Hayley Zikri Body Love PT

Fantastic experience: Hayley is such a lovely trainer and has already helped me so much with my fitness! I recommend her to anyone that is wanting to do pt sessions.

Fantastic experience: Hayley is the personal trainer you never knew you needed! Her extensive knowledge and experience are invaluable, allowing her to create bespoke workouts tailored to each individual. It's not a one-size-fits-all approach; Hayley truly listens to your needs, enabling her to design the perfect workout for you. Having trained for several years with various personal trainers, I can confidently say that my weekly sessions with Hayley over the past seven months have been incredibly beneficial. I reached out to her four months after giving birth, and she has been instrumental in helping me strengthen my core muscles. She has tailored my program to prevent injury while keeping it engaging and enjoyable. I have a painful knee from a previous injury, and Hayley quickly identified a significant imbalance stemming from a pelvic fracture I suffered over ten years ago. For the first time, I felt truly seen and supported in my journey to correct these issues. Additionally, I've been dealing with tennis elbow, and her advice on managing this condition has been incredibly reassuring and insightful. Overall, Hayley is a fantastic personal trainer who knows exactly what she’s doing. If you’re looking for a program tailored specifically to you, Hayley is the one to choose! You will certainly reap the benefits. Thank you so much, Hayley, for consistently being nothing short of amazing and for supporting me on my journey!

Fantastic experience: I went to Hayley at the start of the year having not exercised properly for a long time. I historically had a mindset of exercise being an all or nothing activity, which would lead me to injury or burnout. Hayley took the time to understand my history and who I was as a person. I had lots of niggles with my knee and my ankle and each time she would check in and adjust our activity to make sure I was getting the most out of it, but without furthering any injury and even helping to build core strength in different areas which would support injury resolution. Hayley is so calm and nurturing in her approach and in each session I progressed further. It really changed my mindset to realise I was on a journey and exercise shouldn’t be all or nothing. She knows just the right way to get the best out of you, but somehow without being pushy or barking orders like some PTs do! I literally cannot recommend Hayley enough. She is always on hand to message if you have questions. Is kind and nurturing in her approach and really helped change my mindset about exercise after a lifetime of negative thought. If you’re looking for a PT where you get support and results, Hayley is the one for you! Thank you Hayley for everything :)

Fantastic experience: Been training with Hayley for the past year and has been the best decision.. fantastic fun and have seen amazing results.. Hayley is a wonderful trainer - knows everything and great fun to train with. Would highly recommend joining.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been on this incredible journey with Hayley for over five amazing years! Despite some breaks along the way, I always find my way back to her because she truly is the best at what she does. Since I started training with her, I’ve felt happier and stronger than ever before. I’ve faced my challenges with weight loss, but with Hayley’s unwavering guidance and encouragement, I do start to see real results! I’m thrilled to be back in the swing of things with her and can’t wait to see the transformation ahead. Hayley is not just a fantastic trainer; she’s also incredibly kind and friendly. She knows exactly how to motivate me to reach my full potential. I’m so grateful to be back on this journey with Hayley—she is, without a doubt, the best personal trainer I’ve ever had!

Fantastic experience: Went to Hayley as I had a full tear of my ACL, consultant suggested physical rehab, with the help of Hayley I was playing sport again within 3 months. Would highly recommend Hayley for whatever sporting injury if you want to feel confident of playing again.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Hayley for just under two months, and I couldn’t recommend her more! She’s super super lovely, and makes you feel at ease, whatever your level. She ensures your training plan is customised to your abilities, your goals, and any injuries you may have. I always look forward to my sessions with Hayley!

Fantastic experience: I was rapidly approaching 50 and feeling out of shape and low so took the plunge and contacted Hayley. A year later i feel in control of my fitness and mood and am a lot more confident. Hayley is fun, attentive and passionate about what she does. Her home gym is inviting, clean and private where you can enjoy 1:1 help and support! I 100% recommend Hayley’s sessions!

Fantastic experience: Hayley is the best. Knows her stuff inside out, is super easy to get along with and fun. But most importantly she knows how to get the most out of you without barking orders or getting you injured. If you're serious about training I can't think of a better person to know.

Fantastic experience: Hayley is knowledgeable, professional and fun! She created a training programme to match my specific requirements in which I could see clear progress. I thoroughly enjoyed my sessions and would not hesitate in recommending her.

