Meet Your Coach

I’m David, head coach and founder of The Functional Fitness Coaches.

My journey into coaching was not straightforward…

After leaving a role as Assistant Commissioning Editor with one of the most prestigious academic publishing companies in the UK, I retrained and jumped headfirst into the fitness industry.

Starting with zero clients, a commercial gym floor, and a mortgage to pay at the end of the month was challenging, but it finally felt aligned and I was determined.

Over time I built a thriving business through 1-2-1 coaching, bootcamps, and Boxercise classes.

During lockdown, I adapted by moving my 1-2-1 coaching outdoors and exploring online coaching for the first time.

Post-lockdown, I transitioned to a private gym where I’ve been coaching from ever since. This journey led me to co-found The Functional Fitness Coaches in January 2023, and by August, I took over the business as the sole owner.

Through years of working with hundreds of clients from fitness newbies to seasoned competitors, I bring a deep understanding of strength, conditioning, bodybuilding and functional fitness to my coaching.

I want you to know that wherever you are in your journey, I’ve been there too. 

I’ve faced the challenges, made the pivots, and come out stronger on the other side.

I’m here to help you do the same.

My coaching ethos is anchored in shifting your focus from aesthetics to performance, building a tailored plan around YOU as an individual and ensuring you’re not just fit—but ready to conquer any challenge that comes your way!

At FFC we make big promises, but with big promises come big responsibility, and we wouldn’t be able to promise any of this if what we do didn’t work.

Don’t just take my word for it though, scroll to the bottom to check out what our amazing athletes have to say!

THE 3 MOST COMMON STRUGGLES PEOPLE FACE WHEN TRYING TO HIT A HYROX PB OR SUCCESSFULLY STEP UP TO PRO LEVEL ARE:
