Laidbarelifestylecoaching Reviews 

Real experience and happy to provide screenshots of WhatsApp messages exchange - proof is in the pudding! Facts and not out of spite and petty, to warn others who may be in the same disposition - not in the right headspace (he, himself has said - he is not a therapist but would act as one but has taken a certificate of some sort to attend as a mental and life coach) to make judgement calls and have relied on his service and only to be taken advantage of.

Been brutally honest from the get-go that the struggle is lack of self discipline and motivation (mind over matter) to even considering professional mental help first since mundane task of getting out of bed is a hard push most days and had been told that can be too difficult and too much of work to handle.

Sales talked with using personalisation approach by bringing up own struggles with depression which resonated with and gave the benefit of the doubt that for sure have an understanding with the painful reality of having to drag oneself out of the rut.

1st week of check-in, GDPR was breached and despite having questioned prior to signing up and paying upfront full payment - if there are other employees working with and for him, reassured he is the sole person to access my data - left in a limbo and with no choice or say, announced of getting married and will be away on that 1st week, with someone never met or agreed to work with or have my data accessed be filling in for him - what is one expected to do/say/react and respond when used the special occasion and had to abide by and bite my tongue, shrugged it to the side and yet again, another chance given.

Expressed doubt of things not working out as one hoped or expected, how does that full upfront payment and refund processes work? A hard never experienced it as the response - which should have alarmed as a red flag but had to give it a try and chance it, why not? Right?

It has been brought up month on in since then as a bad habit of ghosting phases as coping mechanisms, yet deflected and defended that these doubts are common and to use as motivation.

Communication is either mass and sent out as group messages for either a group chat (never in) for supposed supportive community along with automated email reminders for weekly (not bi-weekly as stated on his website) and motivational quotes/memes from IG as spam repost to WhatsApp messages is the method to ‘a holistic approach’.

Check-in calls are time limited and not according to the client’s needs. Mostly held at home but never private with either kids or wife jumping in the picture in the background.

Tailored one-on-one coaching? When told and shared that one can and has been told to be too much and too difficult to work and handle, reassured - experienced with others have been worse by hoovering over and sending multiple messages in a day, polar opposite with lacklustre in communication and missed check-ins yet no bother in making an effort to understand or support in making changes to his approach was never considered.

His supposed efforts of reaching out is yet again, sending quotations post or motivational IG reels? Feels one-sided with check-ins and onus is on the client but when client is unreachable and unresponsive, coach goes dead silent as his approach?

Since last year, no efforts to make amicable solution or contact to address the refund dispute. Has not made communication to understand why check-ins are missed or supposed support to be held accountable by going silent and taking in free income with minimal work (shared meal and workout plans, easily attainable these days via AI or on YouTube for free).

Now getting silent treatment with the service supposed to be continuing and yet support was either never existent or has now discontinued.

Pretty much, handed him free labour with doing nothing week in and out for months and yet, no actions on his end to push and support nor result into making changes to his approach or address the refund dispute, clearly scammed into with lacklustre support.

Additionally, been fishing for reviews from clients so hardly most of the positive feedback here are genuine and mainly pushed to act upon and leave a good review.

Lastly, had asked on many occasions with how can he help when one cannot even help themselves - no answer and left to ponder. Has given plenty of idle time to reinvent his tailored package to assist, support and coach yet failed to provide. Service not fully provided for what one has paid, not even bothered to come to an amicable agreement to somewhat partial refund on what he has only done and accomplished - copied and pasted meal and workout plans from AI or online (easily outsourced) and attended less than 5 video/phone calls which lasted about an hour max.

Lotan has changed who I am as a person... Not just physically but mentally. Signing up to his plan is the best decision I've ever made. Not only did he design a custom workout plan, tailored to my strengths and goals, alongside a varied meal plan to help me take the stress out of eating and staying in a calorie deficit, he also provided the support and encouragement to help me hit my targets. With frequent communication and weekly video calls, he's always there to answer any questions or just to check in with how you're feeling. He explains everything so clearly and takes the thinking and stress out of it, so the only thing left for me to do is enjoy it... And I do! Who knew getting fit could be such fun!? I fully recommend signing up to Laid Bare Lifestyle Coaching. The only thing you'll regret is not doing it sooner.

Really good and useful service.

Whilst training with Lotan, he created custom tailored work out plans based on my measurements, goals and strengths.
He provided frequent communication and support, encouraging me on weeks I felt I couldn't manage my workouts.
He also provided meal recipes and ideas which were really useful in introducing me to healthier alternatives of my day to day meals. Even once training finished with Lotan, I can take the experience away that I learned and utilise it in my health journey going forwards.

I've been with Lotan for 2.5years and it's been one hell of a journey! He's changed my mindset on food and fitness, helped me find my love for exercise and encouraged the best lifestyle choices for me! All the advice and support he's given has been tailored to me, which is what is so great, all of his approaches are so individualised! No matter the hurdles I've thrown at him; pregnancy, long term injuries, etc, he's always steered me towards the best path! I certainly haven't been easy to coach at times, but he's absolutely smashed it! A coach, a safety blanket, a lifeline; he really has changed my life!

