Chronic pain, physical performance and long-term health are often more connected than people realise, particularly for leaders and professionals under pressure.

Brendan Turner is a Personal Trainer and Human Biomechanics Specialist who works with business owners and executives experiencing pain, helping them move towards being pain-free and performing at a higher level.

He shares his own journey of losing 10 stone (64kg) and recovering from Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome, a condition often described as incurable, and how this shaped the work he does today.

Brendan now runs workshops and long-term coaching programmes focused on resolving pain, improving movement and restoring physical performance.
