Meet your coach

I’m Liam.
I practise what I coach.

I’m a Level 4 Strength and Conditioning Coach, personal trainer and semi-professional footballer. I combine real coaching experience with performance training to help everyday people get results that last.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about having the right plan, learning what works for your body and becoming stronger than the excuses holding you back.

  • Training built around your goals
  • Clear technique and honest feedback
  • Support, accountability and structure
  • Strength, fitness and confidence—not just scales

My philosophy

CAPABLE OF
MORE.

“Be Stronger Than Your Excuses.”

Ever since I was young, I’ve believed that we’re capable of far more than we often give ourselves credit for. I’ve always wanted to push beyond my own limits, improve and see what I was truly capable of. That mindset has shaped the way I live and the way I coach.

Fitness isn’t just about changing how you look. It’s about building confidence, developing discipline and proving to yourself that you’re capable of more than you thought possible. That confidence doesn’t stay in the gym—it carries into every area of your life.

The reason I became a coach is simple: I want people to feel comfortable in their own skin and believe in themselves. There’s nothing more rewarding than watching someone achieve something they once thought was out of reach, whether that’s losing weight, building muscle, improving performance or simply becoming happier and healthier.

I don’t believe in settling for mediocrity. I believe in continuous growth, challenging yourself and becoming a better version of who you were yesterday.

That’s the philosophy behind THIRKS FITNESS.
