About
I got into fitness once I had left school where from day one, I fell in love with it and how it made me feel, I really enjoyed strength and functional fitness training which in turn lead me down the path of CrossFit which I’ve been doing for the past three years. My passion for CrossFit has grown so much that I have even participate and will continue to participate in competitions, these have pushed me out of my comfort zone but has also made me realise that being out of our comfort zone is and can be a good thing. I have worked in a gym environment for the past two years where I have had experience running classes and working with both men and women of all ages improve their general fitness and build strength. I’m very excited to be working in this family run business to help create a community of fitness enthusiasts.
Approach
I like to incorporate functional fitness, strength and conditioning, CrossFit, and mobility styles of training into my one-to-one sessions depending on the clients’ preferences and goals. My main aim is to give people a routine that can be sustained, get people excited about training, get them motivated to push themselves and to make exercise enjoyable. I’m all about keeping our bodies moving well, feeling good and being as strong as possible for as long as possible while making the process fun. As a personal trainer I ensure I listen to my client’s needs and wants, create a clear plan and solid foundation for myself and the clients to work from while allowing the session to be their time to not think, destress, be supported, work hard, and feel awesome.
Experience
I went through my football career with a lot of injuries which then swerved me in the direction of physiotherapy and learning more about how muscles and bones work when I was of a very young age. I became a qualified self-employed PT just before lockdown and ran online classes/1-1’s over Zoom which then turned into 1-1 PTs in the gym. Since recently moving to Leeds I have been lucky enough to find this great gym that I cant wait to be a part of.
