About this site
Editorial standards
How I write, check and update the articles in the learning centre, so you know you can trust what you read and act on it.
Last updated: 15 October 2026
The short version
- Every article is written for owners of independent gyms and fitness studios, and reviewed by me before it's published.
- Articles are drafted with AI help, then I edit them and add my own experience.
- Prices and product details are checked against the supplier's own website.
- Affiliate links are always labelled, and never decide what I recommend.
Who writes the articles
I'm Andrew Wallis. I've worked in fitness for more than 25 years: on the gym floor, as a personal trainer, building Manx Boot Camps on the Isle of Man and WA Boot Camps for Women in Perth, and coaching gym and studio owners since 2012. The advice in these articles comes from that work and from what I see working for the owners I help today.
When I share a client's story, I either leave out anything that could identify them or I have their permission to name them.
How I use AI
Articles are drafted with AI help. I then review and edit every one, change anything I'd do differently, and add my own experience and examples. Nothing is published until I'm happy it's accurate, useful and sounds like me. I make the decisions about what to recommend; AI helps me write it up faster.
Checking facts and prices
Prices, features and other product details are checked against the supplier's own website, and articles that compare products say when they were checked. Prices change often, so always confirm the current price with the supplier before you buy. Where a figure comes from someone else's research, I say where it comes from.
Updates and corrections
Each article shows when it was last updated. I review articles regularly and update them when something changes, such as a price, a feature or a better way of doing things.
If you spot a mistake, please let me know. I'll check it and, if it's wrong, correct it promptly.
Affiliate links and independence
Some articles may include affiliate links. If you buy through one, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Any article with affiliate links says so clearly. Commissions never decide what I recommend: I only recommend tools and services I'd suggest to a client anyway, and I'll tell you when I think something isn't worth it.
Nobody pays to be featured or reviewed on this site.
