There are two different approaches to my personal sessions:
However, both approaches start with the same important procedure – helping you decide what your goals should be.
Which Approach Is For You?
If Health is your main focus and you are not intending to join a gym, an Individual Health Assessment with a Home Workout Plan and some Health Advice would be the way to go.
If your goals are related to body image or exercise performance, you would benefit more from an exercise programme and one or more Personal Training sessions.
Individual Health Assessments
for personalised Nutrition, Weight Management and Health Advice
Typically 1 hour sessions.
£30/hour in-person | £25/hour online
One-to-one assessment.
Bring a friend for moral support if you want to.
We will assess your state of health, factoring in body measurements, diet, activities, lifestyle, and habits.
I will screen your posture and movement for common issues like low back, knee and shoulder pains.
We’ll then discuss how corrective exercises and mindful habits can be used to achieve and maintain healthy posture and movement patterns.
We will discuss your goals.
We can then work out a realistic timeframe and a set of short and long term strategies to help you achieve your goals.
These strategies might include dietary changes, a personalised exercise programme, and practising coping skills such as time management and sleep hygiene.
Personal Training
for personalised Exercise Programmes and Movement & Lifting Coaching
Typically 1 hour sessions.
£30/hour in-person | £25/hour online
Rates vary for longer/shorter and group sessions.
One-to-one training, or groups of 2 or 3 on request.
You may bring a training partner to learn with you, but I will only be giving specific training advice to paying clients.
I will screen your posture and movement for common issues.
Your personalised exercise programme will be built using the relevant corrective exercises as lead-ins to your main fitness progressions. [example]
Depending on your fitness goals and training experience, I will coach you on the main barbell lifts, or a more relevant selection of exercises.

Whether you opt for an Individual Health Assessment or a Personal Training session, the session structure will have much in common.
The first session will involve:
- Signing the paperwork (legal docs & questionnaires)

Future sessions will involve:

Health & Fitness Tests

The results of these tests will be used to decide on specific, measurable health and fitness goals that are appropriate for you.
