Starting with a deadlift of 120 and now pulling 400 kilos the reason why I started coaching is because the years worth of injuries the year's worth of plateaus failed blocks and me just wanted to make the most of it and give back to people of what I wish I knew when I first started so I haven't just read about it I've lived it myself I've transformed hundreds of people around the world

And I've also put it into place for myself at the highest competitions I coach people whether it's your first day in a gym all the way to elite level strongman athletes so if you want to learn more about this follow the links below

The packages

Three ways to work with me, each explained in full — plus how the programmes are put together.

Online Coaching

Full coaching, delivered wherever you train.

Read the transcript

So this is what online coaching is the full package no matter where you are no matter what distance you are I will get you the best results so online coaching starts with a roadmap where you are now versus where you want to see yourself whether that's a competition or just a physique goal from here I then build your training and your nutrition program all tailored towards you with your structure with what

You can do and also it's not a cookie and cutter plan like majority of coaches nowadays now the real part that drives results the check-ins on a weekly basis Not only is it check -ins on the app but also communication for me through WhatsApp every single day The check-ins that you fill out on the app essentially ask you loads of questions throughout the week what your weight is How's your sleep and

How's your recovery been everything in more detail so I can make adjustments necessary to you This allows me to get you in the peak performance for your shows But also if you want to transform your physique in general So every week something gets changed in the check-in whether that's your programming whether that's your weights adjustment for a peeking block on your training or whether that's just something that is necessarily needed like

Your calories or your step count. So this is why results always come fast with full package on online coaching. Your results are made easy for you. If this is something you're interested in follow the links below and I'll get in touch with you.

Workout Programme Only

A training programme built for you, to run yourself.

Read the transcript

So this is what training programming on its own is. It's for someone that's already got their nutrition dialed in and just need their training programming and structure. So whether you're peaking for a comp or you're just looking to get in the best shape of your life and your nutrition is already in place, this is going to be the one that you could work on the best.

This is all laid out on a coaching app for you and again adjusted through the check-ins on a weekly basis and not a program that's just sent to all 50 people thinking that they're going to get the same results because that's not how it works.

It's all tailored towards you and your goals no matter what it is so linking this in with the check -ins all your sessions get logged and sent over to me for me to adjust throughout the check-in so with all of these you get video analysis as well send all your videos over to me I'll adjust any form that needs to be adjusted to make sure you're getting the best results possible

Nutrition Programme Only

A nutrition plan built for you, to run yourself.

Read the transcript

This is the full nutrition only programming package this is for someone who already has their training in check knows exactly what to do but just needs that guidance and accountability with their nutrition the exact same as the other packages you get your full check-in on a weekly basis which is all done on the app your nutrition on the app and you can log your nutrition for me on a day-to-day basis so

I can see what you're eating and if there's anything else extra that you've had in your program you also get WhatsApp support with me every single day where I apply to all my clients on a daily basis making sure everything is going perfect but also checking in on them to make sure they are all okay.

Programme Breakdown

How a programme with Alfie is put together.

Read the transcript

So with online coaching there's three packages for you to choose for let me break them down and give you the right advice to what one to choose so if you're looking to compete at elite level or in strongman or powerlifting the best package for you is going to be the full package this is because it's got the nutrition and the training program all in check for you and you can't out train

Bad nutrition if you've already got your training in check but you need to work on your nutrition have that accountability in place but also know what to do then I'll go for the nutrition only programming which is gonna get you the better results with this you get your nutrition plan your supplementation program and also your cardio and steps with the check-ins on my app so if you're looking to just have a

Plan of action with programming in the gym training programming only would be the one for you whether that's a competition prep and you've already got a nutritionist I'd personally choose this program for you you get your peak and program for competitions and you also get just a general program which is again tailored towards you and your goals if you're not doing a competition

No contracts — cancel any time. If your first month doesn’t move you forward, it’s free.

Decided? Here’s exactly what happens once you enquire.

03

What happens next

From the moment you hit send to your first week as a client — no surprises.

When you’ll hear from me

Every enquiry answered personally, before the end of the day.

Three steps: I read your answers, you book a time, we talk.

Read the transcript

So you're taking the next step now and probably wondering, what do you do next? Let me explain that to you. So first of all, I read through everything that you've sent over to me through the questionnaire and through the links that you've sent below.

So this will let me have an understanding of what you're doing, what your goals are, who you are and what you want to achieve. Then you'll have a booking link sent to you. That will allow us to hop on call and get the ball rolling with whatever you want to achieve.

So there's three steps. You book the call, I'll read through everything and in the meantime, if you need anything just drop us a DM you've already inquired check your messages I've probably got back to you already so you might be wondering what happens on a consultation call on a consultation call the slot that you've booked with me to speak I essentially run for everything on online coaching what package suits you best

And basically get an understanding of what you want to achieve but also where I can get you in this slot that is booked for you I then run through all your past experience what you've done previously or what your experience is in competitions from there at the end of the consultation I then see if this is the right fit for you I break down everything get you on a coaching app you

Fill out a Q&A and then from there we can get the ball rolling and get you your results this only works if we work together we're a team I will get you to your journey as long as we're communicating and making sure everything is perfect on your side book your call in the link below

What happens on the call

A conversation, not a pitch.

