Our dedicated trainers are here to guide you on your fitness journey.
Rob
I'm Rob, owner of R and B Fitness. I qualified as a Personal Trainer in 2015. Then, I continued my knowledge to become an advanced Level 4 Personal Trainer. Over the years, I wanted to help people achieve their fitness goals in a more sustainable way. Therefore, in 2021, I launched R and B Fitness, where our aim is to provide clients with the personalised programs they would receive in a costly 1-to-1 session but within our community-based small group PT sessions at fraction of the cost. Not only do I run R and B Fitness, but I also have an online PT platform and help residents in care homes rebuild their mobility and strength. I am also qualified in sports massage and hold a Level 4 certification in Nutrition. No matter your fitness level or background, my mission is to support you in building strength, confidence, and long-term results. Whether you're training in our gym, working with me online, or improving mobility later in life, I'm here to help you every step of the way.

As a busy mum of three, I understand the challenges of balancing fitness with daily life. That’s why I create flexible, effective programs that fit seamlessly into your routine.
