A BIT ABOUT ME

 I first stepped into the gym on a rehab program for an injury that I received playing rugby at 15. My initial goal was to repair my hamstring and then build up my strength, power and size to improve my ability on the rugby pitch. 

I had no idea where to start. All I had was the “bro Science” that the older guys in the gym were telling me. I had no knowledge of programming, sets, reps, exercise selection, muscle anatomy, nutrition, recovery or mobility. Needless to say, I spent my first year in the gym doing bench press and bicep curls thinking that it would help me. It didn’t.

It wasn’t until I was 17 that I was taught proper technique, movement patterns and training intensity.  

​

This is where I aim to help. 

​

I want to educate and assist as many people as I can to improve their strength, fitness, performance and confidence and get in their best shape ever. 

​

My initial goal of improving my speed, strength and power was put on hold after another rugby related injury at 18. I tore ligaments in my ankle, requiring surgery. In that 10 month wait, I had to adapt my training. It was during this time that I became really passionate about the health benefits of exercise and working out. 

​

I spent the next few years widening my training experience, working on various goals, trialing different training methods such as functional fitness, power lifting, olympic lifting, strength & conditioning, hypertrophy specific training, and more recently competing in Hyrox competitions. 

​

Having reached a point in my training career, that I felt I had achieved a respectable amount of experience I achieved my Personal Trainer qualification so that I can make a difference and help you become healthier, happier, fitter and stronger.
