Here is the Olympic lift sessions I wrote for our regulars at the weightlifting club who have been missing our sessions and ordered barbells or borrowed them... You can do these movements with a dowel or pvc pipe. If you have no access to equipment, please get in touch and I will happily send through alternative training guidance that can be transferable to your lifting or sport.  If you don’t know how to do these, I would highly recommend waiting until lockdown is lifted and get a licensed coach from your national governing body for the sport. Here in England it is British Weightlifting and I am a fully qualified and licensed coach & technical official of the sport. I am also an educator for British Weightlifting who trains up other coaches. It’s an amazing sport and I love coaching and developing those in it.  If you are in the Blackpool or Preston area and would like to get involved in lifting, please get in touch. We currently don’t have our club sessions running, although are providing check ins and zoom technical sessions for those who would like it. 

So I’ve spent the past 12 years working all over the world, teaching fitness, yoga, dance, outdoor education and strength and conditioning. More recently I went back to studying a BSc (hons) in Strength and Conditioning followed by a MSc in Sport and Exercise Science. I am also have personal trainer, yoga teacher, pilates instructing, powerlifting coaching and olympic lifting coaching and many other sport/fitness related qualifications. 

I have applied for a job as an active ambassador for Neilson Active Holidays who I used to work for as part of their fitness team. I have got into the top 20 for this role and now need to get into the top 3 to get through to the next stage. This role would run alongside my current job roles and I’d be paid to encourage more people to get active, write about it and pass on what I have learnt from my studies and experience in the industry as I embark on my PhD in October in Sport and Exercise Science.