Fantastic experience: I began personal training with Hayley in February 2024 to help build my core strength to make me a stronger runner. Looking back, I wish I had signed up sooner. I started running in December 2022 and whilst I progressed quickly in terms of both speed and distance, I kept getting injured. I saw a physio who pointed out that my core was weak. This is when I contacted Hayley, I explained I was training for a marathon and that not getting injured was important to me. Hayley has taught me a range of exercises that focused on strengthening my core, in particular my glutes. Each week, she introduces new exercises and techniques, keeping the workouts varied and engaging. She also assigns homework and regularly checks in mid-week to monitor my progress. Additionally, Hayley has shown me how to stretch properly, something I never did previously. Every session has pushed my ability but never risked injury, gradually building my strength at a steady pace. In March 2024, after only two months with Hayley I managed to run three 20-mile races without injury which was incredibly rewarding considering a few months before, I’d be limping after a half marathon and needed recovery time. Then in April I ran my first marathon in under 4 hours, again without a single injury. My progress is ongoing, I feel stronger every week which is very gratifying. Thanks to Hayley’s guidance, I have become more conscious of which muscles are working and when. I’ve found Hayley to be highly knowledgeable in fitness training; rather than getting me just to lift the heaviest weight going, she has tested me and gradually increased weight when appropriate, I can tell she’s knows what to look for. Technique is important! She’s helped keep me motivated and is always at the end of the phone if I have a query or a new PB to share! I always look forward to our Monday session! My 3rd marathon is in October in Budapest and I’m really looking forward to seeing what time I can achieve this time. Thank you Hayley!

Fantastic experience: I started training with Hayley using her PT app and it is really working for me. Following an in person PT session with her so she could learn about all my aches and pains, and my fitness goals, Hayley created some excellent, bespoke workouts that I can do in my own home using the equipment I have available. The fact that Hayley can check the app to see how I’m doing and provides regular support along the way, means that I’m accountable for my training and this gives me the drive I need to get the workouts done. That, and the fact that the workouts are really fab, means that I am truly seeing a positive impact on my fitness. I am losing inches which is brilliant, but more importantly I am feeling stronger and more confident on a daily basis. I would absolutely recommend Hayley to anyone who wants to see results from challenging, but achievable and fun workouts. I also attend Hayley’s Zoom spin classes which are excellent. Even though it is online, it honestly feels like an in person class; Hayley is full of encouragement and her enthusiasm shines through. I look forward to this class every week; it is really fun and sets me up for the day!

Fantastic experience: I hate exercise. It doesn't come naturally and it's not something I enjoy. But somehow, I've been working with Hayley for two years. She is kind and supportive, fun and most of all, caring. I wish I loved sport as she does, but I'm thankful she can share with me how important movement is to my health and how I can add it to my life...and even enjoy it.

Fantastic experience: Hayley has been my Personal Trainer for over 6 and a half years now, which I think speaks volumes in and of itself. I had several specific requests (do's and don'ts) when looking for a PT, like most people I'm sure. Hayley took the time to listen to my needs and also what I wasn't looking for from a PT, she has structured my training sessions to deliver the best version of me. I am healthier, fitter and more flexible than I have been in years. Don't get me wrong, Hayley pushes me, but she doesn't break me (my first ask! ;) ) I cannot recommend Hayley highly enough If you want to be you, but better, give her a shout and let her help and guide you to where you want to be

Fantastic experience: I have trained with Hayley for about a year and have enjoyed my sessions with her so much. From the first time I met Hayley I felt at ease with her, she’s so approachable and explains everything really clearly. She has encouraged me in my goals and pushed me just enough, going at a pace I could cope with! She makes sessions fun, she’s responsive and really knows her stuff. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. Not only a really great PT but a lovely, lovely person too!

Fantastic experience: Lovely experience, tailor made accordingly to the requirements of my son. 11 years old he needed one to one training/ a personal trainer, Hayley gives the right attention to him and they have build up a very good bond. Definitely recommended. She know trains both my daughter of 13 and son of 11. Very pleased !

Fantastic experience: Hayley is a fantastic, knowledgeable & experienced personal trainer who will push you to do your best & achieve your goals in an encouraging & helpful manner. Hayley listened to what I wanted to get out of my sessions with her & has helped me achieve these targets. Her home gym is well equipped & not intimidating at all. I’m glad I found her!

