Fantastic experience: I wanted to learn some new skills in the gym and tough cookie has given me the opportunity to do this. Lifting weights and moving my body in ways that I have not done before. Its been a great experience for me

Mariah Aziz 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Seb for just over 2 years now & I've had an amazing experience. I have gained a lot confidence & knowledge around training, nutrition & how to tailor those for myself thanks to Seb. His genuine care & encouragement are the reasons I've been able to stay consistent & finally see progress (after struggling for many years!). Tough Cookie Gym is an inclusive & motivating space regardless of your fitness level. If you’re looking for someone who truly wants the best for you, highly recommend Seb & TCG!

Fantastic experience: Seb is brilliant and makes you feel at ease. I felt so comfortable, not like at normal gyms. Im now into my 5th week and am absolutely loving it and the support from not only Seb and Jen but everyone in the gym is amazing.

Leah Richardson 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have been with tough cookie for over a year now. After years of struggling with being inconsistent with training and nutrition, (even though I enjoyed exercise and eating well) it feels like the penny has finally dropped. I am more consistent now than I have ever been. The progression felt slow at first but following the programme and being coached by Seb encouraged me to stick with it and now I have achieved things that I didn’t think I would. Training and nutrition just fits in with my life now and finding the balance doesn’t feel like I am juggling plates. Seb has also coached me through my first 6 months of pregnancy and I can honestly say it has had a huge impact on my physical and mental health for the better. I have stayed fit and healthy which can be difficult to do when so much changes. I was worried about training safely through my pregnancy and there was so much conflicting information on the internet. The best thing I did was trust in Seb. It’s made my pregnancy a breeze. Still training at 6 months pregnant and never felt better

Fantastic experience: I joined Tough Cookie Gym a few months ago and I am really enjoying it. Seb is really knowledgeable and encouraging and the programming always pushes me beyond what I think I am capable of. I would really encourage anyone who is thinking of joining a gym to give Tough Cookie a go!

Ciaran Houton 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym and community to be a part of and somewhere I would recommend to anyone who wants a safe space to work out, with top quality coaching and programming from Seb, and a lot of support and encouragement from the rest of the Tough Cookie team. You won’t regret it!!

Jenny Heinz 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! Great coaching which keeps me motivated and wanting to keep going back. Highly recommended giving it a go.

Julie Thompson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I fully recommend this gym! As someone who has always been more into cardio, I was never really into weight training. However, with Seb's excellent, supportive, and knowledgeable coaching, I now notice the huge benefits his functional training approach has had on my overall fitness and well-being. I feel more resilient, confident, and energised. Both he and Jen, with their warm nature and passion for health and fitness have built a lovely, friendly, welcoming, and inclusive community for people of all fitness levels, which makes me look forward to going to the gym! I always feel like a better person after I've been there. They really do offer a lot to the community. I would also recommend their Saturday sweat classes, followed by a tasty coffee and chat with everyone to soothe your soul and ease yourself into the weekend!

Sam Jackson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve recently joined this gym on a trial. I’ve wanted to join for a little while but I was a bit anxious as I’ve not done anything similar. On my first session the owners Seb and Jen showed me round the gym, introduced me to the others doing a session and talked me through different skills/exercises at my pace. It was so rewarding, at first I couldn’t get my head round a specific movement, however, Seb took me through it step by step and by the end of the session I felt like I’d progressed significantly. I was absolutely buzzing. The others in the small group gave me encouragement too, it’s such a nice community. I then attended one of the weekend Sweat classes which is a larger class. Again everyone was so friendly, supportive and at no point did I feel overwhelmed. At the end some people stayed for a coffee/chat, unfortunately I had to leave as I had a family event, however, Seb messaged me that evening just to see how I found the class which I thought was a really nice touch. I’d recommend this gym to anybody. The support and guidance is brilliant, I wish I’d joined sooner.

