About Cal
Hi, I'm Cal.
I'm a personal trainer and online coach based on the Wirral, and I started Complete Performance because I got tired of seeing normal people talked out of fitness by an industry built for people who already look like fitness models.
I'd love to start this by telling you about my extensive background in fitness and listing all my sporting accolades — but if I'm honest, I haven't got any. I've always had a background in sport, but never at the highest level. I boxed as a kid before eventually finding weight training, and that's where I really found something I loved.
I've been fortunate enough to have some great mentors throughout my own fitness journey, and that's had a massive influence on the coach I am today.

More than just training
Being a dad changed how I coach.
Outside of coaching, one of the biggest parts of my life is being a dad.
Having my daughter has probably changed the way I look at fitness more than anything else. Training isn't just about looking good anymore. I want to be fit, healthy and capable for as long as possible, so I can be there for her and keep up with her as she grows up.
It's also given me a much better understanding of how difficult it can be to fit fitness around real life. Work, kids, family and everything else don't stop just because you've got a goal you want to achieve.
That's a big part of how I coach. I don't expect your life to revolve around the gym. I want to help you find a way of training, eating and looking after yourself that actually fits around your life.
Coaching philosophy
Why Complete Performance exists.
Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work with some amazing people, all with completely different goals. Whether that's losing weight, getting stronger, stepping in front of the camera for a photoshoot, preparing for a HYROX-style competition, or simply walking into a gym feeling more confident — I love helping people achieve something that matters to them. That's what Complete Performance is about.
What I enjoy most
You don't need to be an athlete.
You don't need years of training experience. You just need a goal you want to work towards.
“The coaching gave me the accountability and confidence I needed to get back into fitness. I lost over 10lbs, joined a gym again, and found a love for training I'd been missing. It brought me back to being me, not just a mum.”
