About

Ten years, and the certificates to go with them.

I have been a fitness trainer for ten years, most of it on the gym floor with clients in front of me. Everything I write for online clients comes from that.

How I think about it

  • Training four days a week for twelve weeks beats going hard for two weeks and stopping.
  • A plan only works if you can still follow it in week nine.
  • I can explain every set and every food on your plan.
  • If you hate the food, you will stop, so the food is built from what you already eat.

Start your plan.

Fill in the form and I will come back to you with questions, usually the same day. Your plan arrives within 48 hours.
