"I can't thank Barry enough for all his support, encouragement and most of all patience. A year ago I could barely keep up with doing the simplest of gym classes, let alone think of doing the '8 mile Grim Challenge' that I managed do in well under 2hrs in December '08. I am not a natural runner by any means but Barry creates such an enthusiastic and supportive atmosphere in all his classes, it was hard for me not to even try and that is all that matters to him. I was even sad when I missed a class. I would recommend VisionFit to anyone - I actually do anyway because my fitness is not just a vision anymore, it's a reality!! Not to mention my new figure! And I can now wear my skinny jeans with a lot of pride LOL!! So to summarise:
Body loving
Achieving
Respect for self
Respect for others
Yes you can!

"I have been training with Barry for about two years now. I have taken part in various group training sessions led by Barry (running club and outdoor circuits) and have also had several one-to-one personal training sessions. I enjoy training with Barry because he pushes me to test my limits and achieve the best I can. He also likes a good laugh, which makes hard sessions that much more achievable. I've lost 1/2 a stone in a matter of months, feel the fittest I've ever been and regularly take part in running races. Although I may have achieved these things alone, it's much easier when someone else is encouraging you!"

"Uphill, downhill and back again......
My first week joining up with VisionFit was a nightmare: cold, dark and a fair amount of time running uphill. The second week, it got easier but in the third week the game had been stepped up. By the fourth week I think my legs were falling off. But after three months of training with our instructor, Barry, I can sense a marked improvement in my fitness. The VisionFit experience has been inspiring, challenging and a bloody good laugh – well when you’ve caught your breath! Barry's no-nonsense approach to training means this man will give you a run for your money and his knowledge is extensive so that if there are any recurring injuries he knows how to handle them. I'm impressed with the enthusiasm – yes even on a cold winter's night we all still find enough energy to battle our way through the sessions. Each week there are different challenges set so there is no chance of boredom or complacency plus there is encouragement to enter competitions, such as half marathons and the Grim (which I’ve heard is tough but I’ve yet to pluck up the courage for that!). It’s not all work, work, work though, and I’ve met some great friends exchanging tips and advice and the occasional drink in the pub. It is worth it and it’s a nice way to get off that gym treadmill." Clare Drake
"I hated running, hated it at school and never ran as part of a workout. But after some personal training from Barry he persuaded me to try his Running Club. I hated it!!! But I persevered and now I have completed 2 x 10km runs this year and regularly attend Thursday night Running Club. I now quite miss it if I cant make it!! Whatever your fitness levels, Barry will keep you involved so you are pushed if you are good, but are not left out or feel like you are hindering the better ones if you are not so good. You should come along and you will get to enjoy the wonder of Bus Stop Sprints and the Old Lodge Lane One Mile (OLLOM) in all sorts of weather. Barry also arranges nights out (with some of the more socially superior members!!!) and these are quite a laugh. You should give it a try....see you there!!!!!"

"My experience with VisionFit has been a life changing one!
I have often been told by many people that "if I was any more laid back I would be horizontal". However since my personal training sessions with Barry I have become what I can only describe as "born again".
Barry is someone with great wisdom and experience. He is a 100% professional at all times, yet has a genuine desire to make a person achieve their personal goals and he always has an encouraging word to say (after a hard workout).
I have noticed major differences in myself, and feel the best I have felt in years! In my first ten sessions, I have lost 2kgs in weight.
I totally feel that people of all ages and fitness levels would benefit greatly from being connected to VisionFit and Barry. You will not be disappointed, believe me!"
