About
Hi, I'm David, a Personal Trainer at Oulton Hall.
Football came first. I trained and played through the academies at Brentford FC and Barnet FC, chasing a professional career from a young age. When that path closed, I carried on playing semi-professionally before stepping away for university — and I had to rebuild, not just physically, but figure out who I was without the sport that had defined me. I started training seriously at university, and went from skinny to pulling 200kg off the floor.
Before I became a trainer, I worked in a care home. I saw first-hand what happens when the body is left to sit still for too long — the falls, the fading independence, the strength that never comes back. That stayed with me. It's a big part of why I train people the way I do: not just for how you look, but so you stay capable, strong, and independent for the life you actually want to live.
I know what it's like to lose your identity and have to rebuild it — so I coach with real patience, whatever stage you're starting from — no judgement, just a clear plan and someone in your corner.
Come say hello at Oulton Hall, or message me to book your first session.
