Your week keeps changing
Meetings run over, travel comes up, a week disappears. Your plan uses the days and the time you really have. Miss a session and you do the next one in order.

Who it's for
Coaching for real working weeks
For adults at any level who want a clear plan and someone checking in.
Getting back into it
You trained before, then work, family or an injury got in the way. We start where you can recover and build back steadily. If something hurts, the plan works around it.
Ready to get stronger
You already train, but progress has stalled. You log every set, aim to beat last week's numbers, and get planned easier weeks so you keep going.
How it works
What working together looks like
-
A free call
30 minutes. Your goals, your week, and what has got in the way before. I explain the coaching and the price, and we decide together. No obligation.
-
A private questionnaire
Your health, training, equipment and schedule. Your answers stay private. If anything needs a doctor's OK first, I'll tell you before we start.
-
Your plan, explained
You see the agreement and price before you pay. I build your plan, then we walk through it on a call and agree your starting weights.
-
Train and check in
Your plan is a Google Sheet on your phone: your sets, rest times and last week's numbers to beat. Send a short check-in after your first week, then every two weeks, and message me any time.
-
Review, then your next block
Each block of training ends with an easier week and a short review. I build your next block from what you logged.
Photographs from my own training
Me, training. The same lifts your plan is built on.

Programme Block
£100 one-off
For people who want a plan to follow on their own.
- A personal 4 to 12 week training plan
- In a Google Sheet you log on your phone
- One round of changes within 14 days if something doesn't fit
- No check-ins, messaging or nutrition plan
In Edinburgh: in-person sessions (£60), mobile sports massage (£50 for 45 minutes) and home gym planning.
On a weight-loss medicine like a GLP-1? You're welcome here.
You don't need to worry about starting with a trainer. Strength training and enough protein are the best-supported ways to keep muscle and strength while you lose weight, so your plan puts both first and checks you're eating enough. Your prescriber stays in charge of the medicine.

Questions
Good to know
Do I need a gym?
No. Your plan is built around the equipment you have, at a gym or at home. Planning a home gym? I can help you choose what to buy.
What if I miss a session or a week?
Do the next session in order. There's no catching up. If you miss a week, carry on where you stopped and your dates move back a week. If your weeks are hard to predict, tell me and I'll plan fewer days or shorter sessions.
I'm new to the gym. Is that OK?
Yes. Coaching is for adults (18 and over) at any level. Beginners start with a small amount of work at an easy effort, and we choose your starting weights together on the walkthrough call.
I have an injury or a health condition. Can you still coach me?
Usually, yes. The questionnaire asks about your health and injuries. Your plan works around current pain, and some conditions need a doctor's OK before we start. I'll tell you if that applies to you. Coaching doesn't replace medical care or physiotherapy.
How do I cancel?
Email or message me before your next payment date. There's no minimum term and no cancellation fee, and your coaching carries on until the end of the month you've paid for. If you're not happy within your first 14 days, you get a full refund.
