Program

- GYM

The Athlete program is a 13 week coaching program for performing artists or the athletically inclined who want to become stronger, more powerful, faster and more flexible.
Stay industry ready no matter if you're on the stage,

on set or back in your day job.

SIGN UP

Let me guess...

You've been trying to get stronger and more powerful but nothing you are doing seems to be working in a tangible way.
You've done some gym programs but they're not specific enough (you're not training to be a body builder) and have no focus on flexibility.
You're maybe a little confused and starting to just go in circles with toxic diet culture advice and need a fresh perspective.

It doesn't have to be that way...

You can get stronger, whilst improving your flexibility, fitness and power.

Here's the breakdown:

Structure

To start with we need some structure in our training to achieve specific goals. The constant 'mixing it up' is not helping you achieve your goals. We need strong and technically correct movement patterns such as Squat, Hinge, Push, Pull, Press, Lunge and gait. Safe movement patterns mean we can build into strong, dynamic and athletically explosive leaps and kicks.

Specifiicty

Breaking up your training into specific parts and focusing on them in isolation helps you to and get the most out of your separate components of fitness. The athlete program starts with a baseline structure you can tailor to improve what needs it most (strength, fitness, flexibility.) I can help show you what specifically needs work.

Freedom

I give you the tools, structure and specificity. You have the freedom to tailor it to you and freedom to schedule your sessions when it suits your lifestyle best. I'll encourage skill based movement or classes to go alongside this program. I'll give you access to my On-Demand classes which have more primal based and expressive movements styles for added variety.

Here's how we do it:

1 / Step One

We begin the onboarding process by you filling out a Health PAR-Q and consultation form.

2 / Step Two

I can then assess your forms and work with you to tailor your exercise plan, program and nutrition.

3 / Step Three

We work together closely and I help you stay accountable to your goals, plan and overcome any barriers together as they arise.

How is the Athlete program structured?

Strength:

The strength sessions are broken into a three day split which are;

Full body (triphasic training principles)
Unilaterals & Endurance
Plyometric training

Fitness:

For the fitness portion I'll expose you to different fitness training techniques:

HIIT Sprints
Fartlek Training (walk, jog, run)
Run, Swim, Bike or a conditioning metabolic circuit

Flexibility:

To encourage and keep the joints limber there is always a dynamic Warm up a guided Cool down at the end of strength sessions and 8 different Add on stretching toolkits you can add to your schedule depending on what area of your body needs more flexibility focus.

Training Blocks:

There are three training blocks which each last four weeks. This is so you can master your technique and form and begin to progressively overload and actually increase your strength, fitness and flexibility. Constantly switching things up will keep you generally healthy but it's not as potent and effective as having more structure.

Triphasic training:

The triphasic training approach helps build strength in a three part sequence. First Isometrically at the hardest part of the movement, then the eccentric phase being lengthened then putting it all together in a power tempo. To learn more about this training methodology read the book 'Triphasic Training: A Systematic Approach to Elite Speed and Explosive Strength Performance' - by Ben Peterson and Cal Dietz.

Unilaterals & Endurance:

Unilaterals simply means training one arm or one leg at a time. This is a great way to even up strength imbalances or address asymmetries with-in the body. Endurance training will have you holding positions isometrically rather than eccentrically and concentrically. This means you'll be training different types of strength needs for different tasks.

Plyometrics:

Plyometric training means, jumps and leaps. These help build resilience and preparedness in your joints for different loads and angles you'll place your body in. It will help you improve your height and explosiveness in your leaps.

Why I created this program

I created this program for people like myself who need some extra care and consideration when starting a training program.

The demands of a performance artist are more unique and specific than the average Jo. Your training program needs to reflect this.

This program is for the athletically minded and someone committed to achieving serious performance based goals. It's so important to not only build strength and resilience but to ward off injuries. It will give you focus and intention to your strength training. It'd best done when you're not booked on a big job.

If you're serious about your work, maintaining and building physical capabilities is actually apart of your responsibilities as a movement artist. Your body is your tool. It's our job to keep ourselves physically fit, mobile, strong and dynamic in a way that is healthy and nourishing.

*I wouldn't recommend this is program if you're currently booked in a show season or booked on a highly demanding job.

Athlete FAQs

There are 3 x 4 week training blocks.

I will review your workout comments Monday - Friday and give advice throughout. It's proven that our bodies need time to consolidate and adapt to exercises so constantly 'switching things up' can actually halt your progress. This is why your workouts will be the same for four week cycles.

If you are looking for more variety in your weekly program, that is where the On-Demand Fitness Studio will help to inject some spice and variety into your weekly exercise flow! You'll get the best of both worlds. Structure and variety.

Yes, I have 8 years experience as an in In person, personal trainer. I have alternate exercise options available for every exercise which takes into consideration common injuries and movement limitations.

I recommend getting in touch with me first so I can understand your injury and see if online group training is right for you in this stage of your recovery.

Please note: Whilst this program gives alternate exercise options, personalised exercise selection is not included in the pre made program. For a specific and tailored program please consider 1 on 1 online coaching. I am not a Physio / Osteo and can not diagnose or treat injuries but happy to 'work around' them with you.

You cannot cancel once you have started online coaching.* This is a 13 week commitment you need to be fully ready and onboard with to complete. Once you sign up to the program you are liable to pay for the program in full, regardless if you decide to stop completing workouts or adopt new habits. This is so you can't quit on yourself when the going gets tough.

This is also because I give many valuable resources upfront that you can download or listen / watch and use for life. It would not be fair to expect a refund from my many years of knowledge I'm sharing with you.

*I would offer a refund on any remaining time in the program in an extreme case where you can no longer benefit from the program and will take this on a case by case approach.

Yay! How exciting. Going on holiday is a part of your life, you can still eat sensibly and workout. Just let me know in advance and I can help you to carry on exercising and eating in a way that makes sense for you while on your holiday.

I do offer one week pauses, but I don't recommend this in your first 13 weeks.

You must give a minimum of two weeks notice for me to process this pause.

If I go on holiday I'll let you know before you sign up my planned dates and in that instance If I decide to take a proper break we can put your program on a pause too. This will typically be just a week.

This sounds great! What next?

1. Enter your details and purchase your plan.

2. I will be in touch ASAP - Usually 24 hours later - Mon - Fri

4. We will begin with your prep week and then get started with your training and nutrition the following week.
