This can include people who've got all the qualifications and what-not, and people who may have few if any official qualifications but you'd go to them if you wanted to get strong.

Share your knowledge!

Giles Greenwood of Bethnal Green Weightlifting Club and Dave Beattie of Genesis are two people I rate very highly and have had the good fortune to be coached by. Have seen them train everyone from real talents to complete beginners. Both have been there and done it too.

Tommy Yule I only know by reputation but apparently S&C students think he is some kind of coaching God!

Who else?

I have been fortunate enough to have travelled to Worlds and Europeans with both Ron & Arun - both great coaches, both week to week and on an International stage.

Also Keith Morgan - I don't think any other gym in the Country comes even close to matching Crystal Palace's record of success - in the relatively short time I trained there there were three lifters with a 200kg+ C&J, four Commonwealth Champs, IPF World Champ & IPF World medalists and too many International weightlifters and powerlifters to remember the total.

Arun Singh is the best guy I have worked with. Coached 2 world champions in the modern era which is no mean feat! His input has definitely made me a better lifter.
