Elite Performance HQ

The 19kg weight loss should be enough to say how good Mick and EP is, but it’s so much more than that. Mick has changed my entire approach to fitness, diet and well-being and I highly recommend the facility.Mick has shown support, guidance and patience on my fitness journey - one I’ve maintained despite in the past always giving up at the gym after 6 months or so.A range of fitness classes as well as 1:1 support has changed my life as I now feel the fittest, strongest and most knowledgeable I’ve ever been when it comes to health and fitness and that’s solely down to Mick and the EP team.

I’ve Been training with Mick at elite performance hq since it first opened. Mick helped me train for my first Ironman triathlon last year. He has helped me push myself beyond what I thought I was capable of. Brilliant facility with a great group of members.

Great facility and staff!I started off with a 6 week transformation programme run by Mick who is knowledgeable, passionate and supportive as a trainer. The programme gradually built up in difficulty and the progress I made was brilliant! The transformation gives you the perfect start you need to get into good exercise and eating habits.After completing this programme I joined as a ‘member’ and now attend 3 or 4 sessions a week, mixing between small group or 1-2-1 sessions and the larger sessions that make up the ongoing transformation programmes.The improvement seen in my fitness levels has been amazing and I actually enjoy getting up and going to EHPQ even in the dark, early mornings - although I doubt I’ll ever enjoy burpees!Thank you Mick (and more recently Alanis!)!

The Elite Performance HQ is a fantastic fitness training venue in Preston.Head Coach Mick is extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of fitness training, as well as being a great guy.Highly recommended.IanGymWolfPT

Mick is a fantastic fitness coach.I joined EPHQ more than a year ago, on the 6 week course, and I have continued as a member with 2 to 3 sessions a week since.The atmosphere is great, very relaxed, and the other members are supportive and not critical.I was in no way a gym bunny"

I joined EP a few weeks ago and am loving it!The sessions are brilliant and its exactly what I've been looking for. Mick is very knowledgeable and varies the sessions enough to make them feel fresh.I've struggled motivating myself to go to the gym on my own in the past, but here, I feel part of a group who are all welcoming with no egos.

Where do I start?!....... This place is everything you need in a gym! The environment is nothing I have ever experienced at a gym. It's amazing! The members are so welcoming - there is such a positive vibe all around the place.Mick - now this guy knows his stuff! He is so motivating and positive with everything he does. He pushes us all into becoming so much stronger.I highly recommend this place to anyone - no matter your fitness or ability level.

I joined Elite Performance in January as someone who had not trained for a long time. I was someone who was out of my comfort zone with gym work and needed some guidance. I joined up initially on a transformation programme and was genuinely surprised at my results! I’d gained muscle mass and lost fat. This was exactly what I’d been told by the highly knowledgeable trainers. The atmosphere at EP is superb and there are a lot of like minded individuals who soon became friends. I’ve since joined as a member and have continued my progress with weights, cardio and body weigh exercises. I’m nearly 45 but have never felt fitter. I would highly recommend EP to everybody…a nervous newcomer or experienced gym goer!

To say Mick is an expert in his field would be a total understatement. Seeing the calibre of athletes he has worked with proves this beyond any doubt, so signing up was a little bit daunting. I am not what you would call an elite athlete but am made to feel it with Mick's approach. My plan is personal to me or I can join in one of the group sessions. From the very first session everything he set out was achievable. There are no ridiculous calorie restrictions, no unrealistic targets. The sessions are tough but they help to push yourself that little bit extra. Wellbeing is not just physical, Mick is never too busy just to sit and have a chat with a coffee. I feel fitter and stronger than I have done for about 20 years and I put that down to Elite Performance.
