Train with me

One to One Personal Training

Working one to one means the session is built around you, not around whatever class is on the schedule.

One to one

What working one to one actually buys you

Searching for a personal trainer near you turns up a lot of people who will count your reps. That is not the useful part. The useful part is somebody deciding what you should be doing this month and changing it when the evidence says to.

In practice that means the session is built around your body and your week rather than a template. If your shoulder is cranky, we work around it. If you have had four hours of sleep, we do not pretend otherwise and grind through the session you were scheduled for. If something is going well, we keep going rather than switching for the sake of novelty.

You also get someone watching how you move. Most technique problems are invisible from the inside, which is why people can repeat the same slightly wrong pattern for years and conclude they are simply not built for a lift. Usually they are, and it is a cue away.

Sessions run in Centerburg and people travel in from across Knox County. If the drive is the obstacle rather than the training, say so, because online coaching exists for exactly that.

What a session looks like

How it works

We start where you actually are, agree what you want out of it, and adjust as you get stronger.

Sessions run in Centerburg and are open to anyone travelling in from Mount Vernon and across Knox County. If you have never trained before, that is a normal place to start and not something to apologise for.

Technique comes before load. Adding a little each week and being able to repeat it beats training to exhaustion once.
