Restrive Personal Training: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I can't express how grateful I am for the incredible journey I've had at RESTRIVE with Ben as my guide. In just 16 weeks, I've achieved a remarkable body transformation, shedding an impressive 17kg! But the changes go beyond the scale, as Ben and the team helped me enhance various health markers that were previously concerning. Under Ben's expert guidance, we focused on a holistic approach to fitness, incorporating strength training, daily step goals, and a nutrition strategy around flexible dieting. This unique combination not only made the process enjoyable but also tailored it to my individual needs. The results speak for themselves—my blood pressure, resting heart rate, cholesterol levels, and even pre-diabetic markers have all seen significant improvements. I feel healthier, more energetic, and in control of my well-being like never before. What sets RESTRIVE and Ben apart is their dedication to understanding each individual's journey. Ben's knowledge of flexible dieting is a game-changer. If you're unfamiliar with this approach, I strongly encourage you to reach out to Ben and discover its transformative power. The professionalism, support, and positive atmosphere at RESTRIVE make it clear that they are the best in the business. Ben's commitment to his clients' success is unmatched, and I wholeheartedly recommend RESTRIVE to anyone seeking a personalized, effective, and life-changing fitness experience. Thank you, Ben, and the entire RESTRIVE team, for helping me become the best version of myself!
Thanks Liz. We take pride at Restrive in transforming your body and your health!

Thanks, Simon. We couldn't have put it better ourselves, the whole team at Restrive are dedicated to their craft and helping clients get the best results possible. Training, nutrition, lifestyle management, whatever it takes!
Fantastic experience: When I knew I was relocating to Dubai from the Uk I took the opportunity to look for James as I knew he was based here. I had a great experience training with James about 6 years ago back in london . His holistic approach to training and no excuses attitude is what I neee . First thing I did when I got to dubai was to reach out and get started. I look forward to my sessions, I have a proper daily accountability , which for me is the key. I am extremely happy with the steady results around my training, fat loss and gaining strength. I highly recommend Restrive, not just for physical but also mental well-being.
Thanks, Roland. It is awesome training with you and, like you mention, witnessing the improvement not only physically, but mentally too! Looking forward to your training sessions is always a plus!
Fantastic experience: I would like to express my gratitude to Ben from RESTRIVE! I began my training journey with Ben with the intention of shedding some stubborn belly fat and improving my overall muscle tone. However, Ben's guidance and support went far beyond my initial goals. In a short period of time, my strength and fitness levels improved significantly, enabling me to tackle exercises I never would have dared to attempt on my own. Every workout session was customized to suit my specific needs and aspirations, ensuring that I could achieve exactly what we had discussed. I have gained a wealth of knowledge from Ben, as he willingly shares his expertise and addresses any questions I have. His nutrition advice is exceptional, and his dedication to his craft is evident. Ben's energy, enthusiasm, commitment, and ability to inspire are truly remarkable. Throughout my exercise program, Ben knew precisely how to motivate, challenge, entertain, and distract me when needed. He emphasized the importance of maintaining proper form, which has become ingrained in my approach to fitness. The program he designed for me allowed me to progress to more advanced exercises, and I am astonished by the amount of weight I can now lift, push, or press! Ben always exuded positivity and cheerfulness, which boosted my confidence. His expertise was evident, and whenever I encountered difficulty, he would offer alternative variations that allowed me to gradually work my way up to the full exercise. And yes, the results were evident not only to me but also to my friends. In just one month, I visibly reduced body fat, gained definition, improved my eating habits, increased my energy levels, and enhanced my appearance. Ben has truly made the gym a fun and exciting place for me once again! Having been a gym-goer for years, I had grown bored and frustrated with my lack of progress. However, Ben introduced me to an entirely new training approach and continues to introduce me to new and enjoyable exercises. He has also provided invaluable assistance with my diet, resulting in renewed progress and a newfound eagerness to hit the gym. Ben is an exceptional personal trainer who never ceases to impress me! I cannot emphasize enough how highly I recommend Ben at RESTRIVE, regardless of your fitness goals. I am incredibly grateful to Ben, and I eagerly anticipate our continued partnership and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead!
