Carl Garton
Fitness has always been part of my life, my family competed at Olympic level in canoeing and national level in cycling, so with all these influences around me i started early and the bug has stayed with me.
Through competitive canoeing, kung fu, body building and later on kickboxing, I have always loved the discipline required to be good at your chosen sport. Joining the Royal Marines taught me a lot of valuable life skills and gave me the strength of mind to pursue my goals. But it wasn’t until I qualified (at the top of my class) with Premier Training in 2001 to become a Personal Trainer and Sports Therapist, that I realised I had found my vocation in life. I train people with the same passion and determination as I train myself, giving them my undivided attention to get them the results they want. There are no magic answers or gadgets that will give you health & vitality; it comes from old-fashioned hard work, sweat and good nutrition.
2 years ago I discovered Kettlebell’s, and was amazed at what a powerfully intensive and thorough workout they give you. I now use Kettlebell Training extensively with clients, making them leaner, fitter and stronger than they have ever been in their lives.
I now run The Fit Farm Ltd, where we offer Corporate Health & Wellness and Stress Management to the corporate sector, and Personal Training and Sports Massage Therapy to individuals.
