Shapewell Fitness & Rehab

Fantastic experience: I got in touch with Cath because I wanted to build up my strength and fitness but having never set foot in a gym I had no idea where to start. Cath has been fab, I've learned so much and can really see improvements... but I've also loved it! We've always had a laugh and it has been enjoyable not something to get through. Feeling confident to go it alone now but I will miss Cath and I'm sure I'll be back when I'm ready for some help pushing to the next level.

Fantastic experience: Recently retired I knew I had to get fit after years sitting at a computer. I hated gyms and wanted a personal trainer who would work with me. I went to Cath with fairly low expectations of what she would achieve but after a year she has managed to get me: fit for a full-on family ski holiday sort out neck and shoulder pain that was keeping me awake at night through a very gentle rehabilitation approach enjoy going to my sessions such that I look forward to them. All of this is supported by a home programme that is achievable. Cath listens carefully to what you want and need and then works with you in a very supportive way. Thank you Cath for working with me - we are both pleased with the results and, I think, enjoy working together.

Fantastic experience: Cath has been training me for 3 months now and I am really feeling the benefits. I had an injury when I joined her and she was worked with me to greatly improve it. I find Cath warm and funny and the sessions are enjoyable. She challenges me but in a sensible way that keeps me improving (and moving!!).

Fantastic experience: Cath is a great trainer who’s helped me get confident and know where to start in the gym. I had a shoulder injury - so combined with my own physio and Cath’s help and advice of what exercises to implement - has healed quickly and has made me feel so much stronger. Would definitely recommend Cath for anyone who feels intimidated by the gym and wants to get started and motivated

Fantastic experience: Cath has helped me to become reacquainted with exercise again after years of doing nothing. It’s been the perfect reintroduction; paced well but helped me to make some good progress. I have learned such a lot on how to start doing strength training, which I was completely new to. I’d highly recommend Cath to anyone looking for some advice or motivation at any level of fitness, as she’s so friendly and supportive.

Fantastic experience: I came to Cath after I wanted to build strength and general fitness but was finding it difficult to train due to an old injury that kept flaring up. Cath really knows her stuff, and this is clearly demonstrated in every session. We’ve been able to work together in a way that has me making the kind of consistent progress I haven’t been able to manage before. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Cath has helped no end with my strength and fitness goals. Depending on my needs at that time (which vary due to my kickboxing training) Cath tailors our sessions to focus on what I need from her. It’s easy to stick to sessions when you genuinely enjoy them!

Fantastic experience: Looking forward to seeing the development of the new Penarth gym, since I had a shoulder injury shapewell fitness has really helped me back to health and the professional attitude to rehabilitation from Cath is testimony to her knowledge and experience. Definitely give this a go!
