I came to train in this program so I can get the extra edge against my opponents, and the specialist training helped me do exactly that. After a few sessions I noticed an increase in my ability; I became stronger, faster and lasted longer on the pitch. I started scoring more goals and made many chances for my team.

Gareth really helped my progress as a young aspiring scholar at Charlton Athletic. Teaching me the lifting techniques for power and strength at a young age went hand-in-hand with my football training regime. His guidance has without doubt helped me to develop into an overall better athlete over the past few years.

Gareth Pritchard has been a fantastic fitness coach for my 14 year old son. He was introduced to us from friends whose son also trains with Gareth. At the time my son really needed a push and something to take him to the next step to help improve his football fitness and skills.
Over the last 6-8 months I’ve seen a great improvement in my son’s overall fitness and attitude toward his training. Gareth has not only trained my son to a very high standard but has also helped him to understand how to get the best out of certain parts of the body and how to condition the body.
For those of you who have teenagers will understand how difficult it can be to keep them focused on one thing, when it comes to training with Gareth my son is ready, week in and week out. Since training with Gareth, my son has had trials for numerous football academies. I would most definitely recommend Gareth Pritchard if you are looking for a fitness coach!!

I have had the pleasure of working with Gareth for a number of years now, both at our respective pro clubs and outside interests. I have to say that working alongside such a competent professional with such a great enthusiasm has been a breath of fresh air. He is hands down the best in the business at what he does and I doubt you will come across anyone who ticks the boxes he does.

Gareth was keen to learn the objectives and capabilities of the group whilst devising a manageable but enjoyable programme. His enthusiasm and people skills gave the group a really positive outlook.

I have used Gareth to plan, coordinate and implement pre-season for several years now and the results have spoken for themselves. Our team starts the season notably fitter and more prepared for the campaign. Even our older players are fitter than our opponents’ younger players. Thank you Gareth and good luck with Strength in Sport, I may have to join in this year!

Have known Gareth from the training grounds, in the changing rooms, and on sports pitches for many, many years and never grow tired of his infectious enthusiasm. The effort he puts into his work and the pride he takes from the results achieved is contagious throughout the teams and individuals he works with, breeding acute awareness of the age-old adage; you get out of it what you put in. Perhaps most important of all, while working everyone towards optimal levels of conditioning, he does so with a smile on his face and a clear love of sport and competition.
