and strength training for endurance athletes
it’s time you put yourself first
Amid the hustle and bustle of life, we often overlook the most vital element - ourselves. We spend our time meeting the needs of those around us, only to put our own on the back burner. But it's time for a change. It's time to put yourself first. This isn't about being selfish, but rather about self-care, self-love, and self-respect.
At THE SECRET PT, I believe that to give your best, you need to be at your best. That starts with taking care of your health and fitness. I’m here to help you take that bold step towards prioritising your wellbeing, your aspirations, and your happiness. My personalised training and nutrition programs are designed to meet your unique goals, whether that's achieving fat loss, preparing for motherhood, or enhancing your athletic endurance.
Remember, you can't pour from an empty cup. Embrace the journey of self-discovery, unlock your potential, and watch as everything else falls into place. You are important, your needs matter, and in the grand scheme of life, you are your most enduring investment.
It's time to put yourself first.

1 TO 1
PERSONAL TRAINING
Personalised one-on-one training is the ultimate commitment you can make to your well-being. At THE SECRET PT, you'll partner directly with me (Sam) in my exclusive studio, following a custom-designed program that propels you towards your goals faster than ever. Whether you're looking to lose fat, build lean muscle, add strength to your running, or anything in between, my personal training packages are designed to deliver results while ensuring your journey is enjoyable and sustainable.
ONLINE COACHING
At The Secret PT, I pride myself on providing the most comprehensive and personalised online personal training experience on the market. Unlike other online training programs in excel sheets, I offer:
Real-time progress tracking and monitoring: our app allows you to track your progress and receive instant feedback from myself.
(steps/sleep/calories/weight) are just a few of the features on the interface
In app tracking of all your workouts, measurements, stats etc.
The Results You Can Expect
At THE SECRET PT, my impact is measured by the feedback & transformations of the amazing individuals who have put their trust in us over the years. Whether that’s been a beautiful twin pregnancy gone to plan and ready to take on the joys of motherhood post-pregnancy, building lean muscle ready for a holiday and achieving a physique they never thought possible, and various dedicated runners conquering ultra-marathon wins.
These are the victories I revel in, and they are the transformative results you can expect when you embark on your fitness journey with me at THE SECRET PT.
JESS
"When I found out I was expecting, I knew I wanted to stay active and healthy for both myself and my baby. From 10 weeks pregnant until the birth, I worked with Sam weekly, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Sams understanding of pre-natal fitness is excellent, and he tailored a program that was both safe and challenging. I felt stronger, more energetic, and more prepared for the physical demands of pregnancy than I ever thought possible.
When it was time for the birth, I truly felt the benefits of the training. I had a good birth experience and I believe my fitness level played a significant role in that. Post-birth, I feel empowered and ready to start the next chapter of my life as a new mum.
Thank you for the incredible support and guidance!"
GEMMA
"Six months ago, I made a decision that changed my life. I was carrying a significant amount of extra weight, and I knew it was time for a change.
From the moment I started with Sam, I knew I had made the right choice. His sessions combined challenging workouts and smart nutrition guidance. It wasn't about quick fixes or drastic diets, but sustainable habits and lifestyle changes.
Sam is great at providing the encouragement, support, and accountability that I need. Each week, I can see and feel the changes - my energy levels are up, my clothes are fitting better, and best of all, I am losing the fat.
I've lost a significant amount of fat and gained an immeasurable amount of confidence and happiness. The journey hasn't always been easy, but with THE SECRET PT, it was absolutely worth it. I couldn't recommend Sam more highly to anyone looking to transform their body and their life. Thank you for helping me become the best version of myself!"
PAUL
"I've always loved running, but the Bob Graham Round was a challenge I'd been dreaming of for years. A 66-mile route with 42 peaks, it was no easy feat, and I knew I'd need some professional guidance to prepare. That's when I turned to THE SECRET PT for help.
Sam took me through roughly 24 weeks of an online strength plan, and it was nothing short of a game-changer. Each phase brought new, tailored workouts that focused not only on my running endurance, but also on building the strength necessary to tackle the tough terrain and elevations of the round.
Sam was with me every step of the way, providing motivation, guidance, and expert advice. I loved the convenience of the online training, and having access to workout videos and progress tracking through their app was a massive plus.
When the big day came, I felt stronger and more prepared than I ever had before. I completed the Bob Graham Round in 21 hours. I can't thank THE SECRET PT enough for their invaluable help in making my dream a reality. I highly recommend online training to anyone looking to push their limits and achieve their fitness goals!"
