Coach Wilko

Enjoy what you do & you'll do it again. We help you do this to your training, eating & general lifestyle!

Looking specifically at what an athlete needs in training is critical; these needs must be constantly accessed and kept in sight through-out all training sessions to increase overall gains. By coach and athlete working together in monitoring performance objectives such as weight loss, muscle gain or sporting performance, gains can be highlighted positively and reinforce all the efforts everyone ha

s gone through to improve. My knowledge towards nutrition is forever growing and with 80% of your gains coming from what goes into your system it’s vitally important to get it right whilst still enjoying what you’re eating.

Another weekend, another huge step forward for
Wilko’s Gym 2.0.

We tackled the final third of the gym, shifting kit, deep cleaning, repairing, painting and putting in some proper
back-breaking hours to get this place looking fresh and ready for another week.

Seeing it all come together gives me a massive sense of pride. Running a gym has been one of the toughest, most exciting and challenging things I’ve ever taken on… but moments like this remind me exactly why I do it.

And there’s plenty more coming. Adult classes. Youth classes. More improvements. More energy. And most importantly, an amazing training space where I want everyone who walks through the door to have the best hour of their day.

Massive thank you to everyone who’s helped make it happen. Come along for the ride I’ve got a feeling it’s going to be a good one.

Didn’t ever see this coming.

A massive thank you…

The Wilko’s Gym 2.0 refurb post has officially become my most liked post ever on the Coach Wilko page and I genuinely can’t thank everyone enough for the support.

The positive comments, fresh energy and love for what we’re building means a lot. The gym feels fresh, we’re proud of the space again and hopefully I’ll see plenty of you coming through the doors for training, a chat and, of course, a decent coffee ☕️

Onwards with Wilko’s Gym 2.0. This is only the beginning.

Support good people. Support local.

I genuinely can’t thank the team at Southern Dreams enough.

Over the years I’ve come here to recover in the hot and cold through competitions, fatigue, stressful times and just those days when life feels a little heavier.

And every single time, I’ve walked away feeling better physically and mentally.

Could you find something cheaper somewhere? Probably. But you’re not just paying for a sauna or an ice bath. You’re supporting a local business, great people and a team who have genuinely supported me through the good times and the tough ones.

That means something to me.

So I’ll always support, recommend and shout about Southern Dreams.

From a very grateful customer, supporter and friend; so a massive heart felt cheers guys. Here’s to plenty more recovery sessions.

We all have those “not today” moments…

We all have those sessions where things don’t quite go to plan. You’re tired, life’s been busy, your head isn’t quite there, or your body simply hasn’t recovered. That isn’t a loss, it’s information. If you don’t win, you learn. My recent lifting session reminded me that after two heavy sessions, a busy week and plenty going on emotionally, I simply wasn’t in the best place to perform. Rather than beat myself up, I learned from it.

Good training isn’t about smashing yourself every single day. It’s about understanding when to push, when to recover and how to come back better prepared. Sometimes you have to go there to come back. Having a coach who understands those moments, has lived them and can adjust the plan accordingly can be the difference between simply training and actually progressing.

Wilko’s Gym just got upgraded…

Well over 24 hours this weekend spent repairing, cleaning, clearing out, rearranging and painting. A massive team effort from me, Emma, Ashton and Luke to get the gym looking and feeling like a space we’re proud of again.

Fresh paint. Fresh layout. Same mission, to give every single person who walks through the door the best hour of their day.

Come in, grab a coffee, have a look around… the gym’s looking good and we can’t wait to coach. ☕️🏋️

Add more life to your years…

I’m not looking to simply add more years to my life. I want to add more life to the years I’ve got.

That’s how I coach. Set goals. Move forward. Train smart. Stay injury-free. Enjoy the process. Give it everything.

Do that consistently and the good stuff happens.

Why programming your rest days is AWESOME!

It’s great to push, graft and chase that next level.
But remember it’s rest that fills your vest.

Have a lie-in. Prep some decent food. Hydrate. Get out of your usual postcode and see a bit of the world.

I love training and I adore coaching, but sometimes the best thing you can do for your performance is switch off, de-stress and spend time with the people who support you every step of the way.

Recover properly. Come back hungry. Then we go again.
