Great guy, great service and I’m very pleased with the results so far. Thank you Gavin.
I started training with DeadFit some time back and let me tell you, This is NOT just about training, lifting weights and running on treadmills... its about habit forming which ultimately leads to much healthier lifestyle.

I started training with DeadFit some time back and let me tell you, This is NOT just about training, lifting weights and running on treadmills... its about habit forming which ultimately leads to much healthier lifestyle. I have been a gym goer for a number of years and was struggling to see results because of bad habits, including over eating and many more. Gavin has done an amazing job in getting my training on track with an ever changing set of exercises that suit me, but also, helping me track my food. The really cool thing about joining DeadFit is you are not just getting Gavin as a PT, but you join a community of really awesome people who encourage one another. If you are the type, there is a very active Whatsapp group where we even set group challenges and keep each other honest and accountable. Gavin has created an exceptional program here and I cannot recommend it more. If you are just starting out or you are ritualistic gym goer, this is for you! Join now, you will not be sorry. Less

Gavin worked with me for over a year and he has been so motivating and supportive. I’ve grown both physically and mentally as someone who was too scared to go to the gym to know being able to do confidently do my workouts. Super grateful and i’d recommend to anyone looking for help with fitness and nutrition :)
I have struggled with my weight all my life due to an endocrine disorder. I would have sporadic periods where I went to the gym frequently but always gave up as I never saw the results.

I have struggled with my weight all my life due to an endocrine disorder. I would have sporadic periods where I went to the gym frequently but always gave up as I never saw the results. I’ve done every diet under the sun and experienced the same. I ventured into the gym nervous and expecting to fail yet again at strengthening my body and improving my health both physical and mental and there was Gavin. He looked like my type of person and I’m so glad I gathered my courage and went with my gut. He has helped me so much with my confidence (I was always super anxious in a busy gym) and he is pushing me with good humour, understanding and a great music taste towards my goals. I have never seen the results of my hard work on my body before and I was so pleasantly surprised when I saw the progress I have made! I am stronger and happier than I have been in years, his programmes are interesting and designed not to be boring and repetitive. The app is fantastic and lets you keep track of your workouts so you never forget what you did/lifted on the previous session and it links in with fitness watched and MFP. Any questions you have, Gavin gives advice and support as well as motivational videos (and voice notes), information and shares posts and experiences that are always helpful. Gavin encourages supports and inspires and he’s changed my life. Less
Great service from Gavin and brilliant value. You don’t just get awesome PT sessions, you also get access to an app to track your progress, eating targets and there’s plenty of videos for several different exercises. If you’re looking to improve your health & fitness, I 100% recommend DeadFit.
What an excellent personal trainer we have in Gavin! He has taken on the task of training my partner who has cerebral palsy down one side. The confidence and self belief he has given her through her exercises is unbelievable. I would recommend deadfit personal trainer Gavin 100% to anyone who wants to get fit in the gym to seek him out.
Awesome PT, really listens to what you need and has taken on (and succeeded with) clients that other PTs would think twice about taking. Hard guy to not get along with and has even made me (half-man half-sloth) end up going to the gym four times a week! You won't be disappointed.
I can honestly say that being apart of Deadfit has been the best gym experience in my 58 years to date, Gavin Dawson has inspired me over the last 20 weeks to embrace and enjoy the benefits to my health & wellness of a structured enjoyable fitness plan also happily he’s a motivational happy soul who explains, demonstrates best practice, technique then puts it into an easy plan on the apt also you...

Started working with Gavin a few months back, wanting to tone up and lose some inches for my wedding. I have a history of varying injuries which have really knocked my confidence in the gym, and was mentally beating myself up and in a bad place. Gavin has helped hugely to tailor the workouts so I feel confident to lift weights and make progress, I can see my shape starting to change and feel excited to be back working out. He trains me and my fiancé at the same time, and from the WhatsApp group chat I can tell Gavin tailors his approach to be most effective for the person in front of him at the time. Highly recommend as he’s been a great support all round for both of us. Thanks Gav 😊 Less
My husband and I started training with Gavin last month. Both of us are seeing positive results because the training plans are actually maintainable and enjoyable! Sessions with Gavin are great, really focusing on the right form and finding exercises suited to the individual. Would highly recommend
Top personal trainer. Loads of knowledge and experience in just about everything to do with fitness. Very friendly and approachable
Gavin has taught me alot within the gym and with weights, i have managed to build up more confidence and will keep it going... he will be sadly missed at our gym.
Gavin is a great guy who brings great energy into a space. He is an amazing trainer, he listens and helps you feel confident with your fitness journey and this comes naturally to him. He is always on hand to provide answers to any fitness/ weight loss questions you may have and his additional ‘deadfit’ app and ‘dead tasty’ recipes make it so much easier to keep on track.

