A few samples of feedback from some past and present clients
One of the few people to get me out of the kitchen and into the gym! It's not always easy - but certainly worth it!!
Nigella Lawson, London
In 6 weeks Marc has changed my shape more than I thought possible – what was once floppy is now firm and I even have a new bottom!
Suzy Lewis, Belgravia
I've seen various personal trainers, (usually attached to brand name gyms), and I've seen so called specialists in how to use weights. But Marc is the first to deliver a holistic view to training - looking at every aspect of one's approach to exercise - your physiology, your diet, your rest and sleep patterns in tandem with a bespoke exercise programme. Working with Marc - I got a wholly unique work-out for me. What i got was much more than a programme for exercise but a design for life – and a 4% drop in body fat in 6 weeks. If you are prepared to accept Marc's peerless advice on technique, heed his advice ('less is more') on when and when not to train, rest correctly and eat sensibly and proactively then you'll come closer than ever to achieving if not exceeding your expectations from training - Marc is that good. Marc's care and attention to clients is absolute - key to his approach is establishing what you want from exercise, not enforcing what he believes you should get from it. Partnership and trust are key and therein lie the rewards - both physically and mentally. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Marc to anybody looking to attain physical goals and significantly improve their sense of well being

I started training with Marc nearly 6 months ago following a recommendation from a chiropractor at The Light Centre, Belgravia. The idea was to restore stability and balance following an accident and alleviate associated back and shoulder pains. I am happy to say that I saw immediate results from his one on one sessions without the need for further treatments and my workouts are now the backbone of my schedule. I would recommend that anyone training with Marc also use him for nutritional advice.
Duncan Preston, Belgravia
I’ve tried everything, but this actually works! My cravings have stopped, my digestion has improved, my weight has come down by 13lbs and I have my shape back! Thank you Marc!
Olivia Litchtenstein, TV Producer/Director London
It is possibly a testament to Marc that I actually cannot remember how many years he has been training my husband and myself. I believe it is 10 years that he has motivated, stimulated, encouraged and generally kicked our butts into working out on a regular basis. He is personable, straight forward, has the most positive attitude, and is most importantly, dedicated to helping us get the most out of our training and nutritional needs. Needless to say I am slimmer and fitter than I have been in all my adult life – hard work but worth it! I would greatly encourage anyone to use his expertise and patience in hoping to accomplish all of your fitness goals.
Sue Harris, Chiswick
For me he has been pretty inspirational. I came to Marc through a recommendation, initially for just a few sessions to help with my nutrition and energy levels. Several months later I am now a regular client. He has gradually developed my nutrition and my training and boosted my confidence and motivation through his positive manner. I have developed muscles everywhere and feel so proud of what he has helped me achieve!
Patrick Towell, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
I originally started working with Marc five years ago because I wanted to improve the poor balance and coordination that were hampering my attempts to become a long-distance walker. Since then, I’ve successfully completed a 99-day, 2,000 km trek across Europe.
During those five years, Marc has also helped me with various health issues, including migraines and a gut condition. He knows more about the workings of the human body than anyone else I’ve consulted. Thanks to Marc, I’m now, aged 66, fitter, stronger, and healthier than I’ve ever been. Marc is also good fun. I look forward to my PT sessions each week.

I have been training with Marc for almost a year now and I have noticed an improvement in muscle tone, energy levels and general well-being. Marc is not only proficient in physical fitness but his knowledge extends to body mechanics, nutrition and weight management. I have been plagued by a painful knee due to a ski accident and Marc has helped me regain mobility and stability in my knee. The pain has also diminished. Marc is pleasant and instills a positive attitude into the workouts. He has adopted a holistic approach to health and fitness. I can highly recommend him to anyone interested in improving their overall physical and mental well-being.

I went to see Marc after a series of unsuccessful attempts to alleviate my right hip pain. I first had problems with my hip 2 years ago but nothing major - I was fairly active doing some yoga, swimming and jogging but nothing regularly and at first my hip only bothered me during extreme movements or if sitting too long without moving however eventually it became and everyday niggle that I was aware of whenever I walked and became painful during exercise. After a trip to the GP, x-ray and MRI scans the physio decided it was a muscle imbalance and I set about doing my exercises every day. However if anything this seemed to make the pain worse and more prevalent so after a few months my motivation reduced and I subconsciously resigned myself to a less active lifestyle saying things like "I'd like to do that but I can't because of my hip". Eventually - probably fed up of my moaning - my boyfriend convinced me to see Marc and amazingly after 2 hours of twisting, funny walking and lunging my leg felt much better and I can honestly say has not hurt in the same way since this session. I do have some exercises to help maintain this but can't believe that one 2-hour session could make all the difference 6 months of scans and physiotherapy couldn't help.
