Adam MacAlister

About

Hello, my name is Adam MacAlister and I am the owner of AdMacFitness, which is a small independent business consisting of personal training, bootcamps and classes all in the community of Bow, E3, East London. The nearest tubes are Bow Road underground (5 minutes walk), Bow Church DLR (1 minute walk), and Mile End (10 minutes walk).

I see myself as a coach to my clients and my philosophy is that exercise isn't just a tool used to look a certain way. Your body can of course reflect your lifestyle - but exercise can take so many forms and should be enjoyed for its own sake. With this, my intentions are to develop a client's all round fitness - using Power Lifting, Olympic Weightlifting, Calisthenics, Gymnastics, Yoga, High intensity intervals and Boxing - in order to feel stronger, lose body fat, learn new skills, enjoy exercise, put on muscle, improve stamina and move better. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients - from people who haven't exercised for years and want to learn how to prioritise their health, to high level dancers who are looking to learn more advanced skills. To book in a trial, no obligation personal training session send an email to admacfitness@gmail.com.

To train hard regularly, recovery has to be effective. In this case I often use a lifestyle tracker - where we monitor daily steps, cardio, sleep and energy levels. In addition to this I include complete nutritional coaching and clients receive detailed guidelines when they commence training.

My background

Having completed a Bachelor of Science Degree in the field of Sports and Exercise Science I went on to do a Post Graduate Certificate in Education in Physical Education (PE). After teaching Secondary School PE for five years in London, I left to coach football in America. During my time working for a club in Massachusetts I began doing strength and conditioning work with the players and on my return to London I made the decision to use my experiences in teaching, coaching and my degree - and setup a personal training business.
