Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Hi everyone

Hi everyone! I joined the gym Group not even three months ago. I was looking for a personal trainer, and after reading about Hristo and how he helps people transform their bodies, I decided to contact him. Honestly, Hristo is amazing. We do one-on-one sessions, and I'm already starting to see changes. He's super attentive during workouts and always makes sure I'm doing the exercises correctly. If something's off, he fixes it right away, which I really appreciate.
He keeps track of my progress and always motivates me to push myself. I've achieved things I never would've done on my own - I really needed a trainer like him.
Plus, he's friendly and just has a great vibe overall. I recommend hin to anyone who wants to make a change in their lufe. I truly couldn't recommend him enough!

Hristo is a phenomenal personal…

Hristo is a phenomenal personal trainer, his knowledge comes from a place of personal experience alongside the qualifications - which provides a unique blend of expertise and really makes the difference when it comes to transforming physiques. He always has a workaround for every exercise you may not be able to complete due to any reasons including injuries. He always has a clear vision and roadmap for his clients and his experience means he really knows how to craft a unique plan, which is truly tailored to your individual physique. His passion for the sport comes strongly and he has personally made me really enjoy weight lifting and improved my performance significantly. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

Hristo is a great PT

Hristo is a great PT!

He is incredibly knowledgable on everything fitness- including workouts, diet, rest and recovery and injuries. His knowledge shines through in face to face sessions where he demonstrated perfect form and is very helpful in making sure you replicate it. Whilst he pushes you hard, he is a chill guy to be around.

His online platform is really good and helps you stay on track without a fuss. His weekly feedback sessions are informative, useful and personable and he is always available to ad hoc chats and advice.

During my time with hristo, I have massively increased my strength and improved my physique. This initially started by putting on a lot of weight through a big diet plan and then cutting down again. My body weight at the start and end was the same, but my size was much bigger muscle wise.

I was also training for a marathon whilst working with hristo and he gave me tips on how to balance running and lifting training and how to manage injuries that popped up.

Maybe the best thing about hristo is that he is able to push you hard, but he recognises when you need a rest. I had injuries and was quite ill for a while and he made sure I was prioritising my recovery and overall health, rather than getting me to work through the pain. He is empathetic and understanding.

Overall, he’s a great PT that I would highly recommend.

It was the best investment of my life

It was the best investment of my life. For several years, I tried to lose weight on my own by going without food one day a week, cleansing my colon with castor oil 36 weeks a year, and doing regular Ekadashi. But my weight remained at 80kg, and there was nothing I could do about it.
Thanks to Hristo Dobrev's weight loss program, I lost 17kg in 3 months. And thanks to his muscle-building program, I increased my muscle mass, also in 3 months. As a bonus, I got a slim waistline, although this was not planned at the beginning of our contract.
I recommend Hristo Dobrev as a highly professional trainer and nutritionist who went the extra mile to count my calories, design menus, and teach me how to use the exercise app. All support was online, and there were no long journeys across London; I used a gym close to home where I live.
Thank you, Hristo Dobrev, for changing my life in such a positive way. I now have a great figure and a experience that has developed over six months. I will continue to follow the program developed by Hristo Dobrev because habit has become a way of life.

Legit the best PT

Training with Hristo has been nothing short of transformative. Over the past few months, he has helped me improve my overall mental/ physical health and fitness journey more than I imagined was possible. His knowledge is truly unmatched – every session is tailored to my goals, pushing me to reach new heights safely and effectively. Hristo also brings a level of expertise and encouragement that keeps me motivated even on the toughest days. He genuinely cares and without his guidance I wouldn't be anywhere close to where I am today. A true professional, a great mentor, and a massive source of inspiration. 10/10, highly recommend for anyone serious about reaching their potential.

First Class PT!

Hristo is a brilliant PT.

I came to Hristo with several long standing injuries which restricted what I was able to do fitness wise. I’ve been training with him for 4 months now. In that time I have doubled and in some cases tripled my PB’s.

