Plan details
Online coaching
Make no mistakes about it: online coaching is no substitute to hands on learning, hard work or time served. There are no magic bullet, secret exercises or numbers on a document that provide magical results, and there are no quick fixes to technique that an online guru can give.
​
In my online coaching, focus is on three things:
First of all, structure. I pride myself for knowing numbers, knowing human body, and having the intuition, ability, and experience of being able to adapt that knowledge into individual needs. Programming for strength is 50% repetition, 25% science and 25% art. Sounds like a catchphrase, but I honestly believe it. I will use all my ability to create the best program for each of my clients. It is a process of trial and error, and will take a few months to perfect, but the resulting coach-client relationship can yield untold results.
​
Secondly I offer technical advice. I am the first to admit there are people who have personal technical ability superior to mine. Plenty of them. People who can dissect other people's technique better? They exist, but are not as numerous. I am not the world's best technique coach, but I do claim you are hard pressed to find better, all powerlifting disciplines included. And where I have lack of knowledge, I have no issue admitting it and pointing you to right direction. Technical advice online is not as fruitful as real time face to face advice, but having constant feedback makes a world of difference.
The third main offering is accountability. You are accountable for your training, your technique, and having consistency in both. That in itself may be more important than the fanciest programming or the most fine tuned technique. Consistency beats all other modalities.
​
The monthly payment of online coaching includes the program and any adjustments it needs along the way, feedback on your training videos and answers to questions (usually within 24 hours), weight cut and diet advice, consultation on planning the year competitively, and any other help I can give with my experience.
​​​​​​
1 to 1 coaching
This is simply normal, face to face training to assess and perfect technique. I focus on troubleshooting certain movements and the sessions are for fine tuning technique, perfecting form and learning to use new equipment, not general personal training.
The sessions are not limited in time, excepting personal schedule limitations. If getting most out of the session means staying in the gym upwards of 90 minutes, so be it. I will not cut a session short if more is to be gained, but usually after 2 hours the client and coach are both so spent there is not much to be gained. Hence the sessions are generally 60-120 minutes.
80£ plus possible gym fee. I travel a lot, thus this is not a regular option, and always subject to availability.
Workshops
I have delivered workshops and lectures around the world on benching, powerlifting, programming, and similar topics. This is also subject to personal timetables, but something that I am always willing to entertain and really enjoy doing. My presentation skills are better than most industry professionals, mostly because I present for a living and spent years as a professional actor. With the danger of sounding arrogant, I deliver!
​
Every workshop deal is bespoke, so get in touch if interested.
One-off programs
This is an 8-12-week program, one off, no coaching obligation. The deal includes me assessing your current situation in depth with a questionnaire, call, and videos, trying to gauge you and giving individual feedback on all lifts. I will then form a program in conjunction with you. Once the program is ready, I can redo or tweak it once during the period, but the constant support of coaching is not included.
It is an affordable option if one wants to try professional coaching, optimal to use for one off peaking for a meet, building a successful off season structure, or if you want to test my coaching skills no strings attached.
