Progression is a form of getting out of your comfort zone and trying new techniques to better yourself in all areas of life. My goal is to help eliminate the doubt and push on towards success, whether minor or major goals we can work as a team to conquer the journey. I specialise in strength and conditioning, weight loss and event training.
