Next Step Nutrition Ltd Reviews 34

Jonny is amazing! Working with him has been life changing. I thought I’d never be able to change. After a lifetime of eating battles and disorders, he has transformed my thought processes and my outlook on everything. He’s been there every challenge faced throughout this, offering gentle insights and reframes to my previous thinking. He’s also a really lovely, easy to speak to person who truely cares about making a difference to your life.

Anyone considering coaching with Jonny, just do it, you will never look back! Thank you Jonny.

I worked with Jonny for 2.5 years and during this time I learnt so much. Jonny’s approach is supportive yet realistic. I very much fell into the “I know what I should do, I just won’t do it.” He helped me to better understand what I could do to be the healthiest version of myself. He supported me to build up my fitness and confidence to get back into the gym post-Covid lockdown enabling me to discover I really enjoy lifting heavy weights. He helped me with practical tools and suggestions and I now manage my stress better and I’m not so reliant on emotional eating as my only tool to self soothe. Attempting changing lifelong habits alongside some challenging life experiences was tough and I’m still “on my journey” but I wouldn’t have come nearly this far without Jonny’s guidance and support. Definitely recommend working with him!

Jonny has been incredible, I deleted my fitness pal and felt a bit lost, I knew I needed more direction within my intuitive eating journey and Jonnys support was at the perfect time. He helped me identify a lot of disordered eating patterns I was still doing but the biggest thing that has impacted me was learning how to listen to my hunger and fullness cues. I struggled with panicking both when i was hungry and too full and had a lot of fear around food. Now i eat intuitively, food is like a non-issue most of the time. I don't binge anymore and old binge foods are now boring to me most of the time. Its crazy how much has changed.

Jonny is an excellent health coach. He is knowledgeable and passionate about fitness and nutrition but most importantly he creates a wonderful space for self growth. He is an empathetic listener and is always eager to learn new things and push his comfort zone and yours. As someone who struggles with an autoimmune disease, I always knew that Jonny would curiously listen to what I was going through (and the random treatments I was trying) and offer support. Working with Jonny helped me gain the little mindset shifts that have helped me learn to love my body and appreciate it for what it can do while also taking steps to improve in the areas I want to improve. Also never would have gotten into lifting without him and now I love it! Highly recommend working with Jonny - it will set you on the path of real and long lasting change in your health and wellness :).

I have worked with Jonny for several years, including our first chapter where we focused on weight loss through eating less and exercising more. Unfortunately, my weight bounced back like all the times before. Our last chapter, however, has been quite different. After thirty years of yo-yo weight, dieting, and having nearly every food moment associated with anxiety, Jonny has helped me transform my relationship with food and even my body itself. I no longer talk to myself in negative terms when I see myself in the mirror, I'm kinder to others who happen to be larger than me, and I no longer obsessively weigh myself every single morning with the emotional rollercoaster that accompanies it. I learned from him that "I can't hate myself into loving myself." While I was hoping for a reset, I gained something I wasn't expecting, a noticeable improvement in my mental health. Thanks Jonny!

I had a really positive experience with Jonny.
He helped me to appreciate and understand the relationships between nutrition, health, wellbeing and fitness. He helped me to solve a chronic issue of setting unrealistic goals,.and build pragmatic achievable programmes to suit my busy lifestyle. It's been quite the journey, of nearly two years, and along the way he's been nothing but kind,. approachable and helpful. He demonstrated not only a keen knowledge of the subject matter but also kindness and emotional intelligence along the way.

He's left me fully equipped with the knowledge and understanding I need to sustain this myself but I also know the door is always open should I have a question.
He really is one of a kind.

Thank you Jonny

Jonny has been in my corner through a frustrating injury recovery period over the past year or so, helping me now land into a much more varied and balanced routine involving sports, gym and time for other non-exercise hobbies as well. I enjoy training so much more with this variety, whilst also helping me manage various injuries as they flare up simply readjusting the pot of activities I do more/less of so I can stay active and feeling good, instead of catasrophising and skipping out exercise entirely for weeks due to disappointment and all or nothing thinking.

I’ve learned to observe the thoughts of ‘I should lose weight’ or ‘I can’t believe you can’t do this anymore!’ floating by, but they matter so much less to me now I have a more fulfilling life and enjoy more in the moment. Whether that means cooking a meal from scratch using full fat ingredients or picking up lunch out and not second guessing everything I choose for it’s protein content, I am more content and less mentally fried from basic decision making every day leaving more time and energy for the things I actually care about (friends, hobbies, work).

I now truly believe that I am capable of handling stress or other problems, without fearing feeling the negative emotions or consuming the entirety of the nearest baked goods aisle to distract me from them. I have a better control of all aspects of my life and monitoring my body and it’s signs for tiredness and what I need, even if it means turning down plans or skipping gym.

