1-1 OR 1-2 COACHING IN A PRIVATE HOME STUDIO OFF WANDSWORTH COMMON

Hi, I am Colum Reilly, an independent personal trainer based in Wandsworth, Southwest London. I help busy 30+ adults build functional strength, improve their mobility & reclaim balanced energy levels without extreme body transformations or strict diets. I also work with people who are returning from injury and many of my clients are women who are post-partum or experiencing different stages of the Menopause.

About Your Coach

In person 1-1 approach to improving your general health by improving your current exercise levels, nutritional habits & daily lifestyle.

I’ve always been active, growing up on a farm & playing competitive sport until my late 30’s. A decade later approaching 50, i’m fitter & stronger than i’ve ever been by keeping a consistent weekly exercise routine that combines mobility work, running & strength training.

 

Through ongoing fitness & nutrition certifications i’ve learned there are no quick fixes to increasing your lean muscle, decreasing your body fat or improving your cardiovascular endurance! So, I always base my programming off sound exercise & nutrition principles.

Having coached as a certified PT since 2019 working with mostly 30+ busy adults who’ve usually neglected their own health & fitness over career and/or family, I know first-hand that our bodies feel & respond differently to exercise than they did in our twenties.

 

The good news is that having a personalised exercise programme based off an open 60 min consultation, movement screen & body composition scan can quickly negate you feeling stiff, out of breath or weak in certain movements, as we’ll base your programme off your ‘training age’ over your ‘biological age’ & fit it into your busy home & work life.

 

Fitness influencers on Social Media portray a life where you push yourself to exhaustion in a busy gym, count every calorie & have an optimised lifestyle. My approach is completely different but also very effective as based on everyday reality: to provide a 1-1 or 1-2 highly supportive environment where we build genuine strength, improve your mobility & cardiovascular endurance, and establish nutritional & lifestyle habits that fit that you can sustain.

Coaching Philosophy

The Three Pillars of health (& Longevity)

My business logo & coaching philosophy is based off the Celtic Trinity Knot showing the interconnectedness of life.

I believe Exercise, Nutrition, and Lifestyle do not exist in isolation. When aligned, they support sustainable progress that lasts for life with each one supporting the other. This alignment will greatly improve your quality of life through feeling strong, mobile & healthy.

Exercise

Resistance Training focused on building full body strength including your core & abdominal muscles. We train daily movement patterns (squat, hinge, press, pull, lunge, carry & core) tailored to your joint health, & mobility work so you can move functionally.

Every session will also include Cardio of different intensities, based off your current fitness levels.