Your first days as a client

From sign-up to your first check-in, in days.

Read the transcript

So welcome to the team this is what your first days and weeks are going to look like for you. As soon as you've joined on I'm going to read out all of your Q&A make sure your plans are structured and tailored towards you and what you want to achieve.

Once I've made the plans they'll all be sent to you and then you'll be on board with me. Everything on a daily basis will be communicated through WhatsApp and making sure you're in the perfect check. From here if you've got any questions we therefore communicate through WhatsApp making sure that you are on the right journey.

On the app you then fill out your check-in on your check-in day that's specifically tailored towards you whatever day you've picked that will be when your check-in is that will then get a response either that day or the next day if you've submitted your check-in by 12 pm on that day you will get it done on the day so how do weekly check -ins work you fill out a form on my

App and that essentially allows me to break down how your week's been and then make the adjustments that are necessary for you this is also done through WhatsApp support and check-ins through a daily basis with me just making sure everything is going perfect.

Through the checking that is done on the app it then gets sent back to you on a Loom video explaining new adjustments everything that's changed in the app but also what is going well and what needs to be worked on. This allows you to have a clear understanding of things and allows you to then go away in the next week and do exactly as I've instructed.

From here once you've got the Loom video over I also send over a transcript of everything and detailed notes so you can go back on throughout the week and check what exactly you need to do. It is good to have you on the team.

Let's go and get your goals and get you to where you want to be.

Still got questions? I’ve answered the common ones below.

04

Your questions, answered

Everything clients ask me, answered. Open any one.

How do weekly check-ins work?

Once a week, on your set check-in day, you fill in your check-in through the app. It asks about your training, your nutrition, your weight, your steps, your sleep, your energy — and how the week actually felt. Alongside that, your progress photos and your numbers.

Then I sit down with all of it. I’m reading your week alongside your data: adherence, sticking points, energy, confidence. The numbers tell me one half of the story; your answers tell me the other.

You then get a personal video response from me. I’ll tell you what’s going well — because recognising progress matters — then give you clear direction on exactly what needs to happen next: what changes in the plan, what stays, and what to focus on this week. After the video, you get a written summary message, so the key actions are always there in black and white.

That’s the loop: you check in, I review, you get your video and your action points. Every single week, without fail. It’s the accountability that makes everything else work.

How do I use the coaching app?

Open the app and the first thing you’ll see is your short-term goal — the phase we’re currently working through and how long is left on it. You’ll always know exactly what we’re working towards right now, and how it fits into your bigger roadmap.

Your training plan is loaded in with your sets, reps and tempos. On each exercise you log the weight and reps you hit, so we can see your numbers climbing week on week — and I can see them too.

Your diet plan and supplement plan are in there as well, along with daily check-ins for the habits we’re tracking — things like steps, weight and cardio.

Your weekly check-in is submitted straight through the app on your check-in day, and my video responses land right back to you.

And if you’re ever stuck on anything — an exercise, a meal, the app itself — the resource library has FAQs and tutorials, and I’m a message away. It takes most clients two or three days to feel completely set. After that, it’s really simple.

How is my training plan built?

Your training plan isn’t pulled off a cookie-cutter template — it’s built for you, from scratch. Here’s how.

Everything starts with three things: your goal, your experience, and your life. How many days can you realistically train? What equipment have you got? Any injuries or limitations I need to work around? A perfect plan you can’t stick to is a useless plan — so we build around your reality.

From there, your training runs in structured blocks, each one with a clear objective — whether that’s building muscle, building strength, or both. Every session is laid out with your exercises, sets, reps and tempos, so you walk into the gym knowing exactly what you’re doing and why.

And it’s never static. Every week I’m watching your logged numbers and your check-ins, and the plan progresses with you — weights go up, exercises rotate, phases change as you move along your roadmap. If something isn’t working, it gets changed. That’s the difference between a programme and coaching.

You’ll also find form tutorials in the resource library for the key lifts, so you’re never guessing on technique. Train with structure, progress with purpose — that’s the system.

How does my diet plan work?

Let’s talk about the diet plan — because this is where most people lose progress with crash diets. That’s not what we do.

Your diet plan is built around you: your goal, your body, your schedule, and crucially, food you actually enjoy eating. It’s structured around your daily targets — your calories and your macros: protein, carbs and fats — broken down into meals that fit your day, whether you’re working shifts, chasing kids around, or eating on the go.

It’s always in the app, so you always know what your day looks like. And no, you won’t eat the same thing forever — foods can be swapped, and the plan flexes around real life.

Here’s the important part: the plan adjusts as you progress. Every week at check-in, I look at your weight trend, your energy and your adherence, and if your calories need to move — up or down — I move them. You’re never left grinding away on numbers that stopped working weeks ago.

No banned foods, no starvation, no guilt. Just a structured, flexible plan that gets results and fits your life. That’s how it should be.

