I’m not your typical Personal Trainer - I've been where you are - From 132kg in the corporate world to a fitness career in Malta
I’m not your typical 'born in the gym' personal trainer. In fact, my fitness career started aged 38, weighing 132kg and trapped in the corporate grind.
I know exactly how hard it is to take that first step, as I've been there myself and know exactly what it takes to get back on track.
The Corporate Climb vs The Scales
Back in 2005 after spending the majority of my working life climbing The UK Corporate Ladder, I decided that my life had to change. The money and the lifestyle was great but my life had been bought, I wasn’t healthy or happy and weighed 132kg!
I decided that I needed to put my health before my job, began to lose weight and started working my way back down the Corporate Ladder...
Trading the suit for the stopwatch
After finally leaving my ‘proper’ job in 2008, I started studying for a ‘real’ job and qualified as a Personal Trainer in September 2009. Since then I’ve ran marathons, boxed in Thailand, trained with my boxing heroes and done all sorts of things that I could only have dreamed of previously...it’s been amazing!
More importantly I understood how real weight loss works and what it actually takes personally, physically and mentally, to ensure it happens. This knowledge has proved invaluable in helping many clients achieve their goals, success is what makes me tick and achieving client goals is success to me.
Real Life Happens (Even for Trainers)
In 2015 the lure of my dream job in a boxing gym by the sea, brought me to sunny Malta and a lifestyle you just don’t get in the UK. In fact the lifestyle was so good, I put on a ‘bit’ of weight again!
It wasn’t ideal but after a few months of hard training and my increased knowledge as a Personal Trainer, I managed to lose 30kg far easier than before. The journey gave me the real understanding of the importance of fitness in my life and the many benefits most people do not recognize.
Now feeling better than ever, I no longer see fitness as something we should do when we get the time. For me it's vital for wellbeing, confidence and so much more...and I want to help others achieve the same
