Who am I?

My professional career in fitness began 4 years ago when I started working as a full-time Coach, Head Weightlifting Coach and Head Strength & Conditioning Programmer at a CrossFit gym. However, my energy and passion for fitness and physical challenges sparked from a very young age, as well as my love for a demanding mental challenge.

​

Ask me to climb a rope, lift a heavy sandbag, swim in a freezing cold lake, race my girlfriend in a Daily Telegraph wordsearch, or solve an irritating word riddle and you'll find me in my element!

​

On top of all of this, I'm a huge lover of sport and competition. My sporting background of county-standard rugby, CrossFit, football, tennis, skiing and golf enables me to identify the specific requirements needed to help elevate your sports performance through distinct exercises and programming regimes.

​

My gym is just a 15 minute walk from Harpenden train station. It is here where the madness, the fitness, the challenges and bettering-of-oneself unfold.

What drives me?

Like most avid exercisers, I get a buzz from finishing a workout. However, I believe the greatest reward comes from surpassing what you thought you were capable of in those tough moments of a workout and saying: "Wow. I can't believe I did that. I wanted to stop but I never gave up." This feeling of surprise and accomplishment is what I strive to recreate for my clients. The feeling of victory and success you get in the gym (whether it's once, twice or up to six times a week) has an enormous compounding effect on our mental health, self-belief and confidence for life outside the gym.

 

My sole drive and passion as a personal trainer is to help guide and challenge you to become the strongest, fittest and most mentally tough you have been in years... OR EVER! I want you to enjoy the process, celebrate and revel in the noticeable improvements which bring you ever-so closer to your goals.

​

Let's face your physical goals! Whether you want to perform your first pull up, prepare for a hike, lose 5 kilos, squat the most you have ever lifted, or run for 5 minutes without stopping, we will get there together!
