Henry Smith - Train With Henry
Hi, I’m Henry - the coach behind Train With Henry.
I am a qualified PT, nutritionist and menopause coach and put simply: I am looking to help as many people as I can to improve their health.
In my profession, I have come aware of the overwhelming lack of support for people looking to get strong as they get older. And whilst there are gyms to accommodate all ages, people above the age of 40 often feel they don’t fit in. If you are looking to go back to the gym after years or decades without training, taking your first step isn’t always easy and being surrounded by big gym guys and equipment you have no idea how to use isn’t going to fill you with confidence.
But despite this, we need it!! As we pass the age of 30, muscle loss accelerates at a rate of roughly 3-8% per decade. Strength training is not only important, it is essential for keeping our independence as we age.
And this is why I created Train With Henry. Unlike your typical gym, Train With Henry is a welcoming and safe way to learn strength training for over 40s. And with the support of a qualified coach, you can learn about how to become stronger as you age through exercise, nutrition and for my female clients: menopause training.
Now a little less about Train With Henry, and more about Henry…….
Running is my background as well as my therapy. I don’t enjoy it but love the post run high as well as the group of friends I have made through my sport. I am also a keen solo traveller. Going off the beaten path booking a place I know nothing about always excites me and is the one thing I miss / look forward to when I’m working. And finally, I love music mainly made before I was born, making my playlist a very popular one for my demographic. Test me on my music knowledge and you would be surprised…..
