Questions I get asked all the time as a personal trainer

Now these are great questions!

But the answer isn’t always so straightforward as it really comes down to the individual who is asking. Factors such as goals, availability on a daily basis and experience can really dictate the answer.

The main thing in any training split is CONSISTENCY. Being able to show up week to week and meet the total sessions you have planned.

There is no point in having a 5 day split when you can only consistently manage 3 days and just forget about your lower body sessions👀

Factors such as rest between training certain muscle groups, effort levels in sessions and much more can impact what changes your progress from good to GREAT.

So yes, technically your training split does matter. But your consistency matters WAY more 🫡

This year has been wild so far…

ps - my niece was not a fan of getting her picture taken with me here🤣

At the start of the year between moving gym I lost someone incredibly important to me.

However, the support from my incredible clients and everyone around me made this hard time easier🫶

Then moving to ESPC Dundee which was daunting at first has now become the best decision I’ve made this year!

The full team there made me and my clients feel welcome as soon as we stepped through the doors

Reaching maximum capacity early on in the year was wild!

This is something I do not take lightly as understanding that each person has placed their trust in me is something that motivates me to do better and be a better coach each day.

I love the idea of being able to coach ANYONE no matter their age, ability or background and this is something I’m incredibly proud to have achieved!

Creating my own clothing brand was crazy!

This is something I wanted to do for awhile but needed my “why” - meaning what is my reason to create this, what’s the reason that will drive me to make this a success

And this came to be creating this brand which has all profits from sales going directly to a charity. Deciding on which charity was the easy part as my connection with the autistic community was growing due to working with a good few autistic people!

So Scottish Autism was the natural choice

Now being in a position of having over 130+ sales and currently building a website for this brand is CRAZY

Easily my proudest achievement of the year

This, alongside the clothing brand was launched at the same time and took months and months of planning.

I was easily working 70+ hour weeks but I can easily say it was more than worth it. I wanted this event to be special, something big for anyone to enjoy and importantly to raise a lot of money for an incredible cause.

And I can definitely say we achieved that!

Notice how I said “we”, none of this would’ve been possible if it wasn’t for a community getting together to put on this incredible event.

People going out of their way to raise money for such a wonderful cause. People engaging with content centred around this event. Pe

Surprising my client with a special gift!

I wanted to surprise George with someone special from the charity event which took place recently. Sadly, George couldn’t make it to the event but his incredible mum did!

George’s mum told me that he wore this medal all day🥹

What a legend he is, always brining smiles to everyone’s faces💪
