🏃‍♂️ SPRINTING VS LONG DISTANCE RUNNING 🏃‍♀️

Today’s video looks at the benefits of both sprinting and long distance running, as well as some risk factors to consider.

⚡️ Sprinting

The benefits:

💪 Can help develop lower-body strength and power by recruiting fast-twitch muscle fibres.

🔥 Improves your ability to produce and sustain high-intensity efforts, making it useful for sports and other explosive activities.

⏱️ It’s extremely time efficient, allowing you to work at a very high intensity in a short period of time.

Things to consider:

⚠️ Sprinting places a high level of force through the muscles, tendons and joints, which can increase risk of injury.

😴 It requires adequate recovery due to the high physical demands placed on the body.

🏃‍♂️ While sprinting can improve high-intensity fitness, it isn’t the most effective method for developing your aerobic endurance.

🏃🏽 Long distance running

The benefits:

🫀 Improves cardiovascular fitness by helping the heart and circulatory system become more efficient at delivering oxygen around the body.

🔥 Can burn a significant number of calories, making it useful for those looking to manage their body weight.

🏃‍♂️ Improves aerobic endurance and your ability to sustain exercise for longer periods.

🧠 Can also help develop mental resilience and the ability to maintain effort when fatigue sets in.

Things to consider:

⏰ Long-distance running can be time consuming, so plan your runs in advance.

💪 Excessive running combined with insufficient calories, protein and resistance training can contribute to muscle loss, so your overall training and nutrition need to be balanced.

⚠️ The repetitive loading involved in running can contribute to overuse injuries.

So which is best?

There isn’t one right answer.

It depends on your goals.

If you’re wanting to develop speed, power and high intensity fitness, then sprinting is the one for you 💥

Or if you want to improve your aerobic fitness and endurance, then long distance running is for you 👌

Or better still, why not incorporate both 🤷‍♂️

Drop me a message if you’re wanting to improve on your power, speed or endurance 👊

12 WEEKS. 3 PHOTOS. MASSIVE CHANGE. 🔥💪

Left pic: 12 weeks ago.

Middle & right pics: current physique

And this is exactly why I bang on about consistency and trusting the process.
In just 12 weeks, Joel has completely transformed his physique — dropping body fat, building muscle and creating a much leaner, stronger look. 💪

But the biggest changes don’t happen overnight.
They come from:
✅ Turning up consistently
✅ Training hard
✅ Following the plan
✅ Making better choices with nutrition
✅ Staying disciplined when motivation isn’t there
✅ Trusting the process

The photos speak for themselves.

12 weeks of hard work, commitment and consistency.
Massive credit mate. Amazing progress 👏

Who’s ready to start their own transformation?

DM me “COACHING” and let’s get started. 🚀

10 weeks. One client. A whole lot of progress. 💪🔥

Not every transformation is about a dramatic before & after photo.

Over the last 10 weeks, Joanne has:

📉 Reduced her body weight and body fat
💪 Increased her strength
🏃 Improved her fitness
🧠 Improved her mindset and mental wellbeing
🔥 Built better habits and consistency

And whilst the physical changes might not look dramatic in these photos, the progress she’s made goes far beyond what you can see in a picture.

That’s what I love about coaching.

The goal isn’t simply to look different in a photo — it’s to feel stronger, fitter, healthier and more confident in yourself.

Massive well done Joanne for putting the work in over the last 10 weeks. 👏

The photos are only one small part of the transformation.
The numbers, the strength, the fitness and most importantly how she feels are what really matter 🎯

On to the next chapter! 🚀

🎉 10 YEARS AT POULTON GYM ETC 🎉

What started as a job has become a huge part of my life, my career and something I’m incredibly proud of.

Over the last 10 years I’ve had the privilege of helping hundreds of clients improve their fitness, lose weight, build strength, gain confidence and achieve goals they once thought were out of reach 💪

I’ve seen people completely transform their lifestyles, watched clients achieve things they never thought possible and, most importantly, met some amazing people along the way 💙

And the journey hasn’t stopped there...

🎓 Level 4 Strength & Conditioning qualified
💪 1-1 & Group Personal Training
🏀⚽️ Sport Specific Training
🔥 Bootcamp classes
🏃 HYROX classes
💻 Online coaching
📚 Constantly learning and developing

I’ve gone from being a PT with a passion for fitness to building a coaching business that I’m genuinely proud of.

10 years of early mornings, late nights, sweaty sessions, sore muscles, laughs, challenges, PBs, setbacks and plenty of memories.

And I wouldn’t change it.

A massive thank you to every single client who has trusted me over the years, supported my business, recommended me to friends and family or simply turned up and put the work in.

You are the reason I get to do what I love for a living 👊

Here’s to the next chapter 📖

10 years down.

Let’s see what the next 10 brings 💥

Delighted to have officially completed my Level 4 Certificate in Strength & Conditioning 🙌

This has been a long journey, starting back in March 2025, and alongside running my business full-time it involved coursework, practical workshops, assignments, a case study and a presentation.

It wasn’t always easy fitting everything around work and family life, but I’m incredibly proud to have seen it through.

I’m a big believer that if I’m asking my clients to invest in themselves, I should be doing exactly the same.

This qualification allows me to continue providing the highest standard of coaching to everyone I work with, whether your goal is fat loss, building muscle, improving athletic performance or simply becoming stronger and healthier.

Learning never stops, and neither do I.

Thanks to everyone who has supported me throughout the journey. Here’s to the next challenge 💪

Absolute pleasure helping Poulton FC with their pre season fitness last night 🏃‍♂️

Unbelievable effort from the lads especially in that heat 🥵

Well done fellas, looked very sharp 💪

Strength & Conditioning isn’t just lifting weights in the gym. It also includes sport specific exercise and improving your cardiovascular endurance, speed and agility. The lads covered it all last night, getting themselves ready for the 2026/2027 season 🔥

Online Coaching Q&A

How the Online Coaching process? - this is when a client signs up to a tailored exercise plan to follow with continued specialist guidance from myself.

How do we track progress? - Body measurements and progress pictures are taken at the beginning and end of program. If client isn’t local then they provide the measurements to me.

How often are check ins? - 1-2 times a week either over message or video call.

How do you tailor my plan? - the plan is tailored based on the information you provide on the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire and in the free consultation.

Day 1 of signing up to your online coaching, what can I expect? - free consultation to discuss your plan and build a rapport, then a free personal training session to go through the plan in full detail and I’ll also email a welcome pack and an informed consent form.

Are the workouts just gym based? - plans are tailored to your lifestyle and fitness level, whether that’s either in the gym or limited to home workouts.

What happens at the end of my plan? - clients have the option to renew and progress even further. Or if they’re happy with their results then there’s no pressure from me to sign up again.

Now’s the time to either start your fitness journey or take your training to the next level 📈
