"No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training... what a disgrace it is for a person to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which the body is capable." - Socrates



Thank you for stopping by to check out my website/blog....I guess should start by telling you a little about myself and what this site is all about.



INTRODUCTION
My name is Jesse Henning and I'm a freelance personal trainer based in and around Saffron Walden, Essex.

From a young age I have been involved in physical culture/fitness, originally coming from a background in martial arts, acrobatics and swimming - in more recent years I have developed a growing passion in strength sports (powerlifting, bodybuilding, strongman...etc.) which I continue to pursue.

Like many people, when I first became interested in the gym I was pretty overwhelmed with the amount of information out there.  With so many trainers, programs, diets, exercise gadgets and diet fads, it's no surprise that the fitness industry has evolved into one that largely thrives on people's confusion and prey on the misinformed.

Walk into many big leisure clubs or fitness centres and you will see a common theme - monstrous facilities crammed full of shiny machines, chrome weights and high pressure sales people.  In this environment, it’s a sanitized, watered down, politically correct form of fitness which is much more about image rather than substance.

It is therefore my mission to push for a return to the golden era of physical culture that will not only save you the time and money but also prevent the frustration and unwanted health risks that many people experience in the pursuit of physical fitness. 

My central focus as a trainer is to be solution based and results driven with an emphasis on simplicity - no secrets, no confusing scientific formulas, fancy gadgets or bosu balls, no information overload.....just a straightforward and consistent approach to exercise and nutrition that delivers results.
