Win Three Training Books

I'm offering free copies of my three training books to one lucky person. In order to win the paperback versions of Foundations for a Better Physique, The F.I.S.H. Training Log, and Nutritional Journal, all you need to do is follow the blog and leave a comment under this post. Once I have twenty comments I'll select the winner at random. The other 19 entrants will receive a Kindle version of Foundations for a better Physique and a copy of my fantasy book, The Nameless Dwarf Omnibus.

If you're wondering who on earth the Nameless Dwarf is, please check out the posts on D.P. Prior's author page

170 kg

Finally achieved a 170kg dead lift using a staggered grip. Felt pretty comfortable, too, so I'm after 175kg next.

A bit of power

I've spent the last month training heavy with a couple of guys at the gym. It's not something I do often, but change is often a good thing, so I gave it a go.

I'm currently up to 150kg squat, 170kg dead lift, 70kg clean, 60kg clean and press, and 110kg bench press.

When I get back to my usual sort of training (higher reps) the poundages will no doubt increase.

New Training Season

Hello everyone.

Sorry it's been so long. I've been out of the country for a while and then inundated with editing work. Finally, I'm able to commit to full-time training again.

I'm available for bookings by phone or email (you can use the "contact us" form at www.derekprior.com if you don't have my contact details.

Discount training books

By buying any of my training books direct from the publisher you can get 25% discount. This is particularly helpful for the log sheets ("Nutritional Journal") where you will periodically need new copies once the old one has been completed.

Hopefully this should keep the costs low enough for everyone to make good use of these tools and ensure you reach your goals.

NUTRITIONAL JOURNAL: https://www.createspace.com/3471532 ( enter code UUD4HW87)

FOUNDATIONS FOR A BETTER PHYSIQUE: https://www.createspace.com/3410225 (enter code: 4NMCWESF)

I strongly recommend that all clients make use of the "Nutritional Journal" for the accurate recording of food, fluid and supplements.

If you need to keep track of your own workouts you can find "The F.I.S.H. Training Log" at Amazon:

New clients welcome

Following the success of the free consultations I've taken on a number of new clients (and some old) and we're training exclusively at MetamorFIT gym in Courtlands Road, Eastbourne.

I've decided to continue with the free consultations as they've been a great way of meeting new clients and accurately assessing their needs.

If you'd like a no obligations consultation please contact me by one of the following means:


Email: derekprior [at] yahoo.co.uk

or via the "Contact Us" form on my website (http://www.derekprior.com/)

It's also possible to book appointments (including the consultation) via my online diary:
