What This Coaching Actually Is

This is not traditional personal training.

It’s a guided coaching process that helps you:

  • Rebuild physical confidence

  • Train hard when it’s productive

  • Recover properly when it’s not

  • Develop the judgement to manage yourself long-term

The goal isn’t short-term output.

The goal is durable capability.

The Coaching Process

1. Initial Clarity Assessment

We start by understanding how your body is currently functioning.

This includes:

  • Key movement and capacity markers

  • Strength and readiness indicators

  • Energy, stress, pain, and recovery patterns

  • Training history and current life demands

This tells us where it’s safe to push — and where restraint protects progress.

2. Adaptive Training & Coaching

Training is built around your real capacity, not a template.

Depending on readiness, this includes:

  • Strength work (heavy enough to matter)

  • Power and explosiveness (earned, not forced)

  • Conditioning that builds capacity, not fatigue debt

  • Mobility and recovery where it supports output

Some days we push.

Some days we protect.

3. Ongoing Signal Interpretation

We use a small number of meaningful signals:

  • Subjective feedback (energy, confidence, pain)

  • Select objective markers (e.g. performance consistency, recovery trends)

No micromanagement.

No obsession with data.

The aim is to restore trust in your judgement — not outsource it to an app.

The Results Speak for Themselves 

  • II’ve been training with Jon for about a year and a half, and the experience has been truly transformative. From day one, he took the time to understand my goals, my fitness level, and any limitations I had, and then created a program tailored exactly to me. I would recommend Jon to anyone who wants not just a trainer, but a true coach and partner on their fitness journey.

  • The time I've spent with Jon has been life changing. I came to him weakened by mobility issues due to multiple knee and arm surgeries and treatments. He has not just restored my strength and confidence but put me back in touch with my body. His boundary-challenging firmness overlaid by a "whole system" view, compassion and wry good humour is a golden combination that succeeds on so many levels.

What You Get From Coaching

  • The ability to manage yourself confidently between sessions

  • Private coaching built around your life, not templates

  • Clear direction without being infantilised

  • Strength, power, and fitness that feel available — not fragile

  • Fewer flare-ups and fewer resets

This is ongoing work. Most clients work with me over months, not weeks — because rebuilding capacity properly takes time.

How this approach works

What Success Actually Looks Like

Success isn’t exhaustion or constant PRs.

It looks like:

  • Training without fear or hesitation

  • Stable energy week to week

  • Strength and power that keep progressing

  • Knowing when to push and when to pull back

  • Not needing constant oversight to stay on track

Performance follows — because the foundation is solid.
