Result driven, personal, and enjoyable — coaching that gets you to the goal in the most efficient way it can.

Sean has always been someone who enjoyed the gym and playing sport. In his late teens he took sport and fitness courses in the UK, found that the fitness side was what genuinely interested him, and that was the first step into personal training. It turned into a career because it stayed a passion.

In one sentence: he helps people improve their health and fitness so they can feel confident, energetic and capable in their daily lives. Sessions are result driven and personal — fun, but challenging — with the goal reached in the most efficient way available. He coaches clients from 16 to 75, and adapts: more patience and closer attention to form with an older or newer client, a more relaxed and technical tone with someone who already knows their way around training.

Every client also gets the Living Fit app — the day's session, the progression state and the measurements all in one place, so nobody is relying on memory. Outside work he plays tennis and football, and keeps up with the industry through online courses and workshops.

Belief

Strength, rest and progress work together

You don't build strength or muscle without recovery. All three have to be in the plan.

Belief

Challenged, not broken

“No pain, no gain” is a motivator, not a method. What matters is progress over time, safely and injury free.

Belief

Measure the right thing

Body fat testing if you're toning, progressive overload if you're chasing size or strength. Different goals, different proof.

Belief

Work hard, enjoy it

Clients should leave having worked their socks off and still call it an enjoyable session.
