Senior Consultant (Captain)

Operations Manager | Assistant S3

IT and Communication Lead | Platoon Leader

As a Former Army Captain I'm passionate about helping individuals and teams unlock their full potential. 

Having worked in the Military, Manufacturing, and Financial Services industries I have continued to search for what truly makes organizations successful. From my experience this goal is enabled by organized and useable data. 

Proper use of data assets does more that just allows you to present and inform at all levels of the organization. It allows you to:

- Tell a story
- Take strategic action
- Focus on wins while mitigating losses 

Most organizations face an enormous problem when it comes to organizing, structuring, and using their data in a meaningful way. 

Nexla is primed to solve this problem by streamlining data process to quickly transform raw data into actionable insights. We do this by automating data workflows to enhance responsiveness to business needs. 

This not only speeds up decision-making, but allows for more frequent iterations of data products. 

If you are finding yourself in situations where you have mass amounts of data, but cannot use it to its fullest potential it might be time to reach out for some help.

You can get in contact with us at nexla.com (link in my profile), or send me a message and I'll be in touch.

Lets find some time to talk today!

Let’s face it: sticking with a fitness plan is tough, especially when you’ve got a packed schedule. Whether it’s work, kids, or both, something always seems to get in the way of hitting those health goals.

You start off strong, pumped to get fit, but then life throws you a curveball—extra meetings, a sick kid, just the usual chaos. 
Suddenly, your new diet or workout routine takes a back seat, and it’s back to square one. 
Frustrating, right?

With 15 years under my belt as a fitness coach and a hefty side of nutrition and exercise knowledge, I get what works and what doesn’t. 
I’m all about crafting fitness plans that actually fit into your hectic life.

I’ve guided 400+ busy professionals and dads to achieve weight loss, higher energy, and greater confidence through my reliable systems and constant support.

I’m super excited!

Next week I’ll be in Dubai for the Dubai Active Industry!

For me, these events are about more than just conferences. 

They’re about learning what’s next in fitness and wellness, seeing how innovation is shaping the Middle East, and connecting with people who raise the bar for our industry.

I’ll be kicking things off on Friday at the CEO Forum, where global industry giants come together to shape the future of health, fitness, and wellbeing. 

Before that, I’ll join the ICREPS Global Standards Summit, a collaboration that sets the foundation for global consistency, recognition, and quality in fitness education.

And… after a long time, I’ll also be heading to HERC - Health, Exercise & Research Center (Zeljko Banicevic, really looking forward to that!)

If you’re there too, let’s meet up, would be great to connect face-to-face.

PS: Big thanks for the invitation, Gavin Baxter, MBA, CMgr FCMI 🙏

Stories from real people. Do you recognize yourself?

7 Takeaways from Dubai Active Industry

1) I absolutely love the health & fitness industry.
The people. The energy. But most importantly: the impact.
We work with the one thing people can’t live without — their health.
That shouldn’t be taken for granted.

2) Unfortunately, not all coaches are created equal.
After many discussions and talks, it’s clear:
Too many PTs give advice in areas they have no knowledge or training in.
Working with clients without proper experience or qualifications.
It leads to poor service, bad client experiences — and worst of all:
Loss of trust in the industry itself.

3) And we’re feeling that loss.
Panel discussions highlighted how few members actually use PTs —
Even though it's a win-win financially for operators and members.
PTs help with retention, experience, satisfaction…
But many operators don’t invest in onboarding, education, or people.
That’s a lot of money (and lives) left on the table.

4) But here’s the hope.
There are people working to change this.
Leaders who care about passion, knowledge, and real expertise.
They want higher standards, better systems —
And to make sure coaches are front-line workers of prevention.

5) Meeting these people is a gift.
It’s that moment where you go:
“Yes — I’m on the right path. Let’s keep going. Let’s build something together.”
Collaborations like this are what will take coaching to the next level.

6) One conversation can change your life.
That’s not a quote. That’s what happened to me.
I had talks in Dubai that truly shifted me —
And I’m grateful for the people behind those moments.

7) So I’ll keep showing up.
Next stop: FIBO Cologne.
And hopefully back to Dubai Active Industry next year.
(Also… I just love flying 😉)

Whether you're a coach, operator, or client — we’re in this together.
And if we raise the standards, everyone wins.

We’re losing members because our trainers aren’t connecting…”

That’s what an operator told me last week.
He’s not alone.

Most PTs don’t lack theoritical knowledge.
(they think clients need)

They lack connection.
(actually what clients want)
 
And no one is teaching them how to build it.

They’re not trained in soft skills.
They’ve never been onboarded properly.
They don’t ask deeper questions.
They don’t follow up.
They don’t know how to hold space for someone who just said “I hate my body.”
They just count reps and write programs.

But in a world where real connection is rare…
Connection IS the product.

People don’t quit gyms because of pricing.
They quit because no one noticed when they stopped showing up.
Because they never felt seen.

Never felt safe.
Never felt like someone actually gave a sh*t.

If you’re an operator:
You don’t need another challenge.
You need standards.
You need structure.
And you need to teach your coaches to care.

Because…
PT connection is the leverage point most gyms ignore
until it’s too late.

"What if my best PT quits tomorrow and I can’t replace them fast enough?"

That’s what an operator asked me the other day.

I paused and said:

“By you worrying, it sounds like you’ve left some options on the table. Did you actually give that coach what they needed to thrive?”

He said:
“No.”

So I said the only thing I could:
“I just hope you're not too late.”

Let’s be clear:
If your best PT walks out tomorrow, you don’t just lose a staff member.
You lose:
– Trust
– Relationships
– Revenue
– Reputation

And let’s be honest — yes, the fitness industry is saturated.

But it’s saturated with the wrong kind of coaches.
That’s a double-edged sword:
Fortunately — great coaches stand out faster
Unfortunately — bad ones damage your culture from the inside out

So if you’re an operator...
And you're lucky enough to have one of the good ones?
Don’t take them for granted.
Because hiring five average coaches to replace one great one
will cost you 10x more in:
– Time
– Headaches
– Lost clients
– And lost cash flow

Coach development isn't an expense.
It's the smartest investment you'll ever make.

Why your PTs can’t keep clients 

(and what to do about it)

Let’s be brutally honest.
Your personal trainers don’t struggle with client retention because of the market.

They struggle because…
They’re not good coaches.

Here’s what I mean:

Reason 1: They’re underqualified
They did a one-day or weekend course.
They now call themselves a “PT” or “nutritionist.”
They’ve only coached their friends for three weeks.
They’ve never coached a real human through real-life change.
They have no clue what they’re doing.

Reason 2: They’re not people-oriented
Let’s say — best-case scenario — they do know their theory.
They understand sets, reps, calories, macros.
Even then… they’re missing something big:
Human skills.
– They can’t build trust
– They don’t connect
– They don’t listen
– They don’t care
And clients feel that.

People don’t stay where they don’t feel seen or supported.
After 15 years in the industry, let me tell you what actually works:

You want retention? Combine two things:
Enough knowledge to genuinely help your clients
Enough care and connection to make them feel safe and supported
That’s it.

No fancy funnels.
No Instagram gimmicks.
Just real coaching.

If you’re an operator either hire a PT with both skills or teach your PTs in both skillsets.

Your business doesn’t grow from the number of sign-ups.

It grows from the number of people who stay.
