FK.UK: SamD - Viewing Profile

I am a former World ranked sprint cyclist and represented the Great British Team on many occasions. I was Regional Champion, National Champion and achieved my highest ranking of 15th in the world. I currently train towards competing in Weightlifting and other Strength and Power Sports.

As a coach, I have 16 years of experience, working with Part time to Elite level athletes as Strength Coach. I am also an Advanced Personal Trainer and have been proving 1-2-1, group and bootcamp personal training services, to the members of the public for 16 years.

I founded KettlebellTrainer.co.uk in 2006, to introduce the benefits of functional training to the masses. I recognised the uniqueness and effectiveness of Kettlebells and how they could enable the general public to be introduced to weightlifting movements and gain the associated benefits.

Over the last 5 years, Kettlebells have become increasingly popular with fitness enthusiasts and athletes. I have trained many fitness enthusiasts and athletes over this time and achieved tremendous results.

As well as 1-2-1 services, I recognised there was a niche in the market for educational courses, aimed at personal trainers and sports coaches, focusing on developing their knowledge and skill set around functional training.

This led me to developing KBTEducation.co.uk, who provides educational courses to fitness professionals.
