More Than Personal Training

A little about me & SJPT+

I believe our health is one of our greatest assets, and how we look after it can shape the quality of our lives.

For me, coaching has always been about more than fitness goals, physical appearance or performance. It's about building the strength, health and capacity to live life fully — to stay active, independent and capable as we age, reduce our risk of preventable disease, and have the energy and freedom to enjoy the things that matter most.

I believe we have so much potential, and that looking after our health helps us make the most of it.

That's why I created SJPT+ — More Than Personal Training.

Strength and movement are at the heart of what I do, but I know that what happens outside the gym matters just as much. How we eat, sleep, manage stress, connect with others and find purpose all influence how we feel, function and live.

My approach combines coaching, education, encouragement, accountability and enjoyment to help people make meaningful, sustainable changes — without forgetting to enjoy the process.

With seven years in the fitness industry, including four years building SJPT+, I've had the privilege of supporting hundreds of people across the South West.

Ultimately, I don't just want to help people get fitter. I want to help them build the health and capacity to experience more of what life has to offer.

Healthy first, then fit.
