Headstrong Health & Fitness

I’ve worked with Jessica for over a year and she is incredible. She is so reasuring,positive and encouraging. She has taught me so much and not only helped me make positive physical changes but my mental health and confidence has greatly improved. I started with Jessica as a complete novice when it came to weight training. She has taught me so much and given me the confidence to feel relaxed and confident going to the gym while getting the best results.

When I started with Jessica 10 months ago I wasn’t in great shape physically or mentally. Jessica is so kind, supportive, knowledgeable & professional. She guided me through everything at exactly the right pace. I am now comfortable lifting weights & doing other exercises I never thought I would be able to do. I feel stronger mentally as well as physically & I’m so glad I took the decision & started to see Jessica regularly. It has changed my life.

Jessica is knowledgable, kind and effective.I started working with jessica about a year ago and haven't looked back. She has been the driver for so much positive change on my life that i didn't necesarily know i needed at the time.I initially approached Jessica to introduce me to the gym. I have always played sports but hadn't ever incorporated gym workouts. I also didn't want to focus on body image and calorie counting but rather wanted to gain confidence, build strength and care for my body in the long term. Jessicas holistic approach to fitness and wellbeing really resonates with me.I have noticed changes in my body from the get go, without ever having to think about 'less'. Rather, our focus has been on 'more' and ensuring my body, and mind, are getting everything they need. I can actively see improvements filter through into the sports i play as i can perform at a higher level and recover quicker.With jessica there is no one size fits all template, rather she listens actively to my changing goals and schedule and adapts accordingly. Jessica is so much fun to work with, i always look forward to our sessions. This is a place where the 'work' doesn't feel like work, where 'bad' days don't bring us down and where compassion rules. Also, the tunes be bangin.

As a person who is currently working with Jessica I would 100% absolutely recommend her as a personal trainer.I approached Jessica around 6 months ago looking for guidance and support. Although I am consistent with exercise, I knew my nutrition and diet could be better. I had tried different plans and approaches but was never consistent with these, resulting in feelings of failure, limited results and being stuck in a destructive cycle and mindset.Approaching Jessica was nerve wracking but has been the best decision I have ever made for my health. Jessica is very knowledgable and was able to support me with making changes in a way which was realistic and achievable for me. Jessica was very reassuring and it was comforting to know that I wasn’t the only one who felt this way.My mind is now my biggest asset for nutrition and training as Jessica has helped to fill this with positivity and helpful knowledge.This has helped me feel in control whilst still enjoying food and exercise - something I feel I can sustain in the long-term.Jessica has challenged that negative voice in my head telling me I can’t do something and I’m now more confident with my technique and using weight lifting equipment at the gym.For anyone who feels they need some support and guidance with training and/or nutrition, Jessica is your answer. She is a lovely, kind and knowledgable PT who takes the time to understand your goals and will help you get there

After only using cardio equipment in the gym for years I started with Jessica to give me the confidence to lift weights and build strength. Her holistic approach has achieved this ensuring I now have the skills and knowledge to lift free weights and resistance train safely on my own. However, two years later I still train with Jessica twice a week as her sessions are well thought out and motivational. She is constantly reassessing my training needs and programme to make sure I continue to progress. Jessica has also been there when I've asked for nutritional guidance giving me the correct level of support. Along with all her knowledge and experience Jessica is an extremely warm, friendly, approachable and above all supportive PT. BUT best of all in this busy life it is wonderful to spend two hours a week with someone who is there just for me! I highly recommend Jessica as a PT.

Jess has helped me get back into going to the gym and eating well again after a long lockdown of not doing that. Throughout going to Jess I have learned so much more about how to use equipment at the gym correctly and what to use it for, which in turn has helped me gain confidence in going back to the gym.She has helped me gain a knowledge of nutrition to go along with the training which and helped me see results, before I knew little about the eating side of training and just went to the gym and stuck with what I knew. Whereas now Jess has helped me use both these skills together to make a change.I would highly recommend training with Jess as she has well rounded knowledge of training and her positivity encourages you to better yourself !

I have been going to Jessica for a few years now and I can't recommend her enough. She is such an amazing, caring, talented and hard working person. She not only helps you get strong and fit and into the best shape you've been she also helps you with understanding foods and what's going on on the inside. When I started with Jessica I was at my heaviest and lowest I have ever been and didn't know how to help myself. My anxiety was so bad that I avoided going out with friends and I was stuck in a job I thought I couldn't leave.Since working with Jessica I have not only lost weight and toned up ! I am now in a job I love, I feel alot happier in myself, I am the STRONGEST I have ever been ! I feel better physically and mentally and I can even go into a gym by myself which was something I was always too scared to do. She has pushed me in all the right directions over the past few years to achieve this and has helped educate me in so many ways possible. I am so happy I have someone this amazing as my PT.

I was really uncomfortable and nervous before going to see Jessica as i have never enjoyed the whole gym atmosphere. Jessica is very understanding of how you perceive yourself and really good at putting you at ease. The changes to my body composition and mindset have been impressive to say the least. I really enjoy my time with her at the gym and she is so positive and encouraging. If you are looking for a PT then look no further as Jessica has such a vast all round knowledge and i would recommend her wholeheartedly as a positive, uplifting and inspiring PT.

I’ve been going to Jessica for a year and half and it’s been brilliant - cannot recommend her enough. I first sought help with my fitness because I’d been working ‘physical’ jobs for years and although I was up on my feet during work and cycling about 8 miles every day I was about to change career to a desk job, working from home and knew my every day movement would completely change. I was also at a low point mentally and had never really challenged my body to see what it was capable of - that’s where Jessica’s positive, realistic and holistic understanding of mind and body came into its own.We’ve worked on overall body strength with amazing results. I had lower back pain for years (tall person problems!) but that’s totally gone now. I’ve also found a balance of weight training and different cardio that’s totally sparked new interests and hobbies through Jessica’s encouragement and positivity for enjoying fitness - I’ve gained loads of confidence in trying out different sports. Its been a huge confidence boost to hit my 30s in the best shape I’ve ever been. I can’t really imagine my life now without exercise or training, it’s become really integrated into my life. Of course there’s been down points when life’s made that more difficult, but Jessica has such a balanced and understanding outlook on life that I’ve been supported through the low times too. I’ve become more resilient in both mind and body.I also have to say how much I enjoy the sessions! We have great chats about all sorts and I feel like I’m totally myself in Jessica’s company. Again, can’t recommend Jessica more - my training with her has completely gone over and above expectations.

Jessica means business! 18 months ago I was sluggish, overweight and felt truly middle aged!I started training with Jessica and the journey began - loads of laughter with a lot of personal determination thrown in! 18 months later I am 2 stone lighter, stronger and feel fantastic. Jessica is very knowledgeable so her sessions are varied, fun and challenging to your own personal level.She’ll change your mindset as well as your body! This wee diamond deserves all 5 stars and more.
