How can I help you improve your health?

Drawing from a wealth of personal experience over two decades, I can guide you in all aspects of health, fitness and performance. My clients have ranged from elderly people looking to strengthen their bodies to combat illness and disease, general weight loss and confidence building, to World Champions in sport.

I have a background in competitive Powerlifting, winning Men's Open European Championships from 2014-2017 and the 2017 World Championships, I held British squat records in three weight categories, and broke British, European and World records in both the squat and three-lift total on multiple occasions. Since then my hobbies include working as a guest speaker and ambassador for mental health, men's mental health and spinal injury charities, helping promote awareness to help people improve their lives.
