From injury to 1st Marathon

Arj is a great personal coach, he has helped me from injury to marathon in 8 months. I didn't need a full package access to a coach who texts daily and are involved a lot but just a coach who uploads my personalised training week by week and sometimes responds to my weekly reflection if needed. Arj is the only one i found that provides that "in between" service. This has helped transform my running to understand injuries more and to embed Strength and Conditioning to my routine. Kudos Arj!

Fitness Class

I have been attending Performance Physique's Zoom fitness class for the last two years and really look forward to it each week. Arj is motivational, gives personalised feedback and is consistently supportive and approachable. He creates enjoyable varied classes that make you feel positive and stronger. A great coach!

Review from Stephen Roberts

Age 44, Solihull
3 Month Coaching Programme
Start: 03Jan2022 – Finish: 03Apr2022
Target Goal: Manchester 2022 Marathon

Like many “self-coached” amateur runners I have always wondered about entering a full marathon but concern about preparation and finishing to the best of my ability has always stopped me from achieving this goal.

The 12-week coaching programme provided by Arj and his team has provided me the expert guidance and support, all personalised and tailored towards my needs and goals. From the weekly running plan, nutrition advice and online consultations I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Arj and look forward to my first marathon this coming Sunday in Manchester.

I have learnt so many things about my own abilities during this programme, surprised myself and possibly Arj too on a number of occasions! The improvement and progression I have seen would simply not have been possible without this coaching programme, it is exceptional value for any runner looking for one to one training.

I would thoroughly recommend Performance Physique, thank you Arj!

As a long course GB triathlete

As a long course GB triathlete, I recognised that the run is the area for much improve from a technique point of view.

I researched local run coaches to see the best fit for my needs, and Arj”s professionalism, enthusiasm, motivation was spot on.

Arj was flexible to accommodate my availability needs, and we worked over a sensible period of time to focus on my form, technique and leg drive.

The sessions were one thing but then there is the great video feedback which then you can take and train in your own time.

The work we put in has been paying off with a 7:30 min drop in my half marathon time which is massive.

I wid 100% recommend Arj and Performance Physique.

Arj is a great coach

Arj is a great coach to my son. He is knowledgeable, fair and highly motivating. Although my son is coached in a group setting, Arj ensures that he receives individual encouragement, support and feedback

An excellent after school activity for fun and fitness!

My six year old daughter absolutely loves her training sessions with Arj and the other trainers at Performance Physique. Her athletic abilities have improved at an unbelievable rate in less than 12 months. She is now able to run around the entire large sports track with ease, and is able to competently take part in an array of other athletic activities. Her fitness levels have vastly improved as has her stamina and focus. The trainers are extremely capable, and excellent at motivating the children! They make the training really fun for the kids, and often they think they are playing a game, when in fact they are actually learning important ways to coordinate their bodies and legs. I cannot recommend Performance Physique enough. My daughter and I are so pleased we found out about it! Thank you Arj and the team.

Kids' athletics session are fun but help all other sports

Arj and the team have run some excellent athletics sessions for my 8 year old child. Not only do the sessions work on technique and fitness they also make them really fun for the kids with a variety of athletics events, games and exercises. Not only has my child enjoyed the sessions the improvement in the other sports they do (rugby, swimming, etc) is so evident in terms of fitness and approach.

If you’re thinking of booking the sessions for kids definitely do it and you’ll see improvements outside of athletics too.

Hi Chris,

Thank you so much for your kind words! Your child is an absolute pleasure to coach and I am really glad to hear how you've noticed the transfer of skills and fitness he's developed on the athletics track with us, in their other sports.
All the best and thanks again!

Arj
