Excelling Fitness & Lifestyle is operated by Arron McCarthy-Gladstone and is based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

  • One-off training and nutrition plans

  • Introductory calls and general enquiries

  • Fitness, nutrition, mindset and lifestyle topics

The information available on this website is intended to help visitors understand the services offered by Excelling Fitness & Lifestyle.

Submitting an enquiry or booking a free Intro Chat does not create a coaching relationship, guarantee acceptance onto a programme or create a financial obligation.

The scope, duration, price, payment arrangements and responsibilities associated with any paid service will be confirmed separately before the service begins. Clients may also be required to accept a separate coaching agreement, complete appropriate consultation forms and provide relevant health information.

2. Health and fitness disclaimer

The content on this website is provided for general informational and educational purposes only.

It does not constitute:

  • Medical advice, diagnosis or treatment

  • Physiotherapy or injury-rehabilitation advice

  • Psychological or therapeutic advice

  • Medical nutrition therapy

  • Advice from a doctor, registered dietitian or other regulated healthcare professional

Website content should not be treated as a substitute for personalised advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

You should consult a doctor or another suitably qualified healthcare professional before beginning a new exercise, nutrition or lifestyle programme, particularly if you:

  • Have an existing medical condition

  • Are pregnant or have recently given birth

  • Have an injury, pain or physical limitation

  • Take medication that may affect exercise or nutrition

  • Have been advised to restrict physical activity

Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of information found on this website.

If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, contact the appropriate emergency service immediately.

3. Client responsibility and safe participation

Exercise and changes to nutrition or lifestyle can involve risks. These may include fatigue, discomfort, injury or the aggravation of an existing condition.

You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate and complete information about relevant health conditions, injuries, medication and limitations

  • Seeking medical clearance where appropriate

  • Following exercise instructions carefully

  • Using equipment correctly and safely

  • Stopping an activity if you experience unusual pain, dizziness, illness or significant discomfort

  • Seeking appropriate professional assistance where necessary

Information presented on the website is general and cannot account for your individual health, circumstances, abilities or needs.

Personalised recommendations will only be provided after an appropriate consultation and within the scope of the agreed service.

4. Nutrition information

General nutrition information provided on this website or through coaching is intended to support fitness, lifestyle and habit-based goals.

It is not intended to diagnose, treat or manage a medical condition and should not replace advice from a doctor, registered dietitian or another appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Anyone with a diagnosed medical condition, history of disordered eating, significant food allergies or other complex dietary requirements should obtain appropriate professional advice before making substantial dietary changes.

5. No guarantee of results

No specific result is guaranteed through the use of this website or participation in any service.

Fitness, weight, strength, health and lifestyle outcomes vary between individuals and may be affected by factors including:

  • Starting point

  • Health and medical circumstances

  • Consistency and adherence

  • Training experience

  • Nutrition

  • Sleep and recovery

  • Stress and lifestyle

  • Factors outside the control of Excelling Fitness & Lifestyle

Any goals, estimated outcomes or timeframes discussed are illustrative and are not guarantees.

Testimonials, photographs, reviews and client stories represent individual experiences. They do not promise or guarantee that another person will achieve the same or similar results.

6. Accuracy of website information

Reasonable efforts are made to keep the information on this website accurate and current. However, information may become outdated, contain errors or not be suitable for your individual circumstances.

No representation or guarantee is made that all website content will always be complete, accurate, current or available.

The website, its content and the services described may be updated, amended, suspended or removed where reasonably necessary.

7. Introductory calls

A free Intro Chat is an opportunity to discuss your goals, circumstances and potentially suitable services.

An Intro Chat:

  • Is not a medical consultation

  • Does not create a client or coaching relationship

  • Does not guarantee that a particular service will be suitable or offered

  • Does not create an obligation to purchase a service

Please provide reasonable notice if you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Excelling Fitness & Lifestyle may also cancel or rearrange a call where necessary and will provide as much notice as reasonably possible.

8. Separate service agreements

Paid personal training, online coaching and one-off plans are subject to the specific terms communicated before the service begins.

Those terms may include:

  • The scope and duration of the service

  • Fees and payment arrangements

  • Cancellation and notice requirements

  • What support and communication are included

  • Client and coach responsibilities

  • Delivery arrangements

  • Any applicable refund or rescheduling conditions

If there is a conflict between these website terms and a separately accepted client agreement, the separate client agreement will take priority in relation to that service.
