I cannot recommend James Charlish highly enough. After picking up a knee injury post-Ironman, I reached a point where I’d lost hope of getting back into training. James quickly identified the issue, educated me on what was going on, and built a tailored plan. His understanding of biomechanics, muscle imbalances and joint loading is outstanding, and every session has been a thoughtful adjustment of workload and exercise progression. Thanks to his professionalism, attention to detail and constant encouragement, I’m now back up and running and training hard again. If you’re dealing with muscle, knee or joint issues, James is THE MAN!!
