Hi, I’m Valentine Rawat (or Val), a personal trainer in Leeds with over 20 years of experience helping clients become stronger and more body confident. I specialise in strength training, weight loss, and fitness coaching, working with an array of individuals, including high-net-worth clients and goal-oriented professionals. I’ve trained professional athletes and appeared on TV programmes as a go-to coach.
My journey started at age 7, inspired by Bruce Lee, and since then, I’ve trained in martial arts, bodybuilding, CrossFit, and kettlebells. I now focus on creating hybrid fitness programs that fit your lifestyle, whether you train at home, the gym, or your workplace.
With a background in Sports Therapy, injury prevention is key in my approach. I’m well-connected with physiotherapists, musculoskeletal experts, and orthopaedic consultants, ensuring that any rehab needs are fully supported.
Whether you’re aiming to lose weight, build strength, or boost confidence, I’ll create a plan that’s enjoyable and sustainable. From high performers to athletes in sports like MMA and rugby, I’ve helped clients of all backgrounds reach their goals.
If you’re ready to feel stronger, fitter, and more confident, let’s get started! I offer both personal training in Leeds and online coaching. Get in touch to arrange your consultation.
“Valentine is unquestionably one of the best personal trainers and physical therapist in the UK. He is a master of fitness motivation and possesses a rare combination of deep fitness knowledge and a terrific ability to communicate what will change your perspective on fitness. His insights are highly valued by the fitness industry and now in the media, and his live presentations and workshops are not to be missed. In Jan 2012 Valentine was hired for SKY1 show Obese: A YEAR TO SAVE MY LIFE as the personal trainer for Jack Gorny and with expert guidance lost close to 12 stones. Following his success with Jack, he was recalled for the second series to train Sarah Le Broq in a show called FAT: A FIGHT FOR MY LIFE.” Eyeworks Production Team
