Fantastic experience: Worked with Alex for 9 months now and the transformation in my body shape in that time has been great. He has also helped break habits which has held me back and made my mental health better. He makes very good workout programmes and also is very knowledgeable when it comes to managing macros and your food intake.

Fantastic experience: Love training with Alex! I've been training with him for over 6 months now and feel so much stronger and more motiviated. Alex will put together a plan tailored for your goals which will keep pushing you to progress, so all you have to do is turn up! He's great at giving advice on form for exercises and has lots of tips around food etc. which are really helpful. We also have a laugh and Gym on the Square is a great place to train. Would recommend him to everyone!

Fantastic experience: I started training with Alex while recovering from a hip injury. The programme helped me recover, allowing me to stop physiotherapy and since then I’ve seen huge gains in my overall strength and hip stability.

Fantastic experience: I hadn’t exercised for years, let alone been the the gym. Alex is very knowledgeable and friendly. He’s tailored the workouts to my goals and I’m already seeing the gains just a couple of months in. It is not an exaggeration to say it’s changing my life, cannot recommend enough.

John Connolly 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was in terrible shape when I started training with Alex 1.5 years ago, and now I'm healthier than I've been in my adult life. From day 1, he's taken the time to listen and understand my goals, and then he works with me to construct a plan to achieve them through a combination of structured workouts and nutrition. He's very knowledgable and able to adapt quickly if I want to focus on a different muscle group that day. He has a knack for knowing exactly when to push & motivate but understands my limits so I don't have to worry about getting injured. While I don't think I'll ever be the type of person who craves a gym session more than a trip to the pub, I really enjoy my workouts with Alex. It's a fun a time as you can have picking up and putting down heavy things. We always have a good laugh, and the rest of the crew at Gym on the Square are amazing, too. What a community and environment to be a part of. If you need personal training in Edinburgh, look no further. Alex and AS Personal Training is it.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant experience with Alex. Have done both 1 to 1 and online coaching and had excellent results with both. Friendly and approachable and made training and eating well enjoyable rather than a chore. Great food plans sent out for new ideas for meals as well. Great private gym where it feels comfortable having coaching and never too busy. Highly recommend!

G Maclean 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Alex was great. Been building up the courage to get into fitness regime for roughly a year. I finally made the jump at the beginning of the 2022 and looking back, I really wish I had done it sooner. He tailored a plan specifically for me, and though the programme was the right mix of encouraging yet not rigidly strict, which really helped me to be more displiplined with myself. Couldn't be happier with the results. The experience has really ignited my love for exsersise.

Jonathan Mowat 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I participated in online training through Alex’s PT hub that allowed me to track my meals and exercises throughout the duration of the program. He helped me increase my fitness and shed some body fat by ensuring I got in extra steps every day along with a fitness program he set up relevant to what I was looking for. Alex regularly checked in to see how I was getting on, also had to track my progress with a weigh in along with a photo once at the start of every week that kept me motivated, striving to improve myself as I grow during the program.

Gemma Parnell 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Alex is an all round great trainer. He keeps me motivated, accountable and his communication is great; he often checks in to see how the workouts and nutrition is going and is always quick to respond to any questions. I look forward to our sessions as he will always push me more than I push myself but always keeps them fun. The regularly updated workouts on the app keep things interesting so I don’t get bored with the exercises at all and they keep my workouts focussed.

Maria Pelosi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Having Alex as a PT had been brilliant! I was unmotivated and lacking enjoyment going to the gym and after some time training with Alex, I have completely transformed my views with the gym. I feel so much stronger, I’ve learnt how to properly lift weights and feel so confident doing any exercise. Its been amazing!!

Louise Sloan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Made the best choice to begin my journey with Alex, he is the best PT I ever had. Never set foot in the gym in my life, I needed guidance how to use the gym while looking after my body as I decided to make changes my lifestyle. He has a lot of knowledge, shares his nutrition plan, workouts programs and so on. Very encouraging, enjoyable sessions, always a laugh without being serious while keep the motivation going. He shows you how to do any workout before allowing to you to try, he give feedback and adjustment when needed. He is aware of me being deaf, communication is clear, makes sure I understood and easily adjust the music noise when needed, I even recommended my friend to join soon as I started and now we both love it.

Fantastic experience: I've been getting weekly PT with Alex for years now. I needed a structure and guidance of how to increase my strength. Alex has always tailored my workouts around my busy work life and focused on areas that help me in my sport: climbing. I would highly recommend getting in touch , it's been our PT sessions that have kept me moving forwards with my strength gain even through lockdown!

Charlotte Mackintosh 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m 59 and had no gym experience having been in a sedentary job for 18+ years. I also had knee joint pain. Alex has now been training me for 3+ months. My joint pain has reduced and mobility has increased, I’m the lightest I’ve been for many years. More importantly, I’m confident in using the gym by myself and actively crave the intensity and buzz of a workout. It’s become part of my routine and I feel very strong. I’m doing things in my daily life I’d not thought possible. I’d say I’ve turned back the clock! Alex is professional and encouraging at workouts. He is very knowledgeable and works safely. I can’t believe what he’s made possible.

Douglas McCallum 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Alex is extremely friendly and enthusiastic! I’ve worked with him for around 5 months for online home coaching, but he always responds promptly to any questions, gives feedback on videos I send him, and makes fantastic workouts adapted brilliantly to what I have at home. He has also been great at working around, and building on areas I have had injury issues with in the past and have seen great progression. I thoroughly recommend Alex as an online PT.
