STOP using ice on injuries.

I’m Keir Wotherspoon.

I’ve been self-employed as a fitness coach and health educator for 16 years.
I ran a gym business for over five of those.
I’m also a dad of three.

Like many people, I’ve spent years trying to balance work, health, ambition, and family life, and I’ve learned how easy it is for energy to quietly disappear in the process.

This podcast is about understanding where that energy goes, and how to rebuild it without burning yourself out.

The High Performance Gym explores how your body, brain, and nervous system respond to stress, training, recovery, sleep, and pressure — and how small, repeatable changes can restore clarity, focus, and physical energy.

Some episodes are practical. Some are reflective. All are grounded in physiology, neuroscience, and real life.

If you want to perform well at work, show up at home, and still feel like yourself, this podcast is for you.

This is The High Performance Gym.
Train for life.
