A certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with nearly two decades of experience across both the British Army and civilian sectors, Dean has trained everyone from tactical athletes in high-pressure environments to everyday people smashing extraordinary goals.

He’s not just a coach. He’s a leader, educator, and expert in human performance optimisation.

🪖 Military grit meets coaching excellence

With operational tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, and high-level roles at the Army School of Physical Training and the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, Dean brings a unique perspective on discipline, performance, and leadership.

🔥 In this episode, we dive into:

• The mindset behind elite performance, military or otherwise
