1-to-1 Personal Training
Train Smarter.
For Longer.
I'm Joel Thomas — a CrossFit Level 1 trainer with a background in competitive football and running. I coach 1-to-1 sessions built around your goals, your technique and habits you can actually keep.
About Me
Sport shaped how I coach
I've played football for 20 years, including at semi-professional level, and spent time in the USA playing college football at national college level. While I was out there I also raced on the track and came away as a conference champion runner.
Alongside that I'm a CrossFit Level 1 certified trainer, which is where a lot of my strength and conditioning work comes from. Football taught me how to prepare, running taught me patience, and CrossFit taught me how much technique matters.
All of that shapes the way I train people. I'm less interested in one hard week and more interested in helping you train intelligently, get stronger and fitter, and build habits that keep you active and performing well for years — training smarter, for longer.

Strength & Fitness
Getting stronger and fitter together, so your training carries over into everyday life.
Technique First
Movement quality before load. Good technique is what lets you keep training for years.
Consistency
Sessions you can repeat week after week beat anything you can only do once.
