  • Training with Gregor is the best fitness decision I've ever made.I've achieved PBs in both marathon and half marathon and through it all have remained injury free!

  • Gregor is a great PT. He listens to you, and takes you from where you are at. He knows how to motivate and when you can do more, and manages to challenge you without you feeling judged. I would thoroughly recommend him!
