Working with Alan at Bristol City FC helped me to improve my understanding of the role of strength and conditioning in sport. His knowledge has helped me to become a better athlete which has improved my game and considerably reduced the occurrence of injuries.

It is hard to find a trainer that can offer a bespoke service and be able to adapt training sessions specific to an individual’s lifestyle, fitness levels and expectations at all levels. Alan can offer all of this and more. His work with Reading football club and referred private clients is of the highest standard. Alan’s relaxed, yet encouraging manner, is infectious combined with a unique ability to take people to new fitness levels beyond their expectations. He has a wide knowledge base from which to develop programs using a whole variety of different methods. He develops sessions that are never boring, always challenging and ensure you reach new heights.

I was very happy to have Alan as part of my team in the past and loved the different workouts & routines he would use every session, always mixing it up so you always had to adapt. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Over the last 10 years, Alan has worked with individuals from a wide variety of professional sports, including GB Judo, football, rugby, golf, UK strongman, boxing, Red Bull F1 and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
