Here is Ethan’s health and fitness story…
“Sport has been a huge part of my life from a very young age. I started playing football at just four years old before moving into rugby at 12, and I now proudly play for the 1st XV at Kilmarnock Rugby Club. Recently, we won our league and secured promotion into the National Leagues. Alongside rugby, I achieved my black belt in Taekwondo, and between the ages of 15 and 18, I spent my summers leading kayaking and surfing sessions on the Isle of Barra.
My gym journey began when I was 13, and at 15 I joined Aristos through the Teen Programme - a decision that completely changed my path and one I’ve never looked back from. Alongside my coaching and sport, I continue to challenge myself physically by competing in fitness events, including HYROX, The Gauntlet, and the Clash of the Clans CrossFit competition. I have also completed multiple half marathons, which have further developed my appreciation for well-rounded strength and endurance training.
Through my passion for sport and training, I naturally progressed into coaching, working with younger athletes across football, rugby, and Taekwondo, as well as delivering rugby coaching within schools. This led to the opportunity to join the Aristos coaching team, initially supporting the Teen classes where my own journey began.
Since then, I have achieved my Level 2 Gym Instructor and Level 3 Personal Trainer qualifications. I have also coached strength and conditioning at GHA Rugby Club and Giffnock Tennis Club, gaining valuable experience supporting athletes across multiple sports. Alongside this, I completed specialised training focused on youth development, allowing me to better support young athletes through key stages of their physical and personal growth.
Coaching the Teen programme is something I am incredibly passionate about. Seeing young athletes grow in confidence, strength, and ability each week is genuinely one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.”
