# McFitter Personal Trainer & MHEC

Lesley McVicar runs McFitter, a personal training and mental health coaching practice based at Results Gym in Kirriemuir, Angus. With two decades of experience in the fitness industry, Lesley combines practical training expertise with specialised qualifications in mental health and exercise coaching, achieved since establishing the business in 2020.

The business serves individuals seeking support beyond conventional gym instruction. Lesley works with clients who want to build confidence in fitness settings and develop greater self-assurance in daily life. Her approach recognises that mental wellbeing underpins physical progress, reflected in her philosophy: "Fitter, Confident and Stronger. Mentally 1st and physically 2nd."

What distinguishes McFitter is its integrated focus on psychological and physical development. Rather than isolated strength or conditioning work, Lesley offers holistic coaching that addresses confidence barriers and mental health alongside fitness goals. Additional qualifications as a Seated Exercise Consultant and Exercise Referral Consultant expand her capacity to work with diverse client needs, including older adults and those referred through health services.

Her credibility is underscored by winning the Best Health and Fitness Award for Angus in 2023, validating her approach and impact within the local community. This recognition reflects genuine client outcomes and professional standing.

McFitter attracts those seeking a trainer who understands mental health's central role in sustainable fitness success—particularly valuable for individuals returning to exercise after periods of inactivity, managing anxiety, or rebuilding self-belief.
