About Spencer

Hello, my name is Spencer; Welcome to my little landing page, a space where I want to help YOU make some positive lifestyle changes.  

 

Before making this website, I was a professional rugby player in my native South Africa for ten years and have been Personal Training Clients for over twelve years in London. I love my job, and the time is right for me as the fitness industry landscape changes to delve into online coaching to help more people like you. 

 

I have explored different ways and methods of training, but the industry is saturated with misinformation. It doesn’t have to be, so I want to keep things simple. I want to get you to do something you will want to keep doing and then get better at doing it. 

 

I have worked with post and prenatal mothers; young working professionals, and I’ve even got some clients to turn away from their office jobs and join the working world of fitness. But all of these clients had one thing in common – they didn’t have much spare time, so their time to train was precious, and that’s where I come in. I make it simple. I cut out the misconceptions and hold you accountable because I want you to achieve.  

 

Welcome to Coactive Personal Training; it’s a pleasure to meet you.

Personal Training - What I do

I create functional training programmes for busy people – It’s simple! Functional, realistic fitness programs that change you. My nutrition plans are practical, whilst my programme design is easy to understand. I keep it simple, doable and tailored to suit your lifestyle. 

This is how it works for Online Training: You decide on a plan that suits you. You first fill out the questionnaire. We then have a chat via video to assess the best way forward for you. I then compile your bespoke plan based on your lifestyle, and from there, we embark on creating the new, improved version of you. If you are not sure, you can fill out the questionnaire and let me get back to you. I will contact you as soon as possible, and we can discuss the way forward. You will have my support via email and video chats at set times and feel empowered every step. 

I work out of South West London and have private clients I travel to, depending on location and times. For 1 to 1 training and boot camps or any other face-to-face training, please contact me directly through my email at [email protected], and I will get back to you and arrange times and dates. We can organise all other boot camps and group sessions via email.

Not at all! Whether you’re a seasoned gym rat or taking your first fitness steps, I tailor programmes to your individual level and goals.

We’ll chat about your goals, medical history, and fitness experience. Then, we’ll do a movement assessment to design a personalised plan that’s safe and effective.

It depends on your goals and lifestyle. We can discuss options from weekly sessions to occasional check-ins to guide your independent training.

You can contact me directly through the website contact form, email, or phone. I’m always happy to chat and answer any questions you might have.

Testimonials

As someone who works away a lot, I needed a trainer who could not only get the best out of me in person but also motivate, update and adapt programmes ‘remotely’. Spencer’s outstanding communication and commitment make it possible for me to stay fit, even if I can’t get to the gym in person for a few weeks.

Over the years, Spencer has trained me through life events such as weddings and pregnancy. The variety of these exercises, his attitude towards fitness and his abundant knowledge keep me coming back. He has improved my life, and I can’t recommend him enough. 
Emma

Thanks to Spencer, I lost weight and progressed in strength and shape. He can help you build tailor-made diets that will improve your lifestyle choices. He has also been a great support when I wanted to quit smoking. I couldn't ask for a better PT.
Marco

I no longer feel nervous stepping into the gym for a solo workout, and Spencer has given me the confidence to keep progressing and trying new activities and exercises. He has changed my attitude towards fitness. Call him today; it will be worth it!

Prompt to listen, Spence understood my needs before I expressed them or knew I had them and helped me improve “what my mama gave me”. I have trained with him for four years and could not recommend any better trainer/person.

Whether you can train one session a week or two or three, Spencer will ensure your sessions are designed to get the most for you – he thinks ahead and plans to get you what you want.

I was always on a ‘diet’ and believed that diet and exercise had to be complicated to work. Now, I don’t even recognise that person anymore. Spenny has supported, challenged and educated me. I can honestly say he has changed my life and been an inspiration!
Samo

If you want to spend your PT session doing three sets of 10 reps of each exercise, you’re better off with someone else.  If you want to do cool and creative stuff tailored to the capabilities that are way better for you and more effective, then Spencer is your man.
Braden
London
Before training with Spencer, I struggled with my weight and confidence. Eight months in, we're still training, and I have reached the goals I set out for myself and so much more. I feel and look more muscular, confident, and better in myself."
Elliot
London
Thanks to the varied and tailored workouts and not to mention my library of exercises Spencer has provided, I can genuinely say that I have achieved fitness levels and aesthetics I would not have achieved on my own. But beyond the fitness benefits, Spencer is a friend, and I look forward to our weekly hour-long chats, where I usually like to complain about how I can’t do another set. But Spencer never lets me quit! Thanks, Spencer, you’re the best!
