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.

Check out the video below for more information or contact me.
