Meet David
I am a coach and educator bringing training, nutrition and recovery together in a practical system for real life.
Fitness and general nutrition coaching within my qualifications and competence—not medical care.
Real experiences. Practical coaching.
Published feedback from people who have trained with me. Individual experiences vary, and no particular result is guaranteed.
★★★★★“I would recommend David as he has really helped me with balancing my diet and exercise. He is not just generic, he has put together a specific programme that suits my needs. For someone who hasn't exercised in a long while, I'm now converted and enjoying his sessions.”
Julie M.Verified Setmore review

Sean W.Verified Setmore review
★★★★★“From the beginning, David has tailored my programme to suit where I’m at, regularly adjusting it based on how I’m progressing both in and outside of sessions. I genuinely enjoy the sessions and feel stronger and more confident as a result.”
Michelle O.Verified Setmore review
★★★★★“I cannot recommend Dave enough. If you want an empowering coach definitely give him a try. Training is very difficult and it can be intimidating. Dave is the lad for you!”
