When Josh joined the DVCC over three and a half years ago he had recently completed his level three personal training course. He arrived at the DVCC in an extremely low cut t-shirt and a pair of famous blood red Adidas joggers, which no one has seen since. He was at this point working as a swimming coach as well as a freelance personal trainer.
Chauffeured
He was taken on as the Transformation Expert of DVCC MK. He didn't drive at the time and was chauffeured to and from the Milton Keynes centre every morning and evening for the first couple of weeks while given time to pass his driving test. Failing that he would have been traveling to Milton Keynes by moped! Josh is a very determined character and passed his driving test confidently.
Josh himself will tell you that he wasn't always as eager to exercise as he is now. While at uni he one day decided that he was going to start getting up at the crack of dawn and start skipping as he didn't like how he was feeling and wanted that to change along with some of the habits which he had developed while being a student. This one change was what started him on the journey to become the man that he is today.
Popular Figure
Josh is the kind of person you want to have around. He's positive, driven, upbeat and always has a story to tell. After a successful period as manager of DVCC MK, Josh took on the same role but in Bedford. Since then he has helped many clients to transform their lives and is a very popular figure among clients and colleagues.
Researcher
Josh is a learner and a researcher. A couple of christmases gone, the team were in MK and were each given the task of buying themselves a present, within 30 minutes for a limited amount and anything not spent would be given to local charity. While the majority of the Transformation Experts ran off in their own directions panicking about where they should invest, Josh calmed walked to the apple store and researched on one of their computers where he could find some books he had wanted to read, he then went a brought the books.
Job done. How productive and precise. Josh to our knowledge didn't get around to reading those books, but he did realize that audio books are a much better choice for him. For us this is what Josh is about, researching, then doing and then learning from the experience.
Game Face On
There is a darker side to Josh. Each week on a Monday afternoon, usually around 1.30pm during a routine team meeting, something happens to Josh. It starts with a coffee, which is completely out of character as Josh rarely drinks coffee. Then a set of headphones appear. The game face is on. Josh is in competition mode.
Great Sportsman
This is a man who will pull out all the stops to make sure that he wins the DVCC weekly trainer challenge. (If you would like to view the latest trainer challenge on our facebook page, please click here).
If you were to ask him if he regards himself as a competitive person, he would likely tell you that he is the most competitive person! Josh dominated the trainer challenge for some time, however when he doesn't win he is a great sportsman, no matter how much he is burning inside.
Josh has played a big role in helping many of the DVCC clients achieve the results they have, the development of the DVCC and the development of the current team of transformation experts and always has wise words of advice.
