New year, new start for your health in 2011?

New year, new start? Looking to fulfil your fitness potential? Whether you exercise already or need a kick start, I can help you! Whatever your discipline, I can help. Take a FREE fitness MOT consultation with no strings attached. If you subsequently book four sessions for January or February, I’ll give you a 25% discount on my usual rates. Whether you're a runner, a swimmer, cyclist, play team sports, hate or love the gym, or are just considering getting going, then I can assist!

Contact me on stuartholliday at gmail.com. I am insured and your contact with me is confidential as per the British Psychological Society guidelines to which I adhere.

How so?

If the prospect of reaching your ideal fitness or conditioning feels like a burden let me help you take the strain! I'm a trainee sport psychologist and coach who has worked with beginners through to elite level athletes and my support can help you achieve your goals, instead of giving up at the first hurdle.

Together we can plan out your first month of fitness for 2011, for you to build on - with or without me.

As well as physical training, I can also help with motivation, confidence, mental toughness, help you to acquire and refine skills, deal with anxiety, recovery from injury, set year goals or improve your adherence to schedules in any discipline.

I can help you improve your fitness routine, coach any track or field sport and advise on all the physical exercise that you are undertaking, along with nutritional, kit and lifestyle advice.

Why you Stu?

I can fit around your schedule. We can meet before or after work – I've even coached people on their lunch breaks! I'm not judgmental and think it healthy to lead a balanced lifestyle

• I won't try and sell you a 12 month membership
• I won’t tie you into activities you don't want to do or that will break your spirit
• For training, I prefer to work with you once a week for 4 weeks to get you started (and/or improve your existing fitness), but would be happy just helping you get started after your ‘MOT’.

Previously I have helped:

• Beginners in a running club – going from standing start to running their first mile & then 10k
• Re-worked & improved the training schedule of someone who ran, swam and cycled every week
• Coached tri-athletes, sprint and marathon runners to get faster and improve core fitness
• Improved confidence in exercisers to achieve their fitness goals
• Cyclists and runners overcome anxiety about sporting competition
• Improved team cohesion and individual confidence of members of a rowing team
