INTRO
It’s true.
Fixing 5 years of shoulder pain in just 12 weeks is possible.
And I know that sounds crazy.
That’s why I want you to meet Claudia.
STUCK FOR 5 YEARS… UNTIL EVERYTHING CHANGED
Claudia, a former IFBB bikini athlete, first injured her
shoulder in 2016 with a minor dislocation during training.
She spent the next 5 years living with:
❌ Dull aches and sharp pains
❌ A worrying “clicking” in her shoulder
❌ Fear every time she tried to lift
At first, she tried working around it.
• Avoiding overhead movements
• Going lighter on pressing
• Spending hours on stretches
• Taking time away from training to rest
But nothing worked.
Her pain got worse, not better.
Her shoulders felt fragile.
Her confidence in the gym plummeted.
And the hard-earned strength and muscle, that took her years to build, began slipping away.
WHY DID NOTHING WORK?
Claudia did what most people do:
✔️ Rested
✔️ Stretched
✔️ Sports massage
✔️ Tried PT rehab plans
But here’s the problem:
1/ Rest & massage
Reduce pain symptoms temporarily — but they don’t address the underlying problem, and so your issues come roaring back when you train again.
2/ Stretches
Ease tension for a few hours — but don’t rebuild the shoulder’s strength or stability. They make you weaker and less stable instead.
3/ Generic physio plans
Never prepare your body for the demands of real training. The gap is too big between a 3kg external rotation and a dumbbell shoulder press.
This isn’t your fault.
Most people are given surface-level solutions that don’t address the root cause.
And like Claudia, they end up stuck on a hamster wheel of quick fixes that fail to eliminate pain, tightness, or recurring injuries long-term.
The Smarter Fix:
Rebuilding from the Ground Up
When Claudia came to me, we didn’t chase symptoms.
We addressed the cause:
Her rotator cuff and stabilising muscles were overworked, and too weak to support her long arms and hypermobile shoulders. This is why stretches and band drills never stuck – they weren’t building the strength and control her shoulders needed.
So we rebuilt her shoulders from the ground up:
✅ Restored mobility and strength
✅ Rebuilt confidence in every lift
✅ Bulletproofed her shoulders for life
And she even built muscle along the way 👇
Claudia’s Transformation
12 weeks later, Claudia wasn’t just pain-free:
✅ Shoulder pressing heavier than she had in years
✅ Deadlifting and doing lateral raises confidently
✅ Training without hesitation, fear, or fragility
She went from tight, fragile, and in pain…
👉 To strong, capable, and confident in every position.
🎯 Even pull-ups at her photoshoot (something she’d avoided for years) felt effortless.
WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE?
Claudia spent 5 years stuck because she didn’t have the right plan.
She didn’t need:
🚫 More stretches
🚫 To rest longer
🚫 6-8 PT sessions
She needed a system to rebuild mobility, strength, and control—through her full range of motion.
Once she had that, her progress skyrocketed for the first time in 5 years.
✅ Faster results.
✅ Improvements that actually lasted.
Workouts were frustrating. I couldn't press or pull without having to stop mid-set ... And despite going to the hospital and seeing physios, nothing worked... the pain would ease short-term but would return.
WIth Ollie’s help I’m now able to train 100% pain-free, and I'm shoulder pressing 15kg DBs in each hand without any clicking! And my shoulders have grown too. I'm no longer frustrated or demotivated, and feel the strongest l've ever been.
It's crazy how much misinformation is out there, and I was hesitant to get Ollie’s help because nothing seemed to work up until this point, but I'm glad I did.
A QUESTION FOR YOU?
Most people let their shoulder issues drag on…
They lose muscle, their confidence in the gym fades, and in many cases, they edge closer to surgery… All because they delay taking action or keep repeating the same things that haven’t worked.
But if you:
✅ Feel limited and frustrated by a 6+ month shoulder issue
✅ Have already tried rest, stretches, and physical therapy
✅ Want to eliminate shoulder tightness, pain, and recurring injuries
✅ And get back to feeling strong, capable, and confident in the gym and daily life
Then here’s the reality:
You can keep trying what hasn’t worked…
Or you can book a strategy session with me to see if I can potentially help you.

Anyone who’s had an injury knows how frustrating and demotivating it is when you see yourself getting weaker and weaker.
Fast forward to now, I’ve taken out all forms of ‘recovery’ (such as tennis balls, stretching, foam rolling, massages). And I can get on with my life with stronger shoulders (it makes carrying groceries so much easier! 😅).
Feeling strong and feeling grateful.
