SOUND FAMILIAR?

You joined the gym. Now what?

You wander between machines, not sure what to do next.

You follow random YouTube workouts that never connect.

You’ve joined a gym before and quit by week 3.

It's not you. You just don't have a plan. Training Pal fixes that.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps. Zero guesswork.

1

Get started with me

Download the free Everfit app, where Training Pal lives. Get your welcome pack and message me directly for your first 4 weeks. On the 3-month plan, we kick off with a 20-minute 1-to-1.

2

Follow your plan

Open the app and every session is laid out for you: exercises, sets, reps and weights.

3

Track and level up

Log your lifts, watch the numbers climb, and step up to a new phase every 4 weeks.

YOUR ROADMAP

One clear path, from day one.

Six months, beginner to advanced. A new phase every 4 weeks, so you never stall or get bored. Then pick a 12-week specialisation, built around your own tested numbers.

From “where do I even start?” to your first Hyrox, in one clear plan.

MEET YOUR COACH

Hi, I'm Alan.

I'm a qualified personal trainer and I run Ascend Personal Training. I've got over 6,000 hours of coaching behind me, and I still coach 30+ sessions a week on the gym floor.

Gym members kept asking me for help, but 1-to-1 PT wasn't in their budget. So I built Training Pal: the same structure I use with my clients, in a plan you can follow on your own, with me in your corner.

Qualified PT 6,000+ coaching hours Founder, Ascend PT

What my PT clients say

Tim after training with AlanAFTER
“Since starting training, I’ve lost 25kg and I’m the strongest and fittest I’ve ever been. I feel completely different both physically and mentally, and training has become something I genuinely enjoy. The support, structure and accountability have made a massive difference.”
Tim · In-person PT client · Lost 25kg

Tim trained with me face to face. Training Pal gives you the same structure in an app. Individual results vary.

“In January 2024 I had shoulder surgery. I couldn’t lift anything – literally. In March I started rehab with Alan. He worked to the surgeon’s direction and made me feel safe whilst pushing beyond my fears… In four months Alan took me from using bands to benching 30kg, cycling 40 miles and losing 5kg. Thank you Alan!”
Naomi · In-person PT client · Back from shoulder surgery

Naomi trained with me face to face for four months. Training Pal gives you the same structure in an app. Individual results vary.

“After struggling for many years, his approach has helped me lose weight, build strength, and improve my mobility. He knows exactly how to push you without overwhelming you.”
Sarah · Lost weight, built strength and mobility
“My main goals were to get stronger in the gym and lose weight… I’ve already noticed progress and feel more confident in the gym thanks to his guidance.”
Cat · Stronger and more confident in the gym
“From the very first session, he took the time to understand my fitness goals and tailored a programme that suits my needs perfectly. I’ve seen significant improvements in my strength, endurance and overall fitness level.”
Georgie · Stronger, fitter, more endurance

QUESTIONS

Good to know

I'm a complete beginner. Is this for me?

Yes, it's built for you. The Beginner level starts with the basics, mostly on machines. Every plan comes with step-by-step onboarding guides, and I’m on hand by message for your first 4 weeks while you find your feet.

Do I need a gym membership?

Yes. The plan is designed to be done in a gym, using the kit most gyms have. There's also a Home Workouts collection for the days you can't get there.

What if I can’t train 3 days a week?

No problem. The 3-day plan is full body, so every session trains everything. That means it still works if you can only train once or twice a week. There’s also a 4-day plan, and both come with a weights path or a strength & conditioning path.

How much time do I get with you?

For your first 4 weeks you can message me directly in the app, and I’ll reply within 24 hours. That’s when having someone in your corner matters most. The 3-Month Coached Start also includes three 20-minute 1-to-1s, and you can book extra ones any time for £20.

What happens after 3 months?

Nothing renews automatically, so you'll never be charged without choosing to. Towards the end, we'll look at your progress together, and if you want to keep moving up the levels you can carry on for £29.99 a month, with no contract.

I have an injury or health condition. Can I still do it?

Often, yes. I work with clients coming back from injuries and surgery in person. Check with your GP or physio first, then tell me about it when you join, and I’ll help you swap exercises so your plan works around it. Training Pal isn’t medical advice or a replacement for physio.

How does it work once I sign up?

You'll get an email to download the free Everfit app and log in. Training Pal lives inside it: just tap the TP tab. Your welcome pack is waiting there, and on the 3-month plan you'll also get a link to book your first 1-to-1. Then you open the app and follow the session.

Stop guessing. Start progressing.

Your plan is ready the moment you join.
