Personal Training in Tonbridge
World-champion coaches. One-to-one at our gym.Programming built around what you actually need.
Jason Swalwell and Helen Redhead are both world champion powerlifters who now coach full time. Personal training sessions are one-to-one, held at our strength gym in Tonbridge, and built around what you actually need rather than a generic programme.
Between them they cover a wide range of areas: strength and powerlifting, sports nutrition, injury rehabilitation, weight loss, and working with older adults. If you have a specific goal or something you are working around, that is where the conversation starts.
Sessions are available on their own or alongside gym access. Book a viewing to check availability and talk through what you're looking for.

The Gym
In-person sessions run on the gym floor at Sportive Tricks in Tonbridge — where Jason and Helen coach full time. You train with the same kit members use: monolift, belt squat, reverse hyper, competition platforms, and specialty bars chosen for real sessions, not brochure shots. Most of it you won’t find elsewhere in Kent.
This isn’t a quiet corner off a busy gym floor. The rack is yours when you need it, there’s space to warm up and work through a full session, and the coaches on the floor know how to programme around injury, time away, or whatever you’re working with.

Your Coaches
Head Coach
Jason Swalwell
My coaching style is based around improving technique. Technique is everything as far as I am concerned, the ability to execute a movement pattern or skill under extreme pressure is the most important skill you can have at any level of sport.

Coach
Helen Redhead
I am a people person and this is reflected in my coaching style. Whilst always striving for good technique and progression, I am aware of individual barriers and strengths. I work with and around these.

Frequently Asked Questions
I feel self conscious and I am nervous about going in the gym. How would it be different with you?
Our gym is a 1-2-1 space which only you and your coach are in at any one time. We value all our clients and strive to create a completely non judgemental and supportive environment.
What type of exercises would I be doing during sessions with you?
We tailor all our sessions to your individual abilities and specific goals. We have a well equipped gym that can cater to strength work, muscle gain, cardio and conditioning. Often a combination of these styles of training are used. Other times it is appropriate to focus more on one type of training which is necessary to get you to where you want to be.
I am already a member of a gym. Would you give me sessions to do by myself there?
We offer programs to do outside of your sessions with us in order to help you progress more quickly. We encourage you to feedback to us about how these sessions are going and to think of them as a continuation of your sessions with us.
Can I have written copies of my sessions?
We give all clients the use of our app. In here you will find your programs and sessions in an easily accessible format.
I have health issues/injuries. Am I able to train with you?
Yes. Once you are cleared by your health practitioner to exercise, we will adapt your training around your needs and abilities. The gym is accessible by a lift if necessary and has a free car park directly outside, making it suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
I am aged over 60, is it too late for me to start?
It’s never to late. We train all ages of clients and have a number who are 80 plus!
SEE WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT HELEN AND JASON
After a serious ankle operation I worked with Jason in order to get me exercising fully again. His attention to detail is amazing, I cannot recommend him highly enough.
I worked with Jason primarily on my speed and agilty, his calmness and patience really helped as I was finding it difficult at first. I am happy to say over the course of 12 weeks all my test scores increased including 0.5 m/s improvement of my sprint!!
I have been training with Jason for an average of two sessions a week, and I have nothing but positive things to say. I came to Jason after suffering some quite serious skeletal and muscular injuries that had altered my entire lifestyle and career.Due to my various health problems, I needed someone who had more to offer than your average PT. I needed someone who was highly qualified and had specific experiences in rehabilitative training and ‘Strength and conditioning’; Jason ticked all of these boxes and more.
Helen is a great personal trainer, she makes you feel very comfortable whatever your abilities are. She praises and motivates you to give your best. She adapts and changes the weekly plan regularly and she cares about the progress you make by giving regular feedback. She is also very flexible and understanding. I have been exercising with Helen for the past three months and I do recommend her as a personal trainer.
Patient. Understanding of personal circumstances while not letting me get away with excuses. Tailors the programme to my individual needs and schedule while keeping both short and long term goals in mind. the progress I have made has been astounding but also I feel I have gained a trusted friend who I can talk to also and that trust in him is what makes training with him so unique from other places.
We have been working with Helen for about a month now. Helen is great, she makes each session interesting, challenging and pushes us to improve.
Absolutely Brilliant place with a wonderful coach - highly recommended
Amazing coach. doesn’t just write a program, but builds it to work around my injuries & limitations. Attention to detail is second to none.
I’ve worked with Helen for 6 weeks. She fashions the activities to suit my limitations and I notice the benefits in posture, gait and flexibility
Helen has built not only my fitness but also my confidence in the time she has trained me. Sessions are bespoke to my goals, and adapted with consideration to injury or issues I have had previously. workouts are varied enough to keep it interesting and it’s wonderful to see my progress from the sessions!. I’ve learned a lot about good form, to prevent further injury and her knowledge, detailed approach, and passion is fantastic. Thank you!
I've been working PTs for many years and got bored with the 'Here is the routine, and I'll count the reps approach of the PT'. With Jason and Helen they have totally changed my approach, motivation and results with my training. They use a 'technique first' approach - get that right and the results will come. They are also great people who care about their clients, supportive, and you can have a laugh with.
I've been training with Jason for over a year now and it's testament to his approach that I look forward to my twice weekly sessions. I've built up strength and confidence, never being pushed too far too fast but always being challenged. It's been amazing to have a bespoke programme tailored for me. Both Jason and Helen are incredibly knowledgeable and create a fun and supportive environment (along with Penny the miniature schnauzer!).
