Training Philosophy
My philosophy around training is that enjoyment and education will be the biggest indicator for success. Rehabilitation can often be a dull and unrewarding experience and while there are always challenges to overcome; it doesn’t mean that the road to recovery can’t be fun and enjoyable. In my sessions I aim to build autonomy and knowledge while keeping things interesting. Working around injuries where we need to and promoting long-term recovery.

PT Clients Reviews
Nina
"I started working with Liam nearly a year ago, after a knee injury had me out of action for 5 months. He designed my programs to build strength and mobility in my knee while focusing on my other fitness goals. Liam mixes up my programs regularly so they don't become stale. They are designed to deliver a full body workout that's challenging and varied, but he also takes into account my preferences... I don't do burpees! Working with Liam has totally changed my perspective on going to the gym, using weights, and shown me what I'm capable of."
Tom
"As someone with a spinal cord injury, I had struggled to find someone who could create a personalized program to meet my specific needs. I’ve been training with Liam for a year now and in that time I have noticed that my strength and flexibility have improved a lot. Every session with Liam is really fun and he makes every effort to make sure that you’re engaged and getting 100% out of the session. I would highly recommend him."
Jackson
"I haven't looked back since I started training with Liam. He knows how to build programs that work for you and deliver real results. He'll push you to the next level and give you the technique and drive you need to keep going."
