Meet Your New Coaches!

By May 13, 2018 No Comments

You might have noticed a couple of new names on the schedule. Without further ado, let me introduce you to our new CrossFit coach Steve and powerlifting & body composition coach Alex!

Steve Hennessy

Steve found CrossFit in 2013 and started coaching in 2014. Being in the fitness industry for some time, Steve found his true passion with CrossFit, and it affirmed his place in the industry. His highlight so far is getting the chance to teach CrossFit to asylum seekers in Papua New Guinea. During this time Steve discovered the true benefit that CrossFit can have, seeing the positives from people in the most trying circumstances.
Believing in a holistic approach to health, Steve has gone about studying various disciplines to become a better coach. He’s graduated as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, where he’s learnt to identify root causes of disease through hormone and gut testing, and is currently studying his Masters of Chiropractic. Steve uses this holistic approach to work with clients to find balance in nutrition, fitness and lifestyle.

Alex Miller

Alex has been coaching strength and power sports for the last 10 years. Before coaching, Alex was as a multi-sport athlete where he competed at both age group and senior levels and as a result has an almost unique understanding of the athlete mindset and what is needed to succeed.  At one point Alex had the number one fitness podcast in the world for rugby players and coaches. The repertoire of athletes he has coached is impressive to say the least and includes U.K. BJJ champs, professional K1 fighters, and world championship tri-athletes.
As something of a geek, Alex loves to apply scientific principles to his training methodology and is currently researching how you can use velocity, RPE, and neural programming to build a better athlete. Alex is now focused on applying his vast experience and knowledge to help the members at CrossFit London become as strong as possible!
