Massively upgraded my workouts

I’ve been training with Tom for the best part of six months now and can only give him the highest of praise. I was already a keen gym-goer before starting with Tom and already had my diet mostly under control, but he’s really helped to push me to new heights and get me closer to my goals. Everything throughout this experience has been personally tailored to me, he’s been kind and understanding with worries about my previous disordered eating habits, and has really coached me into a much healthier mindset around both food and exercise. Before training with Tom, I felt I’d hit a bit of a plateaux and wasn’t improving in the gym, but in the short space of time we’ve been working together I’ve seen significant results and am now hitting new personal bests across the board. In addition to this, he’s also coached me through illness (food poisoning which threw me off my game) and injury (a forearm injury that has now completely recovered.) I’m also a keen traveller and he’s specifically tailored workouts for while I’ve been overseas without access to a gym. I can’t recommend working with him enough, even if I stopped working with him tomorrow I think my workouts will have been improved for life based on everything he’s taught me. Also, his little challenges are my favourite thing ever and constantly keep me motivated. 10/10

Thank you Tom Trotter

I have been training with Tom for around 6 months now. A lot of the time on social media you see 8 week transformations and this sometimes skews what is considered realistic in that amount of time as not everyone is the same. For me I have definitely had to wait longer to see more noticeable results. With Tom’s help I have managed to gain 7.5kg, most of which is muscle mass and I am happy with my body for the first time. Tom is mega motivational with his personal messages via his app or on his own social media. Consistency has been the main ingredient I was missing and before Tom I found it hard to go to the gym because it was not a priority. The gym is now part of my weekly routine and helps with my mental and physical health. I would encourage anyone to use Tom as he changes your life by tweaking your lifestyle. A few small changes and consistency is all it takes and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without him.
Cannot wait to see where I am in another 6 months time.

First online coaching experience

Having struggled with my fitness over the lockdowns in 2020, I finally decided to take the plunge and join Tom’s team in August 2021. I have often felt in the past that it was easy to find excuses to avoid the gym and training, however weekly check ins held me accountable and I now look forward to my sessions as I’ve noticed such a change in both my fitness and my mindset. Tom is so motivational and understanding, he really wants to know how you’re getting on. The meal plan is one of the tastiest I’ve ever tried, whilst also being super simple to follow. Great experience so far, and I’m looking forward to continuing to smash my goals this year!

Fantastic coach and great guy

Tom is a great coach and more than just a fitness coach. It is all about the lifestyle and helping you achieve what you are trying to.

The initial call is about getting to know each other following the completion of the online form about what your goals are. Following this, a training program and meal plan are shared which is just a starter for 10. It is all about communication with the things that you like and don't, how your body responds, and that is a learning process.

The training program is challenging and includes exercises that I dont like (pull ups) which I need to get better at so I force myself to do them.

I mostly use Gousto for my food but it is good to check the amount of macros you are eating against the calculations that Tom provides.

Can't fault Tom at all, here is there to help and make the process as enjoyable as possible!

Bloody brilliant

Tom has opened my eyes to a new way of training abs dieting. He’s provided me with a solid and consistent routine that has ultimately left me with visible results.

Tom is a pleasure to work with, super responsive and is open to cater for anyone based on their individual needs. Couldn’t thank him more enough, top guy to work with!

There's no rush on the journey you are on but being part of his team has really made me lookign at myself happier and healthier. 100% recomed

Top Tom

Have to say, Tom's energy is infectious. When I signed up for his programme, I was a little nervous as I didn't know him but just felt he would be good.
He has been far from good. He has been excellent. With regular check ins and updates of programming and food, I feel I have a personal trainer living with me. Even when I travel for work. No excuse. Sends me programmes for that too.
He doesnt expect unrealistic lifestyles and in fact applauds you having a social life. Constantly asking if I need anything and constantly encouraging. For an online programmer, I wasn't expecting this level of commitment to me.
I signed up to him, and he signed up to me. I consider him a pal now and look forward to strutting with him in Dublin someday soon! Couldn't recommend him enough. We all need positivity and guidance in our lives. We all need a Tom.

