Lee Waters Personal Fitness

I started training in martial arts nearly 30 years ago, not imagining that all this time later, I would be making a career out ot it!

I’ve won medals and trophies at national and international level, and I retired from competition to concentrate on coaching – whether that’s world champions or people just looking to get fit and lose weight.

I’m a senior kickboxing and kung fu instructor at North West Chinese Kick Boxing, at the Universities of Manchester and Salford, and at other clubs in the Manchester Area, but martial arts isn’t my only passion – I want to make sure that every person who comes to me for personal training gets a personalised, challenging and achievable session, which will get them to where they want to be, and have fun on the way! 

Lee with Laura Wylde, 2x World Kickboxing Champion

Laura only started training 5 years ago, but has proved that with talent, the right guidance and training, and a champion’s attitude and will to win, great things can be achieved.  She has now won 2 x World Kick Boxing Gold Medals and is determined that they won’t be her last. Lee and Laura spend many hours training and you could join them – check out her testimonial and the Packages page!

Lee is fully approved and certified to give advice on Sports and Exercise Nutrition by the Health and Sciences Academy.

Working Out at Home and in the Garden

The importance of stretching

It’s the start of the session so we’re smiling

Who says holding the plank position for 5 minutes isn’t fun

Lee’s smiling but Laura hasn’t thrown a punch yet

Laura showing Pip a thing or two

Short lunges – we hate them but they work

Working on arm conditioning using weights

Building long lean muscle

Going old-school with a kettlebell

Abs – lets make it harder

Ah abs – everybody’s favourite

Balancing at the bottom of a press-up – the crossed feet make it harder

Nobody needs a groin strain

Fresh Air and Exercise

Exercise in the park

Good technique matters however heavy the weights

What? – press-ups as well??

Shorter more intense intervals burn more calories

Bend the legs slightly and tip the pelvis – your back will thank you

Don’t forget the triceps

Working Out at Home and in the Garden

3 feet by 6 feet is enough room to work out

It’s a classic because it works

Smiling because it’s nearly over

Stretching after some abs work

Ah! Jumping about with light weights – looks easy – try it and see

It’s a bit chilly but that won’t stop us

Laura Wylde (2 time World Kick Boxing champion):

I’ve trained with Lee for over 5 years now. He uses his experience to help me push my fitness to where it is needed for competitions. Sessions usually revolve around circuit training, weights, plyometrics and specific skills and techniques. He always tailors it specifically to my needs, identifying key areas and progressing the exercises as we go. I find he’s good at coming up with new things and manages to keep it interesting and challenging. He’s a really nice guy, will help anyone and gives fantastic moral support in and out of training. I couldn’t work with anyone else!

George Christopher Karystianis of Manchester:

“Lee is an excellent and friendly instructor with lots of knowledge and hands-on experience”

Lisa Withers from Derbyshire:

“I’ve been training with Lee since August and it’s been great – I’m back to being really fit after the birth of my son, and have lost 1.5 stones as well!  Lee’s got a vast store of knowledge and knows how to keep things interesting and challenging so that you don’t get bored and lose motivation.”

Matt Withers from Derbyshire:

“My wife had really great results with Lee, so I thought I’d try him out as well. I was impressed that he completely adapted his coaching style and exercises to suit me and my needs, which were totally different to my wife’s.”

“At your home, in your garden, workplace or local park, we can work anywhere!”
