Hey!

Im Rik, the principle trainer at Aurora fitness. I've been Personal Training and coaching in person for over 7 years now and can honestly say its been the best 7 years of my life, being able to work with my clients on their journey towards their goals both physically and mentally is incredibly rewarding for me and I feel very grateful for being able to help them on their way.

Moving my training to be accessible online was the most logical step for me to be able to reach further afield and help more people, regardless of location and situation.

I personally come from a very varied background of physical activity including many outdoor and adventure sports such as rock climbing, kayaking, mountaineering, caving, skiing and snowboarding, wild swimming, surfing.. To name but a few!

I live with a lifelong condition called Ulcerative Colitis, (a severe form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease). This can cause intense pain for months on end, hospitalisitions, and can have a huge impact on my body and mind. I've had to work through many physical and mental barriers and obstacles, I believe this has given me great empathy to help understand each one of my clients unique situations and help them work through their own obstacles. I believe the link between body and mind is incredibly important and therefore I work with my clients on not only their physical fitness but also their mental strength and mindfulness.

I am a great believer in simplicity, focus, and drive and this shows in my style of training. Everyone is unique, therefore every training program should be unique, I do not create standardised fitness programs, every workout and program I create is bespokely designed for each client after in depth conversations as to their specific situation.

I very much look forward to meeting you!

Open Ended Training

I am pleased to be able to offer you a complete online training program creation, and support subscription. Every workout is planned out – right down to load (weight), repetitions and rest intervals. This way I can accurately predict your progress, and eliminate the need for any guesswork on your part. all the workouts will be programmed into your own private personal training calendar, and are fully customisable by you to accommodate injuries/ illnesses etc. You will have secure access to a powerful app (both iphone and android compatible) that will allow you to view your program, upload all your workout data and statistics, message your trainer for support, view videos of all the exercises you are given, and view your progression charts and graphs to track your progress. You are able to syncronise your apple watch or fitbit and myfitnesspal account for completely automatic, accurate and real time data tracking. we can then use this to more accurately create bespoke nutrition and workouts plans. This product can also run alongside face to face training to create a complete training service. The subscription costs just £25 a week, around half the cost of a single face to face personal training session.
