Patient Reviews

“Saw Ben in running clinic. The gait analysis was interesting and a useful tool to identify a couple of weaknesses within my own running. Ben’s advice on strength and conditioning in terms of weekly structure and specific exercises was excellent.”

“Went in for a half day fast track run coaching session with Ben and it was absolutely brilliant.
I have been running for 1-2 years and am getting more serious with longer endurance events and wanted a bit of an MOT and review of my form / areas to improve on. Ben went through a whole variety of different tests to find the answers as well as spending some time coaching me on the treadmill with some new techniques. Being able to watch these back and compare to beforehand was really useful and I found it fascinating too.
I left with a host of exercises to do / strength and conditioning as well as a 6 session programme to implement my new run form techniques to make it a more natural adjustment to my current form.
I will certainly be booking back in a couple of months for a checkup and review of progress.
Ben was very knowledgeable, professional and personable. He is obviously someone who really likes his job and enjoys getting the best from you, and I felt very welcomed and engaged throughout.
For anyone who is thinking of getting more serious about running/multi-sport, I would definitely recommend this session – as well as giving you a comprehensive review, you are also investing in trying to remain injury free through better technique! Worth every penny.
Thanks very much Ben and see you soon!”

“After several recurring running injuries, I’ve been attending sessions with Ben over the past few months which has transformed my training. Took me back to basics required to sort out the root causes. My running is progressing in leaps and bounds and the trajectory is now that I should surpass the goals I had set (which to be honest were ambitious already).”
