Hello, I'm Adam!

This is me when I was 10. I'd love to tell you this is when my "love for mobility" burst through my veins and set me on a destined trajectory to get you & me wiggling on the floor (it didn't). I just think my long hair looks funny & how could you not appreciate those luscious locks.

I was always an active kid & bar the odd knock, bump or broken bone I never had any major issues or injuries. I was very lucky.

Fast forward to 18 & things started to go a little downhill..

I moved to Leeds to study sports science at university & ironically stopped playing any & all sport.

Truth is I waltzed right into the night life of Leeds and dived in head first. After a few years of drugs, alcohol & little sleep. Looking back, I didn't feel too good (mentally or physically - shock.)

When I did first dabble in the gym I dislocated my shoulder trying to lift 12kg above my head.

I felt like I wasn't "built for exercise" anymore.

I was pretty badly underweight, miserable & ended up getting bacterial meningitis, twice.

This isn't a story about how I jumped into action, reveling in my new found appreciation for life & immediately embarked on my mobility mission to better the world (these both came a few years down the line).

It was absolute the opposite. I carried on living my life the same & I felt horrendous. I felt sore, stiff & weak (mentally & physically).

In 2016, the year after I graduated, I started dabbling in the gym (even though I felt like a lil duck out of water) 

I was horribly inconsistent for years. Mostly because of my "all or nothing" mentality towards exercise & the injuries I kept picking up along the way (most likely from doing too much too quickly).

But every time I exercised; I felt good. I started feeling a little better (again, shock.)

In 2019 & I was finally in my  exercise groove. 3 years failing to make training a habit. I started to build momentum (& a lil bit of muscle). I started gaining a little confidence in my body & suddenly, we were slapped by the pandemic.

Exercise started becoming the only thing that kept me sane (unlike my current job). So I took a gamble after 7 years as a charity fundraiser, to quit my job and become a personal trainer...

Safe to say I haven't looked back!

I fell in love with helping people get moving & just bloody loved seeing a human you adore walk away from a PT session feeling a little better. It wasn't about helping you get shredded, or massive (although I wouldn't say no to some more muscle), just helping you move a lil more & feel a lil better.

There are so many barriers to exercise and movement, beyond just physical & I wanna do my best to chip away at those barriers bit by bit by bit...

Which brings us to now, to this: my little pride, You, Me & the Floor!

This lil Mobility Library was designed to make movement accessible, to encourage you to get on the floor a wiggle along with me. Without any need for equipment or even to leave your house. Just to MOVE!

A place for you to wiggle at your pace, find what works for you and aim to move more & feel better (& hopefully meet some lovely people along the way)

I hope you love it & I hope it helps you fall in love with moving a lil more x
