You avoid the photos. You've gone up a size and called it comfort. Every Sunday night you promise yourself Monday.

Ten Spots.
One Coach.
Doors Open 24 August 2026.

I know the Sunday feeling — six years ago I was 25 stone, doing exactly the same. There's a way out. I've walked it, and I've coached 200+ people down it. Now I'm taking ten people from this gym through it with me. 1:1.

Fit Check

Read This Before You Fill Anything In

Founding ten is a hard cap. Better we both know now whether it's a fit.

This is for you if

  • You're within the 25-mile catchment of Blackwood (Newport / Caerphilly / Cardiff fits)
  • You can train at least once a week for 12 weeks minimum
  • You're done with class-pass gyms, group Reformer, and macro guessing
  • You'd rather be told the exact thing to do than have infinite options
  • You've got a PureGym Blackwood membership OR you're happy to get one (Core, £23.99/mo, no contract)

This is NOT for you if

  • You want fully online coaching — that's a different service, and it's good
  • You're outside Cardiff / Newport / Caerphilly commute range and expecting virtual sessions
  • You're under 18 (PureGym policy)
  • You're looking for someone to press play on a workout you've already written
  • You're not willing to change the way you eat
Your Coach · Julian

I've Been At The Bottom

Six years ago I was 25 stone. Out of breath tying my shoelaces. First out of any photo, or not in it at all. I didn't fix it with a diet — I built a system I could actually live with, and I've spent the years since handing it to other people. 200+ of them.

I'm a Level 3 PT and Strength & Conditioning coach, and I train out of PureGym Blackwood because I grew up here, my clients live here, and everything I know about coaching is sharper when I'm two feet away from you rather than behind a screen.

In-person is the version of coaching that actually works — I see your setup, your grip, your rest, the second the technique starts to slip. I can adjust the plan in the middle of a set, not three weeks later. If you're on the shortlist for the founding ten, this is what we're building together.

I've not forgotten what it feels like. That's exactly why I coach.
What that means for you
  • No judgement. I was the biggest person in every room. I know exactly what walking through the gym door costs.
  • Experienced or brand new — experienced lifters get the extra 1%. New starters build technique that's safe, correct, and quick to stick.
  • A system, not willpower. The plan fits the life you've actually got — shifts, kids, Sunday dinners included.
The Deal

The Founding Ten

Ten spots. Not eleven. Not "we'll see." I'm building this the same way I train — with a hard cap.

What founding clients get

  • The founding rate — £200/month for 4 sessions, £250/month for 4 sessions + online coaching, or £400/month for 8 sessions + online coaching (both online tiers include 2 weekly check-ins)
  • Full documented transformation (photos + measurements + strength log + a written case study you'll get a copy of)
  • Priority booking window — you pick your weekly slots before anyone else touches the calendar
  • Direct WhatsApp access for form checks and questions between sessions

What I ask in exchange

  • You commit to the month. No half-in.
  • You let me use your before/after and your story in Be The Change content (approved by you before it goes live)
  • You show up on time. You do the food. You don't disappear when it gets hard.

How the waitlist works

  • Fill the form below. £50 non-refundable deposit via Stripe holds your consultation slot.
  • On 24 August 2026 I open the calendar — waitlist gets the first 48 hours before I open it to anyone else.
  • If we're a fit at consult, £50 comes off your first month.
  • If we're not, the £50 covers the consultation time — I'll still send you a written training + nutrition summary you can take anywhere.
£200 instead of £250. £250 instead of £350. £400 instead of £500. That's the founding member offer — first 10 through the door, and only 10.

Questions

FAQ

Do I need a PureGym Blackwood membership?
Yes — you'll need a PureGym Blackwood membership (Core is £23.99/mo, no contract). It's separate from your PT fees and goes direct to PureGym. It's the cheapest gym you'll ever pay for, honestly. If you're already a PureGym member elsewhere, you can transfer your home gym to Blackwood in the app.
Where exactly is it and can I park?
PureGym Blackwood, Sirhowey Enterprise Way, NP12 2FS — Blackwood Gate Retail Park. Free parking, right next to Aldi. 24/7 access. 10 mins from Newport, 15 from Caerphilly, 25 from Cardiff.
What days and times are you available?
Weekdays 5:30am–9am and 4pm–8pm. Saturday mornings. Founding ten get first pick of their weekly slots before anyone else — that's part of why founding matters.
How much is it going to cost me?
In-person 1:1 PT is £75 for a single session, £250 a month for 4 sessions, or £400 a month for 8. Full Immersive — PT plus full online coaching — is £350 a month with 4 PT sessions included, or £500 a month with 8 sessions. The first 10 founding members get the reduced rate: £200 a month for 4 sessions, £250 for 4 sessions plus online with 2 weekly check-ins, or £400 for 8 sessions plus online with 2 weekly check-ins. If cost is the thing stopping you, tell me at consult and we'll be honest about whether the timing's right.
What's the difference between 1:1 and Full Immersive?
1:1 is the gym sessions — you train with me, and what happens between sessions is on you. Full Immersive adds full online coaching around them: your programme, your food, and 2 weekly check-ins. Most people who want the whole thing to change pick Full Immersive. If you only want the coaching without the gym, that's the online-only option.
What if I need to cancel a session?
24-hour notice, no charge. Same-day cancellation charged full — my time's already blocked for you. Illness or genuine emergency I use my judgement. Chronic no-shows I let go and open the slot up. Fair on both sides.
What actually happens after I join the waitlist?
You get a "you're in" email straight away with the launch date and a Loom from me explaining what happens next. Four days before doors open, waitlist gets a private booking link 48 hours ahead of everyone else. If you're one of the ten, we book your consult, apply your £50 to your first month, and start planning your training.
What if I'm not sure I'll be a good fit?
That's what the consult is for. It's a 30-minute call — I'll ask you about training history, injuries, food, schedule, what you actually want out of this. If it's not right, I say so up front — the £50 covers our consultation time and I'll still send you a written training + nutrition summary you can take anywhere. I'd rather have an honest no now than a bad first month.
