Glasgow's
East End
Gym & PT

I started Generation Health & Fitness in October 2022 because I'd spent years watching people fail — not because they weren't trying, but because the environment was working against them.

Big chain gyms were overcrowded, intimidating, and indifferent. Beginners couldn't get on machines. Nobody checked in on them. And if you were a parent trying to get your life back, you had to choose between your kids and your health. That never sat right with me.

I also saw how personal trainers were being treated — handed a keycard, told to find their own clients, and left to figure everything out alone. No support, no development, no investment in them as people. I knew there was a better way to do this.

So me and my business partner Craig built something different. A gym designed around the people who'd always felt like they didn't belong in one. People who'd walk into a big gym, look around, and walk straight back out. Parents who needed somewhere their kids could be while they trained. Beginners who needed someone in their corner from day one.

Growing up I was always the skinny, weak one. Bubbly and full of chat — but zero confidence underneath it all. Fitness changed that for me, and I've spent my career making sure it can do the same for other people.

I've been a personal trainer since 2020 and today I help people lose fat, rebuild their energy and optimise their health through fitness, nutrition, and where it's right for them, advanced coaching including GLP-1 and peptide guidance. I've worked in Glasgow's East End since I was 20. I know the people here, I understand the barriers, and I built this place specifically for them.

When you walk through that door, you're not a number. You're the reason this place exists.
