Over the years I've had many sessions with Brett at Pure Defiance, and I can honestly say he is not only very knowledgeable of his craft but actively looking for new ways to achieve his clients' potential. Brett understands where his clients want to go with their lifestyle and knows exactly how to address exercises and nutritional advice accurately to meet their needs. Would highly recommend him.

Had my first PT session with Brett today, what can I say. I am broken from being put through my paces. If you need some motivation, exercise or nutritional advice you have come to the right place. Brett has struck the right balance between pushing you and helping you at the same time. Highly recommend.

If you want to be trained by someone who really knows their stuff and how to train you to your own individual needs then Pure Defiance is for you. Brett is amazing at motivating and helping you achieve your best. Would highly recommend.

Brett has transformed the way I think about training, he has supported me through the last year and continues to do so. Definitely recommend to anyone who needs the accountability and expertise to support their fitness aspirations.

Brett is very knowledgeable, professional and personable. He will help you train correctly and to the level you want to achieve, highly recommended.

Training with Brett has been brilliant, very knowledgeable and clear in his guidance. Very excited to continue my training with him and seeing more results!

I have been working with Brett for the last 6 months - although times have been challenging with several lockdowns. Brett has always found a way to keep the sessions challenging and fun! It’s been fantastic working alongside Brett. He has helped push me, kept me focused and enabled me to feel more confident especially using gym facilities and equipment. Outside & during training Brett is also very knowledgeable and will always give clear guidance. Looking forward to continue training with him and seeing more positive results!

Amazing personal training session with Brett, thank you so much and look forward to next week!! Feeling motivated for the first time ever!

Great PT sessions with Brett, I leave having a clear view on which specific exercises I need to be doing in order to work each muscle group, advice on and off the clock and he is also very easy to get along with, feeling motivated for the first time in a very long time. I thoroughly enjoy my sessions and can’t wait to see what I’m capable of, especially being pushed out of my comfort zone on the assault bike. Would 100% recommend!

Brett is a great trainer. Really enjoy our sessions and he even puts up with me moaning. Really feel I'm getting a proper workout. Already noticing improvements to my strength and stamina. I have decided to buy another block of 16 with him as he pushes me more in the gym than I would push myself. He's really approachable and easy to talk to and makes you feel comfortable.

Great PT, got me into the gym and boosted my confidence to keep going!

I had my very first session with Brett yesterday! What I liked the most was the communication before the session with Brett asking what I wanted to work on. Moving onto the session; Brett demonstrated a plethora of knowledge and skills with his personal training. What I enjoyed the most was the fact that he wasn’t afraid to push me out of my comfort zone; which demonstrated not only did he understand the physical part of the body but also the mental aspect of fitness training! He quickly understood my strengths and areas of improvement; which we will be working on together with the next sessions! Best training session ever experienced!! Thank you Brett.

I’ve just started training with Brett and I’m really enjoying it. Our sessions are always tough because he knows to push me and I really like how much faith he has in me. Highly recommend if you’re a beginner or looking to tweak your current plan.

Brett has been a great motivator in getting me back into weight training and has been really patient and attentive in listening and helping me get my strength and mobility back. Always feel really energised after his workouts and would highly recommend.

An all round good guy, solid trainer, gave me a good programme and got me back to feeling good about exercise again after a few injuries. Tailored workouts to me and helped me keep motivated and accountable.

I have been training with Brett for 3 months now. I was new to going to the gym and was very nervous as I did not know where to start. But Brett has always made me feel motivated and at ease from day one in our sessions. He has given me a good programme so I know exactly what I am working on at the gym on my own, which has really helped me be more confident in the gym. I can already feel and see a change in my strength and ability. He knows what I am capable of doing and when to challenge me that little bit more. I highly recommend him.

I recently started training with Brett, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment I started training with him, I knew I was in good hands. Brett is not only incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in his field, but he is also a great motivator and so lovely. He pushes me to reach my fitness goals while also ensuring that I am working out safely and effectively. His personalised workout plans have helped me see significant progress in a short amount of time. I highly recommend Brett to anyone looking for a dedicated and results-driven personal trainer!!!

I started working with Brett to build my strength in advance of a long distance hiking trail where I'd be carrying up to 20kg up and down lots of hills. The sessions have been brilliant, I definitely felt stronger after our initial block of 10 sessions and it made a big impact on my strength and resilience on the trail. I really enjoy working with Brett, he sets the right pace for me and I never feel out of place in the gym despite it not being my natural environment!

I have recently started training with Brett and I couldn’t be happier!! He is very good at what he does and great at motivating me to push myself through my mental barrier. He has helped me to gain more confidence in the gym and his personalised plans are helping me to reach my goals!! I would definitely recommend Brett to anyone who is looking for a reliable and dedicated personal trainer.

Brett is an outstanding personal trainer. He crafted a customised workout plan that perfectly matched my fitness goals and always made sure I was using the correct form. His sessions are both challenging and motivating, and I've noticed significant improvements in my strength and energy levels. Brett is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his clients' progress. If you're looking for a dedicated trainer who will help you achieve real results, Brett is the one to go to!