What if I miss a workout or fall off track?

So what happens when you have a bad week?

First — it will happen. Work explodes, kids get ill, sleep goes sideways, motivation dips. Every single client I’ve ever coached has had off weeks, including the ones with incredible transformations. A bad week doesn’t break your progress. Disappearing does.

So here’s the rule: when things go wrong, you still check in. That’s it. You will never get a lecture from me. My job isn’t to make you feel guilty — it’s to solve the problem with you. Couldn’t get to the gym because life got in the way? Fine — maybe we slot in a home workout. Nutrition went off the rails at the weekend? We look at why, and we adjust the plan so it doesn’t keep happening.

One missed workout, honestly logged, tells me how to make your plan better. A perfect week that didn’t really happen tells me nothing.

Progress isn’t a straight line — it’s a trend. My job is to keep that trend moving in the right direction through the good weeks and the messy ones. So fall off track? We get back on. Together. That’s the whole point of having a coach.

How does 24/7 support actually work?

Every package comes with 24/7 support — so let me explain exactly what that means, because it’s one of the most valuable parts of the coaching.

It’s simple: you can message me anything, anytime. Stuck on an exercise? Message me. Staring at a menu on a night out wondering what to order? Message me. Weigh-in thrown you and your head’s gone? Message me. No question is too small, and nothing is a stupid question.

I will always get back to you before the end of the day. You will never be left on read for days.

The check-ins are our structured weekly review — but the support is what carries you between them. The answer you need on Tuesday shouldn’t have to wait until Sunday.

How do form reviews work?

Technique is everything — it keeps you safe, and it’s what makes an exercise actually work the muscle it’s meant to. So here’s how we make sure your form is right, even when I’m not stood next to you.

Step one: film your set. Prop your phone against a bottle or a bench, get your whole body in frame, and capture a working set — not your warm-up. Don’t worry about how it looks or who’s in the background; every serious lifter films their sets.

Step two: send it over with your check-in or drop it to me in a message.

Step three: I review it and come back to you with clear feedback — what’s good, what needs fixing, and the one or two cues to focus on next session. Not ten corrections at once; the couple that will make the biggest difference.

And before you’ve even filmed anything, the resource library has form tutorials for the key lifts, breaking down exactly how each movement should look and feel.

If you’re ever unsure on a lift — film it, send it. That’s what I’m here for. Never spend weeks practising a mistake.

How quickly will I see results?

Within the first couple of weeks, you’ll feel it: more energy, better sessions, structure replacing chaos, and that mental shift of finally knowing exactly what you’re doing every day.

Around weeks four to eight, it becomes visible: the scale trending the right way, clothes fitting differently, numbers in the gym climbing, progress photos starting to tell a story.

Beyond that — over months — is where transformations happen. The kind of change people notice.

This is exactly why your coaching runs on a roadmap. We set your long-term goal, then break it into focused short-term phases, each with its own milestone — you’re hitting checkpoints along the way, and every check-in shows you the evidence of your own progress.

What I won’t do is promise you a specific number by a specific date — anyone who does is guessing. What I can tell you is this: every week you follow the plan, you will be measurably closer than the week before. Consistency is key, and it’s my job to keep you consistent.

What about holidays, events and busy weeks?

“But what happens when I go on holiday?” — one of the most common questions I get, so let’s clear it up.

Life doesn’t stop for your goals, and your coaching doesn’t stop for your life. Holidays, weddings, work trips, mad weeks — they all get planned into your coaching, not worked around in a panic.

Got a holiday coming up? Tell me, and it goes into the app as an event. We plan for it properly: maybe we push hard beforehand, cruise sensibly while you’re away with some simple guidelines — walk lots, hit your protein, enjoy yourself without going mad — and then pick straight back up when you land. No guilt, no ‘ruined progress’, no starting from zero.

Big event you want to look your best for? Even better — we build a phase of your roadmap around it and use that date as fuel.

Busy week at work? Your plan flexes. We can shorten sessions, swap gym days, or set a minimum for the week — because a scaled-down week you complete beats a perfect week you abandon.

The plan serves your life, not the other way round. That’s exactly why this works long-term when everything else you’ve tried hasn’t.

Do I need supplements?

Supplements are the final five percent, not the foundation. Real food, hard training, sleep and consistency do the heavy lifting. No powder outworks a bad diet — anyone telling you otherwise is usually selling something.

That said, the right few supplements, used properly, absolutely have their place — which is why every package includes a tailored supplement plan. Built around your goal, your diet and your budget, it covers what’s actually worth taking — the proven basics, things like protein to help hit your targets and creatine for strength and performance — what timing matters, and just as importantly, what not to waste your money on.

And if the answer for you is ‘barely anything’, that’s exactly what your plan will say. I’m not here to sell you tubs — I’m here to get you results.

So no — you don’t need a cupboard full of supplements to succeed here. You need a good plan, followed consistently. The supplement plan just makes sure the extra few percent is working for you.

That’s everything. When you’re ready, the form’s below.
