Coming from an athletic background where he trained as a 400m runner and played junior international representative football and senior national league football. Calum has not only had his fair share of injuries but has had first hand experience in return to play rehabilitation. He also has significant experience using strength training, olympic lifts, plyometrics & running training.

In this role, he has also been involved in training massage therapists to assist with athlete recovery protocols. He has also worked with multinational companies, including major airlines, regarding injury prevention, rehabilitation, and management strategies, as well as hands-on treatments.