Hannah Bues 1 year ago

Emma MacInnes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Can't rate this guy highly enough. Epic trainer, challenges me, encourages and supports and makes me up my game every day. Does way more than just telling me to do a few squats and lunges - puts together brilliant programmes and addresses all the other sides of getting better at living life at its best.

Jeana Cachero 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Going to the gym was a lot of effort especially when I didn’t know what to do, or how to train myself and I used to rely on classes or the elliptical and running machines. But then I started getting coached by Seb, who has taken me on a journey of seeing what I’m physically capable of and surprised myself! He has given me confidence to try new ways of training, be open minded to my approach in nutrition, learn grow and adapt in ways that I didn’t think was possible! I went from going to gym because it was a necessity to it being a lifestyle choice. I have gone from strength to strength seen my physically body change and all of this has massively impacted my life outside of it. I am confident, I am strong, I am active and most importantly I am fit and healthy and this has meant I have been able to live life to is absolute fullest! I owe that to seb, his coaching, his passion in sharing his knowledge his journey, and his expertise. You won’t find any coach like him!! And to top all this off, I am surround by an incredible bunch of people, from all different walks of life but who help, support, motivate, have a laugh and genuinely care for each other. The community is like no other! What seb had built and joining is by far one of the best choices I have made in my life!

JOANNA Metcalf 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: There is nothing that compares to the Tough Cookie Gym community. Coach Seb is 5* , the knowledge this guy has is second to none, he is the type of person that makes you believe in yourself and your capabilities, when you don't believe them yourself.. The community is filled with like-minded people who are all in your corner. Which makes you feel at complete ease. It really is an incredible place. I am so greatful to be a part of it. If you want to better yourself, mind and body and make great friends along the way. This place is for you.

Laura Walker 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Seb (Tough Cookie Training) for almost a year, before joining I was a bit apprehensive about lifting anything heavy or doing certain exercises due to having scoliosis surgery as a teenager, but Seb always walks through everything explaining where and what you should feel and what the purpose of the exercise is. And if necessary he will always find a way to adapt the exercise so I can get the most out of it. I’m now seeing results and feeling fitter than I ever have! I really enjoy the small group PT and community Seb has built, everyone is really encouraging and it gives you the motivation to keep going.

Laura Cheetham 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Sebs an amazing PT with unbelievable knowledge, his classes and excessive programs are brilliant. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Daniel Brown 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Seb (Tough Cookie owner) is a fantastic coach, and without him I wouldn't be able to be as consistent as I am and see the progress that I have seen so far. Seb is much more than a fantastic coach though, he has all the time in the world to speak to me (and you) about everything and anything, be that nutrition, things that you have going on in life that you just want to chat to someone about, or more in depth conversations about anything ranging from things to expect with weight loss, your mindset, how each exercise actually helps you and the science behind it, hell; he'll even throw in a terrible joke every now and then. For these reasons and many more, I have all the time and respect in the world for Seb and I couldn't recommend Tough Cookie training more, for anyone that is thinking about getting into fitness, at any level. The family we have at Tough Cookie is amazing and only adds to the overall, 10/10 experience. See you at the gym.

Rachel Coleman 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoying my PT sessions with Seb. The small group sessions allow for focused PT work while also enjoying the company of fellow tough cookies and training together. Making good progress and new friendships. ☺️☺️

Nathan Devlin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Tough Cookie Training is next level in all aspects. Seb really goes the extra mile with all of his clients, including myself. He has created not just well developed gym programming but a community that caters to all, from beginners to the more experienced gym goers, there is something for everyone here. 5 stars.

Helen Ogg 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Been doing tough cookie training for almost a year and the changes in my health (both physical and mental) and strength have improved significantly! Seb is an amazing coach who genuinely cares about his clients well-being! Tough cookie training is more than just training, it’s a community and support network. Would 100% recommend

natalie hopkins 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Tough Cookie enough! I have improved my fitness, performance, skill level, knowledge, passion, confidence, perceived competence (the list could go on!). Seb is the most knowledgeable coach I have ever come across but more than that, he understands people and is fantastic at working through any problem you may have - he is genuinely invested in every one of his clients. The community that Tough Cookie have built is truly special and its a privilege to be a part of it.

aneka razaq 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Seb and the Tough Cookie team for nearly a year. I can see the physical and mental improvements this training has helped me gain. I have joined a very supportive team who encourage each other to be their best selves. I have learnt so much around fitness, nutrition and general wellbeing. Seb is a motivational and calm coach, he is very supportive and adapts the training to your needs . I would highly recommend joining the team as I have not found any other like this.

