CrossFit 3D
Trainers
At CrossFit 3D, we believe that training should prepare you for the challenges that life throws at you – the ‘unknown and unknowable’. Our coaches do this by offering an inclusive programme tailored to meet the needs of each and every individual that trains with us.
Michael Madden
Mike has been coaching people to get fit and healthy for over 18 years from 121 sessions to group training. During this time he’s also worked as an educator in the fitness industry helping 100s of fitness professionals improve their knowledge and coaching skills. Mike has coached people from a multitude of backgrounds and abilities, from athletes and fitness professionals to Mums, Dads and office workers. Mike’s passion has always been in helping and teaching ordinary folk just how extraordinary they can be with a little help and guidance.
Will Skipp
Will has been coaching CrossFit both in-person and online for going on 4 years and has an education backed coaching style, completing a degree in Sport and Exercise Science before turning to coaching full-time at 3D.
With a passion for cultivating performance for athletes of all abilities, Will heads up our ‘Fit’ and ‘Perform’ programmes that deliver sessions to complete beginners all the way through to competitive athletes and Adam’s best mate.
Alex Lenkowski
Alex coaches the Build class at 3D and works privately with sports athletes who want clear structure, high standards and real results. Since completing his Sports Coaching degree in 2014, he has specialised in team-sport performance, supporting athletes across multiple sports.
As a Great Britain American Football team captain, Alex understands what it takes to lead, compete and improve under pressure. His coaching blends strength and power development, speed and movement quality, and simple recovery strategies, keeping the focus on what matters: getting stronger, faster and more resilient, week after week.
Outside the gym, Alex delivers talks in schools and corporate environments, educating and motivating audiences to build durable bodies, better habits and higher standards.
Michael Stretton
Meet Michael, or Strets. Michael has been a member of CrossFit 3D for 11 years and coaches our CrossFit Kids and Teens classes. He’s also the Head of PE at a secondary school so is basically a glutton for punishment.
When coaching our youngest members, Michael loves seeing how much excitement and energy they have and how, for kids, exercise is just another way to play. With our teens classes, he loves helping them push themselves and achieve something they didn’t know they could.
If he’s not at the gym, either training or coaching, he’ll be out with his own kids, making chocolate brownies or enjoying a pint of some pretentious craft beer.
Cara Brown
Cara is a physiotherapist and former Great British Skeleton Athlete who brings a wealth of experience in movement, performance, and injury prevention to the CrossFit community.
Cara loves helping people move better, get stronger and helping them reach their full potential. When not coaching, she can often be found training and competing in CrossFit competitions.
She doesn’t like coffee, which is something we didn’t know until she started with us and its now too late.
