About Me

James

Personal Trainer in Aberdare

Hi! I’m Cerys — a Personal Trainer, Sports and Exercise Science graduate, and running enthusiast based at PureGym Aberdare. My mission is simple: to help you feel fitter, stronger, and more confident, and enjoy every step of the journey.

“I combine scientific knowledge with real-world experience to create sessions that are challenging, enjoyable, and built entirely around you.”

My BSc in Sports and Exercise Sciences means every programme I write is grounded in evidence — not guesswork. Whether you’re chasing a personal best, training for your first 5K, or simply wanting to move better, I’ll build a plan that fits your life.

I create 1-2-1 sessions that are personal training in the truest sense. Feel free to reach out or catch me on the gym floor at PureGym Aberdare.
