No — in most cases you do not need to stop training. My approach to rehabilitation is based on the principle that rehab is modified training. Instead of complete rest, we usually adjust the type of exercises, training load, and overall volume so you can keep moving while symptoms settle.

During the initial consultation we will discuss your injury, your current training, and your goals. From there we define clear priorities and structure a rehabilitation plan that fits those goals — often balancing capacity-building work with the training you want to continue.

In some situations, particularly with acute injuries or very high training loads, it may be sensible to temporarily reduce intensity or shift focus toward rebuilding capacity before returning fully to your sport. These decisions are always made collaboratively, weighing your goals, the demands of your sport, and the current state of the injury.

Yes, ideally. This is a gym-based rehabilitation service, because strength training is one of the most effective ways to rebuild tissue capacity, tolerance, and long-term resilience. Regardless of your sport or activity outside the gym, the rehabilitation work we do is designed to improve the physical qualities that support it — rather than simply repeating the same demands of your sport. In most cases, access to a gym at least two times per week is strongly recommended so we can progress your rehabilitation properly.

This depends on your symptoms, recovery, time availability, and goals. Two sessions per week is usually enough to begin building momentum. Three to four sessions may be appropriate for others depending on capacity. The priority is finding a level you can recover from and sustain consistently.

Your rehabilitation plan is built and delivered in a private Google Sheet that is shared directly with me. I can see your exercises, loads, symptoms, and notes week after week, which allows me to track trends, adjust volume or intensity, and spot issues early. Progressions, regressions, and load-management decisions are discussed and applied either during Hotseats or through 1-to-1 coaching calls, depending on your tier.

A weekly live group coaching call where members submit questions or videos in advance. The session is structured so that every member who submits receives time and feedback, either live or via replay. I review technique, modify exercises when needed, and guide rehabilitation decisions in real time — with recordings available afterward. Because your programme is shared with me in Drive, I can see your progress, symptoms, loads, and notes in real time, allowing feedback to be specific, contextual, and clinically relevant.

No, you do not need to count calories. That said, your general calorie intake, recovery needs, and nutrition habits will still be considered as part of the process — especially if you are managing pain while continuing to train at a relatively high intensity.

Recovery is a key part of rehabilitation, and adequate nutrition plays an important role in supporting it. Where relevant, I may guide you around calories, protein, and overall food intake to make sure your body has enough support to recover, adapt, and tolerate training well.

Rehabilitation is more effective when you understand the principles behind it. The Education Vault is an evolving library of PowerPoints and curated videos that complements 1-to-1 coaching calls. We use call time for your specific needs, and the Vault for deeper theory — such as pain, load management, exercise progression, and programming principles — at your own pace.

Yes — that is exactly what this service is for. My philosophy is “Rehab is modified training”, which means the goal is not to stop completely, but to adapt training appropriately around pain, reduce aggravation, and gradually rebuild capacity over time.

Apps are restrictive. I use a professional workspace for full individualisation. Your Rehabilitation Plan lives in Google Sheets, and your Support Hub (videos, resources, form checks) lives in Drive. This allows real-time changes, transparency, and flexibility that apps can’t provide.

You upload key lifts or rehabilitation exercises to your private Drive folder. I review your movement and leave specific feedback directly in your training sheet. This helps us refine exercise selection, improve execution, and keep progression appropriate.

The more independent tier suits people who want a clear rehabilitation plan and are comfortable applying guidance between check-ins. The higher-support tiers are ideal if your case is more complex, symptoms are changing quickly, or you want closer feedback, accountability, and more regular programme adjustments.
