Our Story
Two mates. Two skillsets. One belief.
Training should make your whole life better, not swallow it. That's the idea Your Personal Trainers is built on, and it's why we don't sound like every other coaching page.
The Short Version
Where it started
Your Personal Trainers began the way the best things usually do: two mates who took training seriously, got genuinely good at helping other people, and realised they were better together than apart.
Matt is the personal trainer and cricket coach. Haaroon is the coach who understands the mental side as deeply as the physical. Their skillsets overlap just enough to speak the same language, and differ just enough to cover everything a person needs to get fitter, stronger or better at their sport, and to genuinely enjoy the process.
The name is deliberate. Not "a" personal trainer. Your personal trainers. Coaching that knows your name, your goals and your setbacks, and treats them like they matter, because they do.
Meet Matt
Matt Kerr
Training has always been fundamental to Matt's life. Through his twenties he worked out how to hit his health and fitness goals without giving up living, not compromising one for the other. That balance is exactly what he now coaches: results you can actually sustain.
Having coached across Hartley Wintney, Hook and Fleet, and spent time living and training in the Netherlands, Matt brings real range. Clients describe the same things again and again: energy, patience, and a knack for making people believe they can do more than they thought.
Meet Haaroon
Haaroon Ali
Haaroon started training to look better. What kept him going was everything else it gave him, a way to handle life's challenges, and a daily boost to his mental health and productivity.
That's the difference he wants clients to feel: not just the physical results, but the way training makes the rest of life easier to carry. Based in Colne, Haaroon extends the coaching online, proof that a great coaching relationship travels well beyond one postcode.
Why Two Coaches
Better together
Plenty of trainers work alone. We think two coaches is a genuine advantage for you, not a gimmick.
Between us we cover strength, technique, sport-specific conditioning and the mental side, so whatever you are chasing, someone here has done it and coached it. It also means the coaching travels: Matt anchors the in-person work around Hartley Wintney, Hook and Fleet, while Haaroon extends it online, wherever you are. Local roots, wider reach.