Had someone told me 4 months ago I would be lifting this heavy I would not have believed them. Hristo knows exactly how to tailor a routine specifically for your needs. He supports and pushes me to steadily and consistently lift far beyond what I ever thought I was capable of. That is so empowering.

Hristo is highly professional, focused, enthusiastic, good humoured and really easy to get along with. Exactly who you want to support you on your fitness journey.

Hristo without a doubt is the best…

Hristo without a doubt is the best Personal trainer I have had and I have had many. I’m saying this after just one session with him so far. He pays specialist attention to detail on form of every exercise so that you get the best out of the muscle you are working whilst making sure you train at high intensity. This makes him provide a truly transformative experience. I have noticed that my training has been operating from a change in mind set after just one session with him thanks to his coaching

Great coach

I've been training with Hristo for a few months now and I have to say that my experience has been better than expected. Hristo makes sure to design a workout plan that is both aligned to my goals and that includes exercise that I enjoy doing. He also makes sure that the nutrition is on point. Moreover, training with him is always a pleasure, he has a very friendly personality and always makes sure that I'm doing the right technique for the given exercise. He makes sure that I give everything I have on each workout, specially on leg day :)

Hristo is the best personal trainer

Hristo is the best personal trainer in this gym and possibly the whole world. He helped me massively work out my diet which was very important as a type 1 diabetic. I have gained 10 kg of pure muscle as a result, a whole lot of self confidence and my first Bulgarian friend!

Professional PT

Mr Dobrev is a professional PT who helped me make great progress on my goal of gaining muscles. He has completely transformed my fitness journey and, subsequently, my life.

From the moment we had our initial consultation, I knew I was in good hands. The personal trainer took the time to understand my fitness goals, medical history, and personal preferences. This personalized approach laid the foundation for a tailored training program that was both challenging and achievable.

The workouts were diverse, engaging, and never repetitive. Each session was meticulously planned, incorporating a mix of strength training, cardio, and flexibility exercises. I felt motivated and inspired throughout each workout, and the trainer's encouragement pushed me to break through mental barriers and achieve results I never thought possible.

One aspect that truly sets this personal trainer apart is their attentiveness to proper form and technique. They paid close attention to every movement I made, correcting and adjusting my posture as needed. This not only helped prevent injuries but also ensured I was getting the most out of each exercise.

Moreover, the personal trainer went beyond the gym to educate me about nutrition and lifestyle habits. They provided invaluable advice on meal planning, healthy eating, and even stress management. Their holistic approach to fitness truly empowered me to make positive changes in all aspects of my life.

If you are considering hiring a personal trainer, I highly recommend Mr Dobrev for a truly transformative fitness experience. Their expertise, personalized approach, and unwavering support will undoubtedly lead you towards achieving your fitness goals and exceeding your own expectations.

Great progress with a great coach

At the start of the year I wanted to invest a bit more time and money in my health. I reached out to Hristo and we’ve been training together twice a week for since January. Hristo has been great, he’s pushed me to work hard but he always knows where the limits are. With Hristos help I have progressed a lot in short space of time without having to completely change my lifestyle which we discussed openly from the start. I have a lot of respect for Hristo and his dedication to his work, he is a real professional and a great coach. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for motivation, guidance and progression

Best PT out there!

I started training with Hristo since last October and it's the best decision I've made! After hitting a brick wall with exercising, I went to him with the clear goal of getting stronger and I've hit personal bests I never thought I'd ever had!

He's super motivating during our PT sessions (sometimes annoyingly so) and pushes me to reach my full potential. He provides a workout plan that's easy to follow and each exercise comes with videos to check your form.

Also, my fitness goals slightly changed and I've had a shoulder nerve issue and Hristo had been super understanding and ammended my workouts to still keep me consistent but mindful of my injuries.

Best PT out there, I highly recommend him!
