Personal Training

Mike Heatlie and I have been working together on and off since 1997. He was the first personal trainer I ever worked with and although he was originally hired just to train myself, it wasn't long before he was working out my band mates also. Mike is completely passionate about health and fitness and is a wonderful motivator. He is tireless, compassionate and make working out something to look forward to. He is the Superman of my tour.

I would recommend his service to anyone - regardless of your current fitness level, Mike can help you improve. Encouraging, motivational, positive and a really nice guy.

Now I am 2 stone lighter than when I met Mike for the first time and absolutely delighted to be able to say it! People ask me if Mike is expensive but I can truthfully say that my sessions with him were worth every penny - and more! I have wasted far more money on diet books and aids that produced at best only a small or temporary weight loss.

Mike is just brilliant and I can't recommend him enough. He is funny and caring and he makes each session different and challenging, but most of all enjoyable.

Mike is extremely motivational and has encouraged me to think positively and re-establish my life goals. I now feel as fit as I did in my forties. I would highly recommend Mike Heatlie to anyone who is looking to improve their fitness level with a tailored package to suit their needs.

Mike's passion for his trade is both unbelievable and admirable and his smile just makes you smile, even when you are hurting. He is a man who thrives on results and seeing his clients achieve, seems to drive him even harder. Mike was the best thing that happened to me in 2011 and I am looking forward to the next changes he will help me make in my body - Mike thank you sincerely, you helped make an old man very happy! Best wishes.

I have worked with Personal Trainers in the past but never obtained the results I was hoping for. This all changed when I signed up with Mike. He took the time to understand my lifestyle then tailored an exercise and nutrition plan that helped me to achieve the results I wanted. Mike is committed to his career within Health & Fitness and it is impossible for his positive outlook not to rub off on you. I am now on my third block of training with Mike and would have no hesitation recommending him to others

Before I started working with Mike I considered myself to be pretty active with a reasonably good diet. Mike has helped me take my fitness to a new level by introducing me to resistance training and more intense cardio workouts. He has also helped me improve what and when I eat. As a results my body shape has changed (lost 26 lbs and 7" off my waist!) and I am now the lightest and fittest I have ever been. Mike's sessions are always focused and varied with a high level of intensity. He really can help you. Of course he isn't going to lift the weights for you but you will have his support 100%

Four months of seeing Mike twice a week has been fantastic, I couldn't recommend him enough. The sessions have been great fun, real stress busters and loads of people are commenting on how my body shape has dramatically changed (smaller, more toned yet still feminine). I've used personal trainers for about 5 years to get me out of the office and keep the weight down, and never before felt as good as I do now. The difference with Mike is that he really gets and enjoys what he's doing, lives it himself (hence a great role model) and explains to you the 'whys' rather than just the 'whats'

Mike has been the driving force behind my campaign. His sessions are fun, challenging and varied. I have weekly competitions which incentivise me to train between sessions. I have weight targets and advice on eating habits. There is variety including boxing. Mike is incredibly positive and professional and I would recommend him highly. 40 lbs in 8 months is a pretty good testimony

I have really enjoyed training with Mike. He is a consummate professional and so positive. He listens hard and I love his resistance training. He promised that we'd flatten my tummy without sit-ups and he delivered in spite of my scepticisim. He seems to understand women and their bodies and his workouts are focused and feel good. He takes his own professional development seriously and is always sharing new ideas on best practice. If I could afford it I'd have Mike and a housekeeper every day!

Mike Heatlie is the best trainer I have worked with. He is professional and consistent in regards to exercise and diet. In addition to motivating me to stick with the programmes that are laid out, he is a pleasure to be around in a work environment which he has proven time and time again over long trips that we have done together around the world

I used to think people who said they enjoyed exercising were simply lying, now I can honestly say I'm a convert. If your reading this review then you've already taken the first step in the right direction. Mike is a brilliant world class trainer and you wont find any evidence to the contrary. Stop trawling through reviews you've found the best trainer, make an appointment! You will not look back. Your only regret might be that you find yourself signing up to challenges you wouldn't have dreamt of before (West Highland Way - here I come)!!

Mike helped me blast my baby belly and get rid of the unwanted extra pregnancy weight. I started training with mike in late october and around 8 weeks later, just in time for christmas! I had returned to my pre-pregnancy weight! A one hour gruelling training session with Mike yielded greater results than hours of classes or training on my own. Not only did I lose the weight but I increased muscle mass and felt a great deal more toned. I would highly recommend Mike to get your butt in shape. Ta mike for helping me lose the baby weight! xx

Whilst recuperating from my 15th operation and following 20 years of ill health I decided it was time for this couch potato to reform her ways. It was with some trepidation that I emailed Mike and the response was amazing, his advice was superb and the attention to detail second to none. For me it wasn't about losing weight (although a pleasant side effect of my improved fitness was dropping 15lbs) it was about regaining my fitness and Mike has certainly helped me to achieve this. I couldn't recommend him more highly and I sing his praises to anyone who will listen

Amazing!!!‎‎ I started with Mike a few months ago because I'd always been over weight and tried the gym and diets many times. I felt really unhealthy!! Mike was so supportive I felt comfortable quickly and have lost almost three stone. Mike will support you with every aspect of a healthy lifestyle and it all just fell into place for me. I feel so much healthier and look better, don’t think I would have made the progress I have without Mike!!

Best Christmas Present EVER! Mike has been absolutely outstanding. After suffering with back problems for years, things had got to the stage where I was severely overweight and completely unfit. I heard about Mike and honestly thought that he wouldn't be able to help me but I have been proved wrong. In the four months he has worked with me, I can honestly say that I cannot believe the results. So far I have lost over 2.5 stone, my back has not bothered me at all and I can run on the treadmill - when I first went I could only manage a slow walk for 3 minutes so the improvement has been incredible.

Mike is an absolutely outstanding trainer, and I have loved working with him over the last couple of months. I started seeing Mike with a sceptical view of the real value of personal trainers- Mike is an exception to the norm and is unique in his personable, extremely experienced approach to you as an individual. I was already at a good level of fitness but Mike has pushed me far further than I have ever been pushed physically- improving my running times and overall wellbeing

Mike's overwhelming enthusiasm, motivation and passion to work with individuals is an excellent quality and I would confidently recommend Mike to anyone at all levels of fitness

The BEST personal investment I ever made was hiring Mike as my Personal Trainer. My weight was a little under 11 stone and had tried almost everything to gain muscle and size. But with Mike's advice on correct nutrition, exercise methods and frequency of exercise I started packing on the muscle almost immediately. I am now just over 13 stone in weight, and although (personally) I have a long way still to go, its primarily what I have learned from Mike that ensures I continually see results. I thoroughly recommend him, and really can’t thank him enough
