'I left my corporate job to help women reach their fitness goals as a personal trainer in Shropshire with clients aged from 18 to 78'
Lauren Baines is dedicated to helping women reach their fitness and wellbeing goals. Having competed in sport at a high level up into early adulthood, she decided to become a personal trainer in 2019.
“I had been working in the corporate world for quite a long time. It was fine but it didn’t set my world on fire,” explains Lauren, who is based in Ackleton, Shropshire.
“I loved keeping fit and thought I would love to help people to do the same,” she adds.
After earning her Level 3 Diploma in Personal Training, Lauren started offering sessions part-time and also launched the Thursday Fitness Club, now known as the Get Strong Club, at Ackleton Village Hall in 2021.
“Earlier this year I decided to take the plunge and go full-time and it has really ramped up since then.
“The Get Strong Club and my personal training have evolved over the years as I have become more experienced and realised where my strengths lie,” says the 33-year-old.
Lauren specialises in personal training for women that is tailored to their exact needs and her clients range in age from 18 to 78.
“I work around women’s hormone cycles and their energy levels throughout the month, picking up the pace when they have got more energy and working with their body in that moment of time,” she says.
For each client, Lauren will carry out a fitness assessment as well as a health and lifestyle assessment and will help them to set their goals and to monitor their progress.
She offers weekly 60-minute personal training sessions along with a personalised programme for the month and nutritional advice.
