I help people who struggle with their motivation, fitness or eating.
My approach focuses on behaviour & habits, not just workouts or plans.
I have been a personal trainer since 2002 and have written three books on fitness and behaviour change.
I coach people in person in London (Battersea) or by video with Online Personal Training – One to One Sessions.