Rebecca Moss 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been training with Seb now for the past 7 months and am achieving things I didn’t think were possible! I’m increasing in strength, endurance and confidence week by week and the tough cookie tribe community is like no other. We’re not just tribe members, we’re a fitness family. Would highly recommend to anyone of all ages and abilities, Sebs got you covered

Charlotte Burr 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb has such great care for all of his clients. He works hard with you to understand your goals and tailors your training to ensure these are met. If you are looking for a PT who actually cares about your goals then seb is the guy for you

Leanne Ball 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb is highly knowledgable and motivating. He goes above and beyond to help you get to where you want to be. Getting the love back for the gym more week by week since joining tough cookie. The tribe members are like no other and also very encouraging even on general dag to day things. I would highly recommend touch cookie to anyone

Chadi Sebastiao 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love Tough cookie training and Seb is a fantastic PT , he is always motivates and push you to be the best version off yourself, he is alwayd there to advise you about nutrition or training. I am glad to be part of this amazing team and to have the best Pt out there . Seb thanks for everything

Jenna Attew 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb is a fantastic PT who goes above and beyond for his clients, and his passion for what he does shines through. His programming is the best I have experienced and I love the small group PT training. I notice progress in my fitness every week and Seb has pushed me to do things I did not know I was capable of. I would recommend Seb's PT to anyone of any capabilities, to achieve your fitness goals.

Lukasz Krol 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb is a great PT and coach. I have been training with him for over three years and cannot recommend him enough. Tough Cookie Training is not only his business but also his passion. Seb invests time in his own development and it shows in the way he manages his business and training programmes. I would recommend Seb to anyone who looks to improve not only their physical ability but also mindset and focus on setting and achieving goals. Seb created a great training community so no one is a stranger to other people training with Seb. Seb's decision to start small group PT was a game changer for all of us who train with him - it is great to do PT training alongside other people -and learn from them as well as from Seb.

Lois Dean 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb is a great coach, he spends time working on way to make your achieve what you want both in and out of the gym, he goes above and beyond any other pt i have had. The tough cookie team are inviting and always welcoming. Always a friendly face when you go into the gym! Would highly recommend.

Keeley Chimonidis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb has created a community like no other! His thorough consultation process means he really gets to know his clients and figure out the best way for them to get what they desire out of training! But also he completely changes their outlook on training and helps them see being strong AF is way better than just weightloss alone! If you are considering a PT he is definitely the one for you!

Paul Walker 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I'd previously only had experience of 1-2-1 PT before and was nervous of Small Group PT, but within the first session I was made to feel welcome by those in the group. The training is challenging but varied and the support of Seb and the others taking part really helps motivate. Seb isn't just about the physical improvements, but the psychological, the well being and is keen to assist with other facets of day to day life which may be affecting what we do, what we eat, how we train , how we sleep etc. A great coach but an even better bloke!

Agnieszka Kostro 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was apprehensive about going to the gym after a long break from it. After first PT session with Seb I straightaway began to look forward to it now it is an enjoyable part of my weekly routine. Seb is supportive and really helped me push myself to work harder and improve myself. Very professional coach who definitely helps to achieve a fitness goals. Would recommend Seb to anyone!!

Catherine Todd 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I did online PT with Seb for around 11 months, and the support I have been give has been fantastic. Not only have I learnt new exercises and movements in the gym, but the training was so fun! Seb also supported me with nutrition and working out what methods work best for me, and also working out potential barriers to success and how I can overcome them. Seb is patient, understanding and encouraging in his approach, I can’t recommend doing PT with him enough!

