Ed Walker - Personal Trainer

"You can't build a castle on the sand"

About me

I’ve worked in sport, fitness and leisure since I was 16, starting as an apprentice lifeguard and eventually spending 11 years as Deputy Head of Sport at Brunel University London. I’ve been lucky to work with incredible people and world‑class athletes along the way.
 
After redundancy in 2025, I returned to what I love most: helping people move, feel better and build confidence through Personal Training and Sports Massage Therapy. I now work with everyone from first‑time gym‑goers to national athletes and those returning after long breaks.
 
Family is a huge part of who I am. I’m married to an unbelievably strong woman who beat breast cancer at 24 - she’s my daily reminder of resilience. We also have a brilliant 16‑year‑old son finding his own path in life.
 
Why choose a program from me? Because I’ve made every mistake in the book - injuries, fads, bad training habits (yes, we even owned a Shake Weight!). I understand busy family life, real‑world pressures and how hard it can be to fit training in. My clients are teachers, engineers, managers and researchers - real people with real lives.
I’m here to guide you. You just need to take the first step.
