Who is an Online Personal Trainer?

An online personal trainer is a fitness coach that can provide health and training advice online. So whether you’re based in the UK or on a different continent, you can access my expert fitness advice and program, whenever you need it.

What Are the Benefits of an Online Fitness Coach? There are several benefits of hiring an online fitness coach like me. Here are some:

Accountability

Mike Calpin – Best Online Personal Trainer in the UK

Many people struggle to stick to fitness routines due to a lack of accountability, which is why I’ve designed an online nutrition and exercise course to provide consistent support, no matter where you are.

By joining my programme, you gain access to online training software that allows you to upload progress photos and track weight loss and BMI through detailed charts.

If you ever feel unmotivated, this software ensures you can access your progress and my advice anytime, helping you stay on track toward your fitness goals.

Highly Personalised

Mike Calpin – Best Online Personal Trainer in the UK

Every person’s weight loss journey is unique, influenced by factors like genetics, medical conditions, sleep, and stress levels—not just food and exercise.

I provide tailored advice that aligns with your specific goals, considering all aspects of your journey during weekly check-ins.

If any adjustments are needed, I’ll offer instant, actionable advice, easily accessible through your online account to keep you on track.

Online Recipe Book

Mike Calpin – Best Online Personal Trainer in the UK

I provide simple, easy-to-follow nutrition advice and delicious recipes I personally use to help you achieve your goals.

When you sign up, you’ll gain access to recipe books with over 500 ideas, including vegan and vegetarian options, making it easier to find meals you enjoy and can stick to long-term—even after completing my programme.

At the start of your journey, I’ll review a typical week of your activity and nutrition to understand your habits. This allows me to offer personalized, tailored advice to ensure you stay on track and reach your goals.

Whether you are...

Old or young, male or female, overweight, underweight, looking to build some muscle, lose fat or simply tone, improve your health and energy levels. Your start point does not matter. I will provide you with a personalized nutrition and exercise program covering either a 6 or 12-week period. All you have to do is follow my weekly directions in your online check-in.

Check out a few other people I have assisted in their fitness journeys and what they have to say about Mike Calpin online fitness training program.

Before and after image

"I feel so much better after doing 2 enrolments with Mike and finally feel good in my clothes :) I am not were I want to be yet but with a bit of hard work and patience I know I will get there, and it's all because of MIke and Nat's support...i have lost 24 lbs plus over 8 inches off my waist, 6 inches off my glutes and 4 inches off my thighs and 2 sizes in clothes and couldn't be happier. My health in general is much better now. I'm a mum of 3 children and now I can play and run around with them without being tired all the time :) ! "

Natasha Barclay

"I can't thank Mike enough, The VTS has worked perfect for me. It has been a lifestyle change and given me the structure and guidance I needed with regards to both nutrition and workouts. I enjoy eating well and leading a healthy lIfestyle and Mike has allowed me to do this. I wanted to achieve weight loss in my first enrolment which I have done, I am continuing with a Mike to allow me to reach my end goal, so far i have lost 6 inches off my waist"

"When I started my enrolment 12 weeks ago I expected to be in the gym twice a day and to be eating food which made me miserable, however I couldn't have been further from the truth. I have enjoyed the training and nutritional elements of the programme and feel so much better for it. My weight has dropped below 12 stone (which I haven't been since my early 20's) and i have lost almost 8 inches from my waist! I feel so much fitter and stronger. Thanks Mike for your guidance over the last three months, its been first class!"

Online Personal Training FAQ

What Is Online Personal Training?

My online personal training and coaching packages offer a convenient and affordable way of reaching your health and fitness goals and will also help you to stay on track. Based on the information you provide me with regarding your lifestyle, ability level, access to equipment and goals, I will design a personalised exercise and nutrition plan for you to follow whether at home or from your gym.

All this will be done through an online check-in with me using my Virtual Training System software; a powerful tool, that includes a weekly dialog, review, advice, guidance and support, progress pictures & charts, health calculators, recipe books, and the important accountability that most people need, helping you to stay on track and get the results you want. You just need internet access and your phone, tablet, laptop or pc.

Why Is This Different From Other Online Personal Trainers?

I’ve been pioneering Online Personal Training since January 2014 with my own unique custom built platform.

Work started on my Online training platform around 2012, after receiving enquiries from people from around the world asking for help, this was long before Online Personal Trainers were really heard of.

I wanted to be able to help and knew that emails back and forwards wasn't good enough, so together with a great developer, we designed my custom built software that I still use today.

Using the experience and expertise that I have gained over the past 40 plus years - I've now helped thousands of clients achieve remarkable results. You can see some of my clients throughout my website and in TRANSFORMATIONS. I deliver personalised coaching and help fast track you to your goals.

Is Online Personal Training as Effective as In-Person Training?

Absolutely. Before I started helping clients Online, I worked in various Gyms and Health Clubs. Many of these clients that I helped looked me up years later and then tried my Online Personal Training system. Feedback was that It was better than face to face training, as it provided more accountability, continuous support and more detailed advice - that could be referred back to. Combined with graphs and progress charts to help motivate and keep them on track, wherever they were. Plus no more travelling to see me!

What Happens If My Present Situation Changes?

Life can be unpredictable, I appreciate that. My Online program is personalised and flexible. So if there's any changes along the way, I simply adjust your program to fit your new routine. Wether it's due to illness, or work and different shifts, family commitments and holidays etc. Just let me know by email, I'm here to help.

If ever I need to speak to someone can I?

Yes just send an email to hello@mikecalpin.com and I personally will normally get back to you the same day.

What Is The Difference Between the "Lite" "Express" & "Premium" Options? & Which option should I choose?

Lite, Express & Premium members all get access to nearly identical content with one main exception. Express & Premium members receive weekly personalised advice from me on both exercise and nutrition. Lite members have full access & 12 months membership to the VTS software & all resources, including 100's of healthy tasty recipes, macronutrient & health calculators, a food, training, sleep & alcohol tracker, macros guide, progress charts & graphs, weekly check-in to upload progress pictures, picture gallery plus a weekly weight & measurements record. So basically the only difference is i don't reply to the Lite members weekly check-in and don't provide any on going personalised exercise and nutrition advice. Which option should you choose?

If you want me to advise you what to do exactly every week in your online check-in, then go for the Express or Premium membership. If you would like full access to the VTS software & use all the resources, calculators, tracker, graphs, recipes etc and are happy with self progress tracking & weekly check-in only with no weekly guidance from me, and you want to save money then use the Lite membership option. You can always upgrade to either Express or Premium membership which includes my weekly advice. All Lite members also receive a £10 discount voucher they may redeem against the 6 week Express or 12 week Premium memberships during their 12 months membership.

Do I Need To Go To A Gym Or Can I Exercise At Home?

You don’t need access to a gym or equipment. Many of my clients train from home and experience amazing results without any equipment. Depending on your start point, goals and ability level some basic equipment could be useful. For example a pair of adjustable dumbbells, maybe a basic weights bench and an exercise bike or rower. I do only provide weekly exercise advice for the Express and Premium Options. Not for the LITE option.

Will I Have To Starve Myself?

No - not at all. Most of my clients are surprised at the amount of tasty food that they do eat, while still reaching their goals. Starving yourself is not going to be sustainable long term, and Is not necessary.

Can I Still Drink Alcohol?

Yes It's possible to still drink alcohol following my program 😃

Will It Take Forever To See Results?

No - Most clients see some amazing results in as little as 6 weeks. There's some amazing 6 weeks transformations on my website.
