I use science-based strength and conditioning methods for athletes and everyday people, focusing on injury prevention, practical assessments, and explaining the purpose behind every workout.

About

I don’t believe in just shouting out reps. I’ve been an athlete myself—ran track, played football, did my Masters in S&C from the UK—so I know how it feels to train with a purpose. My thing is to make those elite training principles actually work for you, whether you’re a pro or just someone who wants to stop pulling a hammy every weekend.

Who I Usually Train

  • Pro cricketers (I coach at TNCA, Nellai Royal Kings, Andhra Ranji)
  • Young footballers and tennis players from FC Madras and TN Tennis Association
  • General fitness folks and those “weekend warriors” trying to get stronger or avoid random injuries

How I Train

  • Everything is science-based—no “bro science”, just stuff that actually works
  • Start with assessments: FMS screens, Yo-Yo tests, 2km runs
  • Foundation is building strength and power (think squats, cleans, lunges)
  • Speed and agility workouts for youth and adults—sprints, plyos, direction change drills
  • Athlete injury prevention strategies baked into every session, not an afterthought

Beyond Just Lifting

  • We talk recovery as much as lifting: good warm-ups, cooldowns, nutrition basics
  • Mobility, foam rolling, sometimes even ice baths (if you’re up for it)
  • I’ll call out fitness myths—like why static stretching after lifting isn’t always the best

It’s simple: smart, consistent work, with a bit of fun. You’ll actually know the ‘why’ behind what you’re doing. Let’s get moving, la!

My Story

Gyms were my playground growing up – my dad’s Shanker Basu, so you can imagine. But I had to break out, so off I went to Leeds Beckett for my Masters, ended up living and breathing sport, not just reading about it. Now, I coach athletes, fitness newbies, and everyone in between. Off the field? I’m a sports nut and total anime/gaming geek – Chennai Comic Con was a blast! I mix that same passion and science in my coaching.

My Work

Strength & Conditioning, for everyone - We do one-on-one science-based strength coaching, athlete training, general fitness, nutrition, and online strength training consultations.

Who trains with us - Pro athletes, weekend warriors, or first-timers – if you’re serious, we’re in your corner.

No nonsense, practical approach - We cut through fitness myths. Every plan is practical, custom, and rooted in real science.

Holistic athlete training - Training, sleep, recovery, food – it’s all connected. We explain the ‘why’ for everything.

Fun, not punishment - Work hard, play hard – tournaments, community, a bit of banter. It’s about enjoying the grind.
