It's not been the easiest of times to train, and for all my clients that have continued with our PT outside I sincerely thank you, you're all utterly amazing! 🙏💪

I for one am counting down the days until lockdown 2.0 is lifted and some sort of normality can return. It's not been an easy time.

Through adversity and hardships we have always found a way to come back stronger and more resilient, more prepared for the next speed bump that comes our way.

But for now I'm looking to the future, relishing new challenges. If you're looking at this and have had all the home workouts you can take, or are totally over the zoom classes, then fear not as I have some availability for new clients.

Approaching 11 years in the health & fitness world, there aren't many body types and abilities that I haven't encountered. I am confident with my help, and your application anything is possible.

Sign up for a complementary consultation and let's sit down and discuss your fitness journey and how I can be a part of making any goals you have a reality.

Good morning! I'm often asked what are the benefits to having a personal trainer. Typically I'll respond with a focused plan of action, nutritional guidance, mentorship through our training, technique coaching and accountability - to make sure you're doing what's required.

That's often all people want to hear or know before choosing a trainer. But what if I told you I am also super interested to keep your body healthy and functional for years to come?

In an age where humans are almost hybrids, constantly using technology, phones, laptops and watching TV our POSTURES are getting more and more compromised to the point it's going to become a problem in not just later in life but right now!

This is a great picture, it really shows the benefit to PT in the physical sense of increased muscle, retained leanness, better definition, but critically look at the massively improved POSTURE.

More and more clients come in with protracted (hunched forward) shoulders, extended neck, and slack core. Aside from looking better, I want to make sure we address any imbalances posturally.

Postural checks are part of the consultation process and will form part of our training. For availability and pricing DM me today and I'll get back to you asap.

This video is also in today's and is highlighting that good technique is the cornerstone to longevity and also gains.

So many people posting up very questionable reps in the name of . That's going to end badly in the long run.

Bring back the weights to a manageable but challenging weight and seriously focus on having a great TECHNIQUE!

You'll "feel" it more and in those targeted muscles and the end result will be you'll increase those gains!

performing a very nice hang/hanging deadlift as part of his back day.

If you'd like bespoke coaching on lifts, or perhaps sign up for one of our 12 Week Transformation packages then drop me a DM and we can book you in for a free consultation at the studio.

When you sign up to train with me, one of the things I'm passionate about is passing on great technique.

Too often people go to large chain classes, get pushed within an inch of their lives for that exclusive post session pic for the 'gram and who have no real regard to technique or if it's specific enough for the client.

I am here to ensure you train correctly and that it serves a purpose to the goals we have set out from day one, and critically if you're capable of performing the movement safely.

Invest your time and money wisely when choosing a PT... and choose me! 😉

Just wanted to share this cheeky video of my client nailing the barbell squat this morning with 150kg!

There is more in the tank but I think we were around 6 sets in at this point on a diamond pyramid!

Phenomenal power and cardio, this guys got it in spades. 50kcal gets dispatched nearly every session in under the minute mark with a PB of 51seconds (I think right Kevin!?) That's just not normal!

As a lawyer Kevin's biggest struggles are sleep and working into the night on a UK/US time zone crossover, but he never fails to turn up to get the job done! Well played sir!

BUILD A BULLET PROOF BACK!

As a society we have dramatically reduced the amount of moving we do, the exercise we do and replaced it with vast amounts of sitting!

This doesn't bode well for our bodies to remain healthy as it can create lots of niggles and ailments through inactivity. Typically people's postures suffer with craning of the neck, also known as commuters neck, protracted (rounded) shoulders and curvature of the upper thoracic region known as kyphosis.

One way of helping to combat a bad back is through weight training. Weight training with specific exercises will develop your back muscles to pull you into position, improve your posture and work as a preventative method to combating back ache and other associated posture problems.

One of my favourite back exercises as demo'd in this short clip is a compound lift (multiple muscles being used) called a BENT OVER ROW.

This specific exercise primarily targets the lower, mid and upper trapezius muscles (traps) as well as rear deltoids, rhomboids, and lats. It's incredibly challenging on the core and legs too so its important to start light and incrementally add more to the bar once you're comfident with your technique.

Which brings me on to my top tips for FORM: STARTING WITH...

DRAW YOUR SHOULDERS BLADES TOGETHER.

PUSH YOUR HIPS BACK, SIMULTANEOUSLY HINGING (TIPPING) FROM THE HIP FORWARD.

AS YOU TIP FORWARD, ALIGN YOUR CHEST OVER OR INLINE WITH YOUR FEET. NEUTRAL SPINE LOOKING AT THE FLOOR.

PULL THE BAR BACKWARDS AND UP INTO THE CREASE AREA WHERE YOUR HIP BONE IS.

CONTROL THE BAR AS YOU REVERSE THAT POSITION AND LOWER YOUR BAR INFRONT OF YOUR SHINS, JUST BELOW THE KNEE.

Remember to start light, and build up the confidence to go a little heavier. 4-5 Sets and 12-15 reps.

Don't forget to give this exercise a go! If you film it tag me in your post! Good luck! 💪🏻 🏋️

Having a play with hang clean and press super setting with some bodyweight explosive pressups.

The types of exercises used to build quick, explosive power are movements that require a maximum or near-maximum power output from the athlete in a short amount of time.

The goal of explosive exercise training is to build enough power to ultimately move heavy weights very quickly.

For me I find that these types of exercises build lean muscle quite quickly and reduce my bodyfat due to the high energy defecit they create.

The downside to these movements is I'm sore af! Will need to hit that foam roller ASAP.

&c

It's been a less than ideal time for my client who after our first session broke her collar bone on the way home putting a long delay on her wedding day prep by a few months!

Since then she's worked so hard on rehab, diet and of course training with me

In order to step up her game she picked up one of heart rate monitors to keep a track on her workouts, workrate and to train within her specific heart rate zones.

In doing so she's working harder than ever, and with just a few weeks until the big day she's killing it with a 700kcal workout. Kilos of bodyfat she'd, lean tissue built and the shoulder is gaining strength week by week. Awesome job! 👏🏼
