Those who train together, get race PB’s together! 🥇🥇🥳

Cracking results from Vita (7min PB at the Bristol Half), and Natasha (1min PB at the Bristol 10km) 🤩🏁

Vita & Natasha certainly don’t muck about when it comes to their strength & conditioning sessions with me 🏋🏻‍♂️

Turning up, putting in 100% every time & with a healthy dose of “cooperative competition” between them, the results speak for themselves 📈

If you & a buddy like the idea of chasing down race PB’s, improving your running, or just want to gain confidence in being stronger, ask me about my FREE 45minute in-person taster session & I’m here to support that journey 🤩

I provide strength & conditioning training, periodised running plans, that incorporate a phased increase in duration & intensity - all depending on your requirements 📝 🏋🏼‍♂️

Join the Half Marathon Club, Emma! 🤝🏼🥳

After completing her first half marathon (and therefore, a PB! 🛎️) Emma is back into mobility & conditioning training with me 📊

The day after a half marathon, light mobility & conditioning work helps increase blood flow, reduce stiffness, loosen tight muscles & speed up recovery — so the body can repair, rebuild & adapt properly 🏃🏻‍♀️🏁

It also helps maintain movement quality, reduce injury risk & gets us feeling fresher sooner, instead of sitting still & tightening up 🤸🏻‍♂️

Recovery is training too - Your body breaks down (muscle fibre micro-tears) in high intensity training & competition, then gets stronger in recovery 🛌💪🏼

Running is so much more than just putting one foot in front of the other - especially when you’re chasing PB’s, taking on new races, or looking to improve 👣📈

So if you’d like to improve your running - whatever level you’re at, whether a C25K, to sub 3-hr marathon times, injury rehab or prevention, ask me about my FREE 45minute in-person taster session & I’m here to support that journey 🤩

Not every weekend is a PB weekend ! 😔😁

(Especially when it’s a hot race..!) 🥵

A new half marathon completed for my PT client Natasha who trains smart & consistently 🧠

We take into account the races coming up and adapt the strength & conditioning sessions accordingly 🏋🏻‍♂️

This allows for consistent, injury-free racing which takes the pressure off, but allows the performance to continue 📈

Natasha’s next race in the Bristol 10k this weekend, with the mindset of ENJOYING IT - not, trying to smash out a PB a week after a half marathon…! (Many runners should take note of this mindset !!)☝🏼💯😃

There’s a lot to be said about consistency & dedication 💯📈

Huge congrats to my PT & massage client, Jane, for the amazing milestone of 500 parkruns last Saturday🤩🥳

Always one for banter & good entertainment when training - a great example of “love what you do” 🏋🏻‍♂️😍💪🏼

When your clients turn up in “matchy-matchy” outfits…! 😍😁

Newport Marathon legends Callum (2hrs 38mins) & Matt (2hrs 42mins) are back with me on their strength & conditioning training routine 🏋🏻‍♂️

Huge congrats to Matt for his marathon PB 🥇

And huge (but slightly less huge) congrats to Callum for his second fastest ever marathon 🥈😁

Ridiculously quick around any given course (they’re pretty nifty round a 5km, prom run, 10km & half mara as well, funnily enough…), their quick wit also keeps me on my toes..! 🎭😂

Many runners are (understandably) not too keen on the gym work (let’s be honest, we’d rather be out running) 🫤

But with a training buddy & my guidance to give their training purpose & meaning, everything changes 🤩

So if you’d like to improve your running - whatever level you’re at, whether a C25K, to sub 3-hr marathon times, injury rehab or prevention, ask me about my FREE 45minute in-person taster session & I’m here to support that journey 🤩

When we’re not running, we’re kayaking 🚣🏻‍♂️🤩

Absolutely stunning day for being out on the water & getting the low intensity exercise in ☀️

☝🏼Not all training sessions should be challenging

☝🏼Not all training sessions should be focused on the same sport

☝🏼 By creating a versatile & well rounded training plan, allowing the muscles, joints & bones of our main sport to recover, is the most effective way to achieve success

More “weekend winnings” & another marathon PB ! 🏆🥳

A very respectable 2hrs 54mins..! 😳😯

While James’ race didn’t quite go to plan (a calf tweak & scare meant a more conservative approach was needed), he still managed to shave time off his previous PB 🪒⏱️

James has worked consistently with me for his strength & conditioning training, as well as sports & rehab massage for recovery 🏋🏻‍♂️💆‍♂️

Huge congratulations to Clare, who’s been working hard to overcome some long-term injuries & completed the Boston Marathon on Monday 🇺🇸🏃🏻‍♀️🏆

Clare has been working on her strength & conditioning with me, to get her through the tough training blocks 🏋🏻‍♂️

Training & competing is never a nice “straight line graph” of improvement (even the elites & pro’s get injured !🤕), but we work on improving the hand we’ve been dealt with 🃏

As an added bonus, Clare may have even qualified in the GFA (good for age) for London Marathon next year (TBC - LDN quali times) ⏱️

So if you’d like to improve your running - whatever level you’re at, whether a C25K, to sub 3-hr marathon times, injury rehab or prevention, ask me about my FREE 45minute in-person taster session & I’m here to support that journey 🤩

Really proud of my PT client, Vita, who completed her first half marathon in 12years! 🤩🏃🏻‍♀️🏁

Life takes us in all sorts of “resilience building” directions & Vita has taken it on and come out the other side 🏆

Next stop - Bristol Half Marathon! 📈