Looking back I couldn’t believe the difference in me from a year ago but those closest to me definitely notice - my flatmates recently commented how much more ‘free and content in myself’ I seem and that they’re glad to see me cooking and eating without having to weigh everything out first!!! 😂)

Thankyou Jonny for all your guidance, support and challenges to my ramble!

Jonny and I started to work together a year before my wedding. I was unhappy with how I looked and felt. Jonny and I worked on so much, but my main take aways were around intuitive eating. I've learnt to listen to my bodies hunger ques, taking time when I'm eating. The other big thing is honouring my emotions and feelings around exercise. I train frequently but when I don't feel like it or can't due to work, being ok with not training.
There were no strict meal plans or anything like that.
I reached my wedding happy with how I looked and felt amazing, with a healthy relationship with food and exercise. I'd really recommend working with Jonny, it's not an over night fix it's a change in mindset and takes time,but worth it.

Jonny and Next step nutrition will provide you with the best way to learn how to eat in a way that is healthy and compassionate.

You will be surprised to find out about intuitive eating and how this will transform everything you knew (or thought you knew) about dieting. In fact, you can forget about dieting as you will learn together with Jonny to eat in accordance to hunger cues only what you really need to get you going and fuel your exercises.

Forget about weight watchers, macros and all other dieting plans we have been force-fed by the industry. With this new approach to eating and food prepping you will arrive at a weight which is in accordance to your genetics, complexion and principles.

Most importantly, you will heal your relationship with food as you go along in the process which is the most importan thing.

Once you are comfortable with this approach to eating, you will see how you will never gain weight again as you would have, had you been following a generic diet plan.

Really give this a try as it will transform the way you think about food and exercise.

If you are reading this and thinking ‘ should I use Jonny’s services then the answer is yes’.

Jonny has helped to change my life by changing 25 years plus of negative thoughts and food habit’s.

He helps you to understand what food your body needs to make you feel energised and helps you to look at food in a different way.

This is the first time in 25 years that my thoughts are silenced around food. I spent 20 years plus disliking myself focused on weight. Now I am focused on the positives and focused on being healthy.

The exercises he shows you are so easy but really effective. He is really easy to talk to and makes you feel like you are invincible.

I will be forever grateful for the journey he’s taken me on and for his continued support.

My personal experience working with Jonny.

I was introduced to Jonny when I was training in CrossFit, he was highly recommended by another CrossFit member. I’m a big lad and have a wealth of experience in strength sports. However, in my new journey I was struggling with mobility and I wanted some assistance achieving a more rounded body work out as I was unable to attend all the classes due to an incredibly busy life.

Unfortunately, I obtained a shoulder injury that ended my CrossFit journey (hopefully not forever). I was very fortunate to be working with Jonny at the time or I would of just gave up, I came up with another plan which would of been impossible to achieve without him! Yes I ran an half marathon at 20 stone in 2.26 mins! Jonny provided me with an easy plan to follow and my running became much easier.

However, this wasn’t the best thing I came away after being mentored by JL, I took my top off in front of thousands of people and for the first time, I was proud of who I am!

I am super competitive and have succeeded in several sports - Powerlifting (world level), Boxing, athletics and football, point is I still have the same mentality at the age of 43 and want to be the best, I have been paranoid about how I look and what people think of me? JL has taught me to be happy with myself! I AM in good shape and as my wife calls me “I’m a big unit😀” This body of mine has achieved so much in life and just needed to be reminded!

The world is poisoned with social media, marketing about how we should look, I now look at life a different way and am much more mentally happier thanks to JL.

I will continue to watch Jonnys videos and hopefully one day, we can work together again and get me back into CrossFit.

Would I recommend Jonny - 1000% YES

Jonny has a really unique coaching style. Rather than give any strict routines or food plans, he very much ‘coaches’ better lifestyle changes and habits. He is a good listener and also made sure he really understood the challenges I was having. Because of this, I’ve developed good habits of cooking regular balanced meals, as well as having a much better attitude towards fitness and food. I have been a chronic dieter and yo-yo-ed weight significantly in the past, but I feel that Jonnys style of improving habits (rather than focusing on aesthetics) has really improved my confidence and self- compassion and helped me develop long term habits to improve my health. I would 100% recommend for anyone looking to create lifestyle changes and improve their relationship with food/ exercise.

Jonny has changed my life. I don’t say that lightly. He has helped me navigate how to stop thinking about food so that there’s finally room in my head and my life for joy.

I signed up with Jonny, on a whim, while still being coached as part of my role as head of content within a women’s coaching company. I was burned out, stressed out and spent my working time writing about dieting and personal time obsessing about it.

I worked with Jonny for 6 months and it was an entirely refreshing and amazing experience.

