Exercises You Should Do More: Chaos Pushups

There’s no cheating with these, and they’re a great tool to develop strength in the stabilising muscles of the shoulder which will translate it other lifts that utilise the shoulder complex.

Simple Rules For Desk-bound Workers

Sitting is the new smoking, and simply put we’re slowly sitting ourselves to death (which is quite a boring way to go). Just like the battery on your car will need replacing if you don’t drive it; your body will slowly start to decay if you don’t move it

Sam and I have been working together for nearly a year through a mixture of in person sessions and online training. He... has a really calm demeanour and is super knowledgeable so I feel very confident in the program he has put in place for me. The online training has allowed me to make real progress without paying to join a gym and it’s made fitting workouts into my life really achievable. He checks in with me every week and we adjust based on how I’m feeling. I would definitely recommend!read more

I’ve been working with Sam since March 2020. I wanted to work with a trainer who would help me figure out exercises for... sustainable workouts beyond PT sessions.Reasons Sam is a great PT:- he has a quiet and calm approach to training - no shouting here! Lots of gentle encouragement though which works best for me.- Sam listens and responds to your needs - something not working? Have an issue with your knee like me? Sam will work with you to design sessions and exercises to help with that.- Sam has helped me figure out small things I can do now I’m working from home to help keep me active.- He communicates effectively, is responsive and during lockdown provided (for free) tips and exercises to keep me going.Can’t recommend him enough!read more

I’ve never been one of those people who loves the gym or looks forward to exercise however since starting with Sam, i... have enjoyed the whole experience and actually started looking forward to each session. I enjoy the use of a mixture of different equipment and exercises to keep it interesting and appreciate the fact he is always making sure i keep the right posture and adapts exercises to fit personal circumstances.read more

Sam is a brilliant PT who has grown into a friend over the two years we have been working together. He is so... encouraging and makes every single session fun and relaxed. He is also incredibly accommodating and has been coming to my house to do sessions in the garden whilst the studio was closed. I am stronger and fitter, physically and mentally because of our sessions!Thanks for being brilliant Sam!read more

By far the best regular personal training I’ve ever had.No fads, no hype, great communication, good results and very... much tailored to the individual.During lock down Sam always made the effort to get in touch to see if we needed any help with training and sent us programs to follow, something we didn’t expect him to do so he’s always going that little bit further for you.read more

Sam has been training me for over two years. He brings his experience and knowledge to create interesting and tailored... sessions that push me to the limit. The work we have done has taken me a long way in terms of what i have been able to achieve. His encouragement to do that extra rep, hold on those extra few seconds, is also a strong feature of his training, as is his easy-going, friendly style that make the sessions "enjoyable" despite the intensity of the exercise. I cannot recommend Sam highly enough.read more

I took part in the free one month online personal training Sam offers and he makes it so easy to sign up and get... started, and once I was using the app the workouts were easy to follow and 100% tailored to my needs but also really fun to do! All the exercises are clearly demonstrated and the workouts can be done whenever you have the time taking away the pressure to attend the session on time!! I feel a lot stronger and slimmer after doing the programme and so I recommend seeing if it works for you!!read more

Sam has been our personal trainer for over twelve months and counting. We first signed up with him on the buddy... package, with the intention to improve our overall fitness and to lose weight over a three month period. We found the personal training sessions so enjoyable that we continued our sessions with him.Training sessions are varied and engaging - Sam pushes you that bit further each time, yet keeps it still enjoyable so you return for the next session! He listens to what we would like to achieve and training plans are tailored accordingly to suit. He also provides useful advice on diet, home training and other tips; and added benefit to help us reach our goals.In extended periods between sessions, Sam has provided us with training plans that we have been able to carry out whilst away from the gym. This has proved to be invaluable for us in maintaining our fitness levels and ensures that our return to the gym is seamless rather than starting back at square one.My partner and I work different hours which change on a weekly basis; we thought this would make regular training sessions difficult, but Sam has always flexible enough to accommodate us to suit our needs.read more

I have been training with Sam for over a year now. Sam’s PT sessions are tailored to my overall fitness goals but also... tailored to my mood each day. Sam makes working out fun, as stereotypical as this may sounds, I enjoy working out with Sam which for me is paramount to make the workout less of a “chore”. The positive physical results I see from training with Sam have further motivated me to also work on my nutrition, which is another arear where Sam’s expertise has become invaluable. Sam provides me with front to back fitness/wellbeing training and guidance which encompasses, PT work outs, cardio programs and nutrition plans, while being an excellent motivator and coach. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone who is looking to embrace a fitter, healthier future.read more
