Trainee Personal Trainer
Avril Clarke
Hello I’m Avril and I’m currently undertaking my level 3 personal trainer qualifications .
I’ve been strength training for the last 8 years having previously competed in a number of sports at competitive level.
I am heading into my third year competing in strongwoman and recently competed at national level for the UKNS PATHWAY finishing in the top 10 of masters athletes in the UK.
I enjoy the unique community of strongwoman and the support this has given me to teach others.
Personal Trainer and Strength Coach
Josh Howson
I became a Personal Trainer after accumulating a vast amount of knowledge and skills through a lot of experience since first stepping foot in the gym in 2012 and competing in Strongman since 2018. I have gained an outlook on the human body that I am keen to share with everyday people and improve their lives.

​The Strongwoman group is truely something special. It's a community of inspirational women first, and a gym class second. I've never had any confidence especially in the gym and being in this group every week is slowly helping that. I do things I never thought I would ever be able to and I get help and guidance from some of the best coaches in Manchester. Being a part of this group is truely one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've even entered a Strongwoman competition now which is saying a lot coming from someone like me. Thanks for making something so amazing!

I started at bionik in feb 2024, in past I couldn’t stay at a gym longer than a month but since starting at bionik I’ve managed to stay and enjoy going! The atmosphere in the gym is amazing and everyone is very helpful! Since being at bionik I made a debut in competing in strongwoman I was trained by a bionik pt who helped me with the training, members at the gym and other pts at the gym have been very helpful with my journey. It’s like being apart of one big gym family! I highly recommend going to Bionik if you are looking at starting at the gym, someone going back into fitness, arm wrestling, powerlifting or strongman/woman there’s something for everyone