Absolutely brilliant coach, fantastic training, all meals and exercises built for each individual person and I couldn’t rate him high enough!
Experience had from 3/12/24 - 3/8/25

Life-Changing Coaching – Thank You, Lotan!
Working with Lotan has truly been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. I came to him feeling fed up and frustrated after years of trying fad diets and unsustainable workout plans that never really stuck. What I found instead was something completely different — real support, honest guidance, and a process I could finally trust.
Lotan is not just a lifestyle coach — he’s a genuinely kind, encouraging, and deeply supportive person who shows up for you, and helps you show up better in your own life. Since starting with him, I've not only lost a significant amount of weight (with more to go!), but I’ve gained something far more valuable: my energy, my happiness, and my confidence.
I now approach life with a whole new attitude. I feel more present, more balanced, and genuinely excited about the journey I’m on. Lotan’s coaching isn’t just about quick fixes — it’s about creating lasting change with good energy, consistency, and a clear vision. He’s honest when you need it, motivating when it’s tough, and always in your corner.
If you're tired of spinning your wheels with things that don’t work, I can't recommend Lotan highly enough. Trust the process — you won’t regret it.

The best decision I ever made ! Changed my entire outlook on life and health - seriously! It’s made me look at food and life style choices in a completely different way. Moreover it’s made me fall back in love with exercise for a healthy mind body and soul. It’s amazing what you think is working just isn’t. These small
Changes will be with you for life.
Lotan is such a good coach, and always there to answer any questions had. He’s so supportive and picks you up when you need it. Can’t wait to continue the journey I am on to reach my goals . Thankyou Lotan!

Lotan had great positive energy and is full of knowledge.
The training plans and food plans are catered specifically to me and really help me get the most out of my experience. Really pleased with how far I've come already and pumped to see how far he can take me!

Lotan is an exceptional fitness coach—knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in your progress. Thanks to his guidance, I’ve made meaningful changes to my lifestyle and fitness routine that have led to visible results. He tailors advice to your goals and keeps you motivated every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Wow what can I say, Lotan has been more than just a coach to me, whilst he has been a coach but I would rather use the term friend my cancer returned, so I had to take some time off, but he still stayed with me checking in on me, and when I felt strong enough to return he was my biggest cheer leader, don’t understand an exercise he will explain in a simple term, he is always just a phone call away, he really one in a million, and I don’t want to stop having him as a ‘coach’

If you have a off day, his always there to help you get back on track he doesn’t tell you off, his honestly just great you won’t regret getting onboard with Lotan

I was wanting to get back on the fitness healthy lifestyle since having children and losing all motivation when it came to exercising. I bit the bullet and reached out to Lotan and the rest is history. He has enabled me to get my motivation back and given me the accountability and tools to reach my goals. With weekly FaceTime calls, personalised eating plans, gym workouts and he is always readily contactable if I have any questions! I could not recommend him highly enough!!

Amazing support really wants to help me improve lifestyle and life changes brilliant at supporting gym sessions and food advice and giving you motivation to battle on and suceed he is a true gent and I can honestly say he feels like a friend now that I could confide anything in and listen to the advice he gives, you would never regret choosing him to help improve your life patha nd succeed your goal, he's a star 🌟

Lotan and Kelly are amazing!
Such lovely people which will help you with anything.
Nothing is too much for them.
Id definitely recommend signing up, you won’t be disappointed! 😊

Lotan coaching is 2nd to none. At 53 I started with Lotan to get more advice and guidance and that is what I got. You get weekly checkins and weekly FaceTime calls along with a nutrition plan to meet your needs with a workout plan. Lotan listens to your goals, lifestyle and adapts the plan accordingly. Any questions and motivation needed along the way are answered quickly through WhatsApp his personal approach to coaching is encouraging. I would recommend Lotan to anyone wanting to change their lifestyle mindset and fitness. I now love the gym and have other gym users comment on my progress. A place I didn’t think I would be.

Im so glad i started my journey with Lotan. He is an incredible coach, he always knows exactly what to say to keep me motivated and on track. Living with Adhd has been very difficult for me especially concerning consistency, thankfully Lotan shares a similar mindset and has helped me with this from not only personal experience but his "thinking outside the box" advice!
I have kicked unhealthy habits, i enjoy drinking water, i no longer depend on alchol at social events, my confidence has rocketed- Overall i am a much healthier person inside and out and i believe it just takes having a friend that believes in you by your side and that is exactly what you get with Coach Lotan.
Thankyou with all my heart! Xxx

I have been signed up for 5weeks now and it’s the best thing I have ever done for ME. I managed to lose weight before joining so it was more about changing habits and improving my body and mind, and Lotan has definitely delivered! I have a hectic life and work constant nights so everything is tailored specifically to you. You will not find support and encouragement quite like your weekly calls and the group chat too. Loving it!

I knew I wanted to make some serious changes in my life but couldn't seem to get them fully going, until I met Lotan.
Lotan instantly put me at ease, and with his eating and exercise programme I quickly became to love the gym and realised it was the piece of the puzzle missing in my life.
With weekly video calls and inclusion on a WhatsApp group with women with simular personalities and goals as me, you constantly feel supported and you are never alone.
The enthusiasm Lotan brings is infectious and you can't help but push yourself that bit more.
If you are unsure I would say just go for it, trust me you will have no regrets, apart from not doing it sooner! ✌🏻

I have never had a fitness coach before so I was a little bit unsure, but weight has always been an issue for me and after having my little girl I was at my biggest! Lotan was really supportive from the consultation and throughout. I have bene able to be open and honest and received the same back. He is very passionate and dedicated to his clients. I have a more positive relationship with food, exercise and better mindset. I am very grateful I found lotan and highly recommend him.

I’ve been working with Lotan and team for a couple of months now and I cannot recommend them enough. Always there to guide and support. Will tell you what you need to hear not what you want to hear.
Great workout and food plans, which are changed when I need to. I have a long journey ahead of me but I’ve made significant changes in my lifestyle and attitude thanks for Lotan.

The group chats and challenges are also really inspiring.
