Bespoke training, smart nutrition and proper accountability — built around your life, not the other way round. Stronger, leaner, more confident, without living in the gym.
I've spent over a decade in the fitness industry helping people improve their health, fitness and confidence. After completing the FLF Internship in 2019, I built my coaching working with clients of every background and ability — and earned a reputation for a supportive, results-driven approach.
I've worked with everyone from complete beginners taking their first steps to experienced trainees chasing the next level, and helped transform hundreds of people through personalised programming, high coaching standards and a real focus on technique. Lasting success comes from a tailored approach combined with accountability, consistency, and a willingness to be challenged.
Nutrition matters just as much: sustainable results come from a strategy that fits your lifestyle, not unrealistic restriction. I pride myself on being professional, dedicated and approachable — with a sense of humour that keeps the process enjoyable — and I'll go above and beyond to support you both inside and outside the gym.
You shouldn't have to live in the gym, follow extreme diets, or give up the things you enjoy to get in shape. The approach here is practical training, smart nutrition, and habits that slot into your week — so the results aren't just achievable, they last.
It's a tried-and-tested system, refined over a decade with hundreds of clients from complete beginners to seasoned lifters. The goal is simple: stronger, healthier, and more confident, through a process that works in the real world — not just on paper.

Real feedback from people who put in the work and got the results.
"I was sceptical about online coaching if I'm honest — thought I'd just get a generic PDF and be left to it. Couldn't have been more wrong. Ste actually replies, tweaks things when my work shifts change, and 5 months in I'm down nearly 3 stone. First time anything's ever stuck."
"My form was all over the place and I kept tweaking my back. Two months training with Ste at FLF and my squat and deadlift have gone up more than the whole year before. He doesn't just count reps — he actually coaches you. Sessions fly by too."
"Two kids and a full-on job, so I'd basically given up on getting in shape. Ste built everything around my actual week instead of some plan that assumes you live in the gym. The weekly check-ins kept me honest. Down a belt size and I've got my energy back."
The things people usually want to know before getting started.
No. Most of my clients start as complete beginners. The plan is built around your current level, not anyone else's — and everything is explained clearly so you're never left guessing.
You get a personalised training and nutrition plan through an app, weekly check-ins, and direct message access to me. It's the same coaching as in-person, just on your schedule.
1-to-1 means I'm with you in the gym for every session. Online gives you the full plan and accountability at a lower price point. Plenty of clients combine both.
Most clients notice changes in 4–6 weeks. Visible transformations typically take 12 weeks of consistency. I'll be honest with you about realistic timeframes for your goal.
I build nutrition guidance around foods you actually enjoy. No bland chicken and rice plans you'll quit in a week.
No. Your training programme is built around what you have access to — full commercial gym, home setup with minimal kit, or anything in between. If you train at home, your plan reflects that.
Yes, within reason. Tell me about it at the consultation and I'll adapt the programme. For recent or serious injuries I'll ask you to get the all-clear from a physio first.
A plan only works if it fits your life. My job is building something you can stick to, then holding you accountable to it.
