Set Yourself Up For Life

"I reached out to Pyry about many years ago when my health was at my lowest.

I was working long hours, I wasn't doing any movement or activity and consuming convenience food so I could quickly go back to working. I was getting less than 5 hours of sleep each night, and by 2 PM in the afternoon, I would be fighting the afternoon mental fog. After years and years of this behaviour, I had adopted some really unhelpful health habits.

Pyry has a very structured and simple approach to health management and understands the connection between great health and great cognitive performance - important in work and business.

Pyry role models consistency and accountability, which is a useful reference point to tap into as a client. He also is great at driving consistency and accountability when it comes to adopting new useful habits.

I have been working with Pyry for nearly 5 years now and would highly recommend him for men and women who want to take their health, career and business to the next level."

 "I highly recommend Pyry.

Words cannot adequately describe the significance of his impact on my health and fitness.

He has consistently gone above and beyond to tailor his advice to my personal circumstances.

He has helped to change my perspective and become an 'optimised human' by enhancing my approach with several important items which are easy to overlook - such as breathing techniques, posture, sleep and nutrition.

He is far more than just a personal trainer, and in an industry where there is a considerable variation in quality, I could not be happier that I did not compromise by going elsewhere.

You are welcome to contact me directly if you have any questions about the experience that I have had with Pyry."

"My experience with Coach Pyry has been amazing!  

He provides a holistic approach to health that encompasses physical, mental, nutritional, and sleep-related aspects.

From our first session, it was clear that Pyry wasn't just another fitness instructor. The attention given to understanding my lifestyle, habits, and emotional state was unlike any other training program I'd encountered.

Each session was meticulously designed to tackle not just the body, but the mind and soul too.

I genuinely appreciated the well-rounded program and the unwavering support provided.

Each Q&A session, piece of advice, and encouragement was nothing short of exceptional.

My progress in each area has been monumental, and I am deeply grateful for it.

For anyone considering an online fitness solution, look no further. I have truly enjoyed every aspect of the program and can confidently say it has been immensely beneficial.

I will undoubtedly recommend Pyry to anyone seeking a comprehensive approach to health and fitness!"

"Coach Pyry is an awesome trainer who'll help you achieve your goals in a safe and efficient manner.

Very dedicated, and an amazing support and guide for your journey. He has helped me achieve my goals, go past them and enjoy every step of the way!

Couldn't have had a better trainer here.

Thank you!"

"By training with Pyry I went through a major transformation.

He is someone who knows so much about his profession and is constantly developing in it. And shares all his knowledge with so much pleasure. Basically my whole lifestyle has taken a turn. Something I had been working on for a while but thanks to Pyry its now finally consistent.

I cannot praise his training enough and every way he deals with life. The small changes in habits have made me so much stronger, healthier and energized.

"Pyry has been the best coach I’ve had throughout my fitness journey.

Being a soccer player, having worked with Pyry during my offseason was one of the best experiences I could have asked for.

Being able to tailor a program to suit my goals enabled me to obtain the strength and power I was aspiring to achieve, without losing my cardiovascular fitness.

Many of the exercises and philosophies Pyry provided me I still use daily.

I highly recommend speaking to Pyry if you are a sporting athlete looking to enhance your performance and overall fitness knowledge."

Andrew Taylor

"I've been fortunate to participate in a transformative health and fitness journey under the guidance of Coach Pyry.

His holistic approach, encompassing physical, mental, nutritional, and sleep-related aspects, has truly changed my life.

From our very first session, Pyry's commitment to understanding my lifestyle and emotional well-being set him apart.

Every session was thoughtfully curated to target not only my body but also my mind and soul. The unwavering support, advice, and encouragement I received were exceptional, resulting in monumental progress across all areas. Pyry's online training program shattered my initial reservations, proving to be incredibly responsive and enriching.

His emphasis on technique not only improved my posture but also increased my strength fivefold without a single injury.

The customized training app he provides is a valuable tool for tracking daily workouts, nutrition, and healthy habits, and it's impeccably organized.

Having been Pyry's client for nearly five years, I can confidently say he's not just a fitness coach, but a life coach who has profoundly impacted my well-being.

I wholeheartedly recommend Pyry to anyone seeking a comprehensive approach to health and fitness!

Vi Linh Tran, 30s

"I have really appreciated Pyry’s approach to training. He has been able to re-energise my approach with all aspects to health with a full holistic approach.

We have tackled sleep, breath, movement, nutrition and strength and I am feeling amazing for it.

Prior to training with Pyry I was a bit conscious of training online and the limitations, but he has been super responsive and the support from his material and guidance has made online training a great system.

Pyry has also been able to coach me to slow down and focus on the technique, changing my approach with all my lifts.

In the long run this has helped my posture, my strength has increased by 5-fold and have done it all injury free."

John Ferrier

40s, Head Of Beverage

"I have been a client of Coach Pyry for a while now.

