In short, I found the gym in 2018 after University, after a series of unfortunate life happenings, I felt into clinical depression, something I am proud to own, and I think it’s important to do so. 

 

I was a rookie, I had no gym experience, and for the first 6 months I struggled to not leave the gym after 10 mins, feeling incredibly overwhelmed, defeated, and anxious about learning. But I kept at it!

​

I set out a plan on what I wanted to achieve over the coming years, improving my physical and mental health primarily through the gym. I quickly realised that the gym and improving the way I looked and felt wasn’t skin deep, it went much deeper than that for me as a person. 

 

The habits, discipline and confidence I built just in my first year of the gym allowed me to gain confidence I had never had before, which only opened my mind to all the other things I might be able to achieve.

 

In the 6 years that followed, I have been manager for a gym, coached many incredible people, climbed Kilimanjaro and Everest base camp for charities including MIND, and I have recently decided to train for an Ironman 70.3. Why? Because it fulfils me, and this fulfilment and completion has come from the gym, without it, I wouldn’t have the drive or confidence  needed to set out on adventures and self discovery.

 

My  life habits became healthier overall, I don’t really drink anymore, I don’t struggle to get up early in the morning, I have full days with purpose, and although it’s been a lot of hard work, I know anyone can achieve the same feeling of fulfilment.

 

Which leads me onto why I started Beyond Doubt coaching, as I’ve mentioned on the homepage, the best feeling you will ever get is reward in the journey you put effort into, not necessarily the destination, but the chasing of. Beyond Doubt means no luck, it means hard work, leaving no stones unturned if you can, a feeling of achievement that is purely from your own work, a sense of self and a resilient journey discovering your true capabilities. 

 

I have helped people transform physique, health and mind, and I hope I can be a part of your exciting journey ahead!
