Dodging the showers to put up banners and deliver leaflets in the build up to Northstowe Hub's Midsummer Festival - just two weeks away on Saturday 20th June! ⛅🎶🥳

If you want to chat fitness feel free to find me on the day - I'll be wandering around with high vis on so I'll be very noticeable! 😅🦺💪

📣 Taking ShapeXchange to the next level - I'm officially Level 4 qualified in Strength & Conditioning!

After a lot of late nights finessing workout plans, agonising over technique, and staring blankly at my laptop screen maybe once or twice... I'm thrilled to say I've passed my Level 4 Strength & Conditioning course. 🎉

A massive thank you to my mates Jake, Kit & Matt for their help with my assessment videos - whether you were putting in the reps, being a better lifter than me 😅, or just nodding along convincingly to my rambling, I couldn't have got here without you 🙌

And for those wondering how it went, my assessor had this to say on my final assessment:
💬 "Excellent work! You took your client through a challenging and engaging session, working the whole body and ensuring that your client received appropriate instruction. You monitored their form well and allowed them time to complete the movements, particularly when they became fatigued. Overall, this was a very good assessment submission and you should be very proud of yourself."

I've been told I should be "very proud" - so I'm going to allow myself approximately 24 hours of smugness before getting back to the gym. 😄

For my clients, this means even more tools, techniques and knowledge in your corner. Looking forward to putting these skills into action to support your goals and get more great results!

📩 If you've been thinking about starting your fitness journey, now's the perfect time to get in touch.

🏡 Northstowe - this one's for you.

Three years ago, I started ShapeXchange as one of the very first personal trainers in this new town. I've trained your neighbours, your friends, and maybe even you - coming to your door with everything you need for engaging and effective sessions, or meeting you at my studio nearby in Longstanton.

I'm not a gym. I'm a local.

As a thank you to this community that has supported me from the start, local residents can book sessions with me from just £43 - that's a significant saving compared to the ~£60 per session being charged by commercial gyms.

What you get with me:
✅ Personal training at your home or in my quiet and private studio - with no gym membership needed
✅ A trainer who's part of this community and genuinely knows its people
✅ 5-star Google reviews from real local clients
✅ Someone who gives back - I help run the local charity Northstowe Hub in my spare time, and you might have seen me helping out at the Half Marathon, 5k and Running Festival by leading the warm-ups!

If you're thinking about starting your fitness journey, need advise with your current gym routine, or are stuck not knowing the right exercises to do - I'd love to chat. Send me your fitness goals, and we can have a no-pressure talk about how to make them happen.

📩 Drop me a message or check out my website today to get in contact.
Thank you.

I had a great time supporting the Cottenham 7k Fun Run with the pre-race warm-up on Saturday! Well done to everyone who took part, as well as all the volunteers and supporters who make brilliant community events like this possible 🙌👏

And if you're look for more than just a warm-up, I offer personal training and fitness classes too - whether it's motivation, structure, and expert advice in the build-up to a race day, or strength, mobility and balance training for day to day life, I've got you covered. 💪
