Do other people rely on you? But do you look after yourself?

Life is a long game but it runs away from us when those we love depend upon us for support and protection. Investing in yourself means you can make the most of it too.

Give yourself a chance to live MORE life AND be the person you want to be. The stronger, healthier and resilient you are, the more fit and able you’ll be to act when your family and friends need you.

Life is tough; you can be too.

Meet Your Coach

Mac McGregor

Hi there! My name is Mac and I'm head coach here at Capricorn Fitness. I don't know about you but I like helping people; it makes me feel good. I've been lucky enough to have been in a position to do just that for most of my life. As a friend, son and brother growing up, then as a Royal Air Force Regiment Officer looking out for the people around me.

Now, I'm a father and husband and my job is to provide for and protect the people who mean the most to me. Being strong, fit and healthy means that I still can. STAYING that way means I can do it for as long as I need to. It also means that by looking after myself, I can enjoy life MORE. And why shouldn't I? Why shouldn't you?

I love being a coach and I loved being a gym owner too. I'm proud to be the UK's first Barbell Logic Professional Barbell Coach and helping people get confident with lifting, get stronger and more independent so they can live better makes me feel good. I provide all of my online coaching through Barbell Logic Online Coaching (BLOC) and my in-person coaching in Fochabers, Moray, right here in my home gym.

Most of us share a bond; the need to protect and support those who need it. Life is a tough teacher; as providers and protectors it's our job to absorb it's lessons. The stronger and more resilient you are, the more impact you'll have.

That's why I chose the mountain goat for our logo. He's hardy and tackles what the elements throws his way. He endures, protects and provides. He lives on the mountain of life and keeps climbing.

HERES WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

Graeme: Barbell Logic Online Coaching

"The best thing about working with Mac is that I have complete confidence in my training; it gives me the focus, attention and motivation that I need. I'm so much more consistent! I have been using gyms and training for most of my adult life however this has been sporadic and lacked focused...not any more! I also have a renewed enjoyment for training and look forward to every sessions. I've learned so much about technique since I started which is something I have never been able to dial into previously."

Kelsey: Barbell Logic Online Coaching

"I love the flexibility I get working with Mac. Working anti-social shifts meant it was difficult to get into the gym consistently. Luckily, I have my own home gym which allowed me to be coached by Mac online, including during and after my pregnancy. This meant I could stick to a training programme and work it round my schedule. It doesn't matter if you are just beginning or already have some experience in strength training. Just go for it; you will not regret it!"

Nicholas: In-Person Coaching

"Never too old for it, wished I tried it years ago. Most people are aware that getting off their ass and doing some sort of fitness can be so beneficial to them. I’d encourage more people now to push the boundaries and give something like this a shot."

In order to see change in your body and lifestyle habits it will take at least 90 days but you will feel the difference very quickly. Feel confident that you are optimising your time for the long haul.

WHAT GYM EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

Ideally for strength and conditioning training, you'll need access to an olympic barbell with plates, a squat rack and bench so we can do the main lifts. If you don't have access to that, we can talk about alternatives during our call. Your own home gym or a commercial gym membership is perfect. Any in-person coaching sessions are conducted in our home gym so all you'll need for those is any personal lifting equipment you routinely use.

DO YOU OFFER NUTRITIONAL COACHING?

If you're working with us for strength and fitness coaching, your service will include foundational nutritional advice. We don't do 'fad' diets for rapid weight loss or detailed meal plans. We promote long-term healthy choices and habits to support your training and life goals.

DO I NEED TO TRAIN DAILY?

Well, that depends!! In most cases, you will be provided with a personalised training program that should be performed ideally at least 2-4 times a week depending on your schedule and priorities. You may have additional conditioning or sporting targets such as a step count or club session that require daily completion.

I'M COMPLETELY NEW TO TRAINING: IS THIS FOR ME?

100% absolutely; yes. I love helping new lifters get started! Likewise, if you're an experienced lifter, there's nothing better than solving problems you've encountered and getting you moving again.

WHAT PERSONAL EQUIPMENT DO I NEED WHEN I GET STARTED?

We recommend squat shoes and a lifting belt. Don't worry if you don't have them right now; we can offer advice on what would suit you best.

Can I keep in contact with my coach outside of our 1-1 sessions?

Yes indeed. You can leave comments in your workouts or send a message in our app you'll get an answer to every message within 24 hrs during the week and within 48 hrs at the weekend. What's better is that you can also ask your fellow lifters in our private community group.

WILL I HAVE TO COUNT MY STEPS OR CALORIES EVERY DAY?

Only if you want to! There are lots of ways to track activity & progress so if the idea of counting calories or steps doesn't appeal; don't worry about it!
