Personal Training to an Olympic Standard
Sarah Lindsay trained for three Olympic Games with a team of specialists planning every session. Rich Phillipps spent the same years building the transformation process ROAR still runs on. Together they wrote the method that our world class personal trainers work to every day.
The same assessment, the same progression, the same attention to detail, regardless of your starting point. Programming is built around the individual, the coaching is one to one, and the method behind it never changes. From first-time clients to professional athletes, the standard never drops.

Client TestimonialsThe Process
The Science Behind the ROAR Method
Results are not left to chance. The ROAR Method is a structured personal training system built on comprehensive assessment, precise programming and measurable progression. Every session is recorded. Every result is reviewed. Your personal trainer and specialist nutrition coach work from the same data, with recovery integrated into the process. The objective is clear: significant body transformation, improved health and results you can sustain.
Initial Assessment and Performance profile
Every ROAR programme begins with a comprehensive assessment to establish your baseline. Body composition analysis, blood pressure, grip strength and movement screening provide objective health and performance markers, alongside an evaluation of any training history, nutrition and lifestyle. This data informs your individual programme and provides the benchmark against which progress is measured.
Targeted Nutrition And Meal Planning
Nutrition is fundamental to every ROAR transformation. Your dedicated nutrition coach uses your body composition assessment to calculate individual calorie and macronutrient requirements, creating a structured plan built on nutritional quality and supported by a curated recipe library. Regular progress assessments guide adjustments, while practical education and accountability help you establish habits that sustain your results.
Designing your training blueprint
This is where your transformation takes shape. Your personal trainer designs a progressive strength training programme built around your body, capabilities and goals. Every exercise has a purpose, every session is designed to challenge you, and each phase builds on the last to drive measurable progress.
Training and Progression
Every session is coached one to one. Your personal trainer is with you for every rep, perfecting technique, managing intensity and challenging you beyond where you would go alone. Every set is logged so each session starts where the last one finished, with progressive increases in resistance as your strength and capabilities develop.
Monitor, review and adapt
Progress is measured against your data. Regular body composition assessments and training records show how your body is responding and where further progress can be made. Your trainer and nutrition coach review the findings together, while sleep, lifestyle and recovery are assessed to identify opportunities to optimise performance and progression.
We build a body that lasts
A successful transformation goes beyond appearance. Increasing strength, developing lean muscle and improving physical capacity have lasting benefits for metabolic health, cardiovascular fitness and resilience. Our programmes are designed to achieve significant changes in body composition while building the foundations for long-term health and longevity.
The Nutrition System Behind the Results
Effective personal training demands equally precise nutrition. Every ROAR programme includes a dedicated nutrition coach who establishes your individual calorie and macronutrient targets, with structured meal planning that fits your lifestyle. Regular body composition assessments measure results and inform adjustments to avoid plateaus, while ongoing education and accountability keep you on track.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have anything else on your mind? We’re here to help
Do I need to be fit to start personal training?
Absolutely not! Our trainers work with complete beginners every day. Using our structured training system we’ll start at your current fitness level and progress safely at an appropriate pace.
How often should I see my Roar Fitness personal trainer?
To maximise your potential and achieve standout results, we recommend training with your Roar Fitness personal trainer 3 x per week. During your consultation we’ll work with you to determine the optimal frequency based on your goals, lifestyle and schedule. All Roar Fitness programmes require a minimum commitment of 2 sessions per week to ensure consistent progress and lasting transformation.
What if I have injuries or health conditions?
Our expert trainers have extensive experience working with clients who have a wide range of injuries, health conditions, and physical limitations. Starting with your initial movement analysis session, we will assess your needs and design a safe and effective training programme tailored to your body. Every exercise will be adapted around any movement restrictions, whilst still challenging you to build strength, improve mobility and enhance overall fitness. At Roar we believe limitations don’t have to mean holding back – they just mean training smarter so that you can progress with total confidence.
Do you provide nutrition advice?
Yes. Every ROAR personal training programme includes a dedicated nutrition coach who works alongside your personal trainer. Following your initial body composition assessment, your nutrition coach calculates your individual calorie and macronutrient requirements and develops a structured nutrition plan tailored to your goals and lifestyle.
