I am a Loughborough University Sport and Exercise Science Graduate and have worked within strength and conditioning for 12 years including elite sport for Olympic and paralympic medallists in various sports including Weightlifting, Volleyball, Golf, Cycling, Athletics, Basketball, Rugby, Football, Badminton, Table tennis and Swimming.
Alongside my MSc in applied sport and exercise I also completed my Sports Massage accreditation, which stemmed from first-hand experience of its benefits throughout my 15 year career as part of the GB and England weightlifting team. This for me formed a vital part of staying injury free, optimising recovery, managing stress and reducing time spent rehabilitating injuries when preparing for multiple commonwealth games, European and worlds championships.
My sports massage work has seen me treat a range of clients from the every-day desk worker and recreational sports people to full time elite athletes including Tokyo Olympic Weightlifting silver medallist Emily Campbell, Team AOD Crossfit games athletes and international and commonwealth games weightlifting athletes.
Day to day you’ll also find me coaching weightlifting to the masses from complete beginners up to international level athletes. I am head weightlifting coach for Team Training Programming and also Blueprint Training Worcester. If you hadn’t gathered I like weightlifting, but when I’m not weightlifting or working I am happiest when I’m with my daughter, fiancée and my dog on staycations and long weekends away by the beach or countryside.
