Tried it all before?Good. You’re exactlywho I train.

Diets, apps, a gym membership that quietly stopped getting used. Most people who come to me have been through all three. I’m Jay, and I build the plan around the week you actually have.

30 minutes at Foundry Gym or on the phone. No contract, no hard sell.

Most people don’t need more motivation. They need a plan that fits the week they actually have, and someone who notices when they start to drift.

That’s the job. Training, food and the habits that hold it together, with me checking in the whole way.

Three people who’d tried it all before.

Their results, their timelines and their words.

“I’d tried every diet and every gym. Jay was the first person who actually listened, built a plan around my life, and held me to it. Three stone down and I’ve kept it off.”

Post-injury rehab and training

“After my injury I thought I was finished with the gym. Jay rebuilt me from the ground up: patient, methodical, never rushed. I’m lifting more now than before I got hurt.”

Who’s actually coaching you?

Fair question. I’m Jay. I’ve trained for 17 years and coached for 13, in Kings Heath, across South Birmingham and online with people who’ve never met me in person.

There’s no sales team and no junior trainers. You train with me. I’ll push you harder than you’d push yourself, and I’ll start from wherever you are on day one.

It starts with a 30-minute chat.

We talk through what you’ve tried, what got in the way, and what you want this time. Worst case, you get half an hour of straight advice and a brew.

  1. A free chat

    Your goals, your training history and what’s held you back before. No pressure either way.

  2. Your plan

    A programme built around your body, your schedule and the result you want.

  3. Train and track

    We train, we measure, we adjust. Every week has a point to it.

  4. Keep the results

    Stronger, fitter, leaner, with the habits to hold on to it long after we’re done.

Between sessions, I’m a message away.

Most progress happens on the days we don’t train. You get WhatsApp access to me, check-ins on training and food, and a plan that changes when your week does.

  • Nutrition guidance that fits a normal day, and bespoke guidance on 1-2-1 Monthly.
  • Weekly video check-ins if you train online.
  • Monthly body composition tracking on 1-2-1 Monthly.
  • Rehab-aware programming, alongside your physio if you have one.
  • Specialist Level 4 training in weight management, obesity and diabetes.

What it costs.

Most people start with Fresh Start, then move to monthly once we’ve found our feet. No membership until you know it’s for you.

Questions people ask first.

I’m really unfit. Will I embarrass myself?

The first session is the hardest part, and after that it’s just progress. Starting from where you are is the job.

Where do you train people?

I’m based at Foundry Gym in Kings Heath and coach clients across South and Central Birmingham. Outdoor sessions use Kings Heath Park, Cannon Hill Park or a green space near you. Online coaching works anywhere.

I’ve got an old injury.

Rehab-aware programming is a big part of what I do, and I’m happy to work alongside your physio. We’ll go through it properly on the free chat.

How does online coaching work?

You get a fully bespoke programme, weekly video check-ins and WhatsApp access to me between sessions.

Is nutrition included?

Monthly 1-2-1 coaching includes bespoke nutrition guidance. Every other option gets practical guidance that fits your normal day.

What if I’m on holiday or miss a session?

Life happens. Reschedule with notice, pause the direct debit or move your sessions. It’s training, not a subscription trap.

How do I pay?

Fresh Start and blocks are paid up front. Monthly coaching is direct debit, with no contract and 14 days’ notice to pause.

What happens when a block ends?

Carry on monthly, drop to maintenance, or take the habits and go. Either way the results are yours to keep.

What should I bring?

Comfortable kit, indoor trainers, a water bottle and a towel. Everything else is at the gym.

Right, enough reading.

The free chat takes 30 minutes and could save you years of starting over. Fill this in or WhatsApp me. I usually reply the same day.
