I Listen Before I Plan
Your goals, experience, confidence and lifestyle all influence how your coaching should work. I take time to understand these before deciding what approach is right for you.
About Iwan Gregory
Iwan is a Welsh-speaking personal trainer and online fitness coach from Talysarn, Gwynedd, now based in Bangor. His approach combines professional qualifications with first-hand experience of building confidence, improving training and learning from the mistakes that often hold beginners back.
Why I Chose to Coach Differently
Outside of coaching, I value time outdoors, staying active and spending time with the people closest to me. I understand that fitness has to fit around real life, responsibilities and changing circumstances.
I want every client to feel comfortable asking questions, being honest about setbacks and knowing they are working with someone who genuinely cares about their progress
I want every client to feel understood, supported and clear about what they are working towards. My role is not simply to provide a plan—it is to help you apply it consistently, overcome setbacks and keep moving forward.
Your goals, experience, confidence and lifestyle all influence how your coaching should work. I take time to understand these before deciding what approach is right for you.
You will receive straightforward feedback, realistic expectations and practical guidance without unnecessary complexity or confusing fitness language.
Your coaching should change as your strength, confidence, circumstances and goals develop. I review progress regularly and adjust the approach when needed.
No generic approach • No judgement • Coaching built around you
Iwan’s Own Journey
Iwan began training in summer 2022 at 68 kg and an estimated body-fat level of around 16%. Across the following four years, he built his bodyweight to 90 kg at approximately 14% body fat, while developing substantially greater strength, training knowledge and practical experience.
The annual values are visual milestones used to show the progressively slower rate of gain after the first year.
Iwan gained approximately 10 kg during his first year after ending frequent drinking, eating enough to support training, following a structured programme and using creatine. Progress then slowed year by year, with each additional gain requiring more precise training, nutrition, recovery and patience.
Iwan’s progression reflects his own starting point, genetics, training consistency, nutrition and circumstances. Individual results and timeframes will vary.
