Nicky Cull

Over 30 years' personal training experience

When The Pulse opened, my intention was to encourage the older generations to use and enjoy the gym along with all the other facilities offered here at The Pulse. My passion is improving people’s lives through exercise, enabling them to have a fuller life outside the gym.

I specialise in cardiac rehab and cancer recovery, both pre- and post-remission, and weight loss and nutrition. I like to concentrate on balance and strength in my sessions, as I feel these are very important areas. Personal training is one of the most rewarding jobs on the planet, and I love seeing my clients achieve more than they ever thought possible!

Geraldine Jones

Level 3 Personal Training, GP Referral Level 3

I bring the experiences of supporting my family to develop healthy lifestyles and my own journey through high level competitive rowing (and managing a few injuries along the way) to my work as a personal trainer. Sport and exercise has always been my passion and one of my great delights comes from helping others reach their health, wellbeing, fitness or performance goals. It is fantastic to see people achieving things they previously thought weren’t possible.

I’m especially interested in helping older age groups – it’s never too late to begin your journey or move things up a level and reap the benefits! 
 

Jonny Marks

Personal Trainer Level 3, GP Referral Level 3, Mental Health Exercise Specialist Level 4

I have a huge passion for sports performance and events that challenge individuals and push them beyond boundaries that they thought they'd never reach. For me, keeping yourself fit and training up for physical goals is what keeps life fun and exciting. 

In 2018 I seriously injured my leg which led me to require surgery. I am currently on my own specific rehabilitation programme, which is proving long and difficult at times, but it has provided me a great understanding of what people go through with injuries and the various barriers to exercise.
 

Ross Bowden

From a young age, I’ve had a passion for all sports. I was very much an all-rounder. I represented school, college and University in football, hockey, cricket and a little rugby. I graduated from University of Wolverhampton in 2003 in Sport Studies, where I learnt and practiced a great deal in regards to sport, health and fitness.

Areas of interest:
Weight loss/weight management, muscle toning, endurance and functional fitness
 

Nicky Grant

Level 2 Fitness Instructor, Level 3 Personal Trainer, Kettle bell, Suspension training, Flexi band, Level 2 swimming teacher and assistant Athletics Coach

From a young age, I had a love for dancing & danced for a company in my late teens. As I got older, my interest turned to overall fitness.  After having my beautiful children,  I put on a considerable amount of weight which effected my health negatively.  Whilst on my own weight loss journey, it became apparent that I loved helping people not only to lose weight but to get back into fitness and to achieve their weight loss goals.  I love to see peoples reaction’s when they achieve their own personal goals.  I believe that exercise should be fun & enjoyable and will provide you with encouragement throughout your journey to keep you motivated. 

I look forward to training with you.
