Four years at university resulted in a Degree in Leisure Management, but also a sedentary lifestyle, poor diet and a body that tipped the scales at over 22 stone. After experiencing health problems, I took that defining look in the mirror, realized something was very wrong, and went on a mission. By taking up running, jujitsu, and football again and developing a much better diet, I gradually dropped to 14 stone.

After years of working in an office and getting pretty burnt out, I decided a career change was required. I retrained as a personal trainer and established Bison Personal Fitness. After qualifying I continued to study and progress, eventually becoming a specialist trainer in Obesity and Diabetes Management. In doing so, I fulfilled a goal to help others navigate the exact journey I made in my twenties.
