BAYLEY GARNHAM – PERSONAL TRAINER
“I have an opportunity to help change people’s lives for the better, and I won’t take that for granted.”
If you ask me why I have such a deeply rooted passion and unwavering commitment to being your personal trainer, I would give you that answer. From my own experiences, I understand how much of a benefit it is to have someone beside you on your lifelong commitment to your health and training is.
This person needs to be someone that carries the personality and values which you can trust with not just your physical well being but also your mental and emotional, who you can relate with and build a meaningful and positive relationship in and out of training, who makes you realise that when it comes to your training no amount of communication and questioning is off limits. These are the personality traits and values that a good personal trainer will carry, which I possess and constantly work to show my clients.
So, who’s the person who will be with you alongside your lifelong commitment to yourself?
I am your person.
Let me tell you, all of the above is genuinely me, my values and how I carry myself when working with my current clients and working with you. It comes from my own experience as a teenager with a neurological learning disorder who had a coach who was the first person outside of that teenager’s life to commit to teaching him how to look after his health. To commit his time in and out of training to building a meaningful and positive relationship with him where I could trust him and know that no amount of questioning and communication is off limits and use the gym and training to become a better person overall.
Hi there, my name is Bayley Garnham.
I am a personal trainer, group fitness instructor and strength and conditioning coach with a Bachelor’s degree in Sport and Recreation, Majoring in Sport and Exercise Science and notably a finalist nomination in the 2021/2022 Exercise New Zealand for Up and Coming Personal Trainer and named the top ‘Up and Coming Personal Trainer in Auckland’.
The awards demonstrated to top exercise professionals and co-operations my continuous learning and improvement and how it benefits my clients and the industry. These have allowed me to safely and effectively work with a wide variety of clientele.
As a Strength and Conditioning coach, I work with youth and senior New Zealand representative athletes in Swimming, Waterpolo, Sailing, Rugby, Para Triathlon and professional dancers. My background as an athlete comes from six years of training and competing in Olympic weightlifting at a national level, so I know what it takes to get the best results for your chosen sport.
As a Personal Trainer, I have and continue to train and work with various clients. These include youth/teenagers as young as eight years old with and without physical and neurological differences, e.g., Autism, Dyspraxia, Cerebral Palsy and visual impairments (Blindness). Other areas include injury rehabilitation (knee and hip replacements) and older individuals, the eldest being 89. While those are speciality areas, I also work with any and everyone who is just looking to get stronger, develop healthier habits and become more confident in the gym.
As someone who has Dyspraxia, which is a neurological learning disorder alongside my passion for training people, I am passionate about spreading awareness for neurological and physical conditions. I have partnered with SPELD New Zealand and the Dyspraxia Support Group of New Zealand to provide webinars with SPELD for families around the country and continue to communicate with families one-on-one, spreading awareness for the benefits of physical activity.
I want you to learn why specific training methods work for you and give you the education and confidence to apply them to your personal goals, no matter what they are.
Whatever your reason for coming to the gym, I’m ready to support you and help you get the most out of each workout!