Agnese Jurisone 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb isn’t just a PT, he really is one of a kind! He cares about his customers/clients, not only on gym floor, there are mental education with different topics, team day entertainments outside the gym and so much more. This is not a regular PT 1 hour slot and you are done, it’s a tribe you will enjoy being part of! The way he plans workouts, short term, but always keeping in mind long term results, there is no doubt that no matter at what fitness level you are at, you will get better by training with Seb. I really do not have anything bad to say, he cares about what he does and you can feel that at every single session. No matter what your goal is, if it’s aesthetics, strength, capacity, mobility, weight loss or you simply looking for some inspiration/motivation, small PT group training will help you with that when training with Seb due to the way the workouts are planned. Highly recommend, if you are not part of Tough Cookie Training, you really are missing out.

James McManus 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of a kind training. Seb has created a family of like minded people who share the same ambition of getting fitter and stronger. He cares for everyone he trains and puts his heart and soul into what he does. From someone who wouldn’t dare step into the gym, I now can’t get enough. I owe all that to Seb.

Jean Hopman 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Recently had a lengthy session on nutrition with Seb from Tough Cookie Training and this guy certainly knows his stuff! Far better than the NHS guy I had sessions with. I have a number of medical conditions which makes mine a complicated case, but Seb worked with me to give me a very personalised nutrition and exercise programme which is invaluable. Far exceeded expectation. Would highly reccommend

jack waddington 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brilliant PT. Extremely knowledgably, friendly and supportive. I would recommend Seb to anyone wishing to lose weight, get fitter or improve their life!

Charlotte Ingram 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve found myself doing things I never thought I’d be capable of thanks to Seb’s patience, training and encouragement. A fantastic community to be a part of with a brilliant coach to lead us all. Would highly recommend to anyone at any level, one of the best things I’ve ever done.

Erika Mc 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb is a life changer. It's been around 4 years since I started my own true path of placing fitness & nutrition into my lifestyle & he's been there to educate, support & push me on where needed for all of it. He's patient, friendly & always there to give you the high five when you've nailed a personal goal for the first time. If you're looking for someone who can help with all aspects of fitness/lifestyle goals, he's absolutely your guy.

Faye Vollans 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: 5 stars isnt quite enough to rate my experience if im honest I've been a client of Sebs for about 2 years now starting off focusing on weightloss and becoming physically and mentally stronger and now supporting me on my fitness journey whilst pregnant. Seb goes above and beyond for all his clients providing support, knowledge and accountability for each one of us ensuring all goals either big or small are met be that lifestyle, mindset, diet or fitness related. Highly recommended tough cookie training

radziorq 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've trained with Seb for a last year, and I can with 100% confidence recommend his service. Knowledge, skills and most off all his passion and devotion to make his clients happy, are the only few reasons to make your decision to start changing something in your life for good! totally recommended!

Sarah Tucker 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Seb really cares about his clients and works very hard to support them to reach their fitness goals but also to improve their nutrition, mental health and overall lifestyle. He leads by example and has built up the Tough Cookie Tribe which is unique as its members also get support, motivation and friendship from each other. I started PT to help me rehab my knee after a running injury and to get fit. Seb made me a personalised plan and after a few months I was pain free and in the best shape I have ever been in. I really enjoyed the group PT as they motivated me more to push myself. I recently moved cites and now have an online training plan from Seb, he regularly checks in with me and is available if I have any questions about my workout, I am really enjoy them. Seb is an absolute legend - thank you!!

Hannah Stafford 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been having PT with Seb for about 8/9 months now and it's been one of the best decisions I've made. Seb is so knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and supportive. He goes out of his way to provide the best support for his clients and is always finding ways to improve his skills and share this with us. My training is completely personalised taking into account my goals and ability but is always focused around helping me get stronger and develop further. I'd highly recommend Seb to anyone looking to improve their fitness, diet, mindset and lifestyle.
