Hi, I’m Andy Wakem, a personal trainer in Banstead, Surrey where I live with my wife, son and two daughters.

​

I am a level three personal trainer and have been working for over 10 years in private and corporate gym facilities and for the last 5 years out of my own private gym. I have built a space where clients of all ages and abilities feel supported and motivated to achieve their goals. My journey in fitness includes 10 years of service in the Royal Marines, where I developed a strong foundation in discipline, focus and teamwork – qualities I bring to my work today.

As someone who regularly weight trains and enjoys playing competitive rugby, I live a lifestyle that I try to encourage others to engage with. But for me fitness isn’t just about exercise and building strength, it’s about boosting confidence, relieving stress and enhancing your overall quality of life. I believe that nutrition is equally as important for achieving a healthy lifestyle and not overlooking the importance exercise brings to your mental wellbeing.

Growing up in Cornwall, I left home at 16 and joined the Royal Marines where I spent 10 years travelling the world, including tours of Iraq and Afghanistan whilst also completing Jungle training and multiple arctic warfare packages in Norway. Since leaving the Military my passion for fitness has continued through my personal training career.

My mission is to inspire and motivate you to achieve your own specific fitness goals as well as incorporating healthy lifestyle choices into your daily routine.