Fantastic experience: For the last 4 months I have been utilising Hayley's PT services for online programming **. I have always been an avid gym goer, and into sport/fitness for many years but after having two children my body had become weakened which caused various pelvic and back issues. Since working with Hayley she has always listened to my needs, and created programmes to strengthen the weakened muscles, which has also highlighted areas I really need to work on/should work on but have NEVER worked on. She has given me focus, encouragement and help from the outset but most importantly the workouts for me have been challenging which is what I needed; and what I consider fun - plus Hayley's laugh is infectious which will have you smiling :). I am feeling (and looking) stronger and leaner, and more stable the latter being the most important. Thanks H!! I also do Hayley's online zoom spin class once a week which is amazing!! The buzz you get from it is great, all the participants are lovely and the music always has you dancing off your bike (even with jelly legs). Highly recommend Hayley; she's been a breathe of fresh air to my fitness life. ** The online programming through the app is simple to use and follow, and can be adapted to your needs e.g. short on time and need to rejig workouts for the week; or training from home and need substitute exercise.

Fantastic experience: Four months back I was ‘on the scrap heap’. Post menopausal, overweight, depressed with an all time low self esteem. I had gone from running London Marathon in October 2021 to struggling to run 5k. Then I found Hayley. She took the time to listen to me and gently eased me back to training. Week by week she has encouraged me, building not only my fitness but belief in my self again. Hayley is very knowledgeable, particularly with previous injuries and how to work on those problem areas. I am getting fitter, my running has improved but more important I am starting to love myself again. Thankyou Hayley, I couldn’t recommend you more highly.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had the most rewarding 4 months training with Hayley; the sessions themselves have been fun, challenging and totally bespoke to my personal goals but more than this Hayley takes the time even outside of sessions so consider what may help psychologically and provides the right balance of warm encouragement and motivation I’ve needed. I’ve been so pleased to feel stronger, improve my posture and overall feel healthier both physically and mentally having trained with Hayley.

Fantastic experience: I started my 6 week programme with Hayley feeling at my lowest ebb and heaviest weight ever. At 56, I have pretty much been a life long dieter and have always looked for the ‘quick fix’. I have found it a few times but it has always been short lived and impossible to sustain for any length of time. I had been training with Hayley weekly for quite a few weeks prior to this. She is an intuitive listener and heard me moan, put myself down and recognised how low I was. After confessing to eating 2 ice-buns as a snack, I turned up desperate and pretty distraught to my session and recognised I needed more help! Hayley offered me the opportunity to do a 6 week, fully supported nutrition and exercise plan. She explained that consistency was the key and that I would need to check in with her on a daily basis. She worked out my daily calorie limit and protein requirement and showed me how to use My Fitness Pal to record absolutely everything I ate. Initially I wasn’t keen, it seemed such a faff, but it has been brilliant and I feel in complete control using it. She also insisted I get at least ten thousand steps done each day and I had to send her proof every evening. I was daunted .... 6 weeks felt like forever but something had to happen and this way it could only get better. Every morning, Hayley messaged me with encouragement asking how I was doing. It really set me up well for the day ahead and feeling accountable was just what I needed. She addressed any issues or questions as they arose and each evening after I’d check in, I felt like she was cheering me on. Well.... I finished the 6 weeks today and have lost 17lbs. My weekly losses have been consistent, whilst eating more that I ever thought I could whilst on a weight loss plan. Having completed the 6 weeks, I feel fully equipped with the knowledge and habits to continue this journey. I will continue to train with Hayley each week and report my weight at our weekly sessions. I would not be exaggerating when I say that what Hayley has given me goes way beyond the weight loss. She has helped me believe in myself once again, to regain my confidence and has given me a new found love of walking outside. Hayley is a very special Personal Trainer and a really lovely lady. Her desire to help her clients achieve their own personal goals is unique and I would highly recommend anyone looking for an outstanding trainer to get in touch will her.

Fantastic experience: Hayley is amazing. I’ve been having weekly PT sessions with her since March 2022 and it’s been brilliant. She built up my fitness level and strength, pushing hard when I was able, adjusting things based on various injuries and aches/pains and changing the exercises frequently. She has been very supportive and understanding when life has been busy but has also kept me focussed by consistently improving my fitness level and nutrition - I’m the fittest I’ve been for 5 years! I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Hayley was very encouraging, to a complete beginner like myself, and professional. She listened very closely to my responses to questions and tailored each session very carefully to my requirements and abilities. There has been an enforced hiatus in my sessions but I am looking forward to picking up again where we left off as soon as possible. Highly recommended. Simon

