Services

Everybody is unique - from the way our body reacts to different forms of exercise and nutrition to the type of changes we’d like to see in our health, appearance and lifestyle.

However, we also tend to be within the boundaries of one or more general categories of health and fitness. Psychologically it helps us if we have a clear mission in terms of a start and end point, a strategy, goals and what we can expect to achieve within that timescale.
Choosing the optimum combination of the various components of health and fitness can be a daunting task when you consider the various aspects involved:

General conditioning
Basic nutrition and weight management strategies
Muscular endurance
Toning
Muscular hypertrophy
Neuromuscular strength
Balance, coordination and proprioception
Mobility, agility and core stability
Aerobic conditioning
Anaerobic conditioning
SMR and PNF flexibility techniques and postural correction

For these reasons I’ve classified my services into a number of convenient packages outlined within the menu to the left. Each package forms a framework which is tailored to your own specific needs and requirements.
All these packages include 2 starter sessions for new clients comprising a Physical Activity Readiness Consultation and a Personal Profile assessment.

Alternatively I can design a series of programs on an individual session-by-session basis. The initial consultation will enable us to decide exactly what is perfect for you.
Sessions are usually carried out at my fully-equipped private gym. Alternatively, home visits can be arranged for clients, depending on location.
