MG-Coaching, Chorley (2026)

11/09/2026

As the competitive season has progressed, I’ve had more and more enquiries about my online coaching.

And the question I get asked most?

“How much?”

So here it is:

£249 for a 16-week block.

Am I the best online coach you can get?

No.

There are some exceptional coaches out there who absolutely deserve the premium fees they charge.

But am I one of the best coaches you’re likely to find at £249 for 16 weeks?

I’d probably say yes.

I’ve spent 30 years in the gym and 20 years as a competitive natural bodybuilder, including competing at the highest levels and earning three World Titles.

More importantly, I’ve spent those years learning, applying, adapting and helping countless people work towards their own goals.

So why do I charge so little?

Because I’m not trying to build a huge online coaching business.

I don’t spend thousands on marketing.
I don’t have a massive social media following.
And I probably don’t put anywhere near enough effort into promoting myself online.

My price basically covers my time and expenses while allowing me to do something I genuinely enjoy.

There are some brilliant coaches charging considerably more — and rightly so.

But price doesn’t automatically equal quality, and a big social media following doesn’t automatically equal experience.

I’m just not that guy.

No gimmicks.
No inflated price because I have a big following.

Just experience, knowledge, accountability and proper coaching.

£249. 16 weeks.

A QUICK BUT IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO ALL PASQUILL’S MEMBERS.

Pasquill’s Gym is a family-run independent gym. It isn’t a large chain with hundreds of members and corporate backing.

Every membership and every session payment matters.

Recently, we’ve noticed that some members — including regulars — are training whilst behind on their payments.

We appreciate that mistakes happen. We also appreciate that sometimes genuine financial difficulties arise.

But simply not paying and continuing to train isn’t acceptable.

Our prices are deliberately kept low:

💷 £4 a session
💷 £7.50 a week
💷 £20 a month

If you are genuinely struggling to pay, speak to Gordon. He will always try to help where he can.

What isn’t helpful is ignoring payments, continuing to use the gym and hoping nobody notices.

We’ve also noticed that some people who are behind on payments are refusing to sign in.

Please don’t be offended if you are asked to sign in, or if we ask when your membership is due. We have a responsibility to make sure everyone using the gym is paying appropriately.

This isn’t about picking on individuals. It’s about fairness.

The money coming into Pasquill’s pays for the equipment, electricity, maintenance, improvements and everything else required to keep the doors open.

When people use the gym without paying, it directly affects the business and ultimately everyone who does pay.

We’ve worked hard to keep Pasquill’s affordable. Please don’t take that for granted.

If your payment is overdue, please sort it.
If you’re unsure when it’s due, ask.
If you’re struggling, speak to Gordon.

We’re proud of the community we’ve built here.

Let’s all do our bit to keep it going.

Respect the gym. Respect the rules. Respect the family. ❤️

A massive thank you to my gym family ❤️

One of the things I’ve appreciated most throughout this prep has been the support from everyone at the gym.

A special thank you to Tracey & Gordon for their continued support, encouragement and belief in me over all these years. Having people who have backed me through different stages of my bodybuilding journey means a huge amount.

Thank you as well for the brilliant gift bag for the family, complete with w**e and treats. 🥂🍫 Very much appreciated — although it’s being saved until after my first British Final in less than two weeks! 😂

And then there’s the early morning crew…

Thank you for putting up with my prep face, the 5am grumpiness and the daily sight of me in just my shorts doing physique checks and posing. 🤣

To everyone else at the gym, thank you for the encouragement, conversations, questions and support throughout the prep.

As a coach, I’m always talking to clients about the importance of having the right environment around you. This prep has been another reminder of just how valuable that is.

The gym isn’t just somewhere you train. The people around you can become a huge part of your journey.

I’m very grateful to have had such a supportive bunch around me.

One British Final secured. One more to go.

BNBF Northern Qualifier — 2nd Place Masters Bodybuilding Over 40s.

Saturday 29th August marked another important step in this competition journey.

17 years after first competing at the BNBF Northern show in 2009, I was back — this time as a Masters athlete, and with the goal of earning my invitation to the British Finals.

After a tough battle in a class of four, I secured 2nd place and the British invite.

Tony Barnes took the win and was a worthy champion. On the day, he was the better bodybuilder. That's exactly what competition should be about — getting onstage, being judged against someone else's physique and presentation, learning from it and then seeing what you can improve.

Four years after competing at the DFAC Worlds with the BNBF team, I'm now heading back to the BNBF British Finals.

The next six weeks are about making the most of the opportunity.

From a coaching perspective, this prep has also been another reminder that getting into shape isn't about one magic trick, one final-week protocol or one perfect day.

It's the accumulation of months of training, nutrition, recovery, consistency and making the right adjustments when things don't go exactly to plan.

Peak Week is simply where you reveal the work you've already done.

Now we have another six weeks to improve what's possible.

BNBF British Finals
Saturday 10th October
Leatherhead Theatre

See you there. 👊

UKDFBA Northern Championships — Saturday 22nd August.

Four years after my last competition, I finally stepped back onstage.

13 weeks of prep.
38lb / 17kg lost.
Completely self-coached.

The goal was straightforward:
Qualify for the UKDFBA British Finals.

Thankfully, I managed to do exactly that.

🥇 Masters Bodybuilding Over 40 — 1st Place
🏆 British Finals invite secured.

Winning the class also gave me the opportunity to compete in the Overall, where I got to stand toe to toe with every class winner from the day.

For me, that's another valuable part of competing — being able to see how your physique compares against the best of the other classes, and learning from the experience.

Beyond the results, I genuinely loved being back in the bodybuilding environment.

Seeing old friends, meeting new people and being part of a community where everyone understands the work, sacrifice and obsession that goes into this sport is something I’ve missed.

A particularly special moment was my posing routine.

I performed it to the song Lauren and I had for our First Dance, which I’d kept completely secret from her. Her reaction made all the prep worthwhile.

And having Athena onstage with me for the first time was something I’ll treasure forever.

Thank you to the UKDFBA for a fantastic day, James for encouraging me to compete with the federation, A1 comp tanning for the glazing help, Pasquill's Gym for their support, and Lauren for being the person behind the scenes who makes all of this possible.

Now the next target:
UKDFBA British Finals — 12th September, The Edge, Wigan

Less than two weeks to make improvements and see how far I can push this physique.

30/08/2026

What a mad 8 days.

After 4 years away from the stage, I kept this prep quiet and simply wanted to show up, do the work, and let the physique do the talking.

30 years training.
20 years competing and self-coaching.

This was my first time competing in back-to-back shows, with one simple goal: qualify for both British Finals.

UKDFBA Northern —
Masters Over 40: 🥇 1st place
BNBF Northern —
Masters Over 40: 🥈 2nd place
Goal achieved.

But this weekend was about more than placings.

10 years ago, I competed with my then one-year-old son, Noah, there with me.

10 years later, I’ve competed again with my one-year-old daughter, Athena — and having both of my children there across the shows was something I’ll never forget.

Now the work continues.

The goal is to take what I’ve built, identify where I can improve, and chase those podium spots at both British Finals.

And a huge thank you to my wife, Lauren ❤️.

Without her support, none of this would be possible.

30 years training. Still learning. Still improving. Still pushing.
