COACHING AND TRAINING

Why work with a coach?
Because random workouts can get you started but to keep progressing you’ll need a structured program.
​
I can help you design an individualised workout programme based on your goals that considers your unique circumstances like your body, your age, abilities, fitness levels and your resources.
I am 56 years old so I know only too well the challenges that present themselves as one gets older.
I have worked with clients who have had certain ailments and health issues, low energy, debilitating fatigue and the inability to recover from workouts.
​
These are exacerbated often by the quantity and quality of sleep quality, hormonal issues, mobility issues and sarcopenia - the muscle loss that comes with age.
​
Yes it can be daunting but you can’t give up because your strength and health are the only things that ensure you have an exceptional quality of life as your age.
How I can help you...
I can help you program workouts that are balanced and maximise efficiency so that there is no wasted time or effort. I can help you use the correct technique and execution to get the best results and minimise the risk for injury. I can be there to provide support accountability. I can help you to enjoy the process and not totally exhaust you.
