Under his training I went from being unable to walk to running the best I ever have with no injuries as a result. Gaz is an extremely reliable coach and will put 100% into the goals you have as long as you do the same. My time with Gaz has transformed my running and overall fitness. Can’t recommend him enough!

Fantastic experience: Gaz is the best Strength and conditioning coach I've been around. He's gave me a new perspective on what it should feel like to feel in peak condition for an MMA fight. After a hard 8 week camp I felt better than I ever have with the strength and endurance to match. The best Strength and conditioning coach around.

Fantastic experience: Amazing. Gaz is brilliant at what he does an certainly knows his stuff. Been a ride training with him an getting me to better myself. Really enjoy everything.. Thankyou.

Fantastic experience: Gaz is the most dedicated coach I’ve ever worked with, always putting you through hard but scientific sessions. No bs exercises, everything done for a reason. One of few who actually understand s&c, the gains I got with him were through the roof. Can’t recommend more for s&c or pt’s

Fantastic experience: Best choice of Nutritionist and s&c coach ever. Always making me 100% ready for my fights with a healthy weight cut and strong training. I'd couldn't recommend him more top top top.

Fantastic experience: In professional sports every tiny percentage counts when it comes to getting the edge over your competition. Gaz has the knowledge and experience to tip the scales in your favour with science backed training that gets results. I started working with Gaz about 4 years ago and he made massive changes to my strength, speed, power and mobility that really changed my game. I'd recommend Gaz to all professional athletes looking to get serious in their sport. I honestly didn't think the physical changes to my body were possible until I started working with Gaz. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Gaz is an amazing trainer and coach. Always pushed me in the right areas and helped me exceed my goals and build great confidence in my own abilities. Would highly recommend him to anyone!

Fantastic experience: I have both trained with Gaz at K-Star Muay Thai Academy and 1-2-1 private personal training. Gaz is very committed, determined and knowledgeable ... He doesn’t believe in fads, diets etc as he has all the qualifications to assist you with all your dietary and fitness needs. He will PT at times and locations to suit yourself, albeit at home or the park, his plans are tailored to suit round work and home & he keeps in contact making sure you stay on plan and motivated. He certainly got me up to my fitness level, put me through my paces and never let me give up. Fully recommend Gaz for PT and nutrition.

Fantastic experience: I've trained with Gaz regularly for nearly 3 years. I'm over 50, carrying an injury that needs surgery and I'm not a natural athlete. Gaz has continually pushed me out of my comfort zone. He has changed me from a plodder to a sub 4 marathon runner. He has taken the time and effort to research my injury and found new ways for me to train and work around it, giving me more mobility in 6 months than the NHS did in 2 years. He's current with his education, and genuinely wants his clients to reach their best potential. Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic experience: Gaz is a very good and highly experienced coach who helped me and taught me a lot. I highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: After numerous injuries and a long losing streak I decided to train with Gaz. Not only did he work on fixing my injuries but focused on my appalling technique. He has got me through numerous fight camps, sometimes kicking and screaming and believed in me when no one else did. What Gaz doesn't know about strength and conditioning is not worth knowing. He has a no nonsense approach to training and will always go the extra mile. Not only am I back to winning but I have never felt so prepared physically and mentally. I cant recommend Gaz enough for anyone wanting to improve their fight game strength and conditioning or just get fit.

Fantastic experience: Circuit classes are brilliant you are pushed to work hard all the way through the class from warm up to cool down . Gaz has a unique style of teaching and makes it fun even though it’s a really tough class. He has a huge amount of knowledge and can always offer alternatives or easier/ harder options . You really know you’ve worked and always look forward to the next class .

Fantastic experience: Gaz is a fantastic personal trainer with a no nonsense, fact based approach. I highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: Awesome S&c coach. I usually meet Gaz 2 times a week as apart of my full time mma training. I find each session massively beneficial. I would 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Gaz really cares about your results he is very knowledgeable about exercise and nutrition. I've lost 18 pounds in weight and my overall strength has improved greatly. I was struggling to walk upstairs because of the condition of my knees but with Gaz's advise and support this is no longer the case I can now run up them.

Fantastic experience: Amazing mauy thai classes by gaz has a great deal of knowledge and techniques. Overall great guy

Fantastic experience: Great Thai Boxing coach and Personal Trainer. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Gaz to anyone. He has great knowledge in strength and conditioning, Muay thai and self defense

Fantastic experience: I initially went to Per4mance to get better knowledge of gym equipment and how to correct technique on certain lifts, squats etc. I quickly gained strength and confidence and knew not to mess about as Gaz took it seriously and did not let me slack! Every minute of my hour sessions were planned out to meet my goals and if you can get past his vocabulary, you meet your goals. I went from being slightly overweight and conscious of being in the gym environment to being toned, fit, strong and lifting 80kilos+ on my own. His knowledge on S&C, nutrition and general PT is amazing and gives you a no bull sh*t approach. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Amazing person to train with and amazing knowledge on the fitness needs and goal of individuals. Gaz also makes you feel like family and easy to approach.

