Gavyn Berntsen

CO FOUNDER AND HEAD COACH

I'm Gavyn, and I've been working in the fitness industry for the last 8 years. I'd gone through some surgeries myself and saw how badly looked after people were when they'd experienced an injury.

That wasn't my idea of what health should be like. I started by reverse-engineering the level of care I wish I'd been shown. It was tough because there weren't many examples I could use out there, but by continually coming back to the idea of "how would I want to be treated?" I was able to design something that worked.

It was never about looking a particular way, so much as it was about living more fully and more independently. That makes a genuine impact on someone's quality of life, and I love to see how surprised people are at how easily we can make the programme fit into their lives.

I have extensive experience in training older adults from 40 up to 85 years old. My approach to training is to help my clients not only lose weight, but to move functionally despite having injuries. The result is to feel younger and feel amazing.

About GRowing Younger

At Growing Younger, we know that age doesn't come alone. With it comes aches and pains, low energy and - something that nobody warns you about - a lack of confidence in your own physical ability. When clients start with us, they would sometimes have to make safety preparations if they were taking a bath or intending to do any physical task outside alone just in case their back would "give out" just as they were trying to get up. After just a few weeks, they were stronger, fitter and had more confidence in their bodies than they had for years. Lots of them didn't even realise at first how much it was making them second guess their lives. 
​​

We don't believe that the gym should leave you feeling aching and sore. Your physical training should empower you, energise you and leave you feeling better off than before. That's a mistake lots of people make when they start training, and then they wonder why they don't want to stick to their training regime. 

Our programme will leave you feeling like you're thriving and getting truly bespoke support through your health and fitness routines. If you'd like to have more energy, more confidence, and even more physical strength, it starts with reaching out and having a conversation about your goals. There's nothing too strict about how we do things here. It's designed to be sustainable and enjoyable and puts your health first.
