My name is Bobbijoe Edwards. I run a boxing gym in Bowlers Exhibition Centre – Trafford Park (Primal Academy). I have boxed for over 6 years ranking number 1 in the amateur division area, of East Lancashire and Cheshire for 6 seasons running, and number 10 in the country representing England. I also qualified as an ABA finalist. I have been in the corner supporting both Chris Eubank Senior and Junior in their careers.

I have been a personal trainer for over 10 years, at several gyms across Manchester such as David Lloyd Health Club for 5 years. During that time, I took the lead and overseen by the Daily Telegraph Challenge, which consisted of a number of different fitness events, such as rowing, running, weightlifting, swimming and the bleep test, finishing 7th in the country.

Alongside my personal training career, I have had several other occupations, which varied from being a chef for 12 years, to having played extras on TV for Coronation Street. I thrive on pushing individuals to their limit, watching them grow mentally and pushing through boundaries they never thought they could get through. There’s nothing better than when I see someone who believes in themselves to test their resolve.

Step in the groove and move!
