Hi I'm Ian.
Like many people I struggled to get in shape. Being a personal trainer I used the old adage 'eat less, exercise more' for years.
In fact, I tried multiple diets, keto, paleo, vegetarianism (I couldn't face vegan)...with little success.
Exercise-wise I was no slacker.
I had many high level weight lifting and exercises class qualifications to my name, as well as playing competitive sport, I was exercising in excess of 10hrs a week.
Yet I was struggling...
Like most people I'd lose weight, sometimes a lot, but it came back, with interest and it was all the harder to lose it the next time around.
------
Then I was introduced to a man called Charles Poliquin. Charles was a world class strength coach with multiple medalled Olympic and World champion athletes to his name.
He had created a way to understand how fat loss and muscle gain was linked to hormonal balance.
I was like, WHAT!!!!
In my entire career, nobody had mentioned hormonal balance being connected to fat loss and results in the gym.
It was my holy s%#t! moment.
A massive piece of the puzzle was missing!
I had finally found something that could identify why I was holding onto fat and what specific (to me) diet, exercise, lifestyle and supplement changes I needed to make to get myself looking and feeling my best.
Since then I have been able to maintain good health and with relative ease a body that I'm proud of.
------
Unfortunately, (15 years later) this information is still not well known.
The old ways refuse to die and the majority of the population remain confused, frustrated, sad, sick and nowhere near their ideal body.
This is why I want you to know my story and 100s of others that have benefited from understanding their own unique metabolic fitness profile.
By resetting your metabolism you can lose fat with ease, gain muscle, improve energy, fix supposedly unfixable health conditions and avoid years of pain and frustration.
------
Fast forward - It's taken years of trial and error to bring together a single test that can make a real difference.
So if you're someone who is fed up with the garbage advice and just wants answers that will truly improve your body and health without spending years experimenting, then this approach is for you.
Our Metabolic Fitness profile tests Hormones, Organ health and Nutrient levels and many others that can shed light on why you are finding it so hard and to get in shape and feel better.
So if you have struggled and are looking for a way to to right yourself, then feel free to get in touch for a chat, to see if I can help.
To your Success.
Ian
Rarely do we see coaches, trainers or experts walking the walk and talking the talk.
The Mind Body Metabolism approach was created in response to a fitness industry full of confusion & egos, a health industry in which the only answers are detoxes, green shakes & yoga, and doctors offering fruitless appointments and drugs, ignoring simple, natural treatments.
Our Approach?
To start with you.
Too many programs out there are written before you've even walked in the door.
By understanding your health from the inside out, you can be sure of a plan that is well thought out and has you, your goals, your health, your ability level, your lifestyle at it's core, so it WORKS!
Our flagship testing is a way through all the noise, to make sense of the nonsense, and find a way that truly delivers a result, but with (something that is rarely seen) your health and wellbeing remaining intact.
The majority of my clients are 40+.
Men and women that have hit that time in their lives where health and fitness is suddenly more complex.
The traditional methods are no longer working and their bodies are changing at pace, for no obvious rhyme or reason.
Their goals range from dealing with stubborn body fat to meeting a more serious health challenge.
The MBM approach has been the solution they have been searching for (in some cases for decades).
By using our Metabolic Fitness Profile, complemented by friendly personal support, they get to truly understand their health in a practical way that puts them back in control.
They are then free to pursue their goals, feeling reenergised, renewed and confident in their new resilient healthy bodies.

If we are a good fit then the next step is a health assessment.
Here we will understand your current lifestyle and highlight any areas that need to be addressed. This can include physical, mental, emotional and biological health barriers.
This can be THE missing link when it comes to real results. Misunderstanding what condition our internal environment is in can be a huge hole in the health puzzle.
Our approach, working from the inside out, focuses on identifying the root cause of health issues and treating them with personalised interventions.
You test will highlight any core principles that our out of balance. These foundations of health kept our ancestors healthy and gave them the ability to not just survive, but thrive in far harsher environments than we find ourselves today.
This powerful component lays the groundwork for sustainable rewarding progress and exceptional results.
Diets have long been one of the most confusing areas of health...not any more.
We can define your personal metabolic type and teach you the fundamentals of nutrition, giving you an individualised understanding that leaves the deprivation and common 'one size fits all' diets, in the bin where they belong.
My approach is not the classic route, which rushes you through an unsustainable program in 14-30 days. This only leaves you exhausted and feeling like you aren't strong enough to deserve success.
Personal coaching goes at your pace. We are able to give you space to slip up, have a week away, or enjoy a meal out with your friends and family guilt free.
This refreshing approach is realistic and helps build strong habits that will serve you for a lifetime.
Our flagship health test shines a light on an area of health that is so powerful but seldom understood.
