Book session

I am a creative, organised and diligent sports science student at Loughborough University as well as a former national level triathlete. I enjoy being active and encouraging others to do the same, using my natural inclination to provide assistance to others to offer the best type of coaching I can.

I am also a patient person and am willing to commit long term to see improvements, as I have done in the past both for my own sporting progress as well as helping coach younger athletes in my local sports clubs. I also have a sufficiency in empathising with the concerns and issues others are facing and am able to use such concerns to reassure clients that I am there for them and will tailor any sessions to fit their wants and needs.

My previous high level sporting experience has left me with the ability to formulate progressive training programmes, permitting clients to both enjoy each session as they come as well as laying out an appropriate path for meaningful and satisfying progression in sporting competence and fitness to occur.

About the session

Mixture of calisthenic and traditional running sessions, alternating between field and track work between winter and summer seasons I would structure a progressive program so that the intensity and/or volume of each session is gradually increased over a number of weeks, promoting gradual improvements in muscle strength, power and speed. The sessions are designed to mimic the demands of running races at a given time of the year, with calisthenics additions used to promote muscle stability and flexibility to limit injury risks. Session rep distance and speed would also be alternated each week to limit tedium of running a particular distance or speed, promoting further client motivation to attend each session.
