Our Trainers

WALTER MEDLICOTT, CO-FOUNDER AND PT/SPORTS COACH

My name is Walter Medlicott, and I’m the co-founder of Abs-Solute Health & Fitness. I’m a fully qualified personal trainer and sports coach currently obtaining my National Diploma in Sport. This covers Physiology in Sport, Fitness & Training Programming, and Sports Nutrition & Injuries.

Anything sports-related has always been a passion of mine. I’ve been involved in many team and individual sports, including football, tennis, and golf. I’ve been fortunate to have England College football trials and grading in tennis; we won’t mention golf. Over the years, I’ve done all aspects of gym training, whether it’s weightlifting, CrossFit, gym classes, or cardio training.

My goal is to help you on your physical journey to achieve what you desire. This could be weight accountability, muscle building, better nutrition, or general fitness. The gym isn’t just about losing weight. As a family man, I understand you sometimes get pushed to the back of the line when it comes to your needs, so we can work at times that suit you.

You can contact me on 07368 336839 or pop into the gym for a chat.

I’m Emma, the owner of Empower Fitness. I predominantly run Small Group Personal Training sessions at Absolute Health & Fitness. I specialise in resistance training, Pilates, and calisthenics. You can usually find me hanging from a bar, chalky-handed, or on my Pilates mat!

Empower Fitness is rooted in community. It is one of my core values as a coach, and I, for one, have seen the benefits of building connections with people who lift you up and encourage you to push harder.  My sessions are for every woman. We are one regardless of age, fitness level or prior experience. You will be guided through each session, ensuring that every time you leave the gym, you feel stronger and more capable than the previous time.

TAMMI BUNN – PT

My name is Tammi, and I am a 49-year-old mum of three with 15 years of experience as a personal trainer. I’ve trained in military gyms for 3 years, taking rehab for the army and mother-and-baby fitness classes for army wives while their husbands were on deployment.

I moved to England at 39, where I worked in various private and council gyms. I am a Level 3-certified personal trainer specialising in ETM (Exercise To Music), Olympic Lifting Level 1 and various fitness classes. I have gone on at the age of 40 to compete competitively as a powerlifter at a high level, with accomplishments including:

GPCGB MS1 British Champion 🏆 2017
GPCGB MS1 GB EUROPEAN Champion 🏆 2018

I retired at 43 but am now back competitively training at 49. I just retained a title in powerlifting this year, breaking four British records (GPCGB MS2 2024).

DAVID MARRIOTT – PT

I’ve spent 28 years in the fitness industry, doing everything from training military recruits to making it easier for people to get out of the bath. I am a no-nonsense coach who will get you where you want to be. I’m not fluffy and not for the easily offended. I trained as a PTI in Her Majesty’s Royal Air Force and qualified as a personal trainer 28 years ago.

I am also qualified to teach most national sports. This allows me to work with sports-specific athletes to further their game, linking training and movement with their chosen sport. I am here for progress, not for pampering. I bring a wealth of knowledge about rehab and recovery, whether sport-related or not. All I ask is that you give your best effort in our personal training sessions.

SCOTT BLOOMFIELD – PT

Health and fitness go beyond lifting heavy weights—they’re about moving efficiently, preventing injury, and maintaining strength for life. By combining functional movement with traditional strength training, I aim to design an effective, well-rounded training programme that helps the body adapt, builds lasting strength, improves mobility, and makes the most of your time in the gym.

This approach is always tailored to your specific goals, ensuring that your training aligns with your personal needs while maintaining a focus on long-term health and performance. Sessions are available in 1-1, 2-1 formats, with app-delivered programming also available.
