About Me


James Barfoot


Premier Global Personal Training Diploma Level 3, 

YMCA Personal Trainer Certificate Level 3

CIMSPA Membership 

I have been a personal trainer for over 12 years working with everyone from people with chronic pain, to those starting their fitness journey through to clients who have worked with me for years. From my experience of training people from different levels of fitness I know first hand the benefits of exercise. 

I have seen people focus on what they think they can't do when it comes to exercise instead of focusing on what they can do. When you do this you prevent yourself from experiencing all these benefits and more -

I worked at Nuffield Health Gym in Aberdeen for over 10 years. I was an experienced personal trainer as well as supporting their outreach community program working with people who experienced chronic pain. Each week in a small group setting I provided them with information on exercises suitable for their condition. 

Reviews from clients - 

"I have been training with James for a couple of years and he has made a massive difference to my confidence. He puts together workouts which are effective and enjoyable and explains everything so I understand what I am doing.  Now I actually look forward to my workouts! James always listens to my goals and preferences."

Phoebe Tilzey

"James is a very good personal trainer. He keeps me motivated throughout the training. He is easy to talk to, helpful and happy to give me advice when I ask for it. James has managed to improve my physical health and strength. His style of training by teaching exercises in stages helped me to be confident and manage to do harder exercises. 

Lavita Berzina

"We have really enjoyed working with James.  His approach is totally supportive and encouraging.  He is great with people who haven't exercised for a while or don't feel comfortable in a big gym situation"
