Meet Your Coach
Hi, I’m Neilie Johnstone.
I know how overwhelming it can feel to lose weight or start exercising when you don’t know where to begin. That’s why I focus on making fitness simple, realistic, and sustainable.
I help people who are new to the gym-or who lack confidence-lose weight, build strength, improve their fitness, and become the kind of person who walks into the gym knowing exactly what they’re doing.
I believe fitness should make your life better-not take it over. That’s why every programme is designed to fit around your lifestyle, helping you build confidence, create healthy habits, and achieve results you can maintain for the long term.
Whether you’re balancing work, family, or a busy schedule, I’ll create a plan that works with your life-not the other way around.
Together, we’ll build healthier habits, improve your mobility, increase your energy, and create results you can maintain for years-not just weeks.
When you work with me, you’ll receive:
- Personalised training tailored to your goals
- Realistic nutrition advice without restrictive dieting
- A structured training plan that adapts as you progress
- Ongoing accountability and support
- Expert coaching every step of the way
My goal isn’t just to help you lose weight.
It’s to help you become stronger, healthier, more confident, and build habits that last a lifetime.
No extremes.
No guesswork.
Just expert coaching, consistent progress, and lasting results.
Let’s build a stronger, healthier future-together.