Jonny asked me to do this review 3 months ago and I’ve struggled. I’m a writer but I couldn’t seem to find the words. Which isn’t like me. I couldn’t quite grasp how to articulate the magnitude of being given mental space back after 25 years of psychologically strangling myself with constant thoughts of food, calories, exercise, my body fat, and how much I hated how I looked.

Then Christmas happened. And I didn’t gain the usual 20lbs over December. And now it’s January. And I’m not on some miserable diet. I’m not sitting in a spiral of shame, violently grabbing at my belly or brutally pulling at the skin on my thighs. I haven’t weighed myself in months or tracked a single calorie. I’ve stopped caring about this stuff because it truly doesn’t matter on the grand scheme of my life.

Through 1:1 calls, his brilliant client podcast and snappy master classes, Jonny taught me self compassion and unconditional permission to eat alongside being a trusted confidante who shared his own story and could relate to me 100%. Through coaching, I stopped binge eating quite easily - within 3 months. This was something that had plagued me my whole adult life. So to sit here in January, for the first time in my life not consumed by my body image or food feels liberating. I am free.

Jonny teaches you to reframe your relationship with your body, food and exercise and coaches you with care. If you have struggled with your health and you’re looking for someone to overhaul your habits, your negative self talk and your relationship with food, fitness and your body then Jonny is your guy.

Jonny is very in tune with his clients and their individual needs.

Jonny set me in a rhythm of eating to perform that lasted long after we finished coaching as I continued to improve my body comp, relationship with food and my understanding of why I over/under eat at certain occasions which has helped me look at food more objectively whilst also understanding it is okay to not eat like an olympic athlete 24/7.

Jonny is a premium service in a sea of crappy 12 week shred PT’s out there which makes the program require total buy in and consistency to do the hard work needed mentally to make lasting changes.

Jonny also helped me to raise my standards around fuelling for performance and helped me to understand the need to not be in a constant deficit when it is not working which drastically improved my Fitness and strength levels.

Jonny is a wonderful coach. His insightful and open-minded approach is hugely helpful. Jonny listens and engages with patience and understanding and his guidance has helped me to embrace the process and find greater self-compassion.

Would definitely recommend Jonny to anybody seeking to find balance and clarity in their approach to health and fitness.

I really appreciated the coaching sessions with Jonny. I got a lot out of working with him due to his highly empathatic and non-judgmental approach. He is both passionate about helping people and well informed which is a winning combination. He walked me through a heap of my issues with food, hunger, body image and dieting and I am still reaping the benefits from my time working with him

Jonny has completely changed my relationship with food for the better! Gone is the dieting mindset, instead I eat mindfully & intuitively. I have also learnt self-compassion. Highly recommend!

I first met Jonny in January 2022 when I attended a seminar he was hosting. I was blown away by his approach and honest take to fitness and the short seminar really helped me and resonated with me so much. From this I signed onto a free habit changing program, again I learnt so much and really started to rethink and change my habits around eating and training. After the week long habit changer ender I decided to join Jonny's academy, a decision I never regretted. Jonny's knowledge is invaluable and week by week I learnt new habits, felt happy in myself and even dropped some body fat. The app was easy to navigate and the workouts tailored to you and the results you wanted to achieve. After roughly 6 months in the academy I've decided to take a step back as I reach my third trimester of my first pregnancy. Just to mention Jonny was fabulous throughout my early pregnancy and adapted my workouts accordingly and helped me process and accept my changing body. The techniques I've learnt with Next Step Nutrition will stay with me for life and I would shout Jonny's praises from the rooftops if I could. I highly recommend Next Step Nutrition. I'll continue to be a keen follower on social media and also an advocate for him and his methods. Thank you Jonny!

I worked with Jonny for 6 months and I can honestly say the difference to way I approach food and nutrition has changed forever. I’d been through multiple fad diets which had quick results but were unsustainable or just didn’t work and I’d end up back at square one. One thing I really embraced about Jonnys approach was the baby steps to get me to my goal and not making too many changes too soon. I’m still not at my final goal but I’m happy because I’m slowly getting there without feeling like I’ve had to make drastic changes to my life. The word diet is out the window and I just stick to the basics of what Jonny taught.
I’d recommend anyone stuck in a rut of yo-yo dieting to give Jonny a shout as he speaks sense and you will see the results.

I’ve got nothing but great things to say about Jonny. He originally helped me with my nutrition to reach the aesthetic goals I had around training without any restriction or major lifestyle changes. Through working together for years he’s also helped me improve my overall relationship with food. We also switched up to performance-based goals and through close work together he helped me get the right fuelling strategy to run a sun 3 hour marathon. Jonny is empathetic, a great listener and a superb coach who doesn’t use any catch-all methods, it’s all totally personalised to what you want to achieve.
