About Me Who I am

Andy Champ (BTEC Sports Science)

Andy Champ is an Experienced Strength Coach and Gym Owner.

I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience with others to enable them to improve their own performance and realise their full potential.

I have a vast experience in athletic performance and coaching across multiple sports.

I played semi-professional rugby up until my mid-twenties, both Rugby League and Rugby Union.

After my playing career, I went on to coach at Super League and Championship Level. This experience gave me valuable insight into the world of athletic performance.

Following on from my time in Rugby I discovered my passion for Powerlifting and strength sports. With focus, drive then applying the knowledge and experience I gained during my time as an elite Rugby player and coach, I was able to quickly excel as a Powerlifter, winning the British Championships in my first year. I have gone on to win a European bronze medal in the Bench Press and place within the top 15 at both European and World Championship in what is considered one of the most competitive weight classes in the world.

Throughout my career I have worked with a variety of athletes with varying levels of skill and ability. From students to elite sportsmen and women, in addition I have worked with disabled athletes in several sports.

I offer a comprehensive range of bespoke programming and coaching options.
