It’s all change here at 3D and we’re really excited about it. August has seen the arrival of a brand new CrossFit coach to refresh and reinvigorate our WODs and bring new energy to the gym.
Ashley is a fully certified CrossFit Level 3 Trainer (CCFT). He’s also a CrossFit Certified Olympic Weightlifting Coach, CrossFit Certified Kids Trainer and CrossFit Certified Gymnastics Trainer. He practically IS CrossFit.
Alongside his CrossFit experience Ashley holds qualifications in a huge range of sport and fitness areas, and was a Muay Thai coach in a former life. He’s also trained in Traditional Thai Massage. Just saying.
Ashley’s coaching has taken him around the UK, over to Hong Kong, up to Canada and back here again. Before moving to 3D and bringing his massive amount of experience, Ashley lived in Hong Kong for 12 years and owned and ran his own box.
With over 20 years helping clients all over the world achieve maintainable results, Ashley has trained every kind of client. Whether that’s pregnant women and postpartum mothers, high fliers in high-stress jobs or dedicated athletes. His work has allowed him to create a balanced, results driven approach to training that can be adapted for all ages, body types and goals. Which is exactly what we strive for at 3D, and how we know he’ll fit right in.
Ashley also incorporates hypertrophy and high intensity techniques in his own training and clientele programming. This allows him to achieve his own targets and the ambitions of his clients. Watch out for him bringing this approach to his classes at 3D. In his own words he is “a firm believer that knowledge is power!” and never stops educating himself in order to coach the most up-to-date and accurate information.
When he isn’t coaching at the gym, offering up Thai massages or reading up on new techniques, Ashley loves football and horror films, and is a husband and father. We know our members will give him an awesome 3D welcome and we’re incredibly excited to have him join Team 3D.
