a hobby,
it's a
lifestyle’
ANDREW'S JOURNEY
Apex-Gym is owned and managed by Andrew Brown. Andrew’s path to fitness had a rocky start because he was 6’ 3”, seriously underweight
and had a poor relationship with food and a
poor appetite. Feeling embarrassed about
his appearance in his teens, he started weight training when he was 17. At the start of his journey he was 60kg, whereas now he is
around 100kg and much fitter and athletic!


The success of the gym is all about working together as a team. Andrew has created an experienced and effective team to support you in achieving your goals at Apex-Gym.
Our team of experienced, trained and friendly staff are always available to help, they are very passionate and take pride in helping others achieve their goals, whether that is weight loss, muscle gain or just wanting to feel and look better yourself.
We are lucky to be the home of the best personal trainers in Stoke on Trent, ready to help you succeed.

WILLIAMS
Helping people to enjoy exercise, build confidence and find training styles that are effective and achieve results has become my passion.
If you want to make changes in your life, then only you can make them happen. That's what I found in 2012 when I started my own personal fitness journey. I'd been gaining weight throughout my early 20's, eating too much and having a desk bound job with virtually no exercise or activity. I decided to hit the gym and was spending hours every week doing cardio, but I wasn't getting the results or the toned body I had hoped for. Eventually I hired a personal trainer which turned out to be the best thing I have ever done. My personal trainer taught me so much about exercise and nutrition, helping me to understand that I didn't need to spend hours each week to achieve the fit, toned and healthy body I wanted. This inspired me become a qualified personal trainer - so that now, I help others realise their goals.
I'm a Level 4 personal trainer and nutrition coach with over five years full time personal training experience.

RACHE
TROUSDALE
I’m a Mum of four small children, so I know what it’s like to juggle family life with getting fit and keeping your fitness at the right level. I’ve worked at Apex Gym since the gym opened in 2019.
It’s long been noted that going to the gym is as much about mental health and well-being and not just about being good for you physically. At Apex Gym we foster an atmosphere and environment that encourages friendship and making our clients feel comfortable, safe and proud to train.
Simply having a friendly, approachable smile from behind the reception desk from me, I hope to make you feel a part of the Apex community.
See you soon!

I’m Danny, a Personal Trainer who truly understands the juggling act of being a parent alongside work commitments and how challenging it can be to prioritise your fitness while managing a busy lifestyle.
My fitness journey began when I was 14 and at the time I knew nothing about exercising or nutrition!
I’ve dedicated the past 16 years educating myself on different types of training and have explored all types of diets and the benefits.
Through highs and lows, from being fully committed and consistent to falling completely off and repeat.
I’ve learned how to maintain the right balance to achieve and sustain my fitness goals while still enjoying all aspects of life.
I am incredibly passionate about living a healthy and happy life!
I want to work with people who are wanting to achieve the healthiest, happiest and fittest version of themselves, without sacrificing life balance.
By working together, we’ll create a personalised approach that fits your into routine, allowing you to progress in your fitness journey whilst being present for those precious moments with family and life experiences.

MOUNTFORD
Hi, I'm Lona
​
A personal trainer who's main focus is to help people believe in themselves and over small changes gradually love themselves for who they are. Weighing in at over 23st was the time I needed to start believing in myself and changing my life. After losing over half my body weight and loving the gym life I knew what I wanted to do; to help others. I truly know the emotions that come with having low confidence, being overweight etc...As a mother of 3 and a grandmother it's never too late to start, my only regret is that I didn't start sooner.
I also do a lot of research and studies into the menopause with entering this stage of life myself I can relate to issues that this brings.

"I've been a member of Apex Gym for over a year now, and recently decided to go with one of the personal trainers at Apex to help me reach my goals. I can already tell the difference, and my workouts feel more focused. Would highly reccomend the Apex PT's if you're after a personal trainer in Stoke on Trent"
- Jack
“Weight training is more than just vanity. It's therapy, mental aid. Apex is not just a gym
full of weights, it's a place
to cleanse your mind, reset your mood, de stress from
the pressures of your everyday life. The gym I’ve built is filled with likeminded people, full of culture and diversity but
one team and one community.”
Andrew Brown, Owner Apex-Gym
