Hi, I’m Chris. Like many people, I was never a sports star in school and only started my fitness journey in my forties when I realized I needed to lose weight.

My first step was an aerobics session at a local leisure center, and from there, I explored a range of different classes. But it was weightlifting that truly ignited a passion in me. I’ve been on my own journey of discovery, and I understand what it feels like to be at the very beginning. My goal is to help you find your own path, build confidence, and discover a form of exercise you genuinely love.

Hi, I’m Chris.

Like many others, I was never a sports star at school and only began exercising and using a
gym, in my forties when I realised I needed to lose weight. I started my fitness journey at a
local leisure centre’s aerobics session before trying a range of different classes and then
discovering a passion for weightlifting.

At the age of 50 I was encouraged by a trainer to take part in a kettlebell sport competition
and won my first ever medal! That was followed by winning many more medals, breaking
British records and eventually representing England at international level. As running is
assistance work for Kettlebell Sport, I also ran two half marathons and was a regular face at
Colwick Parkrun until 2021.

Needing more challenge, I changed direction in 2020 and began exploring powerlifting,
competing with some bigger weights!

I am a parent and grandparent and taught in primary schools for 32 years, retiring from
teaching very recently. This gives me an understanding of the challenges of finding time to
work, care for family and exercise. My teaching skills help me break new ideas into bite size
pieces and support individuals to make progress at their own level.

All the above gives me understanding about how it feels to be a beginner and new to training as well as how to train at a high level. I have more than 20 years’ experience of using gyms and training. Many individuals feel nervous and uncertain about how to use weights in a gym – I did too when I was getting started.

My aim is to introduce people of all ages to the gym, show them how to lift safely and develop their own exercise habits leading them to feel physically and mentally strong long into later life.

I had a personal trainer before and didn’t notice any progress…but training with Derran has been a completely different experience.

Claire

I started to feel the benefits immediately, and now my shoulder is fixed!

Gregg

The thing that I value most about the PT aspect is the individuality

Peter

I’ve lost 33kg working with Derran at RWF!

Matt

I’ve already seen significant improvements that had previously evaded me no matter what I tried.

Andrea

I’m now walking again pain free!
