Since working with Dan I’ve lost kilos, inches and probably a good few years. I have more confidence and energy now than when I was in my teens; my health’s never been better. Can’t recommend him highly enough.”​

"I am an overweight man in my late 50s. I had struggled to exercise because of painful knees and shoulders, but in August 2013 I started having training sessions with Dan.

 

Dan assessed my abilities, writing up with a programme to accommodate and help manage my problems. Each week I am pleasantly surprised by the variety of exercises he has built in to the session; conditioning, weight training and circuit training are all included. Dan is extremely aware of my past injuries and is careful not to aggravate them.

 

Six months on, my sessions with Dan continue, and most weeks these are supplemented by one or two sessions on my own. My shoulders are comfortable and I can lift reasonable weights; my back and abdomen are much stronger, and I have been able to do squatting movements.

 

This spring I am off to the Dales to try some hill walking (gently to begin with) With his excellent knowledge of anatomy and physiology, coupled with his understanding of exercise mechanics, he is easily able to motivate even the most reluctant of clients - I can be lazy! I plan to continue having training sessions with Dan to build on my current level of achievement.​

Dan is an exceptional trainer, and honestly one of the most approachable and friendly people you could ever meet at the gym or elsewhere. After signing up I was astonished at his level of dedication to his craft, and how capable he is when it comes to motivating people to get in shape.

 

If you're looking to shed a few pounds or work towards any sort of fitness goal I can't recommend him enough!

Dan has trained me over a number of years. He has taught me a solid foundation for strength and conditioning, which has enabled me to progress on the rugby pitch. Now I am able to train with Dan, again, in this excellent personalised studio, I am confident that I will continue to get stronger and fitter as he provides me with a tailor-made program.

 

The research, and extra effort, he employs to make sure that every exercise is worthwhile means that my game (rugby) has been improving every week. Furthermore, he can provide sound reasoning and physiological knowledge for each lift and movement, which shows not only his dedication and professionalism, but instils a sense of confidence in what you are doing. ​

“Dan has really made me look at my relationship with food & been able to give me nutritional advice to fit in with my lifestyle.

 

Working with Dan has made me enjoy exercise & Dan pushes me further than I ever would do on my own. He makes every workout different & enjoyable which makes it fun & makes me want to come back. If it was not for Dan I would have given up. I would recommend him to anyone. He has made a massive difference to my life & my partner's.”​

"I was recommend by a local Osteopath to visit Dan.​ Since I started training with Dan he gave advice on a healthier eating plan and I lost 30lb over a six month period and felt stronger , fitter and more capable to enjoy an active lifestyle.​

 

I found Dan's approach to exercise interesting and motivational each session was different. When I had aches or niggles he would provide solutions using a wide range of equipment.  He always demonstrates fully each exercise outlining its benefits and monitors me throughout the process ensuring I complete the task in the correct way.

 

​Dan has been training clients of all backgrounds for a significant period during which time he has gained a wealth of knowledge and he uses that to customise my experience so that after each session I feel like I’ve had fun, pushed myself and accomplished something positive, making me motivated to continue living healthy and look forward to the next session.​

 

I would thoroughly recommend Apex to anyone looking to get fit in a safe environment and motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle."

"Dan Hadert was recommended to me by my osteopath. I had suffered recurrent back problems after lifting heavy garden rubble approx. 4 years ago. I had to give up squash which was my only exercise.

 

Dan became my personal trainer 6 months ago and organised a 10 session plan to improve my fitness and strengthen my back muscles supporting my spine. This plan also included analysis of my diet and recommendations for healthy change.

 

Now I am a stone lighter, back playing squash and am going skiing in March.”​

“Working with Dan has made me like coming to the gym and my workouts are hard but good and I can see how much I could do at the start and how much I can do now. And I can do much more than I ever thought I could. He is very good at his job and I got on very well with him.

 

I am going to keep coming to the gym as he taught me I could do this for myself. I would put his name forward to anybody that wanted to get fit as he is the best and he has done a lot for me."​

“Dan Has transformed how I workout and taught me more about myself and body than working out alone I would never have known. Without Dan’s help I would still be the same size and dread coming to the gym, but now I am more confident and love working out. "

“When I was recommended Dan I was at my heaviest, had low self-esteem, asthma and was taking antidepressants after hibernating for 6 years. Now after having several block sessions with Dan I am no longer a severe asthmatic, feel positive and have a full time job. Thank you Dan."​

“Within my 8 years as a health and fitness professional, Dan Hadert is undoubtedly one of the most highly skilled proactive and successful personal trainers I have had the pleasure of working with.

 

Since first meeting Dan, he has set up a successful personal training business, becoming second to none with his rapport building, likeability and results. He has tremendous drive and is fully focused on his clients and their goals.

 

By leading a healthy lifestyle, connecting to his client’s experiences with his own, and his continual quest to learn and update his knowledge. Dan has become not only a role model to his clientele but also his fellow fitness professionals. When he is not training a client or himself, you will find him chatting to colleagues or members about training or engrossed in fitness literature.Dan is both an exceptional person and personal trainer."​
