Testimonials
"As a busy medic needing to confidently refer my patients only to knowledgeable, well qualified and experienced people, my discovery of Alan Gordon was a very fortunate circumstance. For many years I have always been particularly concerned about the levels of technical training and knowledge that personal trainers possess and have serious reservations about delivering anyone in my care, into the hands of anybody less than a proven expert. Being made aware of Alan's personal training by a colleague in Henley was a fortuitous recommendation and his advanced levels have for me, defined what an exercise and nutritional expert should be. As well as attending to injury referrals from my practice, he has also helped patients with obesity and specific fitness issues and full credit to him; because each and every time he fulfilled my expectations splendidly. Without any hesitation, I would recommend him as a personal trainer to anyone who is seeking realistically expert attention and advice in matters of exercise, injury and nutrition and it comes as no surprise to me, that The Nuffield Hospital Trust, recommend only him." Dr Hugh Weldon, Oxford.
"I have worked with Alan Gordon in the clinical management of patients with orthopaedic and sports related injuries. He is a highly knowledgeable personal trainer, very skilled and adept in many aspects of personal training, including rehabilitation after Injury, Nutrition and Exercise Biomechanics. Patients have always found Alan's close attention to detail, his depth of knowledge and caring/ encouraging attitude highly reassuring. His personal training has helped a great many people with complex injuries and problems, regain their confidence and maximum physical function." Professor Sallie Lamb, Oxford.
Equipment I Use:
Numerous, but as Alan always goes to a client's home or chosen venue, his very advanced knowledge in Exercise Biomechanics/Human Movement makes lots of equipment totally unecessary.
