Training. Nutrition. Wellbeing.

I am a personal trainer based in Basel , Switzerland. I have 7 years experience working in a central London GYM, Gymbox Covent Garden. I am now based at Indigo fitness and Clever fit.

The key pillars of my training sessions are form and technique, mixed with postural training to help improve Skeletal problems. My aim is to pay attention to every single detail of execution in order get you the most tangible results out of every session.

Training has helped me figuring out who I wanted to be and has helped me going through challenging personal times.

This is one of the key reason why I want to be supporting people throughout their own journey.

I want to engage with my clients and use my personal experience and professional expertise to make it as easy as possible for my clients to get the results they want, deserve and need.

Together we will build a healthy relationship between food, fitness, self-motivation and well-being.

I offer bespoke training programs for my clients and I help with nutrition and food tracking to build sustainable habits.

I first met my client Fran in November She was under eating and doing way to much cardio causing her to feel very tired and just exhausted with her work schedule. Over the course of the months I put Fran on 1700 calories and high protein an carb intake whilst introducing strength training 4x a week into her routine , we reduced the cardio slightly too . Fran has gained around 5kg - 6kg of muscle and has completely changed her body composition. She’s looking leaner and fuller than ever before . I’m looking forward to seeing her progress in the coming months . 🤟🏻🙌🏼 • • • • #gym #trainer #transformation #baselswitzerland #workout #lifestyle

Client progression - My client hayley reached out to me in October after years of frustration of not being able to train due as she would get really bad back pains , which prevented her from even laying on her back let alone exercise. Hayley visited Drs and physio for around 5 years and didn’t get anywhere. After 2 months off training we managed to strengthen and Stretch Hayley’s body targeting certain muscle groups which have fixed the problem . Hayley will be moving onto upper / lower splits in a couple off weeks after doing full body’s for 3 months . Keep up the great work @accidentally_swassie looking forward to seeing what the next few months bring . (PICS taking 3 months apart)

I have been busy ✌🏼 • • • Calories - 3700 My goal this year was to gain some muscle mass that I lost during the lockdowns . I managed to bulk from 76kg to 87kg , but I felt that I was to big for my frame . My goal now is to maintain this body weight at 85kg but try to drop more body fat . I don’t do much cardio just around 15-20k steps a day . I’m eating lots of food , no restrictions . Training 4x a week . • • #basel #expats #trainer #personaltrainer #fitness #fitfam #lifestyle #health #programming #progress #motivation

Form check- Back squats ✅ • • • More often than not I see Back squats done incorrectly, people tend to not open the hips and fail drive the knees out , causing the squat to be restricted which will effect the depth . I like to Use a ramp to elevate my heels which allows a deeper squat an you load weight more on your hamstrings (if your fancy , get squat shoes ) 1. Grip the bar like you are doing a lat pull down. 2. Keep core tight 3. Hinge your hips forcing the glutes to the back off the room 4. Drive knees out when loading the squat , this helps engage glutes better and allows for a deeper squat. ✅💪🏼✌🏼 • • • Www.trainwithstephen.com • • • #insta #fitness #basel #expat #trainer #personaltrainer #coaching #movement #fitfam #squats #weights #bodypositivity #online #switzerland

Cardio doesn’t have to be boring , I like to switch between steady state cardio and high intensity circuit training depending on my energy levels . Aim to do cardio after my strength sessions , to help burn off more calories . 💪🏼🇨🇭✅✌🏼💨 • • Try this AMRAP / 3 min on 3 min off - 3-5 rounds 4 deadlift to press 3 burpees 4 hanging knee raises • • • #basel #switzerland #fitness #cardio #personaltrainer #fitfam #freelance #moving #progress #health #expat #personaltraining

How often do you change your program ? • • Something I see a lot on Instagram is “workout of the week” it’s one of the many bulls#%t myths in the fitness industry, people changing their program or routine every week . • • Why? Well how do you expect to have progressive overload on a exercise and get better at something if you keep on changing what your doing ! You need to follow a program through until you literally can’t push it any more or you are mentally sick off the program . Changing your program every week will not allow you to get stronger at the lifts your doing and you’ll find you’ll keep going around in circles. In the process of getting stronger you will be building muscle and strength, therefore dropping your body fat, which is the main goal for most people . For example imagine for instance your studying a degree, you wouldn’t just change your degree every week as you’ll be going in circles and eventually get no - where . 🤙🏼📸💪🏼✔️ • • • #fitness #instahealth #trainer #fitfam #video #facts #bodypositivity #insta #switzerland #basel #workout
