Get to know Chris Davies, one of our Ride Perform instructors, catch him on Monday at 7PM and Friday at 7AM… 

I am a father of two boys, Abel 5 and Jude 11 months and a fiancée Danielle. I enjoy watching and playing football and  I also coach my son, Abel’s, football team. I do feel like a taxi in my spare time, taking Abel to swimming, football, boxing or rugby. Busybee, therefore it’s nice to sit down and chill in the evenings and be ready for my early morning spin classes!

Why did you become a personal trainer?

I became a PT 13/14 years ago. The main reason was my love for playing sports and keeping fit and healthy (so I can eat and drink what I want) and to help others do so too. 

What do you love about being a personal trainer? 

I love it because I was helping others improve their health, life and general wellbeing. Seeing the smiles on peoples faces, when they have lost weight, completed a challenge we set is really…. Well if that isn’t job satisfaction what is? 

What is your favourite exercise?

Definitely a deadlift because it hits every muscle in one movement! 

What is your least favourite exercise?

Burpees – isn’t this everyones?!

What drives you?

Helping people to hit their goal however big or small it is. 

 

A quote to live by…

(Not so much a quote but song lyrics.)

From Jimmy Eat World – The Middle 

Hey, don’t write yourself off yet

It’s only in your head, you feel left out

Or looked down on

Just try your best

Try everything you can

And don’t you worry what they tell themselves

When you’re away

What is your favourite treat?
