John - CYG Sponsored Athlete

I am Mr John Martin age 40

I have had the privilege of knowing & training with Steven for a long time and without his support & helping me break through my barrier's in the beginning of my strength journey he has supported me in multiple types of sports ( Boxing/ MMA / OCR/ Weight lifting to name a few

I possibly would not be competing at the level I am & continue to do so without his & family support in my preferred sport of Strongman & I would recommend him to anyone who is just starting out training /looking to get fit or wanting to build confidence in a gym setting / environment

Stephen

When I met Steven, I had been working out in my home gym not really having a clue what I was doing.

Being an arthritis sufferer and having a bit of gym anxiety, left me with no confidence in my ability.

After some chats through the socials I signed up to Stevens online training which gave me a proper routine and created a structure to my workouts. Slowly but surely I started to gain confidence in myself again. Then when Steven opened CYG Gym in Carluke things went from strength to strength. I have now found a gym where everyone is friendly and happy to help if needed. Also, my new workout plan has me doing exercises I never thought I could ever achieve.

An excellent team to work with!

I’ve been coached by Steven at CYG for just under a year now and since starting my confidence in the gym attempting new lifts has improved significantly. My numbers have went way up and this is down to the attention to detail that Steven has given me through my time under his wing. Coaching me through my first couple of strongman competitions and supporting me through all the issues in regards to training. Steven’s approach to training is next to none, he motivates his clients but also listens to their needs and adapts where appropriate to get the best out of his clients. I am looking forward to see where we go next with the next comp prep getting ready to begin.

I started going to Steven's fitness classes after many years of inactivity. I was nervous as it was something I had never done before and I can be shy when I first meet people. I felt welcomed straight away and the classes are good fun/exercise.

I decided to take weekly 1-on-1 sessions as well which have helped massively. I find Steven easy to get along with and I feel like he genuinely cares about his clients.

After about 6 months (and counting) I am now physically much stronger and feeling more confident.

I have been coached by Steven for around 6 months and I have also done the c.y.g fitness classes and became a member of the new gym in this time I have seen improvements in my confidence, body shape, fitness and the weights I lift.

I would recommend C.Y.G to anyone who is looking to join a new gym or take part in a fitness class Steven has always been there to support me through my strength and fitness journey.

Joined the fitness class in Carluke 3 weeks ago now and loving it

Steven is a great coach,keeps the classes varied and interesting,pushes you to work hard and encourages you to push yourself but if there's something you can't manage he will amend the exercise to suit your needs

lovely friendly wee class to get into,having not done exercise for a while,having type 1 diabetes and my age,i was dubious but I love every class and look forward to the next 1,knowing I am doing something for me and looking after my health as well,while having fun makes it all worthwhile

I highly recommend the weekly classes and also feel he would be a great 1-1 coach

I have been trying to get fit lose weight and get healthier, for a few years now. I joined up with Steven 9 weeks ago, and I can honestly say it has been a great decision.
