“I was a case study for Karen while she was training. It’s really changed how I see things. I’ve always gone with the all or nothing approach and it’s always been about a short term drive to lose weight fast. Karen has helped me to see it as a lifestyle change and that it needs to be sustainable long term, it’s not about today’s weight but about the whole process, she’s helped me see it as a choice which has taken the guilt out of it all.”
“Karen really knows her stuff so she can explain why we are doing certain exercises which helps with motivation. She’s great at working out what will work for someone and what will make working out more fun for them. I’ve never been an exercise fan but I have genuinely enjoyed our workouts and found that Karen can spot exactly where my limits are and when I could work harder!”
“I have been going to Karen for nearly 2 months now and can honestly say I am in the best shape of my life. I feel stronger, fitter and look it as well. She is fun, knowledgeable and is a great motivator and works hard to make sure you get the results you want. I have been using PTs on and off for years but have now found the ‘one'”
“Enjoyed my HIIT style session with Karen this afternoon. Varied movement with continued encouragement all the way. If you want an all body workout with a laugh mixed in, Karen’s your lady.”
“I really enjoyed yesterdays session. I ache everywhere today which is a sign of a good workout. Your instructions were clear and the exercises were fab, a bit of everything. Thanks.”
“Karen is a great trainer, friendly, flexible and creates workouts tailored to you. After not training for a while with lockdown and back issues, working with Karen has got me motivated again and feeling confident with my back. I enjoy my sessions with Karen and always feel like I’ve had a good workout, plus she is always there on the app being supportive as well. Thanks Karen!”
“I have just finished a six week course with Karen and she has been brilliant. I joined at zero fitness and it’s been the kick start I needed. Karen has been so supportive and has tailored the coaching sessions specifically to my needs, I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Karen has an amazing set up with all the right equipment and the coaching app for home/gym workouts is so user friendly and a great help to keep me going when I am doing it alone. She keeps in touch to make sure you’re on track but also understand when some home/work commitments get in the way of working out and sometimes you just can’t always stick to the routine. I honestly cannot recommend Lift Up Fitness enough I am so glad I found her.”
