  • Nick Age 72 Gradual Improvement in Balance and general fitness

    Laurence is a most inspirational and sensitive trainer. I’m 72 and while not having any particular ailments, I am benefitting greatly through weekly sessions with him. He is gradually building on my regime and, using only easily available and simple aids,  is improving my balance, back and general muscular tone. He senses when it gets too strenuous and changes the focus of exercise. I highly recommend his enthusiastic and encouraging approach.

  • Client Achievement

    “Laurence is a true professional who has great knowledge and   technique.  I had a fall about 8 mths ago which damaged my knee plus I am quite restricted due to arthritis in my joints.  Laurence has found a range of programs and adapted them along the way to get my movement and fitness back.  Laurence is so positive and instills that in his clients. I am now returning to horse riding and cycling would definitely return  to see Laurence in the future if I have a relapse.”

    Laurence has been doing exercises with my 94 and 98 year old parents for over 6 months, the exercises are tailored to their capabilities and are varied to focus on different muscles using a range of equipment that allows chair based exercises which my Mum especially enjoys.
    Laurence sends me short video clips of the exercise session. It’s good to see how Mum and Dad are doing in the exercise sessions.

    After spending a few years not exercising due to looking after my terminally ill sister and Dad I wanted to return to fitness with the help of someone who knows how to gradually build up my strength and stamina. Regular weekly sessions with Laurence has helped to build my confidence, strength, and fitness to help me get back on the road to being me again. He always makes it fun and we have a laugh – good for the stomach muscles and the soul ! Thanks Laurence

    Following a total knee replacement at 79 years old, and on the recommendation of friends with whom Laurence has worked, I asked Laurence for help in my rehabilitation. He has proved an excellent trainer – enthusiastic, but sensitive to the needs and condition of his client, with very good judgement of what exercises are needed and how to fit them to his client’s condition and progress. After just a few weekly sessions I have become generally much fitter and my operated leg much stronger and more flexible. Without Laurence’s advice and supportive encouragement I could not have achieved that on my own. Whilst I still have a way to go in regaining general fitness and knee strength and flexibility, I have every confidence that Laurence will ensure that I attain these goals. I recommend him unreservedly.

    What a find Laurence Sugarman is! My husband is 91 and has had a year from hell and back. He’d just recovered from one trauma when another one hit. But nothing deters the Sugarman. Dealing with panic attacks and building strength in a 91yo are all in a few hours work for this Personal Trainer. The regular, concentrated and enjoyable mini work-outs are personalized to my husband’s needs and capabilities – and its oh so rewarding to see the progress he makes each week. Judith
