Online Coaching · Anywhere in the UK

Online coaching with a real coach in your corner, not a PDF in your inbox.

Structured training and nutrition built around what you have access to, with a weekly review and WhatsApp support. Based in Belfast, coaching clients across Northern Ireland and the UK.

In person at JD Gyms North Belfast or online across the UK · Level 3 qualified, insured and first aid certified · usually replies the same day.

Thrive Coaching Club provides online fitness coaching across the UK. Clients receive their training and nutrition plan in the TrueCoach app, log their week, and get a weekly review from Nick Jaison with feedback by WhatsApp message or video response. Online coaching includes the same standards as in-person coaching in Belfast, plus access to the Thrive Club community.

How online coaching works

  1. We talk firstYou message me, tell me what you have tried and what life looks like. If online coaching is the right fit I will say so. If it is not, I will say that too.
  2. Your plan goes into TrueCoachTraining, nutrition targets and habits, built around your gym, your home set-up or basic equipment, and your week.
  3. You train where you areLog sessions, food, steps and how the week went in the app. Film a set if you want technique checked.
  4. Weekly review from meEvery week I go through what actually happened and adjust the plan. Feedback comes as a WhatsApp message or a video response, so you hear the reasoning, not just the numbers.
  5. Message me when you are stuckBad week, a decision you are unsure about, a holiday coming up. You are not left on your own between reviews.

Who online coaching suits

Good fit

This is for you if

  • You can train on your own but need structure and accountability
  • You live outside Belfast, travel for work or do shifts
  • You want weekly feedback from a coach, not an app that nags
  • You have lost weight before and want to keep it off this time
Better in person

Same standards as in person

Common questions

What app do you use for online coaching?

TrueCoach. Your training, nutrition targets and habits live there, and you log your week in it. Feedback from me comes by WhatsApp message or a video response.

Do I need a gym for online coaching?

No. I build the plan around what you have access to. A commercial gym, a home set-up, basic equipment or a mix.

How often do I hear from you?

Every week you get a full review of your training, food, steps and habits, plus WhatsApp support in between whenever you are stuck.

Is online coaching worth it compared to a personal trainer?

It is if you need structure and someone in your corner, not someone counting your reps. You get the same standards as in person: a plan built around your life, weekly reviews and WhatsApp support. John coached online with me and now has more energy and maintains on his own.

Where are your online clients?

Across Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK. The coaching works anywhere you can train and message.

Can I switch between online and in-person coaching?

Yes. Some clients start online and add sessions at JD Gyms North Belfast, and some in-person clients move online when work or life changes. Same coach, same plan.

How long should I commit to online coaching?

Real change usually needs 6 to 12 months. Keeping the weight off is coached as its own phase, not left to chance.