Best trainer I’ve had

Worked with Tom for around 6months. Had really hit a slump in my training through covid and needed some help getting back on the wagon. Tom helped me massively finding my passion for fitness again his workouts are really enjoyable but challenging at the same time and the meal plans are super yum!!

Short Journey, Nice Results

I worked with Tom for four months. Overall, I am really excited about the progress I made in a short amount of time. With Tom’s support and guidance, I managed to add several pounds of muscle to my body. Prior to working with Tom, I was going to the gym every so often and doing nothing more than hitting the treadmill. My routine is greatly expanded now thanks to Tom’s help. The sessions are fun and easy, and you have Tom checking in a couple times a week to answer any questions and provide guidance. Although I only worked with Tom for a short period, it’s exactly what I needed in my life. Thanks Tom!

Inspiring and supportive

Tom is an amazing coach - he holds you accountable, he inspires you and he cares about your progress. He’s always a message away and sends me hilarious voice notes which make me smile and give me the push I need when I’m finding things a little challenging. The workouts are testing and thoroughly enjoyable - he’s changed the way I see food and exercise which is a huge thing for me. In 3 months I’ve lost 7 pounds and I’m a few steps closer towards reaching my goals. I’ve struggled to lose weight for years since running marathons and stopping because of injury. Tommy was so flexible too when my gym closed for a month - he adapted my plan in the space of a day! I’d like to see more variety and choice on the meals, but Tom is always on hand when I ask him for new meal plans. I hugely recommend him, his coaching and his plan!

Tom is a nice guy but his coaching isn’t worth £150 per month

Tom is a nice guy and clearly loves what he does. He clearly takes an interest in his clients and, how they’re progressing within their journey. I contacted Tom because of the personal aspect of his training, the promise of a tailored fitness and meal plan and, his personality. I don’t understand how his plans are tailored because he does not ask any life style questions nor any questions on dislikes and likes. He likes to communicate through the Lenus app but it takes days to get a reply from him. Also, to set exceptions - the first call you receive from him lasts about 3 minutes. All I can say is this process is not for me, Tom clearly has too many clients to manage at any one time which restricts his ability to help people. The reviews I see on this page are not my experience and, I suspect any negative reviews are taken down (Tom phoned me to ask me to take down my previous negative review). I have decided not to continue with the process and, will search for something different. £150 per month for online coaching? It just isn’t worth it.

Reply from Tom Trotter Online Coaching

Hey Daniel my guy, thank you so much for leaving this review. As we discussed over WhatsApp, I take huge pride in my job as a coach and welcome all feedback on how I could be making my client’s experience even better as I’m only ever striving to help people feel incredible in this fun and healthy lifestyle.
I’m truly gutted you wouldn’t take a phone call to discuss what I could do from my side to meet expectations. I’m also gutted you never communicated any dissatisfaction over writing a 3 star review, to then edit that review to 1 star.

As you’ll know from having filled out a detailed document regarding you and your lifestyle, all of my plans are carefully tailored to each and every client - and they continue to be tweaked, amended, refreshed, whatever’s needed throughout the duration of our incredible journey together. I’d love to have learned more on what you feel would have been even more tailored? Help me to help you as such.
With regards to communication; messages were answered within 24hrs my guy, at most 48. I’m reachable on the phone, WhatsApp, Instagram, my app messenger - again, I don’t know what I don’t know, so would have loved for you to communicate your need for faster replies. I can only assume my clients are happy and loving the process when their comms suggest exactly that, much like yours have.

You left you first review within days of starting and while still in a deload phase, which you agreed was unfair based on not experiencing the process. My clients are my number one priority, I live and breathe coaching and the fun healthy lifestyle. I’m personally invested and have rarely received negative feedback, but when I have, I’ve worked with that client to reach a resolution.

Like I say, gutted you’ve given this only 4 weeks and taken to a public forum to display your evident unhappiness rather than communicate with me as your coach. Hoping you find another process that works for you - always here if you need any advice.

No one compares to Tom!

I’ve had personal trainers before but no one, I repeat, NO ONE, compares to Tom! I have never looked better.

