Runners who lift

Marathons, ultras or your first half, without your strength sliding backwards every build.

About me

I'm Mikey. I do it all, so I coach it all.

I'm an online coach based in Edinburgh and an ATHX Games athlete. I started out training to get strong. Then I trained for aesthetics. But I wanted more than lifting heavy and looking the part.

That's what pulled me into hybrid. HYROX, ultras, endurance events. Now I train to be fast, strong and in shape all at once, and I know exactly what that takes because I'm doing it every week.

That's what I build for my clients. Smart programming, honest feedback and a plan that works with your life, not against it.

Still thinking about it?

The stuff you're probably telling yourself

"I just don't have the time."

Most of my clients work full time, some have kids, some travel every week. You don't need more hours, you need the hours you've got to actually count. I build your plan around your week, not the other way round.

"I'll start when things calm down."

They won't. There's always another busy month. Start now and you'll have a routine that holds up when life gets mad, instead of one that falls apart every time it does.

"I'm not fit enough yet."

That's what coaching is for. I've taken people from never running to HYROX and half marathons. You don't need to be ready, you just need to start.

"Will I lose my strength if I run more?"

Not if it's programmed properly. Getting faster and stronger at the same time is exactly what I do, for me and for every client. Lewis put 32.5kg on his bench. Dec took two minutes off his 5K and put 30kg on his deadlift.

"Is every session going to be brutal?"

No. Hard days are hard, easy days are easy, and that's why it works. Smashing yourself every session is how people get injured and burnt out.

"How will I know it's working?"

We set your numbers at the start, your runs, lifts and body comp, and retest them. You'll see it on paper, not just feel it.

"I only train in a commercial gym."

That's fine. Your programme is built around the kit you've actually got, whether that's a full HYROX box or a hotel gym.

How much is it?

Coaching starts from £99 a month. We'll go through the options on the call.
