Client outcomes
One client began with no training background. Over 18 months, he lost 30 kg and entered the Royal Marines.
We supported a client who initially lacked confidence and direction. Eight months later, he entered a Royal Marines Young Officer batch.
Sam has supported clients entering both services as pilots. One client shared this update in our wins group: “I HAVE PASSED SELECTION FOR PILOT IN THE RAF.”
“Completed my first Ultra Marathon yesterday.” A 1-2-1 client shared the result after working through a difficult final few hours and a last climb to the finish.
Beyond military preparation, clients have completed Ironman events, ultramarathons and 24-hour races, and prepared for boxing bouts and BJJ competitions.
Individual outcomes, achieved over different timelines. These are not guarantees of a result within six months. Client identities are kept private. Quotes are reproduced from our wins group; the training-progress quote is from the wider Complete Commando community.
“Used this hill back before I started CC to start training my cardio. My PB back then was 1:27:30. I just managed it in 1:02:20. Absolutely unreal feeling”
“The ability to put myself out of my comfort zone and not let what others might be thinking affect how I chose to do things. My feeling of having purpose has grown massively since joining also.”

Before you enquire
No. Military preparation is a specialist area, but we also coach people for endurance events, sporting goals and fitness alongside work and family.
Tell us what happened and what you are preparing for. We assess your starting point, identify the areas that need work and discuss how individual coaching could help. No coach can guarantee selection or entry.
Your programme is built around your assessment and circumstances, reviewed weekly and supported by direct contact with both coaches. If you mainly want a programme to follow independently, we can point you towards a more suitable Complete Commando option.
No. Programming, WhatsApp support and calls are delivered remotely. Training with Sam in Merseyside is an additional opportunity for clients who can attend. Ask us about upcoming client days and arrangements before booking travel.
Coaching continues on a rolling monthly agreement. We explain the renewal and cancellation terms before you join.