I’d been aware of Tom’s coaching for a while on Instagram before I approached him and made possibly one of the best decisions of my life. What appealed to me about his training is that a) he seemed like a really lovely, fun guy. And someone I would enjoy being trained by. And b) he’s all about LEAN BULKING - which is something I’ve been trying to achieve my entire life, but with no luck due to my naturally skinny build and constantly taking stabs in the dark nutrition-wise.

My previous PTs always just told me that I needed to eat as much as possible, with no regard as to macros and/ or a proper meal plan - just a calorie limit. It makes me shudder to think back to that compared to what I know now thanks to Tom.

The workout plan he offers, combined with tailored meal plans are just incredible. Yes, hard. Yes, challenging. But with results I would never have dreamed of only 8 months later. And it’s not just the plans themselves, and how at the drop of a hat he can tweak whatever you like, whenever you like, it’s the way in which he JUST IS. And by that I mean, he is incredibly supportive, he holds you accountable in the kindest (and funniest) ways possible, and he really gets you to gradually take on a change of lifestyle for the better that doesn’t feel like a chore. I feel educated. I feel strong. I feel healthy and I look so damn good, if I don’t say so myself! And it’s all down to his enthusiasm, really. There’s a lot of PTs out there that know how to lift weights and look good themselves. But translating that to others and really teaching somebody to feel good about themselves and guiding them gently to make better choices is a whole other kettle of fish. And Tom has the ability to do this like no other PT I’ve ever had. He genuinely cares and is passionate about what he does, which is incredibly encouraging and infectious. I didn’t think I’d continue with a PT for this amount of time, I thought it was would be a phase. But he really is guiding me through such a huge transformation, and constantly helping and tweaking what I need in order to keep making progress, that I can’t see this process ending any time soon.

So if you have any doubts about making the best decision of your life, please just throw caution to the wind and let this guy work his magic on you. He’s B L O O D Y brilliant.

What a man!!

I’ve been with Tom for about 6 months now and I can honestly say joining his team is the best decision I’ve made in my fitness journey. I got in contact with Tom after being fed up with the same boring routines and never seeing any results. The way he coaches & his plans are something I’ve never done or seen before. He has pushed me to levels I’ve never been too before & been there to support me the whole way. His personality, passion & knowledge is extraordinay. Everything I’ve asked for he has catered for and I’m continuing to see results daily. He’s not just a coach, he’s become a friend too. I can’t recommend this man enough!!

Wish I had signed up sooner!

Coach Tommy is a beast!! Love this guy!!! He practices what he preaches and knows what he’s talking about. My meals and workouts are tailored to my needs and he even gives me some quick and easy meals (because I can be lazy and need minimal food prep time). I’ve learned so much so far and I know I’m not perfect, but I’m better than I was. Tom is encouraging and inspiring and his training is worth every penny. I’m on my path to become JACKEDson as we like to say and am ready to rock that speedo strut with him when I do!! Highly, highly recommend signing up!

Contacted Tom regards to wanting to physically change they way I looked and he replied straight away and got in touch to discuss my plans and ideas, no fuss, no nonsense, straight to the point.

Always contactable and always gives his best. The changes I have made are all because of his help and time given to me.

Happy to continue this journey with him until I am happy with how I look, lastly this journey has helped me out not only physically but mentally.

incredible coach

I followed Tom on instagram for a while listening to his positive stories that led to me getting in touch. I’ve never really known what to do in the gym to help get that body I’ve always dreamed of or even know what the right nutrition was. That’s where Tom has come in and coached me in the right direction. I’ve never felt so confident in myself that I have in that last few months to the point I’m confident enough to share photos of myself on instagram. It really has become a lifestyle and not just a fad diet and the odd workout. I have had so many people comment on how much I’ve changed I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tom.

10/10 would recommend

I’ve tried a few different coaches over the last couple years but found Tom is by far the most engaged, motivational and fun. He’s a joy to communicate with and clearly listens and strives to help you achieve your goals. Furthermore, he will tailor a workout/diet plan specifically for you, none of these general workout plan nonsense. 10/10 would AND have recommended. Props to tom.
