encouraged me and pushed me which I'm truly grateful for. I also started his abs class. Plus yoga and Pilates which alex recommended. Thanks to The Fitness Lanes group classes and Alex's support with my fitness, I feel great about myself again. My starting weight was 19+ stone size 22 I could off cried I was that big. I'm now juggling between 12 1/2 to 13 stone size 14 on the majority of outfits.

Cheers for everything The Fitness Lane. As a junior rower before I wasn't doing too well in races but now after all the help you've given me and all the training you've helped with I am now back at peak performance and doing a lot better in races with increased energy, strength and stamina. I've really enjoyed the workouts and you've been so helpful with the diet coaching, feeling on top form! Best decision ever to contact Alex and train at The Fitness Lane.
Thanks for everything
