Why OffBalance exists
Training you can return to.
OffBalance brings Coach John (CJ) and Achuthan’s coaching into your home, so training can be something you enjoy and keep returning to, around your goals and everyday life.
Achuthan’s own experience of finding movement he enjoyed shapes that approach, while CJ’s experience of training at home showed him how much the work could matter.
Your goals, available equipment and schedule give your training its direction: CJ runs sessions; Achuthan writes the programming; plans, reviews and support depend on the programme you choose.

Before OffBalance.
I started with strength training and have now taken up running too. I’ve already completed three 10K races—something I never imagined I’d be doing.
