Hey, I’m Shahed! I’m a Personal Trainer at the Maindy Centre and Women’s Coaching Specialist. I once believed “show up and sweat” was enough. Spoiler alert: it isn’t. After being diagnosed with PCOS and later endometriosis, I realised motivation without a roadmap is just guesswork. I hit reset and focused on women’s physiology, clean lifting technique, nutrition foundations and sleep. With a clear program and better form, my strength went up, my cycle settled and my head felt clearer.

How I coach (simple and human):
- Move with respect. Exercise is a thank-you to your body, not a punishment.
- Master the basics. Solid form beats flashy moves.
- Look at the whole picture. Work, stress, food, sleep… yes, everything counts!

Whether you’re starting out or coming back after time away, I’ll meet you where you are and make the gym feel doable (and even enjoyable!). If you’ve felt lost in the noise online, you’ll like how clear and calm this feels.

If this sounds like the support you’ve been looking for, come say hi at Maindy or drop me a message and we’ll chat about your goals.
