JAMIE FARRELL, PERSONAL TRAINER IN LONDON
ABOUT
Jamie’s journey into health and wellbeing began at a young age when he recreationally participated in various sports. He found his passion in track and field during his teens and acheived national standard in multiple events and later on, ventured into the world of professional wrestling as a young man. Jamie worked within corporate environments whilst he completed his studies, where he gained a comprehensive understanding of busy professionals and their schedules. Since becoming qualified, Jamie has gained numerous industry leading qualifications and created his own training system using this collective accumulation of knowledge and experience.
TRAINING APPROACH SUMMARY
In my opinion and in summary, every workout must be guided by a foundational training philosophy. A certified ideology should underpin any effective training system and function as a constantly evolving theory of practice, that guides the learner towards their own goals and ultimately the discovery of their own epistemology. This progressive method of development creates an infrastructure of values, that are guided by the advancements of modern research and the accumulation of information from peers, which subsequently creates a sustainable maturation for the persons long-term health and wellbeing.
