"Helped me smash through my goals" - Joseph F
As a climber, I have always been fairly lean, as that's the nature of the discipline. The gym that I have used is either the rocks outside or climbing walls. I had tried a lot of different training techniques to help improve my explosive power to my muscular endurance, but I had reached a plateau and was finding it really frustrating that I just couldn't move forward. I wanted to try anything to improve my climbing and thought of going to the dark side (The Gym). I have not been to the gym for a long time and back then it was for a different discipline (rugby). I was very uncertain what type of program and training techniques would help enhance my climbing. Without any thought into what to do or what program to use, I stupidly became a member of Greens Gym. After a about a month of using the gym, I was not really feeling any improvements, which made me start to think about getting help. I noticed a fair few of the members walking around with “sculptandshape.co.uk” on their t-shirts, so I looked it up online. I was very impressed with what Mike had to offer and so I e-mailed him with all the things I would want him to sort out. I received an e-mail from Mike arranging to meet to talk about my problems regarding my climbing. I met Mike at Greens gym and he said that I was his first climber and was ready for the challenge of helping me with my goals. Over the meeting, he asked a fair few questions about how I had tried to enhance my climbing, but the main question that stuck in my mind was about my nutrition, which I had totally forgot about and could have been a major reason why I had plateaud.
I liked Mike's way as he was very clear, professional and focused towards my goals. In the 8 months of being trained by mike, he had;
Mike's training sessions are not a walk in the park, but he does get results and knows how to make you feel good about working hard.
Thanks Mike for all your help and advice, even stuff not relating to my programmes! You've been a great personal trainer and mentor to me, making my 8 months with you very enjoyable.
All the best! Joseph F
