Meet Ivan Young - Advanced Personal Trainer Nutritionist & Injury Rehab Specialist
Hi, I’m Ivan. I hold a Level 4 Personal Training qualification – the highest currently available in the UK – recognising advanced expertise in areas such as medical conditions, rehabilitation and nutrition coaching. Fewer than 1 in 100 trainers reach this level, and my goal is to use that knowledge to help you transform your health with confidence.
Why clients choose me:
- Level 4 PT and Nutrition Coach (top 1% of UK trainers)
- Personal experience reversing type 2 diabetes, losing 25 kg and rebuilding after a major cardiac event and multiple surgeries.
- Specialist in complex medical cases referred by GPs.
My Fitness Journey
After a successful 20-year career as a finance director in the City, a major cardiac incident led me to completely rethink my life and pursue a career in fitness. Over the past four years, I have reversed type 2 diabetes, lost 25 kg, and improved my muscle mass, endurance, strength, flexibility, and balance through structured training and nutrition coaching. This journey fuels my passion for helping others – whether younger or older, new to the gym or experienced, including those needing GP exercise referral, injury rehabilitation, or tailored nutrition coaching. Having overcome my own gym anxiety, I understand how intimidating the gym can feel, and I focus on making every client feel comfortable, informed, and confident in the training environment.
