Meet Nathan

Hi, I’m Nathan.

I’m a fitness coach based in Aberdeen. I work with people who want to become stronger, improve how they look and feel, build confidence in the gym and develop a better understanding of their own training and nutrition.

My approach to coaching is straightforward: I want you to understand what we’re doing, why we’re doing it and how it fits into your life. A good programme matters, but so does developing the knowledge and confidence to understand it and make informed decisions about your own training.

My background

While studying fitness and health, I also worked as a chef and baker. That experience still influences how I approach nutrition today. Food shouldn't become something you dread because you have a fitness goal. I want clients to understand how their diet supports their goals while still being able to make it enjoyable, practical and sustainable.

Since beginning my coaching career, I’ve worked with people with very different levels of experience, abilities and goals, from those stepping into unfamiliar gym environments to experienced gym users and people training to support sports and active lifestyles.

Working with such a wide range of people has taught me that coaching should adapt to the individual, rather than expecting every person to fit the same approach.

How I coach

  1. 01

    Learn

    Understand your training, nutrition and the factors influencing your progress.

  2. 02

    Apply

    Turn that knowledge into practical decisions and a plan that works around your goals and life.

  3. 03

    Sustain

    Build the confidence, habits and understanding to continue progressing over time.

My goal isn't to make you dependent on coaching. It's to provide the structure and support you need while helping you become more confident in making your own training and health decisions.
