Coach Lynsey Roddam

Let me explain…

Just over a year ago I was diagnosed with a compressed nerve in my cervical spine.

Today my workout included cleans, rope climbs, handstand walks and box jump overs.

Am I fully recovered? No.
I still have nerve compression.
My right arm is still weaker than my left.
I still get numbness in my index finger.

But there is no way I would be capable of doing this if:

A. I hadn’t built strength before the injury
B. I hadn’t continued to strength train (appropriately) during my recovery

Muscle protects you.
Strength makes you more capable.
It supports recovery.
It improves performance.
It helps prevent falls and injuries.
It allows you to age with confidence and independence.

Exercise isn’t risk-free — yes, injuries can happen.

But the risks of being weak, fragile and deconditioned are far greater.

What program do you follow… and why?

The best training is built around you — your goals, injuries, strengths, lifestyle, experience and capacity to recover.

Real progress comes from intentional programming, not just hard workouts.

As a coach, I assess how you move first — then design training that helps you get stronger, more capable and more resilient over time.

If you’ve been training consistently but feel stuck, unsure or keep picking up niggles… this could be why.

Individual design changes everything.

A few years ago I got curious about how much I should be able to hip thrust. My coach told me: “around double your back squat.”
So I tested it — hit 405lb (184kg) for 2 reps and left it there.
Today, even though I’m not as strong as I once was, I felt like seeing what was still in the tank…
195kg (430lb) for 1 rep(ish) — I’ll take it!
