About James from ghp
James' History. Why GHP? Why Now?
After achieving a Degree in Exercise Science and a Post Graduate Diploma in Exercise Rehabilitation, I became an accredited Exercise Physiologist and worked at The University of Melbourne for eight years. Over time, I successfully gained jobs in different fields, including working with GP Registrars and at the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.
I have trained Elite Athletes, 'Gym-Junkies' and first-time exercisers. I understand that it's important to get to know how to get the best out of someone according to their fitness levels, experience and confidence.
Whilst I have recently been working away from the health and fitness area, I have continued my Personal Training and coaching and kept training myself. The challenge of the Pandemic has helped me rediscover my passion for the fitness and health coaching space and the motivation to create Garland High Performance!
High Performance isn't exclusively the domain of elite athletes; it's helping you explore and reach your physical potential. I am here to help optimise you by getting you moving consistently and keeping strong so you can live your high performance lifestyle.
My job is to empower you to manage your mind, body, emotions and resources to 'self-manage optimally'. This means better choices, behaviours, habits and outcomes on Planet You!
The goal is lasting change.
GHP's philosophy on Fitness Training
CONSISTENCY
GHP understands how important consistency is in achieving your goals. If you are interested in working with me, we will talk about what goals you would like to set and achieve, what has stopped you from reaching these goals in the past and then how we can work together to achieve them.
REMEMBER...
Of course, not everyone is the same physically or psychologically. Understanding this is vital when it comes to goal setting and achieving. Reaching your goals may not just involve exercising; it will most likely require adjustments to your recovery, nutrition, motivation and commitment. It can also be a bit of fun too!