Fantastic experience: Gaz’s knowledge is endless across a broad range of topics. He’s someone you can trust with your health and fitness, couldn’t recommend him enough!

Fantastic experience: Working with Gaz has increased my strength, skill and mobility. The sessions are structured and effective - even when I’m not motivated, Gaz will find a way to keep it moving. He’s a great human, straight talking and extremely knowledgeable as a PT.

Fantastic experience: Used Gaz for years to help me get ready for fights and also to reach other fitness goals. He is one of, if not the best trainer in the area for functional training. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Top quality personal training led by the consummate and efficient personal trainer Mr Gaz Richards . He helps his clients get in tip top shape whether it is just to keep a healthy lifestyle or training as a competing sport helping by developing a great exercise regime bit also help come up with a proper dietary regime( As Gaz has studied in nutrition too not just being an excellent personal trainer ) - Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Great trainer, incredibly knowledgeable and uses all the latest evidence based data to back up his methods. My strength and performance had improved dramatically!

Fantastic experience: Gaz is a fantastic trainer. I had him a few years ago when I was training for a fight that I had no hope of winning, with his training and coaching I managed to bag a victory. Not only did he help me physically tailoring sessions around the goal, he also helped me mentally and built my confidence up. After a few years of not doing anything with 0 motivation, I knew they only way I’d get back to training was with Gaz. The goal is different now it’s about being stronger / fitter and losing weight. Also posture correction, which he recognised in the 1st session was an issue. Every session is bespoke to my physical needs and pushes me to achieve things I never thought possible. Might not seem a lot but dead lifting 50kg was a personal high for someone who hadn’t lifted before going back to him. Also his health and nutrition knowledge is exceptional. He is always planning supporting and continually giving me advice. He genuinely cares and wants your to achieve your goals. He’s also quite humorous which makes the session more enjoyable.

Fantastic experience: Gaz was a breath of fresh air when it came to teaching me the basics behind nutrition and weight loss. He explained it all clearly so I understood the principals behind it so I could build my own meals and snacks rather than given a restricted list of things to eat. The accountability was great as I had to send him my weight, step count and meals so it pushed me to stay on track. The training and exercise support was also great and he helped me build resistance and strength. I now feel I have the tools to keep my weight and training on track!

Fantastic experience: Started my strength with Gaz honestly got 10x more then I expected amazing session tailored to all my needs when I was tired but still pushed me beyond my limits.My body transformation was like I had never seen before felt like a different person but what I loved about Gaz most was his humour during the session how friendly he was and he just wants to help you and goes out of his way for you truly for you.Hiss better then and coach plus his knowledge is on another level and also equipment to match it.

Fantastic experience: Gaz is amazing at what he does. He has excellent knowledge about real Strength & Conditioning training, as well heaps of nutritional advice. Speaking from experience, his injury rehab programmes work and on top of all of that, he has a genuine care for each one of his clients. He always gives you 100% Of his attention in every session and everything he teaches is backed up by the science. Gaz is the man to go to if you are serious about reaching your goals!

Fantastic experience: Gaz has changed the way I train completely, I was all about the get big look good,I’m 43 and it’s only now I feel like I really know what I’m doing. Along with the training he’s giving me Gaz has given me plenty of advise on my diet in which his knowledge is incredible, I’ll admit I had a few doubts that I’d be able to change my ways long term but feeling the results and getting compliments from my wife and 17 year old daughter who now wants to change my wardrobe to go with my new look I’m definitely a changed man. From nearly 18 stone to now just over 15 in such a short space of time I’m actually running around with my 5 year old and keeping up. Gaz has now become a friend of the family, his unique way of training and wealth of knowledge has changed everything from our weekly shop as in the food we all eat now, I sleep better crazy I know but true, I’ve got a lot more energy and most importantly I’m happy and walking a little bit taller. 100% not your average PT and will kick your butt when needed, which at first was a lot.

Fantastic experience: Gaz is not your traditional PT, he has a massive range of experience and skills, which he draws on to help his clients achieve their goals, whether it's fitness, weight loss or training for a more specific sporting goal. I loved doing padwork with him, an hour of hardwork flew by and I lost weight and built fitness rapidly. He is such a positive, supportive and encouraging PT, who works hard to keep his knowledge and skills up-to-date. I can't recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: Gaz has a wealth of experience in various respects of fitness incl injury rehab, fight preparation etc He provides you with the tools that you need for your goals and challenges based on experience not just a pre-set routine taught in a classroom as you find with other PTs.

Fantastic experience: Gas’s knowledge of all things S&C, diet and Thai Boxing is top notch. He’s a mean pad holder, has an eye for technique and can put together game plans for fights. What’s more he’s got a cool sense of humour and training is never boring.
