I have been reluctant about doing exercise for years but I am now totally in love with Martin Yabsley's training style. In the seven months I have been training at X The Finish Line my whole body shape has changed and I am fitter than I have ever been. Martin takes the time to get to know you, know what you want to achieve and then tailors his programmes to suit you. He is a realist and never pressures you into unrealistic lifestyle changes. Rather, he makes exercise fun and uses heaps of encouragement to help you progress and reach your goals. Each session is varied to keep it interesting and he is a pleasure to work with. I would recommend X The Finish Line to anyone from the sloth to the body builder.
Martin is an amazing personal trainer. Each session is tailored to me, to doing what I enjoy and to reaching the goals we set together. Martin is a great motivator and helps me to push myself to make the most out of our sessions. I have enjoyed every session I have had with Martin and look forward to them each week!
I have had personal training sessions with different instructors but I found X the Finish Line Personal Training gave me the best results in a very short matter of time. Martin takes time to listen to what you wish to achieve then tailors a program which best suits you. I could see a massive difference in many areas of my fitness and while I was working out really hard, I found the sessions very enjoyable and felt like I had achieved something after every session.
I met with Martin in August 2012 with a history of lower back issues and the aim to go on a diving holiday in October. We worked primarily on my core stability and built on from that. By October I was strong and able diver and it made for a fantastic holiday. Everyone has different needs and abilities and Martin respects this completely. His one-to-one service is exactly that. Martin has offered great encouragement and support and has given me the confidence in my bodies ability to continue to exercise safely. Thanks Martin!
I started training with Martin, after time off exercise due to injury. His attention to good form and ability to motivate, is second to none. Workouts with Martin are always fun and innovative. I've happily recommended Xthe Finishing line to friends and family. He even has access to different gyms, so you can choose a location to suit. The beautiful Bon Port cliffs in the sun or some boxing in the Market, no workout is the same. Martin will discuss goals and adapt the sessions to suit your personality and preferences. Above all Martin is always happy and you can't fail to be inspired to improve your health and fitness, with his support. An awesome personal trainer!
Started training with Martin 5 months ago and I can honestly say I've enjoyed every single session. As a keen horse rider who's getting on a bit I was finding that despite riding 5-6 times a week I just wasn't fit enough or strong enough to be as effective as I used to be (and this is despite doing bootcamp 3 times a week). Plus chronic back pain and shoulder pain was slowing me down. My challenge for Martin was to design me a sports specific program that would help me become a better rider. I remember he admitted that he didn't know much about riding when we started, but I reckon that he's put in a lot of study since (because he now uses all the riding lingo) and has come up with some really innovative exercises (there have been lots of laughs too) to help develop the riding muscles. I am now stronger and fitter than I've ever been and I've had no back or shoulder pain.since I started. Plus I'm a much more effective and confident rider. I love training with Martin he really does put the personal back into personal training and I would recommend him to anybody.
Training sessions with Martin are never the same twice. He brings something new each time and challenges me to push myself further than I ever would if I traipsed round a gym on my own. Having discussed my physical condition, he has researched what will help me and teaches me why we're doing each exercise as we do it. And if a session or exercise isn't working, we immediately adapt and learn from it, helping to refine future sessions. Martin is enthusiastic, motivating and determined to get the best out of you every time. I've already recommended him to people who have also started loving their workouts with him. Whether you have a specific target in mind, or just want to feel better about yourself, Martin can help. Be under no illusion, the workouts are not easy. But they're definitely worth the effort.
XTFL is the 3rd PT I've been with and the one I've stayed with the longest. A good balance of motivation, inspiration and perspiration has put me in a position where, under the guidance of Martin, I feel confident enough to enter a Tough Mudder race this year. Friendly banter and his ability to push me when I need it along side taking the time to understand me and adapt programs to meet my needs menas I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending XTFL to anyone
I have been with X the finish line for 4 months now and have finally found a formula that works, i have lost over 16 kg and over 8 inches from my waist, due to the great one to one training and support during training and my diet i have been able to change my life around and gained so much more confidence with myself. Martin has inspired me to strive to become the person i always knew i could be and i'd like to say a big thank you to him for that. I have a long road ahead but i know with his motivation and guidance i will easily get there.
Martin Yabsley is the best personal trainer I have ever come across. He is motivating without being overly pushy, understanding of your needs and actually listens to what you want, so creating a workout that is completely bespoke. I also love the fact that he is flexible, allowing me to fit classes in to my work schedule.
