Chris Mason Performance

The best personal trainer I have ever had - I have seen more results with Chris than many years of my own training including a personal trainer in London. Chris takes the time to care for his clients and it shows. He is exceptionally good at what he does and has helped me to surpass the goals I expected for myself in relation to building muscle mass. Chris will get you results.

I rocked up at CMP in mid-July 2022 knocking 50, feeling tired and decidedly out of shape, having put on extra weight during two years of pandemic-prompted working from home. I was also a tad sceptical having read the reviews on here -- could a small gym based 5-6 minutes walk from home really be this good? The answer was an emphatic yes! I've now been working with Ben Duggan at CMP for 8 months, and can honestly say it's been a remarkable experience. Tough at timesbut the best kind of hard work, where you can see and feel the payoff days and weeks later. I've lost around 15kg in weight, which is great of course -- but more important than that, I feel fitter, stronger and more energetic than I have for years. What I value most about CMP's approach is that it's grounded in hard science -- including physiology, nutrition, hypertrophy and psychology -- but also highly personalised and adaptive to real-world rates of progress, and to the occasional setbacks that we all experience, whether due to work, holiday or illness. Ben has been a real pleasure to work with throughout -- you simply couldn't ask for a more supportive and experienced guide on your journey back to fitness. After six months of doing three weekly sessions with Ben at CMP in Sheffield, in January 2023, I moved to training online, when I had to spend 2-3 months abroad for work. This has obviously required a bit more effort on my part -- finding a gym abroad, and getting to grips with the Trainerize app -- but Ben has been there every step of the way, offering practical advice and encouragement, and checking in daily to see how I'm getting on. Now I'm looking forward to getting home to Sheffield and combining face-to-face training with online while I continue pushing towards my target weight and fitness! One of the best things about working with CMP is their approach is essentially "teach someone to fish, and you feed them for a lifetime" applied to fitness, diet and nutrition. I feel 100% confident that the skills and techniques that Ben has taught me, and the resulting improvements that I've seen in my health, fitness and wellbeing, are here to stay. I'm hugely grateful to Ben and CMP for that.

Great place for personal training. Friendly staff and put the effort in for you to get to your goals. Gym is amazing setup. Bit pricey however you pay for quality.

I made the decision to join CMP after being diagnosed with diabetes type 2 , high cholesterol and PCOS, I managed to reverse all these conditions with the help of James at CMP as he coached me on nutrition and exercise, I have lost 2 dress sizes and more than 20Ib in the space of 20 weeks and I feel healthier , energetic and confident. I would definitely recommend CMP as they have transformed my life.

Chris is an excellent PT. His workout and nutritional plans work. His online coaching service is really good, the weekly check ins are invaluable as Chris adapts the programme to you personally. He is always on hand to provide advice and guidance. Would highly recommend and I hope to return to Chris and his programmes in the near future.
