Introduction
The Relaxed Athlete is dedicated to an active lifestyle while keeping a relaxed, positive outlook on health and wellness. Like a golden retriever, this archetype embodies a friendly, easygoing approach to fitness, thriving in physical activity and self-care while prioritising mental clarity.
With a strong foundation in recovery and headspace, the Relaxed Athlete enjoys staying active and focused, though their approach to nutrition may be more casual. Their commitment to well-being and balanced exercise allows them to lead a fulfilled, vibrant life.

Your Next Steps...
The Relaxed Athlete may benefit from incorporating more structured forms of exercise, such as resistance or functional training, to complement their active lifestyle. This can improve their physical fitness and provide additional health benefits.
Small adjustments to nutrition and hydration, such as consistent meal planning, could enhance their energy and performance. By aligning these improvements with their positive mindset, they can continue enjoying their routine while inspiring others to explore healthier habits.
Protein Priority
Adequate protein intake is important when exercising. Plan every meal around a source of protein.
Nutrient-Dense Foods
Opting for foods rich in nutrients is a good way to improve the quality of your diet.
Time Management
Effective time management can free up both time and mental energy, allowing you to invest more effort in all areas of health and wellness.

Exercise and Flexibility
Athlete
Scoring high in Exercise and Flexibility, the Relaxed Athlete thrives on physical activity, maintaining a consistent routine driven by a genuine love for movement rather than intense performance goals. They enjoy a balance of various types of exercise or sports, making their active lifestyle both sustainable and fulfilling.
To build on their success, they might consider incorporating specific goals that enhance their fitness while maintaining the relaxed and enjoyable approach that suits them.
Injury and Recovery
Supple
The Relaxed Athlete scores high in Injury and Recovery, demonstrating a strong commitment to rest, mobility, and sleep. They incorporate recovery practices like rest days and stretching into their routine, ensuring they remain in a good condition to continue their exercise efforts. This balanced approach helps them sustain their active lifestyle with ease and comfort.
To further enhance their resilience, they could consider tailoring recovery practices to meet the specific demands of their workouts, ensuring they maintain their physical well-being long-term. This could include sleeping more after intense workouts or utilising therapeutic services such as massages and physiotherapy.
Nutrition and Hydration
Unbalanced
While the Relaxed Athlete maintains an active lifestyle, their low score in Nutrition suggests a more casual or inconsistent approach to diet and hydration. Their good recovery practices and lack of injury likely allows them to maintain their active lifestyle and feel good despite less-than-optimal nutrition, which might lead them to underestimate its importance.
However, improving their eating habits and hydration could significantly enhance their energy and performance. By making small, intentional changes—like adding balanced meals or staying consistently hydrated—they can further support their overall well-being and make the most of their active routine.
Headspace
Zen
The Relaxed Athlete’s high score in Headspace reflects their calm, positive outlook and strong stress management skills. They approach life with motivation and resilience, easily navigating daily demands while staying grounded. This mental clarity not only supports their active lifestyle but also helps them maintain a sense of balance.
Leveraging this strength, they can continue enjoying their fitness routine while addressing other areas, such as nutrition, to further align their lifestyle with their wellness goals.

Testimonials
I’ve worked with several different personal trainers in London over the past decade and John is by far the best. He is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly too. He listens to you and pays genuine attention to what you want to achieve, and tailors your sessions accordingly. Happy to recommend him without any reservations.

Every now and then, you simply get really really really lucky. I met John over 9 months ago and have since been training with him 3 times a week. And if you have ever attempted training before, you will know that the only way you can train 3 times a week, is because you are actually enjoying it and getting results. John is an outstanding coach and a consummate professional, and is also just a really nice and friendly person to spend time with. He works/drives me hard and makes sure every workout is worth our time and effort. My whole body feels the effects of every workout, and as a result, the effects didn't take long to show. Weight loss, muscle growth, overall fitness and wellbeing are all vastly improved, thanks to John's excellent coaching and partnership. I can recommend him very highly.
