Coaching Programmes

Should I start with the Brick app or book a pre-assessment?+

If you're generally healthy and want structure, the Brick app is the fastest, most affordable way to start. If you're dealing with pain, recovering from an injury, or chasing a specific performance goal, a pre-assessment lets our team assess you and build a personalised plan. Unsure? The Choose Your Path tool recommends the right starting point in about 30 seconds.

What's the difference between the Everyday Athlete and Executive Athlete?+

The Everyday Athlete wants to stay active, prevent injury, improve mobility and build strength, best served by the Brick app and lower-ticket programs. The Executive Athlete wants 1 on 1 coaching, chronic pain management, personalised rehabilitation and performance optimisation, a premium, high touch experience.

Do I need to be an athlete to train with Brick Performance?+

No. We use "athlete" for anyone who wants their body to perform and last, running a marathon, lifting pain free, or simply keeping up with everyday life. Our Everyday Athlete pathway is designed for exactly this.

The Brick App

Is the Brick app suitable for beginners?+

Yes. Programmes scale to your level, with demonstration videos and coaching cues for every movement. The app also prompts you when 1 on 1 support would help you progress faster or train more safely.

What's included in the app?+

A full guided program library, mobility and injury prevention blocks, progress and consistency tracking, and a video exercise library with coaching cues from the Brick team.

Does the app work if I'm travelling or training at home?+

Yes, the app is designed for self guided training anywhere. Programmes can be tailored to minimal equipment, so you can stay consistent at home, in a hotel gym, or on the road.

Pricing & Memberships

How much do Brick Performance programmes cost?+

The Athlete programme is free. Tailored starts from £49/month (or £299 for an assessment + your first month). For the Executive Athlete, Remote Bespoke is from £249/month and In Person Bespoke from £799/month. 6 and 12 month upfront options are available too, and everything is delivered through the Brick app. Final pricing is confirmed in the app or at your pre-assessment.

Can I cancel my membership at any time?+

Booking Process

How do I book a pre-assessment?+

Book directly from the website using any Book a Consult button, or call +44 7360 538134. During the consultation we discuss your goals, review relevant history, and recommend the most suitable program or assessment.

What happens in the first session?+

Your first session typically includes a biomechanics assessment, force plate analysis, joint mobility screens and postural analysis, followed by a clear report and a recommended plan.

Injury Prevention & Rehabilitation

Do you help with chronic or long term pain?+

Yes. Chronic pain management and personalised rehabilitation are core to the Executive Athlete pathway, led by our clinical team. We assess the root cause rather than only treating symptoms, then build a progressive plan to get you moving confidently again.

How long does it take to return to sport after an injury?+

Timelines depend on the injury, its severity and your history, so we avoid one size fits all promises. We use objective criteria like strength symmetry, movement quality and load tolerance to progress you through clearly defined stages and confirm you're ready before returning to full training or competition.

Can you work alongside my physio or surgeon?+

Absolutely. We're happy to coordinate with your existing medical team so your rehabilitation and return to performance plan are aligned.

Performance Training

What is VO₂ max and blood lactate testing used for?+

VO₂ max measures the maximum oxygen your body can use during intense exercise, a strong indicator of aerobic fitness. Blood lactate threshold testing identifies the intensity at which fatigue accelerates. Together they let us set precise, personalised training zones so you train smarter, not just harder.

Who is performance testing for?+

Anyone who wants objective data to guide training, from endurance athletes fine-tuning race pace to Everyday Athletes who want a clear, measurable baseline to improve from.

Return-to-Sport

How do you decide when I'm ready to return to sport?+

We use objective criteria rather than the calendar, strength symmetry, movement quality and load tolerance, and progress you through clearly defined stages, confirming you're ready before returning to full training or competition.

Can I keep training while I recover from an injury?+

Usually yes. We rarely recommend complete rest, instead we find the right dose of load and adapt your programme so you keep building capacity in the areas you safely can while the injured tissue recovers.

Do you work alongside my physio or surgeon?+

Absolutely. We're happy to coordinate with your existing medical team so your rehabilitation and return to performance plan stay aligned.
