After over twenty years working for ICI as a Research Scientist I’m now applying my scientific skills and knowledge as a Physical Specialist. I have been educated via the NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine) in Personal Training and Corrective Exercise which are considered to be the gold standard in the field, and I’m currently a REPS (Register of Exercise Professionals) Level 4 Advanced Instructor and Level 4 Sports Massage Therapist. Physical Specialists offer more detailed and prescriptive exercise coaching and are for those who are dedicated to achieving the very best results or those with injuries / special considerations. Using the most advanced postural and movement based screens and assessments, a Physical Specialist will identify their clients’ dysfunction or injury and will coach them through every step on the road to top-level performance or simply back to full fitness. I apply the NASM OPTâ„¢ model to exercise programming delivered in four weekly phases of systematic progressive training over twelve week time frames. The progressive, systematic approach ensures a safe journey for any client to their fitness goal encompassing flexibility, cardiorespiratory, core, balance, reactive, resistance, and speed agility and quickness training.
