Meet Floss

A coach who understands
the juggle.

I'm Floss, a qualified personal trainer, former solicitor, mum and marathon runner

I’m passionate about helping women feel stronger, fitter and more confident through realistic, structured training that works around a busy life.

You don’t need an extreme routine. You need one that makes sense for you.

Why I built this business

There’s more to life
than your training plan.

Before becoming a personal trainer, I spent years working in law. I understand demanding jobs, full diaries and how easily looking after yourself can slip down the list.

Balancing work, the nursery run, training and trying to be a present partner and friend can feel impossible! If your routine is demanding more time, energy or headspace than you have to offer, then it's not going to work! Honestly, the “perfect” fitness routine isn’t much use if it doesn’t fit your life. I can help you create a routine that will fit around your life, rather than take over it.

I started running during Covid, and it became something I did for myself. Since then, marathon training and strength training have shown me how much I enjoy having a goal and seeing what I can do.

I want to help other women find that confidence, with an approach that feels achievable alongside everything else they have going on.

My approach

Positive. Practical. No nonsense.

I want you to succeed, and I’ll help you build a clear plan, understand what you’re doing and keep making progress.

Realistic

We’ll plan around your actual week, including the time, equipment and energy you have available.

Supportive

You can tell me when things are difficult. We’ll look for solutions and make adjustments where needed.

Consistent

Progress comes from repeating manageable actions. We’ll focus on building a routine you can keep coming back to.

“Fitness should fit into your life, not take over it.”

About Floss Connell Coaching

I’m passionate about helping women feel stronger, fitter and more confident through realistic, structured training that works around a busy life.

I don’t believe you need to train every day, follow an extreme diet or make fitness your whole personality to make progress.

I believe in doing the right things consistently, having a plan that suits you and building habits you can actually maintain.

Fitness should fit into your life, not take over it

Like a lot of people, I know what it feels like to try and fit training into a full life.

As a marathon runner I know that the juggle of training, work, the nursery run, as well as trying to be a present mum, good partner and friend is HARD.

The “perfect” fitness routine is useless if it doesn’t work for you. If your routine demands more time, energy or headspace than you have to offer, then it’s not going to work.

I want to be able to help you achieve your goals in a way that works for you, and in a way that fits into your life.

You might be:

  • a new mum;

  • a mum that’s pulling her hair out and wants to be able to prioritise herself for once;

  • a high flying career woman who is struggling to find time to train;

  • returning to exercise after time away;

  • trying to balance strength training with running;

  • tired of repeatedly starting again;

  • looking for accountability and structure without being overwhelmed.

If this sounds like you, please get in touch! I’d love to help you achieve your goals.

You don’t need to be “fit” to start, you just need to start.
