If a muscle feels “tight,” it’s usually not because it’s short…

…it’s because it can’t handle the load

Stretching might give short-term relief

But if you don’t build strength and tolerance, it’ll keep coming back.

Load the tissue

Get it resilient!

Back playing rugby 6 weeks ahead of schedule (after NHS rehab didn’t stick)

Jack came to me with a shoulder that just didn’t feel trustworthy

They’d already been through NHS rehab, but still had:
* That stuck shoulder feeling
* Pain with pressing and overhead work
* zero confidence returning to sport properly

The issue wasn’t effort

It was that the shoulder didn’t have enough capacity and control under real-world load, speed and fatigue

So we built the plan around what rugby actually demands

The rehab focus:
* Control in the positions that usually cause trouble
* Strength (cuff + scap + trunk) with proper progressive loading
* Speed + reactivity so it holds up under chaos, not just slow reps
* Graded contact exposure: pads → controlled contact → full training
* Checkpoints each week so we weren’t guessing

Jack returned to playing 6 weeks earlier than expected.

Training normally, no flare-ups, and (most importantly) the shoulder feels stable when tired, not just in the clinic

If your shoulder rehab has stalled:
You probably don’t need “more exercises”… you need the right progression and a plan that bridges gym to sport

DM me “SHOULDER” and I’ll tell you the first 3 things I check with instability/recurring pain

2025 was a proper rebuild year

New clinic space, new direction, and a lot of momentum

Webinars with , workshops, and closing a big chapter after 10 years coaching in

Still made time for a couple resets away, ticked off Valencia & Cardiff half, and rolled straight into London Marathon prep

Finishing the year building better systems for TRS to grow.

Grateful for it all

Merry Christmas from 🎄

Grateful for everyone who trusted the process this year; the rehab, the rebuild, and everything in between.

Enjoy the downtime, move a little, rest a lot, and we’ll be ready to go again in the New Year 💪

Return-to-play criteria exist for a reason.
Ignore it…
and the injury will come back sooner than you think

Don’t be that person

Let’s be honest… You can see a physio, a chiro, a PT, follow a rehab PDF, or get another “strengthen your glutes” programme.

So why work with me? From the outside, it can all look the same.

I believe rehab shouldn’t just get you out of pain, it should get you back to performing better than before.

Here’s what makes my approach different:

1️⃣ I don’t guess: I assess, plan, and progress With 10+ years as a Strength & Conditioning Coach and Sports Rehabilitator, I build a clear roadmap from injury → rehab → performance. The goal is independence, not endless sessions.

2️⃣ I’ve worked where performance actually matters Pro sport. NHS. MOD. That means high standards, real-world pressure, and rehab that works when it counts, not just in theory.

3️⃣ World-leading tech, used properly
I use because it gives objective data that actually guides decisions.
Not to look fancy.
Not to collect numbers.
But because I know what to do with it and how to turn data into progress you can feel.

4️⃣ Rehab + performance, not one or the other You don’t stop being an athlete because you’re injured. Your rehab should build strength, resilience, and confidence not just “calm things down”.

5️⃣ In-person or online, the standard stays the same Clear communication. Evidence-based decisions.
You’ll always know why you’re doing what you’re doing and how it moves you forward.

Done with quick fixes and fancy tools with no direction?

DM “PLAN” and I’ll show you the way forward.

Pain didn’t bring you in. Your standards did.

Most people don’t come to rehab because something hurts.

They come because something matters.

Running matters.
Lifting matters.
Playing with your kids matters.
Feeling like yourself again matters.

That’s the real “Wrapped” for us this year, your why.

300 hours of movement.
Hundreds of setbacks turned into comebacks.
A whole community choosing progress over perfection, one appointment at a time.

If this year taught us anything, it’s that you’re capable of far more than the injury that started your journey.

DM “2026” and let’s get you moving with clarity, confidence and purpose.

Most people do plyos completely wrong!

Not because the exercises are bad… but because there’s no structure.

Plyometrics aren’t “just jumps”

They’re how we rebuild the way your body absorbs and produces force so you can run, cut, and perform at your best again.

That’s why I use a clear, logical progression:
landings → extensive work → elastic, high-speed plyos.

Right intensity. Right order. Real results.

If you want my full plyometric framework,
comment “PLYOS” and I’ll send it over.

Most people don’t stay injured because they’re “broken.”

They stay injured because they keep choosing easy over effective.

Black Friday won’t change that.
But commitment will.

I’m not here to sell you a gimmick, a countdown timer, or some “5 spaces left” nonsense.
I’m here to work with people who are tired of circling the same injuries, the same limitations, and the same promises to themselves.

So instead of discounting the work, I’m rewarding the commitment

Same standard. Same depth. Same high-expectation coaching.

Nothing watered down. Nothing diluted.

This is for the people who want to move without fear, rebuild with purpose, and perform at a level they’ve talked about for years but haven’t yet claimed.

If that’s you, comment “COMMITTED” and I’ll send the details.

If it’s not… then this offer isn’t meant for you anyway.

Black Friday is about buying things.
This is about changing things.
