I’ve been training clients since I qualified as a personal trainer in 2005. Before that, I completed a sports science degree at University of Wales and spent a year travelling in Australia.

One of the best things about being a personal trainer is the variety. I’ve trained all kinds of people in the last ten years, from national-level athletes to complete beginners who just want to get off the sofa and improve their general fitness. I get a real kick out of seeing clients achieve their fitness goals, especially when the good habits they learn will help keep them healthy and active for years to come.

You never stop learning as a physical trainer and I always try to increase my expertise, so I’m up to date with the latest developments in sports science. As well as training clients, I work with the Firefighters Charity as an exercise therapist and remedial massage therapist, helping people recover from injury and illness.

Personally, I enjoy weight training in the gym, playing cricket and running. I like to take part in a few half marathons or 10k runs each year. In my free time I enjoy walking on Dartmoor and the South West Coast Path, as well as spending time at the beach surfing and kayaking with my family.
