Meet James
Certified Personal Trainer
I've spent over 20 years working in IT, navigating the same challenges that many professionals in desk-based roles face daily. Long hours in front of screens, endless meetings, tight deadlines, and the constant pressure to perform—all while neglecting my own physical health.
I know what it’s like to feel stiff, fatigued, and mentally drained after a full day at the office. I understand the creeping lower back pain, the tight shoulders, and the postural imbalances that come from years of sitting in the same position. I’ve lived through the struggle of trying to balance a demanding career with the need to stay active and healthy.
That lived experience led me to retrain as a personal trainer, specialising in helping professionals—particularly those in the legal and finance sectors—overcome the physical challenges of desk-bound work.
Now, as a Level 4 Personal Trainer, Certified Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Lower Back Pain Management Specialist, I use my unique perspective to create practical, efficient, and highly effective training programmes tailored specifically for professionals like you.
I don’t just train clients—I coach professionals to improve their health in a way that complements their career, rather than competing with it. Whether you’re struggling with chronic back pain, poor posture, stress-related tension, or simply a lack of time to focus on fitness, I can help you implement realistic, sustainable strategies that fit seamlessly into your routine.
My approach is simple:
✔ Tailored fitness solutions for desk-bound professionals
✔ Pain management and postural correction for long-term health
✔ Time-efficient training that delivers measurable results
✔ A no-nonsense, supportive coaching style that works for busy professionals
If you’re ready to take control of your health without disrupting your career, I’d love to help.

Lower Back Pain Specialist
Are you or your firm spending longer at your desk during lockdown? Most of my clients have had to endure longer hours than normal, and perhaps you have too. Thankfully we've worked together on appropriate exercises to make them near bulletproof for the endless conference calls that have all moved to video meetings.
If you're a low back pain sufferer, I'll devise a programme including strengthening the muscles that support the spine, while improving mobility and increasing postural awareness.
Acute and chronic lower back pain can feel debilitating and a barrier to exercise. I can help you by providing a full assessment of your pelvis, hip, foot/ankle, shoulder, and spine and devise structured exercises that are sensitive to your postural, movement and weight bearing difficulties.
