S&C for Sports Performance

I have worked with Chris since 2015 for my strength and conditioning as a triathlete. In that time he has been able to improve key areas of strength that are required both across the triathlon disciplines and by myself as an amputee athlete. We have worked around a multitude of obstacles that have affected consistency, including time away from sport, overseas travel, and triathlon season's that require multiple tapers. He is very patient and through good communication we have managed to create a program that has enabled me to develop as an athlete, and win both a Work and European Championships as we work towards Tokyo 2020.

I'm really fussy when it comes to my coaches, and he is awesome.

Over the last 5 months at SC Vital Fitness, Chris has helped me personally, identifying weaknesses and strengths and working to make me a more rounded athlete in preparation to row the Atlantic in the 2020 Tallisker Whiskey Challenge. As a result, my fitness and strength have increased, my back pain decreased substantially, and I'm loving the fitness journey I am on. The sessions with Chris are never boring, fast-paced, well constructed, supported with science and reasoning. He pushes me hard and is always looking for new ways to help me on my 3000 journey. I'm so impressed, I've recommended SC Vital Fitness and Chris to friends and family.

It was great having Chris at Team CC gym delivering his sleep workshop to our member base. From having met Chris a few time previously I already knew he was a great professional and excellent person, but even knowing this seminar still over-delivered on expectations. The content was spot on and he put lots of time and effort into making sure everyone's questions were answered. He was extremely knowledgable, passionate, highly engaging and very funny, and we received nothing but great feedback from our members. I would highly recommend Chris's workshop to any gym owner who is looking to add real value to all of their members.

For the past 2 and half years, I have had the pleasure of being coached by Chris. In that time he has helped in my preparation for competition, training programmes outside of competition and also helped me understand other areas like recovery and sleep! Chris has not only helped me to improve my strength, fitness and technique in the gym but his attitude and motivation have encouraged me to be a better coach outside of it too!

Chris has provided a crucial element to my triathlon training programme over the past year. His knowledge and passion have enabled me to remain strong and injury free during my gruelling 20-hour weekly training schedule, leading up to the World Championships in Australia where I finished 7th. Not only did Chris consistently demonstrate outstanding knowledge and professionalism but all of his sessions were also enjoyable and varied. This was vital for me in order to maintain my motivation, as Chris is very aware that no triathletes enjoy strength training.
