I didn't start out as the person I am today.

For years, losing weight was something I thought about constantly. I'd tell myself I'd start soon, sort things out next week or get serious when the timing was right.

But thinking about changing and actually doing something about it are two very different things.

At my heaviest, I weighed 133kg. I knew I needed to make a change, but knowing that wasn't enough. I had to take action and build habits I could maintain.

My transformation didn't happen overnight. It came from showing up, learning as I went, being consistent and accepting that progress takes time.

Along the way, training became about much more than the number on the scales. It became about confidence, discipline, strength and proving to myself that I could do something I'd put off for years.

Why I became a personal trainer

I know what it's like to want to change your body but not know where to start. I also know how easy it is to become overwhelmed by conflicting advice, unrealistic expectations and people promising instant results.

I wanted to help people cut through the noise. My approach is straightforward: understand your goals, build a plan around your life, track your progress and keep improving.

You don't have to be fit before you start. You don't have to know every exercise. And you don't have to become someone else to make a change.

You just need to be willing to start.

MY COACHING PHILOSOPHY

Realistic training. A programme built around your goals, experience and lifestyle.

Practical nutrition. Guidance that helps you make progress without treating food as the enemy.

Honest accountability. Support, feedback and adjustments when things aren't going to plan.

Long-term results. The goal isn't just to change your body for 12 weeks. It's to build habits you can keep.

I'm a qualified Level 2 and Level 3 personal trainer, and I want to help you take the next step in your own journey.

I've made the change. Now let's work on yours.
