- Client testimonials
“I was recommended Tim by another running coach, which immediately said a lot about the quality of service Tim offers... the thing I have really valued from the 6 months I have been working with Tim is his genuine desire to educate and empower. There is no attempt to create a cycle of dependecy on his services, but rather a razor sharp focus on tooling me up for the long term to be able to achieve the goals and ambitions I set for myself. It is liberating, fulfilling and most importantly laced with absolute integrity. In the personal training space, that can be hard to find. Tim understands the nuances of the sport of running and has a genuine ability to balance the science with the art. Finally, Tim has remained professional and approachable at all times. I could not recommend Tim and his team any more. 11 out of 10!”
“I first contacted Tim towards the end of 2025 when I was looking for a personal trainer that had experience with elderly clients, and could work with my 80 year old mother. After training with Tim for a few months there has been significant improvements in her functional strength and movements. She has gotten stronger, and feels more steady and confident on her feet. Tim has a lot of knowledge and his expertise is impressive. He has a great ability to connect with people, encourage them, while also gauging their ability in order to adjust exercises and make progress at a comfortable pace. It has been very easy to work with Tim and Deb, they are highly professional, very approachable and communicative. I would highly recommend Extension Fitness.”
“I attended a running workshop with Tim and was given feedback on my form, along with a few simple things to focus on. Was mindful of a couple of variables during my next parkrun and shaved a few minutes off my recent average time. Free speed!”