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Hayley for 6 months and can highly recommend her as a PT. I had an Achilles injury which had prevented exercise for sometime and made me feel nervous about making it worse. But Hayley is very knowledgeable about injuries and I'm pleased to say it has now fully resolved. Originally I intended to do about 12 weekly sessions just to get me back into exercise but I have enjoyed it so much I am continuing. Each week, the sessions are tailored to your needs whilst building on previous weeks. My overall strength and fitness have improved enormously. As with all exercise, it takes time to get results but Hayley is very supportive and keeps me motivated. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Hayley is the best PT I have used, building up the body sustainably—super focused and purposely going through different muscles that produce the results wanted. Also a friendly and happy person, with always helps! Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Hayley for a few years and cannot begin to thank her enough. The sessions are developed as bespoke as you can get with the attention to detail that I have come to very much appreciate. The manner in which Hayley delivers the sessions in a calm reassuring manner, nothing seems too difficult; until you lift, push, throw etc. Each session is tailored to get the maximum out of the time with a focus and determination from Hayley and myself to achieve as much as possible and to push myself beyond what I thought were my limits. Her incredible sense of humour and encouragement has enable me to not only reach my dream weight and physical shape but a number of personal achievements I didn’t think possible. I cannot recommend Hayley highly enough; be prepared for the challenges and push yourself for the results.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Hayley since 2018. I trained 2-3 times a week in person for 2 years. Hayley was able to accurately assess my needs (posture, weaknesses etc) and what interested me to make training enjoyable, but push me to a level so I could perform exercises I never thought I could. Each session had familiar elements but progressed comfortably and was entertaining. I then moved to another country... when Covid hit, I turned to Hayley for Zoom sessions across time zones (luckily Hayley is organised!). Hayley was able to adapt to simpler online sessions in my home & accommodate my lack of fitness. I was so pleased that the core strength I'd established in person was able to bounce back with online sessions. I trust Hayley's expertise & knowledge, and am inspired by her love of her own training. I very much enjoy her down to earth approach, and frankness. She's genuinely encouraging and great company. I feel fortunate to have found Hayley!

Fantastic experience: Hayley has been training me now for a few months, I have never enjoyed exercise so much! Hayley has really helped me regain confidence in working out. She goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and makes sure that all your needs are being met. Couldn’t recommend more. Thank Hayley ♥️

Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Hayley. She is by far the best PT I have ever worked with! She really takes the time to understand your needs, history and circumstances. I've seen big results and changes just in a few weeks. She is also super friendly and makes you feel at ease whilst instilling confidence.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Hayley for 5 years and I cannot recommend her highly enough. My training journey started with her when I was at my lowest. I have no previous fitness experience. I was middle aged, post 2 babies and I had “let myself go”. I had bad eating habits, I had put on weight, I had terrible exercise tolerance and struggled to walk due to knee pain. I hated myself but I knew something had to change and I knew that going to a gym or group classes was not for me. I was apprehensive about having a personal trainer but after my first meeting with Hayley I couldn’t wait to start. She is so knowledgeable and she knows how to make you feel comfortable. She helped me with my diet and helped me change my eating habits in a non judgemental way . Each training session is personalised to me, to my needs and ability and I never feel that I’m not capable. She varies the exercises so that training doesn’t become monotonous. She is always positive, encouraging and helpful. I enjoy my time with her and look forward to each session. She has made me realise that I can achieve so much more physically than I ever thought possible!

Fantastic experience: I came to Hayley less than 6 months ago with flexibility issues caused by lack of movement during repeated lockdowns. This was restricting my running, something that I had enjoyed immensely before Covid arrived. Hayley listened to my issues and immediately put together a tailored programme for me. In a very short time-period and even with some gaps caused by Christmas / holidays, my flexibility has improved much more than I thought possible and I am back enjoying running. My sessions with Hayley are a key part of my weekly fitness routine and I continue to see improvements every week. Therefore I see my sessions with Hayley as being integral to maintaining and improving my fitness over the coming months and years.

Fantastic experience: Hayley is a great PT - she expertly tailors your overall regime and individual sessions to what you really need (and can do!). Who knew about all the little muscles in your back you need to find. Sessions are highly effective and even fun