Thanks, Jack. Awesome to see your training with Restrive has re-ignited your passion for your health and fitness!
Fantastic experience: These boys are the real deal. My 5 week effort with Ben produced exceptional results, and the process was transformational physically, mentally and emotionally. If you’re thinking about it you’re already there - take the next step and get it done. Thank me later!
Thanks, Mike! Doing a 5-week transformation is no joke but you smashed it. The whole team at Restrive was amazed at what you achieved in such a short space of time!
Fantastic experience: Have trained with Ruan at Restrive for just over two and half years as he is consistent, reliable and adopts a holistic approach to training. It is reassuring that he continues to learn and keep abreast of his fitness knowledge and constantly looks for ways to modify exercises to address imbalances - focusing on mobility as well as strength training. He is an excellent coach who rather than being prescriptive, allows the client to find their answers through guided questions. Thoroughly recommend him as a PT who is fully vested in the client’s fitness journey.
Fantastic experience: My fitness journey with Restrive Personal Training has been an incredible experience, one that continues to exceed my expectations. The team at Restrive has crafted a unique and effective approach to fitness that doesn't confine itself within the limitations of a physical gym. This innovative model has afforded me the flexibility to train in a manner that best fits my lifestyle and personal goals. Their commitment to providing personalized attention and expert guidance has made a significant impact on both my physical and mental health. Among the standout professionals at Restrive, my personal trainer, Tom, has been instrumental in my ongoing progress. His expertise, coupled with a genuine commitment to my well-being, has made each session both challenging and rewarding. Tom's ability to tailor workouts to my individual needs, while pushing me towards my goals, exemplifies the quality and dedication of the entire Restrive team. Their supportive and positive environment motivates me to strive for better health and fitness with each passing day. I am truly appreciative of the hard work and dedication of Tom and the Restrive team and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to make a meaningful change in their fitness journey.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Ruan, he has been so professional and works closely with you to achieve your goals in a realistic manner. My technique has improved and i am seeing results! Thank you
Fantastic experience: The trainers at Restrive are to personal training what professors at Harvard are to education. If you are looking for the best support to optimise your personal wellbeing, strength and nutrition then Restrive is the place for you. I have trained with Tom, Ben and Ruan. All three are experts in their field and highly skilled. Would recommend with no hesitation. I have not been paid or received any benefit from Restrive for this recommendation
Fantastic experience: Ben has been amazing with my weight loss journey. Last year I had been working out with a pt for over a year and lost 1 kg in total. In our short time with Ben I have lost 4 kg! He is patient and result driven. Thanks Ben
Thanks Asma! So glad you're enjoying your personal training with Ben & Restrive!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been training on and off with Ben for almost 5 years now, and believe he is one of the most experienced & committed trainers around. I really enjoy the variety & challenges he puts into the sessions. Ben is focused on helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging (& somehow fun). My strength, tone and fitness has increased noticeably and I’ve seen improvements in my ability to lift progressively heavier weights & generally push myself harder throughout each session. I find I actually look forward to my workouts. Importantly - He ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries. He is extremely reliable & punctual – always set up & ready to start training ahead of time, with an exercise routine planned. I thoroughly enjoy working out with Ben and would recommend Ben & colleagues to anyone looking to improve their fitness with a dedicated group of trainers.
Thanks Naomi, we are glad you've had such a great experience training with Restrive. Who knew you could look forward to doing the pendulum?!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Restrive. James is by far the best personal trainer I have ever trained with. His dedication to clients is second to none. He is extremely attentive & takes time to explain the training program, provides a nutrition plan & keeps your accountable. He knows how to find a way to motivate a client, even if it takes texting 3 times a day to check what you are eating :) Very grateful to James for getting me into the best shape I’ve ever been in.
Thanks, Eugenia! We will do whatever it takes at Restrive to help you get the result you deserve! Even if that means trying our best to control your "gallivanting" outside of personal training sessions!
Fantastic experience: I know James for 6 years and have been training with him consistently throughout 2023. He’s one of the best trainers I have had and has really helped me on getting my goals achieved. I got to enjoy the gym once again and James has played a big part on it. I do recommend James Appleton to whoever wants to improve their physical condition, money worth spent.
