About Garrett Hughes

Hi, I'm Garrett.
Real training.
Real results.
Specialising in the over 50s.

Garrett Hughes Personal Trainer & Nutrition Coach is a personal training service built on one simple belief: the best plan is the one built for you. Not a generic programme downloaded from the internet. Not the same sessions everyone else is doing. Yours. Specific to your goals, your body, your life.

Whether you want to lose weight, build strength, move better, or simply feel good in yourself we'll build a plan around what you actually want to achieve, and I'll be with you every step of the way.

Specialist in the over 50s

Programmes designed specifically for where you are right now your body, your goals, your life stage. It's never too late to get stronger.

Training + nutrition together

Most trainers focus on the gym. We cover both sides because what you eat is half the equation.

Personal. Always.

You'll always be dealing with me directly not an app, not an assistant. Real coaching, real accountability.

Results guaranteed

Follow the plan and you will see results. Simple as that.

What we do

Your programme,
built from scratch.

Every programme is structured around proven training principles push, pull, legs, and everything in between adapted specifically for you. No guesswork. No wasted sessions.

01
💪

Push sessions

Chest, shoulders, triceps. We build strength and shape through compound and isolation movements, scaled to your current level and progressed as you improve. Every rep has a purpose.

Upper body strength
02

Pull sessions

Back, biceps, rear delts. The muscles most people neglect. A strong back improves posture, reduces injury risk, and creates the balanced physique that looks and feels great.

Back & posture
03
🦵

Leg sessions

Quads, hamstrings, glutes, calves. Your biggest muscle group, your biggest opportunity. Leg training drives overall strength, metabolism, and functional movement for everyday life.

Lower body power

Nutrition integration

Your food plan works hand in hand with your training programme. We look at fuelling around sessions, daily protein targets, and sustainable habits not crash diets.

Enjoy the process

Always in your corner

Your plan.
Genuinely
bespoke.

A lot of trainers say bespoke. What they mean is they've swapped out a few exercises from last week's template. That's not what we do here.

Specialising in the over 50s, every programme is built from the ground up around your goals, your current fitness level, any injuries or limitations, and what you actually enjoy doing. Bodies change as we age, and your plan should reflect that.

You'll understand why every exercise is in your programme, what it's doing for your body, and how it connects to your goal. Knowledge is part of the service.

1

Initial consultation

We sit down, talk through your goals, your history, your lifestyle, and what success looks like for you.

2

Your programme is built

A full training and nutrition plan, written specifically for you. Not a template. Yours.

3

We get to work

In-person sessions plus a structured plan to follow independently between sessions. You're never in the dark.

4

Progress & evolve

Regular check-ins, plan updates, and ongoing accountability. The plan grows as you grow.

5

Results guaranteed

Follow the plan and you will see results. That's the promise.

Nutrition

Let's talk food.
(Don't panic.)

Most people know they should eat better. The problem isn't information it's too much of it. Conflicting advice, fad diets, and endless content online make something that should be simple feel completely overwhelming.

Nutrition is built into everything we do. Not as a bolt-on extra as a core part of how you get results.

Protein first

The single habit that drives fat loss, muscle building, and recovery more than anything else.

No banned foods

Sustainable eating beats any two-week overhaul. We work with your life, not against it.

Fuel your training

What you eat around sessions matters. We'll get this right without making it complicated.

Consistency wins

A decent plan followed consistently will always beat a perfect plan followed for a fortnight.

Simple principles.
Real impact.

I'm not going to hand you a meal plan that bans bread and makes you weigh your rice. What I will do is help you understand how food actually works so that over time, making good choices just becomes second nature.

We start simple and build from there. No guilt, no obsessing over every meal. Just practical knowledge that supports everything we're doing in your training.

What to expect.

  • A straightforward look at how you're currently eating no judgment
  • Easy wins we can put in place straight away
  • A nutrition approach tailored to your training programme
  • Guidance on fuelling for training days, rest days, and real life
  • Gradual, sustainable progress not a two-week overhaul
  • Ongoing adjustments as your training and goals evolve