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend!! I joined Hayley's Spinning and Group PT sessions during lockdown and I haven't looked back. Hayley is incredibly dedicated Personal Trainer. Her spin classes are fun and challenging, I always feel amazing after the class and ready to tackle the day ahead. Her Group PT session are great fun, intense and challenging training. You are always left incredibly sweaty and smiling at the end. She tailors each attendee workout due to injuries and abilities so no one ever feel left out. Since joining Hayley's sessions my fitness levels and strength have massively increased. She has taught me a lot of different variety of exercises, which I would have probably avoided if I were training on my own. She is such a lovely person takes time to get to know you. Always has happy and positive persona. I can't recommend her enough. If you are looking to make a change to your fitness or even starting as a beginner, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Hayley is an incredibly knowledgable, friendly and professional personal trainer. Her sessions are planned and executed according to your fitness levels but also your personal preferences and in line with goals you set together. I have attended Hayley’s small group PT sessions for a few years now and have thoroughly enjoyed them and made some good friends as well as getting stronger and fitter. As a fellow personal trainer and qualified NHS physiotherapist, I have no hesitation in recommending Hayley.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been getting fitter with Hayley for nearly 2 years and she is awesome! The workouts are really tailored and she gets a lot out of us. The level of base fitness that we are able to maintain through just two hours a week with Hayley is fantastic - I was able to go from not running at all to a half marathon in two weeks because of this. On top of this Hayley is lovely and super reliable. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Hayley for over 2 years now and she has helped change my life for the better! I was incredibly nervous to start personal training but from the very start, Hayley has been so encouraging and supportive. I always look forward to my sessions with Hayley, her training keeps me consistently challenged and her enthusiasm keeps me motivated. It is always such a thrill when you reach a new goal or a personal best you’ve been aiming for in a training session! In addition to being a fantastic trainer, Hayley is also a kind and caring person and is truly committed to helping you achieve your fitness goals. I am much stronger and fitter and feel so much better about myself. I now know how much exercise helps my physical and mental well being and I owe it all to Hayley.

Fantastic experience: Hayley is just amazing! She has been helping me for about 2-3 years now and its so worth it! Throughout my sessions she makes sure I'm moving correctly and using the correct muscles to prevent injury. I have complete trust in her. I always leave my session with them 'feel good' endorphins. I highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend Hayley more. She comes up with creative routines which make energising fun, and the time fly ! Importantly she understands the mind and body connection and tailors each set of exercises to your unique set of requirements. She really challenges in a positive, supportive and constructive way so that you get the best for your body. She is also a realist and understands that we aren’t all going to be good 100percent of the time !! Great results, great fun and the group zoom sessions are also AMAZING!!

Fantastic experience: Hayley Zikri is a caring, knowledgeable and creative personal trainer. I joined her Group Training sessions over zoom at the start of Covid Lockdowns and was absolutely amazed at the diversity of her classes, the effort that she puts into designing them and the expertise of her training. I was able to do exercises that I never dreamt I would be able to do. Importantly, the classes are modified to fit all fitness levels, age groups and preferences. Best fun ever. Recently I have started having personal training sessions with Hayley after recovering from months of illness. The illness had left me not just lacking motivation, but also not believing that I could do it anymore. However, the personal training sessions are clearly catering to my strengths and weaknesses!!!! The focus on ensuring equilibrium of hip joints and finding easier versions of the exercises I'm less good at is brilliant and builds my confidence. My muscle strength is returning and improving and my cardiovascular also. I had acquired an issue with balance and this has significantly improved. I am so happy with these sessions and so motivated again I have started doing some gym classes. Hayley has really helped me believe in myself again and I would recommend her highly! Lots of giggles and laughs help so much too.

Fantastic experience: I've been a client of Hayley's for two years now, and she epitomises absolutely everything you could want from a PT! She's motivational in the best way for you (we're all different, at different levels and need different things!), she's challenging and will push you (if that's what you want of course!), but she does all of this in a completely encouraging, safe and knowledgeable way. She knows what she's doing, just have a look at her fitness achievements and stunning physique! But above all, her passion and care for delivering what you need shines through every session - I honestly enjoy every second of my time with her. I've had a few injuries (due to other sports, not Hayley LOL) during the last couple of years, and she always works around them, adapting with me to make sure I'm not missing out and still getting my much needed mental and physical fix. I couldn't recommend her more, just have a chat with her and you'll see!

Fantastic experience: It’s hard to put into words how amazing Hayley is! I suffer(ed) with severe Hypermobility which meant my shoulders dislocated in and out all day long, along with rarer dislocations of my right hip and both knee caps. I had struggled with chronic pain from these dislocations for years and years. After being referred to surgeons who said the ops wouldn’t be successful and many many Physiotherapists who were even too scared to touch me, I found Hayley! Hayley has a wealth of knowledge on rehabilitating injuries and started me off with just simply getting the right muscles to fire when moving. I quickly graduated to body weight moves and then to small weights and suddenly like that she cured my condition. I haven’t dislocated for years now and have even started weightlifting- I could have never dreamed of picking up a 10kg dumbbell without dislocating, let alone deadlifting 60kg. Hayley is a miracle worker, changing peoples lives. No matter what your aim is in regards to exercise, no matter how hard and how unachievable it feels now, Hayley will get you there!
