FAQ

My name is Haydn, I've worked in the fitness industry for over 16 years as a personal trainer, senior coach as well as a mentor, manager and regional manager. I've worked with hundreds of clients over the years to help them all improve their lives: burn fat, build muscle and progress physically, mentally and emotionally. I'm a level 2 qualified strength and conditioning coach as well as functional movement screening certified. I have qualifications in movement screening as well as advanced programming and worked with people from general population to professional athletes. I've seen and worked with people from all walks of life with their own unique set of 'demands' to achieve. If anyone is able to help you take control of your life, its me!

Yes! with a but..... I have over 16 years experience and i have sat multiple advanced qualifications related to the health and fitness work from mobility screening to advanced programming. I've worked with hundreds of clients with minimal failures (clients who don't get what they want - 3 in total!) I have all the knowledge needed to make sure you get the results you want. BUT! That will only work on two conditions: 1- you adhere to the plan and follow it with full commitment and 2- there is open communication: if something doesn't work or you don't enjoy it or you struggle etc, I need to know so I can make amendments. On that basis, yes, I guarantee results to all clients.

This totally depends on you. My average client lifespan with me is usually 18 months. Realistically, if you was trying to get the most out of me in the shortest time possible, 3 months would be long enough for me to educate you, teach you and give you plenty of training and nutrition plans that allow you to make long term progress and changes (providing you continue to apply what you learn). Because of this I have multiple options on packages: a rolling monthly so you can choose the length you use my services, or pre set, pre paid program lengths which are at a discounted rate (per month, compared to the rolling monthly)

Firstly, we will have a full consultation so I can understand fully where you are currently, what you've tried before, what you want to achieve and what you are willing to do/commit to achieve it. Once we have done this, we agree on what your path is going to look like based on a mix between your desired goal and realistic goal. From there i create your profile in the coaching app. 

You will have an app to download that will be bespoke completely to you. There is a workout plan where each session is explained with 'how to' videos for the exercises. You are also able to record your workouts in duration and efforts as well as add additional activity you do in your calendar. There is a nutrition plan based on your goals with menus and recipes to help you achieve your daily food intake. There is also metric tracking for sleep, steps, Blood pressure, Heart rate and body composition photos so we can get a complete overview of your progress. 

You can message me through the app (or most clients use WhatsApp) and we can make daily reviews and adaptations as needed. I'm here for you on a check in schedule you need to help you: can be daily - can be monthly. All elements of the plan can be changed as frequently as needed in a matter of minutes, this is how we make sure the plan is peaked for you as needed.

If you have 1:1 sessions with me, you will receive all of the above, with the addition of face to face sessions held at Imperial Bodies in Daventry. Those sessions are an opportunity for you to use as you see fit: they could be used as a session in your workout plan, a session working on a specific weakness or movement or a sit down session to overlook nutrition or lifestyle or whatever you feel you will benefit from in that session. 

I don't prescribe a specific diet method. Sure, Keto, Carnivore, Paleo, Vegan etc all work, but they all fail as well. What's important is the calorie total and finding an eating method that you enjoy and that you can stick to for a long time. If keto is a diet plan you enjoy and can stick to, we can use it. But, if after 2 weeks you are craving carbs too much and end up binging and this becomes a regular pattern, then the diet doesn't work. I prefer to work on a balanced diet plan that has proteins, fats and carbs, which can be manipulated based on what works for you. The important part is calories in, calories out. We work together finding a plan that works - but before you start thinking: the burgers and fries only diet isn't an option!

... And I wouldn't expect you to. For most people, the gym is a means to an ends. They work out to achieve the goal at hand. In reality, most of my clients only go to the gym 2-4 sessions per week. Sure, some people also play sports which count as part of their weekly total sessions but I'm training general public with real jobs, not professional athletes.

We also take into consideration your start point. if you've never trained before, going to the gym 4-5 days a week might be too much. We program based on your start point and needs and aim to progress. But, if you love the gym, we can plan for 5-6 sessions however, recovery is just as important.

My training plans cover what I consider to be important for health and fitness: mobility work, resistance training and conditioning work. Again, depending on your experience level, the exercises used will differ and progress as you build experience.
