James Sieber Run & Strength Coaching

I’ve found James to be an extremely knowledgeable and professional running and strength coach. He is very patient, easily modifies exercises depending on what niggle I have that week - and really cares about his clients and their goals. Would highly recommend him, both for in person and online coaching!

I would recommend James to any runner no where you are starting from. The inderviduallity of his training plans are unique and adapted to what my priorities were. His planning and reasoning was always explained to me personally and then he managed to create a training programme that fitted into my life commitments. Communication was excellent with fast responses to any questions and our combined logbook allowed us to check in after each run and training block. James added elements of strength work that I had never done before, and have since learnt the extreme value of, in both performance ability and injury prevention.Would recommend to a friend :)

For years I struggled with knee pain, poor routine and lack of motivation. I wanted wanted to improve but became increasingly frustrated with aches and pains all over as soon as I ramped up my running. I finally decided to do what I should have done years ago and spoke to James for advice.The next 8 weeks completely transformed my running. He identified multiple factors that needed attention. I’m talking about weak muscle groups vs others, poor running technique, inadequate nutrition and simply how to reflect on my running experiences and adopt a better mind-set and way of approaching and enjoying my running.Testament to his program, I went from barely able to walk down slight slopes due to pain, to running the Kosci 50Km 6 weeks later. The tailored strength training and running schedule completely changed my running experience and I now run pain free and absolutely love it again!James is super flexible and will completely tailor things to suit your needs and ambitions. His knowledge and understanding of all things running is mind boggling. If you’re sitting on the fence, just have a chat with him and you’ll soon understand what I mean. All the best!
