The Power Plant

Most people don't need another diet.

They don't need another 6-week transformation challenge.

They don't need to spend hours on a treadmill.

What they do need is STRENGTH.

The strength to carry shopping without thinking about it.
The strength to play with their children and grandchildren.
The strength to hike, travel, work, garden and enjoy life without feeling held back by aches, pains or poor fitness.

For years I've helped MEN and WOMEN, aged 35-60, build real strength and fitness that lasts. Many of my clients have been training with me for years because our focus isn't on quick fixes or chasing the latest fitness trend.

We focus on becoming stronger.

Not just looking strong.

My own background in competitive rugby and athletics taught me the value of consistency, hard work and progressive training. Those same principles form the foundation of every programme I deliver.

Whether you're completely new to strength training, returning after time away, or simply want expert guidance and accountability, I'll help you train safely, effectively and with purpose.

You don't need to be fit before you start.

YOU JUST NEED TO START.

If you'd like to find out whether personal training is right for you, send me a message (or email [email protected]). We can have a chat about your goals and see if we're a good fit.

Let's build strength for life.

In 24 days, I will be running London Marathon for the first time. I was very fortunate to get a ballot place but I am still running for charity because, well, why not? My fitness work in care homes has given me a lot of exposure to dementia sufferers and so it made perfect sense to raise money for Dementia UK. Link below if you’d like to sponsor me.

I’m not a natural runner, the training continues to be gruelling and my 49-year-old knees and ankles don’t always love me. But I have a strong engine from keeping myself moving and lifting weights. What we do at The Power Plant keeps me fit for life. And will keep me going for 26 miles very soon!

How is your FEBRUARY CHALLENGE going?
Lunch had shallots🧅, peppers🫑, sun-dried tomatoes🍅 and spinach🌱 so we’re already well on our way to hitting 5x fruit/veg. (Had a kiwi 🥝 with breakfast, too.)

A quick 10 pages while we eat and then out for a walk.

How are you getting on?
What are you eating? 🥦
What are you reading? 📚
Where are you walking? 🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻

It will be FEBRUARY next week!!

We have deliberately not jumped on the January fitness bandwagon of making people feel bad about what they ate/drank over the Christmas period. We are not here for quick fixes or to make people feel guilty. We want people MOVING and EATING right to be fit and healthy for living LIFE.

SO WE HAVE A CHALLENGE.
5...10...15

Every day.
It's very simple.
5 fruits and veg every day will get you thinking about the food you put in your body.
10 minutes reading for your mindfulness, to take a step away from screens and people. (You could always change this to 10 pages.)
15 minutes of walking to keep you moving and mobile. This should be EXTRA to what you normally do. (Take a friend with you.)

That's it. We'll be checking in each day with updates.
WHO'S IN?!?!?!?!

It's time.
It's been a bit of a wet and miserable week. But the Power Plant members keep turning up and keep moving.
The great news is that the darkest part of the year is officially OVER. We've stayed positive, we've kept the workouts varied and we've shown we are made of tougher stuff.
