Having worked with Mike for many years, the sessions and training he provides have been a key factor in achieving my running targets. He provides specific and adaptable sessions tailored to my schedule and goals, which have definately kept me running stronger and achieving great race results! If you're looking to improve your running and/or general fitness, I'd highly recommend getting in touch with Mike.

I have been training with Running Stronger and Mike for just over 3 years and always had amazing service. Excellent programmes tailored to my running needs, gives top advice to aid with my running and always offer flexibility when I cannot make my regular slot. Mike is a really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable coach who I couldn't recommend highly enough!

I’ve been training with Mike Chambers for over a year now, and the difference he’s made in my running journey is incredible! Although I’ve been a runner since the age of 8, I never had the confidence to strength train on my own in the gym. Mike has been a game changer, helping me build that confidence while guiding me through crucial exercises to gain the strength I need for ultra marathon running. The improvement in my running has been extraordinary, and I feel stronger than ever. On top of his expertise, Mike also makes the workouts enjoyable with great conversation that makes each session fly by. If you're looking to boost your performance and enjoy the process, Mike is the coach you want!

Working with Mike at Running Stronger has been a game-changer for both my overall fitness and running performance. Mike's keen eye quickly identifies areas for improvement, crafting a diverse and engaging program that gently nudges you out of your comfort zone. S&C is a must for all runners who want to improve and stay injury free.

Mike at Runing Stronger has understood my mission and aims. His patience, support and training development has consistently stayed one step ahead of my gains, so I am always challenged and developing. Whilst I am feeling stronger and am remaining injury free, the most important metric is my marathon times are dropping significantly!   I cannot thank Mike enough.

I'm really delighted with my progress and the support and encouragement from Jon at ‘Running Stronger’ has been fantastic. The sessions are excellent for strength and conditioning, and are perfectly tailored for me. I feel really exhilarated after the session, having worked hard but in a controlled way that seems to push me just enough!

I enjoy running and doing sprint triathlons but I’ve had a knee injury which stopped me running. I struggled for a couple of years with my leg getting weaker and more painful. I am totally amazed by the improvement since starting with Jon. I’ve been able to go faster on Parkruns and I’ve just cycled 200miles from dawn til dusk on Chase the Sun, which was an unbelievable experience!

So a Massive Thank You to Jon at Running Stronger!

Such a highly specialist running strength - would absolutely reccomend.

I started with the running stronger team back in March and have honestly had the best track season of my life.

Until now I have done a little gym work here and there, but not on a regular basis and definitely had no formal programme or anything like that.

I am coached by Mike in the gym, and he focus all my strength work towards getting me running a quicker 800m and 1500m. Since March I have got a personal bests in 400m, 800m, 1500m and 5K!!!

I think the service is fab as you get a 45 minute session in a private gym where everything is geared towards running. It's also lovely to get to see someone on a regular basis who loves talking about running as much as you do!

Give it a go! ☺
