Role
I’ve been working in the fitness world for over 20 years and my role at Train Heald Green is to ensure the coaches are delivering an excellent training programme, ensure the gym is in tip top condition and help members achieve their fitness goals while having a great time. I also help organise our in-house competitions and take the CrossFit Kids classes.
Why I love CrossFit?
I love it for the ‘leveller’ that it is. Mature athletes doing more pull-ups and running faster than twenty year olds. Girls lifting more than men, and the men being nothing other than inspired and supportive to it. 6 foot + guys moving gracefully doing gymnastics.
The list goes on and on.
Favourite Workout/ Movement
It has to be Helen or Cindy. Helen because it was the first workout I ever did and that I wasn’t completely afraid of and it kept me a little in my comfort zone. Cindy probably because you always forget and underestimate how tough the basics are.
And….rope climbs are always fun.
What are the best things about the TRAIN community?
Along with everything a CrossFit community delivers, my absolute love for TRAIN is the banter and the no frills, fuss or fanfare attitude. Everyone comes to train, have fun, gently roast each other and go home after each workout knowing we have the support of our community. Then do it all again the next day.

Hello I’m Tom,
I have been a coach and personal trainer for 7 years now. I come from a strength and conditioning background, I competed in powerlifting for 5 years before switching over to functional fitness
Since swapping over to functional fitness I’ve never enjoyed training as much as I do now. I love the variety it brings, being able to get stronger, fitter and faster
I’m currently training for Hyrox, which is the bulk of my training. Other than that I’m training for my first ultra marathon, which is a backyard ultra in July
Interesting facts about me are I’m irrationally scared of sharks and I have four lovely bunnies called Tom, Bernard, Mew and Nigel
What I enjoy most about coaching is watching the members come in the gym and just get after it day in day out, whether it’s after a long day at work or early morning. I think the shared environment of everyone just coming in and training hard is infectious and I love the atmosphere this brings
If you have any questions about strength training, conditioning, Hyrox or running feel free to ask when you see me in the gym

I am a Crossfit Level 1 trainer, Masters “athlete” as well as holding my British Weightlifting Level 1. I found Crossfit in 2016 and started coaching to improve my own technical ability as well as to help others improve and develop. My aim for every class is to make it a fun and positive experience and to support and encourage everyone taking part to improve their fitness for the long haul.