Been having sessions with Brett for a while now, and I can honestly say, Brett is absolutely fantastic at what he does. Every session is different, tailored to my needs, and fun. I suffer with lower back problems, but Brett always makes sure what I do is comfortable and safe. I would 100% recommend Brett.

First PT session in nearly 6 months, Brett’s knowledge and professionalism is exceptional and I will definitely be booking again, I feel good after just one session!

I am just at the start of my training journey and Brett is helping me to improve my core. My balance and walking are already improving. Pushes me when he needs to and encourages me when I’m not sure I can do the exercise. Still bloody hate the chin ups though ????

I've been seeing Brett for training sessions for a little while now and I can't thank him enough! I had been lacking motivation for some time and needed someone to guide me in the right direction. From the beginning when I met him he was so chilled and friendly and really knew his stuff - I knew I'd made the right choice. He's tailored sessions around me and even recorded videos of workouts for me to do when I've been away from my home gym! He's always there with great advice and has pushed me out of my comfort zone in a way that I'm challenging myself more and more to get closer to my goals while trying new things all the time to keep it fresh and interesting! If you're looking for a drill sergeant type that will scream and shout at you and reel off tired old clichés then don't call Brett. However if you want a personal trainer who is genuine, supportive and encouraging, who will help you achieve a better, happier YOU; then don't hesitate!!! Would recommend to anyone! Thank you Brett for all you've done and continue to do.

Brett is a highly knowledgeable PT with a technical eye that helped me advance my weightlifting. He listens to his clients and programmes the session to accommodate the goals they are aiming for. He is also a pleasure to be with.

Great trainer. Very knowledgeable and motivating. Pushes to the limit to make sure you get results and not just go through the motions. Highly recommend.

If you want a trainer who will push you just that bit more each time, Brett is the guy for you. I have done his circuit classes for a while and I love the mix of exercises and the pace ensuring I'm never getting bored. His training programmes are also very well tailored to each person. I'm currently doing a 6 week programme designed for me. It pushes me each session and I really feel the burn and see the results. Brett himself is so helpful with answering questions, explaining the exercises and flexible to modify workouts depending on what you can and can't do (i.e. back problems). 10/10 all round from me!!!

Whatever you're wanting to achieve, Brett will take his time to tailor everything you do to ensure you achieve it! No session is ever the same, which makes it really enjoyable! He’s a really great trainer.

Fantastic trainer. Already lost 5% body fat training with him for only a month. Really motivates you and pushes you. Can’t recommend enough!

Top guy! Listens and tailors his programme to challenge me. Flexible to work with. Always there for me via message or face-to-face for chats, not only about fitness and health, but well-being overall. Thanks!

Five stars - Brett pushes you to limits you didn’t know you had and works with you to surpass them. Pure Defiance gets results.

I would 100% recommend Brett at Pure Defiance! I have been training with Brett for over a month now and I am noticeably stronger both mentally and physically and I wouldn't have been able to achieve that without him. He tailors all my sessions to goals we discussed at the beginning and constantly motivates me to exceed and push past the limits I put on myself. Brett is always on hand to give advice on all aspects of fitness and offers support whenever needed. If you are considering PT sessions for whatever your fitness goals are, give Brett a shout!

Been training with Brett for 6 years now and wouldn’t ever go to anyone else! Great tailored workouts and fitness plans catering to all abilities and interests. Brett is great at pushing you beyond your comfort zone and making sure you get the most out of every workout!

At three months postpartum, keen to get back to my previous level of fitness and rediscover my core, I began my fitness journey with Brett. Although often operating on tiny amounts of sleep and battling time pressures of a young family, working with Brett has given me a sense of accountability and helped me to prioritise my own wellbeing and physical fitness. He is very knowledgeable, and able to explain/demonstrate activities clearly. Over the last few months I have made clear progress and have become stronger, as well as developing my cardio fitness. Our challenging sessions are varied in content which keeps them interesting, but also means that I’m achieving so much more than I would alone, as well as learning new skills, like conquering the deadlift! Brett manages to combine being relaxed and patient with an ability to push me to work harder which is great. And we manage to laugh, particularly when things don’t go exactly to plan. I’d happily recommend his services, particularly if you’re just getting back into exercise or wanting to develop your confidence in the gym.

As an on/off gym goer (due to lack of confidence and knowledge) I approached Brett for a trial PT session, which immediately led to booking a block and I am really glad I did. With a training plan ready for every session, you just have to turn up and give it your all, no having to plan workouts or worrying if you are doing the right thing – which is perfect for me. He is great at pushing you further than you think you can go. I come away from each session feeling positive and motivated, I have felt great results and improved my fitness and strength, but also my mindset. Brett makes you feel at ease straight away and makes sessions fun whilst also challenging you to make sure you get the absolute most out of each workout. I would highly recommend.
