Personalised training plan
Written for your goal, experience, schedule and the equipment you actually have: commercial gym, home set-up or hotel gym.

Northampton · Northamptonshire
If you live in Northampton, you can work 1-to-1 with JR through online personal training. He coaches entirely online, between Birmingham and the Middle East, so there is no studio in the town and nothing to travel to. Northampton is a big county town with a strong warehousing and distribution trade, a university and a lot of people who drive to work. The plan is written around your hours.
Online, not in person
To be clear from the start: JR Coaching has no studio or gym in Northampton, and JR does not meet clients face to face. JR Coaching is run between Birmingham and the Middle East and delivered online, so it is available to anyone in Northampton with a phone and somewhere to train.
You get a training plan and nutrition targets written for you, a check-in every week that JR reviews personally, and message support in between. You train at the gym you already use, at home, or in a hotel gym when you travel.
Northampton · 01
Northampton sits beside a major motorway in the middle of England, and warehousing and distribution are a large part of local work. Those jobs often mean early starts, late finishes or nights, and a lot of time on your feet. JR takes that into account before writing anything. If your shift already has you walking and lifting for hours, the programme is kept to what you can recover from, usually fewer, more focused sessions placed on days off or before a late shift. Meals are planned around your breaks, with food you can carry and eat cold. Send JR the new rota when it comes out and he moves the sessions to match.

Northampton · 02
Most people in Northampton get around by car. Work, the school run and the weekly shop can all happen without much walking, and the town is spread out enough that this is hard to avoid. It adds up to low daily movement even when you train regularly. JR builds a step target into your plan and helps you find where the steps come from, such as a walk at lunch, parking further out or a short loop after dinner. Driving also shapes food. If you spend time on the road, service stations and drive-throughs become the default. JR gives you a short list of sensible choices for those stops, so one long day does not undo the week.

Northampton · 03
Northampton has a good spread of commercial gyms, including budget and 24-hour ones, along with the usual council facilities. Access is rarely the problem. Knowing what to do once you are through the door is. If you are new to training, JR writes a simple programme built on a small number of movements and tells you exactly how many sets and repetitions to do. It progresses in phases as you get more confident. Students at the university can use the same approach on a tight budget, with nutrition targets met from supermarket basics. If you would rather train at home, the plan is written for the equipment you own. Questions between check-ins go straight to JR by message.

Local detail

Abington Park and The Racecourse are good for laps on foot when you need steps or a steady run. Students at the University of Northampton can follow a plan on a tight budget. Coaching is online, so it reaches every part of Northampton.

Coaching for your goal
Getting started
The process is the same wherever you live.
Tell JR where you are now, what you want and what has got in the way before. It takes about three minutes.
JR replies personally. You agree the goal, the timeframe and whether coaching is the right fit, with no pressure either way.
A training plan and nutrition targets built around your schedule, your equipment, your food preferences and your starting point.
Weight, measurements, photos and how the week really went. JR reviews it and adjusts the plan so you keep moving.
Progress comes in phases. When one is complete you set the next: build, refine or maintain what you have earned.
Yes. JR builds your training days from your rota, not from a standard week. On a run of nights, sessions are usually shorter or moved to your days off, and meals are timed around when you sleep. Your weekly check-in is sent online at whatever hour suits you, so night work does not get in the way.
No. JR Coaching has no gym or studio in Northampton or in any other town, and JR does not meet clients face to face. The coaching is online. You use your own gym or a home set-up, follow a plan written for you, and JR reviews your check-in each week and adjusts it.
Yes. Tell JR in the application form that you are starting out, and the first phase is kept simple, with a few movements, clear instructions and manageable sessions. You can message him between check-ins if you are unsure about anything. As you get comfortable, the plan progresses. There are no crash diets, just nutrition targets you can keep to.
No. JR Coaching has no gym, studio or other premises in Northampton or anywhere else, and JR does not train clients in person. Coaching is delivered online, and you train at the gym you already use or at home.
Fill in the short application form. JR replies personally, you talk through your goal and your week, and if coaching is the right fit you receive a training plan and nutrition targets built around you.
