Build strength. Boost endurance. Conquer every challenge.

29/04/2026

Most people guess when it comes to their training.

More sessions. More classes. More effort.�But no clear direction.

The longevity assessment removes that guesswork.

We look at how you move, how you control it, and how your body actually performs under load.

From there, everything is built with purpose.

No generic plans. No wasted time. Just a clear strategy based on what you actually need.

Start with the assessment.�Book via the link in bio — or DM “ASSESSMENT” if you’re not sure where to start.

Before a single weight is lifted, I need to know how your body actually moves.

This is a movement assessment, the foundation of every programme I write.

What I'm looking for:
→ How your hips load under a vertical load
→ Whether your thoracic spine rotates freely
→ Where asymmetries are hiding that will cause problems later

Most City professionals I work with show the same patterns. Tight hips. Restricted upper back. Limited ankle mobility. Not because they're weak — because they sit for 10 hours a day.

The assessment tells me what your body needs. Not what a generic template assumes.

This is the difference between a programme that works and one that doesn't.

Blood pressure is one of the most powerful indicators of cardiovascular health.�
It tells us how hard your heart has to work to move blood around the body and gives a clear picture of long term heart and vessel health. The best part is that blood pressure is highly responsive to lifestyle changes.
Here is how to understand your reading:

Blood Pressure Score Guide
🟢 Green Optimal�Less than 120 over less than 80 mmHg

🟠 Amber Elevated or Pre Hypertensive�120 to 129 over less than 80�Or�130 to 139 over 80 to 89

🔴 Red Hypertensive Range�140 or higher systolic�Or�90 or higher diastolic

Improvements in daily movement, nutrition choices and recovery habits can significantly improve blood pressure in as little as four to six weeks.

Waist to hip ratio is one of the clearest indicators of metabolic health.

It reflects how much fat is stored around the abdomen, which is strongly linked to long term health and disease risk. It is also far more meaningful than scale weight on its own. Here is how to score your result:

Waist to Hip Ratio Score Guide

Men
🟢 Green: less than 0.90
🟠 Amber: 0.90 to 0.99
🔴 Red: 1.00 or higher

Women
🟢 Green: less than 0.80
🟠 Amber: 0.80 to 0.89
🔴 Red: 0.90 or higher

If your result falls in the Amber or Red zones, small improvements in movement, nutrition and recovery can create meaningful changes.

Grip strength is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health, ageing and independence.
It tells us far more than just how strong your hands are — it reflects your whole-body strength, neuromuscular efficiency and resilience.
Here’s how to score your grip strength using two simple tests you can do anywhere:

💪 DEAD HANG — Score Guide
Men
🟢 Green: 60+ seconds
🟠 Amber: 30–59 seconds
🔴 Red:

IRONMAN NICE – 29th June 2025 🏊‍♂️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️⁠

Three years ago, in 2022, I set out to complete my first full Ironman here in Nice but I was time-capped after the bike and swim. Ever since, I’ve had unfinished business with this course.⁠

This year, the conditions were brutal. A non-wetsuit swim in the Mediterranean, a 180km bike through the mountains with 2,400m of climbing, and a marathon in 34°C heat with no shade.⁠

Two laps into the run, the heat hit hard and every time I tried to run, I felt like I was going to faint. My legs went wobbly, and I knew I was in trouble. With one lap to go, I told I didn’t think I could finish.⁠

But she believed I could. With her support (and some quick maths on the cutoff time), I committed to a power walk instead of a run and step by step, I made it to the finish line before the 16-hour cutoff.⁠

After the race, I ended up needing IV fluids and an ECG at the hospital, but I wouldn’t change it for a second.⁠

This was redemption and proof that sometimes success isn’t about how fast you move, but that you don’t stop moving.⁠

Proud of the journey, proud of the effort, and especially proud of conquering the swim without a wetsuit, which is my biggest challenge in triathlon.⁠

Grateful for the lessons, the support and the ice cold beer with (after I had fully recovered).⁠

Mallorca 70.3 May 2024 - Busy and stressful 5 months of work meant I went into this event exhausted and was just happy to complete this and have some downtime on the beach afterwards.
