WHO YOU ARE WORKING WITH

Charlie Cooke

HDip · BSc · ANutr · MSc · CIMSPA Accredited · Newcastle University Performance Coach

Over a decade of coaching. Hundreds of clients. One method — the Fit For Purpose approach that starts with the person, not the plan.

Charlie is an accredited nutritionist, certified personal trainer and performance coach for the Newcastle University boxing team. For the past 10 years he has read countless books across health, fitness, habit formation and performance.

The Fit For Purpose Method came from watching capable, motivated people fail programmes that were never designed for their life. Running With Purpose is that method applied to one specific problem — making running a meaningful, sustainable part of a busy adult's life.

He is not a transformation coach. He is not selling a body. He is building a system around the person in front of him that guarantees results.
