I really look forward to training every week and highly recommend if you’re looking for a pt!
Svilen has transformed my attitude towards exercise.
If you're a beginner looking for a kind trainer with an unrivaled knowledge of health and fitness, stop looking: you've found your guy!
I've gone from a lifelong exercise hater to counting down the days before my next session: Svilen's training is that enjoyable and effective.
The sessions were enjoyable and tailored to the right level for me. Svilen is super knowledgeable and will help you get the results you want!
He is also very flexible; due to life issues I would have to cancel the night before and he was always understanding!
Overall I’m feeling and looking healthier so I am definitely going to continue my fitness regime with him - Thank you Svilen!
He has made a positive impact on my fitness, strength, weight loss and sports injury rehab- I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a personal trainer.
I would certainly recommend Svilen to anyone who is looking for a personal trainer.
About Me
With a lifelong passion for sports and competition, ranging from athletics, rugby, and football to volleyball, fencing, kickboxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, I’ve built a deep and diverse foundation in physical training.
Growing up I was always interested in pushing my limits and finding ways to gain a competitive edge, which naturally led me to explore a wide range of training methods. Over the years I’ve learned to keep what works, discard what doesn’t and refine my approach based on real-world performance and results. This mindset now defines my work as a personal trainer in Guildford.
I started coaching not only because I love how exercise makes me feel, but because I’m passionate about helping others unlock their full potential. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my clients grow stronger, feel better and accomplish things they once thought were out of reach.
My training goes far beyond delivering effective workouts, I provide ongoing motivation, tailored advice and a supportive environment where you feel valued, encouraged and capable.
My goal is to build a positive, inclusive space where people don’t just train, they thrive!

Apt Strength And Size focuses on developing muscle mass and strength using a full body approach.
Full body training limits the stress you put on the body and prevents imbalances that can happen by training a muscle group too much. You develop better movement qualities when training the body in its entirety and create more awareness of how the body moves through space resulting in more body control, balance, and stability.
There is a big emphasis on core strength, helping you to develop a strong and solid base. I’ll also include corrective exercises that work to bring balance to the body (imbalances affect everybody). This makes you less likely to get injured, and more likely to experience longevity in your training.

Not suitable for beginners.
Apt Athletic Advantage is perfect for anyone who wants to advance in their sport and become a more powerful, explosive and efficient athlete.
The main focus is the improvement of force absorption (teaching the athlete how to decelerate and efficiently transfer energy) and force production (teaching the athlete to accelerate and produce maximal force) through the use of tried and tested training methods, such as the French Contrast method and Tri-phasic training, that have proven to be reliable in improving sports performance.
This program is adjusted for off season and on season times using periodisation so you can start becoming a better athlete right now.

Svilen's personal training programme has worked wonders for my fitness and general well-being! As a 62 year old male with no previous experience of the gym, I wished to improve my fitness, endurance and strength following surgery.
After 6 months, the difference has surpassed my expectations. Svilen's knowledge, attention to detail in tailoring the programme to my specific needs, and his support have made all the difference. He provides both challenges and encouragement in a friendly manner.
He is patient, understands my limits and so tailors each session to concentrate on areas of weakness and makes sure I am training correctly. He takes time to explain the reason and benefits of each exercise. I would recommend Svilen to anyone looking for a personal trainer.
Highly recommended! I am pleased with the results of my targeted individual personal training sessions with Svilen.
