Hey there —
It’s Tim and Adam from PTD.

In 2010, we combined our skills in Personal Training (Tim) and Software Development (Adam) to bring an idea to life that has grown into something more meaningful than we’d ever imagined.

It began in 2009, when Tim moved from London to Sydney with a 1 year visa. This meant leaving a full rota of Personal Training clients to start a new adventure. But finding local clients, while paying flat and gym rent quickly became a huge challenge and the year of working abroad become tough. As the year progressed, clients were coming in and debts were paid off, yet it was a bitter-sweet feeling. The eventual trip home would mean leaving everyone behind to start again.

Tim was keen to continue helping his Australian clients who'd worked so hard to get incredible results, and keep some income while in London, online coaching seemed the obvious answer. They all loved the idea, but how to deliver it?

At that time, nothing was available to effectively coach or assess clients online (established softwares were set up for beginner coaches and email, word docs and spreadsheets were never going to cut it). So together, we built the first version of PT Distinction. PTD began with the idea that online coaching should get amazing results and the best trainers should be able to help a lot of clients. We wanted to enable trainers to help clients achieve their best, from anywhere in the world.

In 2017 we linked up with some of world's premier sports app designers who's work includes apps for many international teams and associations, our team continues to grow every year. PTD today, is the combination of top level personal trainers working with world class designers and developers. We take enormous pride in being rated the number 1 software for personal trainers on Trustpilot, Capterra, Software Advice, Get App, yet our true measure of success comes from the success of each and every trainer utilising PT Distinction.