Gavin is a great guy who brings great energy into a space. He is an amazing trainer, he listens and helps you feel confident with your fitness journey and this comes naturally to him. He is always on hand to provide answers to any fitness/ weight loss questions you may have and his additional ‘deadfit’ app and ‘dead tasty’ recipes make it so much easier to keep on track. He’s fun and full of charisma, but you can see he takes his job seriously and I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to enjoy losing weight or just get fitter! In the shoe loft time that I worked with him I grew confidence at the gym and in myself made some great fitness leaps and dropped two dress sizes. Sadly he’s leaving the gym that I go to, there’s only one Gavin and he will be missed by many! Less
Gavin has done the impossible to possible - make me enjoy working out! Going to the Gym! He has given me and education on how to eat without missing out on any of my favourites! He is more than a PT he's a great friend too! He will path the way of your fitness journey and make you achieve things you thought you can never do!! I can lift weights and do boxing!! Excellent PT!
The best PT I've ever worked with. That's no exaggeration - Gavin has given me confidence to work out and feel part of a community at the gym.

At a certain point during our second or third ever session Gavin confessed to me that he liked peanut butter and salad cream sandwiches. It horrified me to my core and since then has completely overshadowed how good of a PT he is. No but seriously, my last text to Gavin was "I just tried climbing up the stairs - I hate you so much 😭".

I would 100% recommend, Gavin is an absolute legend 🙌 Absolutely love my training sessions with him. He's taught me so much over the last few years but most importantly he's given me the confidence to go it alone.
The fear of using the big old weights that all the women see the men using, quickly disappeared after the first session training with Gavin. He listens to my insecurities and pushes me to train big and train hard. As a petite woman, I never thought I could do half the things I can do now, thanks to Gavin.

Where do I start? Gavin and I have trained together for around 2 and a half years. I remember seeing him in the gym and thinking ‘he’s my kinda person’. The rest was history. We trained hard remotely through lockdown with the best team, all via zoom. As the gyms re opened, I was then equipped with all the strength I needed to start training properly in the gym. I started with Gavin because I didn’t have a clue how to exercise correctly without hurting myself or doing the same old boring routine. He taught me, joked with me, gave me a shoulder to cry on many many MANY times and I’m proud to call him a friend. He’s not just a PT, he’s a loud, crazy and wonderful man who has helped me shed my weight and taught me how to change my lifestyle to maintain. I’m the strongest and leanest I’ve every been and have changed my outlook on fitness and dieting. I will forever be grateful for the work we have done together and I look forward to continuing. 11/10 fully recommended for training, 5* for the laughs. Less

If you are looking for a personal trainer with a difference and willing to make the lifestyle changes look no further. Gavin will give you the 5 star 🌟 workout with results.
I was looking for a PT who would meet all my fitness needs to achieve my goals, but also had an enjoyable personality to interact with. I can honestly say that all the boxes were ticked. I gained muscle, controlled my fat weight, learnt about muscle groups and how they function as you exercise, as well as having fun and banter.
Gavin is not only super professional, but he's an awesome guy with a great way with people. He pushes you just enough and every moment is a learning opportunity. I've learned so much in a very short space of time (and surprised myself) and I'm already starting to see some great results in terms of my weight, shape and fitness.

If you want someone who will motivate you to work hard and educate and empower you as a person, then look not further than Gavin. Gavin is an excellent personal trainer and teacher. He has helped me learn about my body and utilise weights to get the best outcome. As someone who was self-confident and thought they were weak and useless. Gavin has helped me to surpass all my initial expectations. So now I feel strong, worthy, and have every right to be in the weights section of the gym! Gavin understands that to make positive changes, a person also needs support at the gym and at home. So if you need that extra guidance through the week to make sure you are looking after your mind, body, and soul, then Gavin will give you that attention. I honestly can say that making the choice to work with Gavin has been the best decision for me, and I know it will be for you! So what are you waiting for? Less

Can't recommend Gavin strongly enough. Knowledgeable and informative while keeping things easy to understand, with on the fly advice and recommendations that really help, and a perfect blend of app based and face to face contact. Gavin is a PT for the modern age, putting g a new spin on old techniques. 5 out of 5
