Frequently asked questions

I work primarily with men and women over 35 who want to build strength, lose body fat and feel better in their bodies - without extreme diets or unrealistic training routines.

Clients come from a wide range of backgrounds and experience levels, from complete beginners to those who’ve trained before but feel stuck or unsure how to progress.

No. You don’t need any prior fitness experience to start.

All coaching is tailored to your current ability, confidence and experience level. Training progresses at a pace that’s right for you, focusing on building strength and confidence gradually.

Many clients I work with have tried multiple approaches before and struggled with consistency or progress.

My role is to remove guesswork and provide clear structure. Coaching starts with an in-depth consultation to understand your goals, lifestyle, training history and the barriers that have made progress difficult in the past.

From there, I create a personalised plan and adapt it over time, providing ongoing support, accountability and honest guidance so progress feels achievable and sustainable.

Progress looks different for everyone and depends on consistency, starting point and individual goals.

Most clients notice improvements in strength, energy and confidence within the first few weeks, with visible physical changes developing over time. The focus is always on long-term progress rather than quick fixes.

Yes. Coaching is designed to fit around real life.

Training plans are built to be realistic and flexible, taking work, family and other commitments into account. When life gets busy, the plan adapts - consistency always comes before perfection.

Yes. All programmes are adapted to suit injuries, limitations and medical considerations.

This is discussed during your consultation so training can be planned safely and effectively. If medical clearance is required, this will be communicated clearly before training begins.

Every programme is tailored to your current ability and confidence level.

You’ll never be asked to do exercises you’re not ready for. Training focuses on movements you feel comfortable performing safely, with progress introduced gradually over time.

The goal is to build strength and confidence with a programme you can stick to.

Online coaching is a personalised, ongoing coaching service delivered remotely.

After an initial consultation and onboarding process, I design a training plan based on your goals, experience, lifestyle and available equipment. Programmes are adjusted over time based on progress and feedback.

Nutrition support is provided in a realistic, sustainable way, with clear calorie targets and guidance. Progress is tracked through regular check-ins, photos and measurements where appropriate.

Coaching is ongoing and adaptive, with support and accountability throughout.

No. Programmes are built around what you have access to.

This could be a gym, a home setup or no equipment at all. If additional equipment would be genuinely beneficial for your goals, I’ll make clear and practical recommendations - nothing is required unless it adds value.

Online coaching provides structured training, nutrition guidance and ongoing support remotely, allowing flexibility and independence regardless of location.

1:1 personal training offers hands-on, face-to-face coaching for local clients who prefer in-person sessions.

Both options are personalised - the main difference is how the coaching is delivered.

1:1 Personal Training (Mobile)
Training takes place at a location convenient for both of us, where possible selecting a suitable midpoint between postcodes.

1:1 Personal Training (Gym)
Gym-based training takes place in a private gym located in the UB9 area.

Online coaching is available nationwide.

Availability for in-person training varies based on location and current schedule. This can be discussed during your consultation.

If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, a minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required. Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged at the full session rate.

If you arrive late, the session will still finish at the scheduled time. If I’m running late, additional time will be added or made up in a future session.

Payment methods and schedules depend on the coaching option you choose.

1:1 Personal Training
A 25% deposit is required to secure your booking and is paid via bank transfer (BACS).
The remaining balance is split into monthly payments, payable at your first session of each month. Payments are made via cash or bank transfer.

Online Coaching
Online coaching is paid monthly via recurring credit or debit card payments through the coaching app.

All payments and deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable.

Before starting coaching, all clients complete a PAR-Q (Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire) via the coaching app.

In some cases, medical clearance from your GP may be required before training begins. Any charges for medical clearance are set by your GP.

All personal and medical information is kept strictly private and confidential.

Yes, small group training is available.

This can include training as a couple or in a small group of up to three people. Sessions are structured so everyone can train safely and effectively, with exercises adapted where needed.

Availability is discussed during your consultation.

The free consultation is a 30-minute call held via Zoom.

It’s a relaxed, no-pressure conversation where we talk through your goals, lifestyle, training experience and any challenges you’ve faced. This helps determine whether coaching is the right fit and which option would suit you best.

To book, complete the enquiry form and I’ll be in touch to arrange a suitable time.

I don’t just provide a plan and leave you to figure it out alone.

My coaching focuses on structure, education and accountability. You’ll understand what you’re doing, why you’re doing it, and how to apply it consistently around real life.

Plans are adapted as things change, ensuring progress continues even when motivation dips or schedules shift.