It's been awesome helping with your transformation, Cesar. Here's to many more personal training sessions with Restrive!
Fantastic experience: I’ve trained with Restrive for 5 months and have been really happy with the whole experience and the results. Since stopping playing competitive sports I’ve struggled to find something that I’ve really enjoyed which helps my health and this has done that for me. I’ve struggled with injuries to my back and shoulder but the team at restrive were able to work around them to achieve the same end result. The training and nutrition programs are catered to the individual and results are tracked constantly so you are always aware and accountable of progress. My own health and mental well being have improved dramatically since starting and I plan to continue this into 2024.
Thanks, Sam! It was great to help you achieve your transformation! Training focus this year = a bigger, better Sam 2.0!
Fantastic experience: James changed my outlook on fitness, training and nutrition in October 2020... the results after an initial 8 week transformation programme were phenomenal - I managed to drop 9kgs of weight!! Having halved my body fat percentage at the same time, all thanks to the plan put in place by James. Now fully understanding the educational journey, my lifestyle has entirely changed for the better, James explains everything in great detail, with regards to form and diet. It all make sense and we continue training together today, long may it continue! Training is hard, always looking to get stronger, and pushing for those extras reps! I have and will continue to recommend James to anyone looking to change their fitness goals and change their outlook on training and nutrition.
Thanks, Tom. Always an enjoyable training session! Glad Restrive has been able to not only help you with your transformation, but educate you along the way.
Fantastic experience: Before starting with Restrive I had fallen into a bout of inactivity. I was out of shape, and eating very poorly. Really I was just deeply unhappy with my physical appearance and fitness levels but with no clear plan of action on how to change anything. James helped me with this from the very get go. Helping me understand the process of weight loss and transformation. He broke down the daunting overall task of losing nearly 10kg into something achievable and attainable. Without James’ knowledge and input here, that task would still have been too big to even start. Once we got going with the tailored training plan, which he regularly amended depending on my progress and feedback, he kept me motivated and accountable over the 12 weeks. Starting new habits, challenges and life style changes can be really tricky with personal and professional commitments. The reassurance James gave across these obstacles helped me understand how consistency is key, but life still goes on. I enjoyed weddings, birthdays, celebrations just as I would have done previously. Learning how to do that is definitely one of my key takeaways moving forward. Overall I couldn’t recommend Restrive enough! The consistent support, interaction and education on all things training and nutrition was absolutely vital to me achieving something I didn’t think I could. 10/10.
Thanks, Max! It was incredible to witness your mental and physical transformation during your personal training with Restrive!
Fantastic experience: I’m the first to admit that it’s a cliche to say this but it has been a life changing experience training with James and Restrive. I have trained with James for 5 years now. I had trained with a few other trainers before James, but not for more than 6 - 12 months each. There was something missing with those trainers. James is different. He has a unique ability to understand his clients aptitude for training and their lives outside of the gym. The latter impacts the former so James focuses on both, and tailors his approach to training to accommodate each clients strengths, weaknesses and lifestyles. Training with James is a constant in my life. It’s my escape from a busy professional life and the results I achieve in the gym benefit me outside the gym. James has made it incredibly easy for me to maintain a healthy and sustainable lifestyle in a fun and exciting way. He has been by my side every step of the way; when I’ve wanted to give up; when I’ve struggled with health challenges; and when I’m at my strongest in the gym. James genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to succeed. I couldn’t recommend training with James highly enough.
The original Restrive client! It has been a pleasure training with you for all these years and getting you in incredible shape for some of your big life events! Long may it continue!
Fantastic experience: James has been outstanding throughout this process and has always been on hand to support or tailor things as and when needed. The changes made in a short space of time I simply could not have done alone. The nutrition side of things wasn’t restricted and I never felt like it was a ‘diet’ and this has now just become normal for me now to maintain. I dropped over a stone in body fat and now have a completely different outlook and relationship with food/gym, thanks for the support and guidance!! Highly recommend
Thanks, Danny! You personal training transformation with Restrive was incredible!