How committed and passionate Martin is about his job and the well being of his clients good health helping them to over come all obstacles with great support
Before I started training with Martin I had gained weight having taken a 5 month break from an intense training regime. I had lost confidence and was feeling tired and lazy. In my first session (which was free) Martin assessed my fitness levels, we talked about my goals and by the end I was already feeling extremely motivated and looking forward to my next session. 3 months later I am back down to my previous training weight, have lost inches all over, quit smoking, reduced alcohol consumption, completely overhauled my diet and...entered a marathon. I am feeling much healthier, stronger and confident and best of all, need to go shopping for new clothes! Cannot recommend X The Finish Line highly enough - my training sessions are always varied and they fly by; I particularly enjoy TRX training which is great for the core. Martin is an expert in his field - he always explains the reason for doing something so that I understand how it is helping me to achieve my goal. I can always ask him for advice anytime and I know that my program is tailored to ME - not anybody else. He will be able to help you no matter what your goal/fitness level. If you are reading this you must be tempted...So book a free session today - what have you got to lose?
I have been training once a week with Martin at X The Finish Line for about a month and a half now and am loving it. The 45 mins whizz by because Martin makes each session varied and interesting. He knows just how much I can take and how much he can push me. I am enjoying trying exercises I have never done before like boxing and am glad he is there making me work on areas I would normally neglect. Martin is very personable and makes working out enjoyable! You leave feeling good about yourself and wanting to return for more. I am toning up and am looking forward to fitting in that Christmas dress and feeling better about myself.
Martin is an absolute first class personal trainer. What sets him apart is his real ability to listen to his clients and tailor each session to their needs and requirements. He appreciates that everyone is different and wants to get fit / tone up for different reasons. He pushes you gently at first then steps it up a gear so you really get results. He also makes each session fun and varied and explains the benefits of each exercise. Martin is a genuinely caring and knowledgeable fitness professional - I can't recommend him more highly.
X The Finish Line Martin is brilliant! I've always hated the thought of a personal trainer as I felt it would be embarrassing but Martin makes you feel at ease straight away and treats everyone as an individual. I feel absolutely buzzing when I finish a session and he has given me my motivation and focus back and makes me feel I can achieve my personal goals. I can't recommend him highly enough!
Excellent personal training. Can't recommend Martin highly enough. He's got stacks of knowledge, he's a great motivator, and he obviously cares about getting the best results for each person. If you want general fitness, he can guide you and you'll quickly see the results and the benefits. If you want sports-specific coaching, he'll build a unique fitness programme that will produce far better performances than you'd imagined. In the past six weeks of seeing Martin I've dropped over half a stone in overall weight, but have also turned a load of fat into lean muscle. I've trimmed 3.5in off my waistline, got shoulders I'm proud of, and I'm fitter than I've been in 15 years or more. He's also a walking advert for his own fitness techniques. Make sure you try his TRX training. Tough work, but you'll love the results.
Very personable, varied and interested in all round health and fitness. Always stretches you as well which is essential especially the older you get! The surroundings aren't plush but that's not what you are there for and he charges a reasonable rate. He's also not afraid to use the outdoors and has easy access to fields and cliff paths. Highly recommended.
Totally brilliant! In just weeks my overall fitness has improved out of sight. Martin is highly motivated and motivating and works all muscle groups. I have strength, definition and stamina. Cannot recommend X The Finish Line more highly.
At last a trainer who listens. I have been training with Martin now for a few weeks and not only has my fitness improved dramatically but I look foward to my PT sessions . Martin's knowledge and patience has given me my confidence back. Would highly recommend to anyone!
I have been training with Martin for a couple of months now. At the start I felt totally physically restricted, my muscles had seized and as a consequence my physical confidence was low. I canât tell you how different I feel in that short space of time, I feel so much fitter, my core is so much stronger, my confidence has increased and all in all I feel like a whole new person. A couple of weeks ago I taught my first yoga class in months which I certainly wouldnât have been able to do without Martin's constant support and encouragement.
Martin offers a relaxed environment to train but pushes you to the limit for maximum results. Martin varies training which keeps my level of interest high and I always look forward to the next session. I will continue to do both the classes and personal training with the X the Finish Line as it is both enjoyable and highly beneficial to my levels of fitness.
If you want someone honest, professional and encouraging and someone who listens then I can only recommend Martin. He puts in huge effort to get you the results you want and that makes you push yourself more. I know that my training session is tailored only to me and that he is not rolling out the same "fits all" exercise programme.
Since using Martin I have felt fitter, stronger and better within myself. Martin has the knowledge to help you gain what you want and make you feel comfortable while doing so. I would highly reccomend Martin to anyone wanting to get in shape and enjoy doing so.
X The Finish Line offers an excellent programme to meet your needs in every way. Martin has given me confidence in my ability and I would highly recommend to anybody wanting to improve their fitness.
