I aim to provide a truly bespoke service to all of my athletes, delivering and analysing training plans on a daily basis that are truly unique to each individual, adjusting the plan as life gets in the way of training. I like to catch up with athletes on a regular basis to discuss progress and how best to prepare for their goal event while gaining an insight into what the day to day life looks like for each athlete outside of training so I can make better informed decisions when prescribing training.

I believe in a cohesive coach/athlete relationship, catering for everybody's individual needs and preferences, as opposed to saying this is what we must do, I prefer athletes taking some ownership of there training and have input into the plan. The key for success in my eyes between the athlete and coach is strong communication as the data only paints half the picture, feedback in each session is crucial to help maximise the potential of each athlete in order to make better decisions when prescribing training, depending on fatigue levels, But also crucially work and life stress. I believe that all aspects in life need to work in harmony together to help keep consistency within training and lead you into your race in the best possible physical and mental condition you can be to maximise your potential on the big day.
