About

Ba, MSc
“For me, the most important thing is the Coach-Athlete Relationship…attentiveness, confidence, trust…working together towards a shared goal”
I’ve been coaching for around a decade, working with everyone from recreational through to senior international level across a variety of sports. Alongside I work as an educator for British Weightlifting, and as a PhD Researcher and Assistant Lecturer at the University of Hull.
My coaching philosophy is evidence-based, utilising modern sports science alongside an emphasis on the importance of the coach-athlete relationship. What that means for you is that you get a coach who uses data tracking and performance sport metrics, but who also pays detailed attention to you as an individual.
If you want to work with me, you can join my coaching community right here. You’ll get immediate access to 2, 3, 4 and 5 day programme variations for weightlifting, powerlifting, conditioning and hypertrophy, plus sports nutrition and recovery management guides.
On top of that you’ll get daily access to me for questions, weekly live Q&A’s, technique feedback and a whole bunch of bonus unlockables – All underpinned by a performance guarantee.
