Your personal coach

 

My journey into the health and fitness industry came after spending 9 years as a Physical Training Instructor in the Royal Marines. The transition from this role to that of a Personal Trainer (PT) seemed the natural choice.

My time in the Marines taught me many skills, but what truly sticks out were 3 key things: 

  • the virtue of hard work, 

  • teamwork is essential for any level of success; 

  • You can do anything, just not everything, with the right skills, attitude and people around you

Since leaving the Marines, these three guiding principles have become my mantra and are something I look to impart on everybody I coach.

After spending less than 6 months as a PT, I realised that to make a real difference with people, I needed to further my knowledge in nutrition, eventually deciding to enroll in Nutritional Therapy Diploma with Institute for Optimum Nutrition.

4 years and approximately 4500 study hours later, I qualified as a Nutritional Therapist (NT) and began practising as both a PT and an NT.  

When the pandemic struck, I made the move into the online coaching space and it was a game changer for clients from day 1. 

By no longer being constrained by time we had in the gym together, I was able to help my clients, not only improve their exercise consistency and competence, but help them develop strong habits and routines around their nutrition and lifestyle that helped them become leaner, more confident, energy-filled humans from the moment they started the programme.

I have continue to invest heavily in my development as a coach by keeping up with the latest research and practices in health and fitness, but also delving heavily into the psychology of habits, motivation and change.  

It is this insight that I believe makes me to stand out from the rest. 

When you work with me it is not about what you achieve in 6 months. It is what you achieve in 6 months, but then benefit from for the rest of your life!
