Training philosophy

My goal as a Personal Trainer is to empower my clients. To provide support and motivation to each individual. Creating an enviroment for success.

A typical session

Each training session will be structured. Comprising of a warmup the workout itself and a cool down. Every client will have an individual program based on the needs and capability of the individual. The program will be adaptive and progressive moving towards each clients short, medium and long term goals. Each program will include all components of physical fitness and not contained to time spent together. Each workout will provide knowledge, motivation and encouragement to include exercise in their daily life.

Client success story

One of my many motivational memories as a trainer was working with an individual with fibromyalgia, when I first met my client, she could barely make it to the car and about leaving work would have to go home and sleep for a few hours to continue on with her day. We worked together 3 times a week over a period of time taking each day at a time dealing with flare-ups as they came. Adapting each session accordingly. Over a period of years I watched my client regain her life. We still keep in touch and I am inspired by her to this day.