Once as a regular PT for about 10 months and more recently as an online client.

Pyry is top of his game and keeps abreast of new developments in the health and fitness space through regular programs, workshops, and professional development. His learnings benefit his clients in the results we get.

Pyry's online coaching is a marvellous program and very good value for money especially since it for your own health and longevity."

Gavin Wulfsohn

"I have been training with Pyry for a number of years now, pre, during and 'post' COVID.

Its always been challenging for both Pyry and myself as I'm not the easiest person to plan for and prone to getting injured outside training :).

Pyry has an enormous repertoire of exercises and techniques to work around any injury and get the most out of your sessions.

What I like about my time with Pyry is there's always that little nuance on an exercise you have mastered just to make it really hard and challenging again.

I have gained considerable muscle mass, strength and agility not to mention the ability to wind down after work and short circuit intense stressful situations whilst at work using breathing and stretching techniques I have learnt.

Holistically I'm an improved person and believe I can maintain this well into the future.

Jamie Atkinson

50s, Chief Technological Officer

"Pyry is a passionate and knowledgeable coach.

Beyond helping get my lifting techniques right (which weren’t as good as I had thought!), he has a great wholistic approach to training which also focusses on improving diet and sleep.

No gimmicks, just good advice on how to get the most out of your body, goals and live a healthy lifestyle.

I get so much more out of every hour in the gym than what I used to before training with Pyry."

Paul Summers

40s, Senior Manager

 "Pyry is not only a 'trainer' but a passionate advocate of wholistic fitness, healthy eating and sleeping habits.

He is one of few trainers I have met that inspires by living, breathing and training by example daily. Investing time with Pyry has been a valuable investment in my body, overall health and my quality of life.

I highly recommend Pyry, especially if you are time poor, to motivate you towards kick starting healthier habits and a stronger looking physique for yourself"

 "Over the last eight months Pyry has taught me a great deal about the human body. 

Pyry’s emphasis on form, breath, and mobility immediately challenged my misconceptions of resistance training, and demanded of me a level of focus and awareness I hadn’t thought would be necessary at the gym.

I found myself stimulated by the challenge of new movements and exercises, and surprised by how quickly my flexibility, posture and sleep improved. 

Pyry’s method has completely changed how I view resistance training and has encouraged in me a more curious, mindful approach to making my body functionally (not only aesthetically) strong.

Another point worth noting is that Pyry’s method is inherently adaptive. This is evidenced by how quickly he identifies my areas of inflexibility or weakness, and how thoughtfully he focusses on integrating corrective exercises into our existing workouts.

When the COVID-19 restrictions took effect, Pyry’s training also adapted: Our sessions in the park lost none of their value, and instead opened the door to new exercises, movements and challenges.

As a person, Pyry is a stand up guy and a good friend. He’s incredibly well organised and consistent.

I appreciate how regularly he checks in on progress and holds me to account. This demonstrates that his method doesn’t just start and end in the gym. 

Pyry’s extra knowledge around sleep, breathing technique and nutrition has also had a considerable impact on my broader health and wellbeing. Our breath training over Zoom in particular has markedly improved my sleep and energy levels. 

I’d recommend Pyry to anyone with a genuine interest in pursuing holistic, lasting improvement to their strength, health and wellbeing. What a guy."

"When I first met Pyry I was 40, and believed I was in great physical condition.

I played basketball twice a week, rode to work most days and was running a couple of times a week.

Due to a knee and ankle injury I did suffer from joint pain and a restricted range of motion. I felt like I'd exhausted all avenues to address my knee pain so thought I'd give Pyry a go for 12 weeks.

What I discovered pretty quickly was that despite all the activity I was undertaking, there were muscle groups that were very weak.

Pyry's ability to identify these and design a program to strengthen them was amazing.

After 12 weeks I can say that I feel in peak physical condition and have the confidence to continue training and improving both activity specific and core strength.

Much of the above I did expect to achieve, however what I didn't expect to achieve as a direct result of working with Pyry was:

- Complete loss of knee pain, something I've not been able to achieve after years of physio

- Improved well being through a focus on improved sleep patterns

- Implementation of a diet that has been life-changing. Seriously!!

- Understanding the importance of correct technique.

If you're making the investment of time, money and effort by training, why wouldn't you want to maximise the benefit you derived from this?

I can neither thank nor recommend Pyry and his work enough. And a great bloke to boot!!"

Nick Schjif

40s, Chief Operating Officer

 "Before working with Pyry, my training didn't have much direction to it. I was usually just doing random workouts.

When I started with Pyry, he not only helped me better understand my training and nutrition, but also helped me set goals to work towards and develop a better training mindset.

With a keen eye for detail, he was able to help me improve my form while helping me get stronger than even before.

For anyone looking to work with Pyry, you can rest assured you are getting a great coach who will help you excel whatever your goals may be."
