1:1 Coaching
Fuel Better Sport Nutrition
Alex's Story
Prior to working with Jamie, I never had a healthy relationship with food, for as long as I can remember. As I got a bit older, this became increasingly problematic as I found myself interested in weightlifting. I found that although I was lifting weights and exercising 3-4 times a week, I did not know how to fuel my body effectively enough to make progress in my lifting and to achieve the body recomposition that I was after.
When I started to work with Jamie I had hit a wall whereby I was no longer hitting PRs, I was sustaining minor injuries and I was in a bit of a rut physically finding that I was not satisfied with my progress. I was desperate to make some positive changes but I just wasn’t sure where to start. Jamie helped me to understand how to fuel my body like an athlete, feel full all day and still eat all the foods I love.
When I was having a bad day, doubting myself or about to give up, Jamie was always there to chat about things that I felt were holding me back or impeding my progress – and what I felt I was doing well. Having that support 24/7 was a complete game changer.
Now I’m honestly in the best shape of my life, having lost body fat and gained lots of muscle – and I feel so much better for it. I’m continuing to hit PRs and perform optimally which keeps me motivated to keep going. I can’t recommend working with Jamie enough because I now have an understanding for nutrition that I can continue to use on my own to continue to get stronger and lift heavy. I have amended my lifestyle, not just my diet, and I feel so much better for it.
How We Work
The first step of your journey is to book a free consultation call, where you can get to know us better and we can get to know you and decide if Balance is the right fit for you.
You will then be sent a screening questionnaire and once this is returned you will be assigned a dietician or nutritionist coach who is the right fit for you.
Your coach will create a nutrition and lifestyle plan unique to you and your goals. Each week, you will check in with your coach reflecting on how your week has gone and they will give you feedback and an updated plan and advice for the week to come.
Every fortnight you'll also have a more in depth phone call to cover your progress, make any changes and reflect on your goals.
Throughout the week you will also have access to your coach via The Balance Coaching App, WhatsApp and email for support or any questions you may have.
Each week will be a stepping stone towards your goals and achieving your healthiest, happiest self!
The Balance Coaching App
The Balance App is your all in one home for your Balance coaching journey.
The app contains all of your information, programs, plans, coaching information, tracking and meal recording abilities as well as check in functionalities all in one place.
You can communicate directly with your coach via the app, either by voicenote or message, and update your food diary throughout the day with either meal logging, photographs or even syncing up MyFitnessPal to automatically integrate any tracking completed via that app.
You can also link MyZone and FitBit to track your exercise activity.
Your Pocket PT
As part of your overall 1:1 coaching package we are now also offering additional online personal training to those who wish to engage with it.
This is entirely optional as we have had many clients who manage their own programming, aren't quite ready to engage in that level of activity or who are professional athletes and have a strength and conditioning coach / performance coach already.
For those who do wish to work with us in a personal training capacity as well however you can expect fully tailored exercise programming (including video demonstrations and exercise guides) designed to compliment your nutrition coaching and take you that one step closer to your goals.
