TESTIMONIALS
"Right from the very first session I knew Mark was going to be a top drawer PT. It was pretty clear he'd listened to what I wanted to acheive and responded by developing a comprehensive fitness programme that covered tuition and advice on exercise, nutrition and lifestyle, that helped me achieve my goals. Each training session was designed to gradually improve my fitness - it was tough, but Mark's energy, support and enthusiasm throughout this entire process was a big part in keeping me on course to improve myself. After 6 months, I can honestly say I feel pretty proud of myself. I'm fitter, I feel great and look better. This would not have happened if it wasn't for Mark. If you're serious about getting yourself into shape give him a call."

"In the last few years my son started training at Chi Wai Black Belt Academy and this is where i was introduced to Mark Burrows and fitness.
Since training I feel fitter and my stamina has also improved massively, but even better i have reduced my weight by 15kilos and reduced my waist size by 7-8 inches
I enjoy my training because of the controlled level of exercise and knowing i have the continued support that has enabled my success todate."

Mark Burrows: Professional Personal Trainer
I am a certified Master Personal Trainer and hold a Level 3 Reps UK & European Health & Fitness Association qualification gained at the European Institute of Fitness. I am currently a member of the National Register of Personal Trainers (NRPT) and CRB approved.
I have been fortunate enough to enjoy a healthy and active life in which sport and fitness have played a major part. In my earlier years I participated in many team sports and also competed at National level in both the individual and team events at Biathlon and Nordic Skiing championships. Competing at top level for 4 years I gained vast amounts of knowledge and experience in all aspects of exercise and training along with an understanding of the levels of personal commitment needed for full-time training in an Olympic sport.
Having been an enthusiastic Martial Artist for the best part of 20 years I am proud to be a 3rd Degree Black Belt and Instructor at the Chi Wai Black Belt Academy where for over 10 years I have both instructed all age groups and levels in both martial arts and fitness training but have also helped to develop the Chi Wai style.
My past key management roles along with attendance on many training courses has benefitted my personal development which today results in strong skill sets (mentoring, coaching and effective communication skills for all levels) which I use to best effect in my training.
On a personal level I always strive for continual improvement both for myself and my clients. If you are looking for a professional personal training service that can be tailored to your specific needs and which will help you achieve your goals contact Mark at Active Fitness Solutions.
