Functional Bodies

01/02/2026

All of my personal training programmes are designed for adults 45+ who want to move better, feel safer in their body, and train without fear of making things worse.

They all share the same foundation:
• Total-body sessions — so your whole body stays capable for everyday life, without needing long or exhausting workouts
• Strength-focused training — gentle, progressive strength is what supports joints, reduces flare-ups, and builds confidence over time
• Joint-friendly by design — we always work within your current ability, adapting exercises around pain, sensitive joints, and past injuries
• Calm, purposeful exercise variety — enough change to keep joints healthy and avoid overload, never rushed or random
• Familiar key movements — kept consistent long enough for your body to feel safe, learn the patterns, and gradually get stronger

Different bodies. Different histories. Different goals.

The same thoughtful principles — because feeling safe and capable is what leads to lasting progress.

Functional Bodies is designed for adults 45+ who want to improve their strength, mobility, athleticism, and overall fitness. Our workouts are challenging, effective, and—most importantly—joint-friendly. We focus on exercises that protect your back, knees, and shoulders, so you can train hard, feel great, and stay injury-free.

Functional Bodies focuses on customised, joint-safe exercise programs that strengthen muscles, restore mobility, and directly replicate daily movements. This makes everyday tasks like standing, climbing stairs, carrying things, and reaching much easier—with less pain and more confidence.

Back, shoulder, or knee pain doesn’t just hurt — it steals your freedom. Walks get shorter, hobbies feel harder, and even simple things take more effort.

At Functional Bodies, we use joint-friendly training for adults 45+ to rebuild strength, ease pain, and restore confidence.

Imagine saying “yes” again — to walks, golf, gardening, or simply keeping up with family.

That’s the freedom we help you reclaim.

Another happy client getting back into exercise and away from pain. 💪

My client came to me complaining of lower back pain, made worse when performing squat type movements and shoulder pain when pressing over head. After a movements performance assessment, we found joint friendly exercises that fit his body that didn't hurt him but challenged him just enough to build some strength.
