SOUND FAMILIAR?

You’re Busy. You’ve Tried Before. Nothing Has Stuck.

You’ve got a demanding job, a full schedule, and you’ve tried the gym, the diets, and the programmes that promised everything. They didn’t fit around your life. So they didn’t last.

That’s not a willpower problem. That’s a programme problem.

At Forsyth Fitness, every plan is built specifically around your schedule, your goals, and your lifestyle. Not a generic template. Not a one size fits all approach. A plan that actually works for you.

REAL EDINBURGH PEOPLE. REAL RESULTS.

Sandy provided a highly professional and scientific training programme with all steps explained in detail. He was also very supportive and encouraging throughout the training. I am pleased that I selected Sandy as my personal trainer.

Sandy listens, treats you as an individual, understands the pressures of real life, helps you set goals which are achievable, even if you doubt yourself. Sandy has fantastic knowledge of nutrition and fitness, the whole package. With Sandy as my PT I have changed my relationship with food, aswell as how to do quality workouts in gym; achieving not only weightloss but improved muscle strength. Getting me over my 'fear' of free weights. I have osteoarthritis in both knees; with Sandy's guidance i have developed stronger hamstrings and glutes which in turn has meant improved movement and reduced pain. If you want a fully supportive PT, who gives 100% to you as a client and who you WILL get success with, then I fully recommend Sandy.

I can’t recommend Sandy highly enough as a personal trainer in Edinburgh. He explains every exercise and workout clearly, so you always know what you’re working towards and why. Sandy pushes you to achieve your full potential while making sure you feel supported throughout the process. He really takes the time to listen, understand your goals, and help you get the results you’re looking for.

I’ve been doing personal training at Meadowbank with Sandy and it’s been a really positive experience from the start. He took the time to understand my goals and put together a plan that actually fits around my lifestyle, which has made it much easier to stay consistent. The sessions are always well structured and I’ve already noticed improvements in my strength and confidence in the gym. If you’re looking for personal training in Meadowbank and want a clear, supportive approach, I’d highly recommend Forsyth Fitness.

I have started with Forsyth Fitness personal training at Meadowbank after trying hard to conquer the gym myself, Sandy has been absolutely amazing , his knowledge of his trade is second to none, he gives me confidence that I didn’t know I had, he is so enthusiastic and encouraging when I think ‘ I can’t do this’, I would recommend Sandy to anyone who is thinking of getting a PT.
