We will measure only the variables relevant to you and your goals and re-measure them at regular intervals to ensure that we’re heading in the right direction.

Via email, voice messaging and the app. We’ll cover most things in our scheduled check-ins, and I’ll let you know the times I’m available to respond to anything else.

As you complete the scheduled workouts within the app you can make notes, leave comments and mark them as ‘completed’. I see all of these! You can choose to have our main check-ins either by phone or video chat. These are scheduled in advance and we’ll definitely get through a lot if you’ve been getting the workouts in and giving the new habits a good go!

Between twenty minutes and one hour. This depends on your goals, the time you have available and the frequency with which we can programme them into your week.

Yes, you can – depending on your goals of course. We will utilise the space and time that you have available to get you the best possible results. Gyms can be very useful but if they are not an option, we will be creative with our design of workouts in terms of resistance, mobility and cardiovascular challenge.

The Body Movement Assessment Protocol was created to provide a consistent way of looking at how clients move, within the context of online personal training. You’re asked to perform twelve movements to the best of your ability, as shown through the demonstrations in the app. This collection of recorded movements coupled with your consultation responses and requirements enables your programme to be uniquely tailored to you. I can identify strengths, areas which need work, and things we need to be particularly careful of when prescribing exercises. Crucially, the M.A.P. gives you a recorded ‘benchmark of movement’ which is always good to compare yourself against as mobility and stability improves over time. The Body M.A.P. is exclusive to Achieve Your Objective.

The Guided Movement Screen is a more in-depth version of the Body M.A.P. for those in the Intervention Package. It is performed live through video conferencing, with direct instruction and immediate feedback given. This is an opportunity for me to provide on-the-spot reassurance and customisation for any movements that you may have concerns about.

All the exercises are designed for you, following your consultation as well as your movement analysis so the training you will be doing will be within your capabilities. In addition, there are video demonstrations and descriptions for every exercise. If you’d like direct feedback you can record yourself doing the movement within the app.

It might be necessary to purchase a few inexpensive items, especially if the workouts are non-gym based or specific mobility work is required at home. This will be communicated to you as soon as your consultation and movement analysis have been completed.

Just the app. Everything you need is inside. A link will be sent to you upon signing up.

You’ll be getting personal coaching to learn and practice better nutritional habits, as opposed to dietary dogma. There’ll no doubt be foods you eat less of, and foods we’ll look to increase in your day, but the idea is that we move away from the idea of having to be ‘strict’ to achieve your goals.

For a few days simply take a picture of everything that you eat and drink, and save it to the ‘Tracking’ section of the app. There is room to add comments and details as you go. Together we’ll use this wealth of honest information to guide us into making positive, yet realistic changes.

You can. Your goals might well have nothing to do with anything affected by alcohol; this is your journey. Let’s have an honest chat about what you’re trying to achieve and agree what can be realistic within the broader context of your life.

Food is best enjoyed and savoured, rather than restricted and measured. Exercise and movement can be done for its own sake or for a specific goal but needs to leave you feeling better after you’ve done it, and/or closer to that goal.

I have been a coach for over 20 years, working mainly with busy professional individuals in London, UK, to achieve performance and aesthetic improvements. I have worked together with clients to consistently find solutions to get results despite the most challenging of situations. I have taken a keen interest in coaching nutrition (as well as effective, entertaining exercise) over the last five years, qualifying with and working for Precision Nutrition. For more about my journey click here.

I can understand this sentiment, especially with the ever-increasing amount of information out there, much of it conflicting. I can also understand the feeling that one is “intelligent enough to work out what to do and get on with it”. Intelligence, however, has nothing to do with it. Clearly, neither does ever-increasing availability to random knowledge. What works, long term, for any given individual is their ability to identify and focus on what is possible given their time-sapping schedule, and making that happen, consistently. That is what coaching really helps with, and that is why it is so effective.

This programme isn’t magic, and you do have to decide to make a change to the status quo in order to experience results. Time is finite. No-one is going to give you time you add some self-care into your day – you’re going to have to take that time back and defend it. This coaching will help you identify where that time can be created and provide the guidance and support to get the most out these windows of opportunity.

Yes. Just not from Achieve Your Objective. Meal plans, no matter how ‘bespoke’ or ‘calorifically perfect for you’ are the very opposite of what fosters long-term success. After working with Achieve Your Objective, one of the goals is for you to feel comfortable in any situation making decisions which are positive for your goals, though selections, how you eat, and other subtle nuances. Yes, we will discuss the best things to buy when ‘out and about’, things you can prepare when/if you have a little more time and yes there are recommended recipes, but meals plans are not part of this programme.

My prices are a genuine reflection of the time and care required to look after an individual within the parameters as outlined. When held up against the cost of in-person training, they represent amazing value for the high standard of attention received. If your situation would be better served by hiring the services of someone in-person as opposed to online, or someone other than me, I’ll be honest enough to advise that (that’s why there’s an ‘Apply Now’ button, as opposed to ‘Buy Now’).

The coaching packages are delivered in 12-week blocks, and it is recommended that you give it the full 12 weeks to see real changes. Payments are collected every 4 weeks, unless you pay for the block in full at the outset. All payments are handled through the secure online payments system.

No contract. It’s recommended that you follow a package of coaching for a minimum of 12 weeks to see, cement and build on the habits and successes. There’s no obligation however, and you can cancel at any time and get a refund on any unused weeks.

The programme is designed with busy professional individuals in mind and so acknowledges the fact that you may well be travelling over the duration of the course. The habits are ‘portable’, and the training routines will adapt to maximise the time and space available even if both are minimal.

This depends on what kind of holiday you’re planning to have! It might well be prudent to wait until your return before staring something new. On the other hand, a change of scene can be a great facilitator for change… contact me here if you’re weighing up the decision and I can hopefully advise!

Yes it can, in all probability. I’ll need to know full details of what your schedule entails so that everything we do is complimentary to the existing plan and event.

The coaching – training and nutrition – is personalised so there isn’t a facility to do a ‘joint package’. Two individuals can of course start at the same time and co-ordinate with and motivate each other, but the programmes and attention will be individual.

You’ll need to speak with your doctor to get clearance or approval to commence any new programme of training. This applies in person, as well as online, if you have a pre-existing injury or condition. This service is aimed at improving health through a range of parameters but does not diagnose nor treat injuries or medical conditions.

Yes I do, with limited availability these days due to the munchkin, and existing commitments to long-standing clients. I’m based at the W Hotel in central London, UK. E-mail me directly to enquire.

We’ll have a conversation about how happy you are with your journey, and where you’d like to go next! Some people are so happy with the changes thus far that they repeat the programme (either with fresh habits or deeper focus on the ones already covered). Others prefer to move on to the Maintenance Plan. A few have “chosen their own adventure” and gone for bespoke programming for a specific challenge. Or we can digitally shake hands and you can simply take your newly (or re-built) exercise and nutritional skills forward, with confidence.
