What it is

Your pocket ski coach

The Alpines is a 12-week training programme that lives in an app on your phone. It turns regular humans into the kind of people who ski first lift to last chair without falling apart.

Making it up the Tube stairs without needing a lie-down? First lift to last chair? Sliding into La Folie Douce at 4pm? We get you there.

What you actually get

🧠

Zero thinking required

Every workout planned, every rep counted — written by a personal trainer who actually skis, not a robot who thinks burpees are fun. Just show up and do what the app says.

📈

Measurably stronger in 30 days

Workouts progress every 5 weeks so you don't plateau, and the app tracks every session. Not stronger in 30 days? Full refund.

🙋

A real human in your corner

Stuck on an exercise? Ask the coach directly in the app and a real person replies. Revolutionary, we know.

The method

What actually changes

Four things that separate the “I need a break” people from the “one more run” people. We train all four.

🦵

Legs that don't quit

Your legs currently have a noon deadline. We extend it to last chair. No more being the one who taps out while everyone else keeps sending it.

🫁

Altitude-proof lungs

That gasping, seeing-stars feeling at the summit? Gone. Breathe easy while your friends question their life choices.

🎒

Pack mule engaged

Touring gear, 40L pack, questionable amount of snacks. Your back won't break and your shoulders won't scream. Pack mule mode: activated.

♨️

Bounce back fast

Sore legs shouldn't ruin your trip. Recovery protocols that mean day 2 doesn't feel like death — and you can still make après.

Meet your coach

“This isn't guesswork — it's a decade of exercise physiology, pointed straight at the mountain.”

I'm Paul. For over ten years I've worked in health and exercise physiology — including exercise research with children at Great Ormond Street Hospital. My whole job has been measuring and coaching real bodies to get stronger.

So your plan isn't a generic template or AI filler. Every session targets what the mountains actually demand — leg endurance that lasts all day, lungs that cope with altitude, a back for the pack, and recovery that lets you go again tomorrow.

And I don't just prescribe it — I'm training for a hut-to-hut trip in the Picos de Europa right now. The Alpines is the exact plan I'd give a client before a big trip. Follow it and you'll show up measurably stronger — or your money back.

Questions

Before you ask

The honest answers to what people check before buying.

I’m a total beginner. Is this too advanced?

No. The plan meets you where you are and builds from there. Every exercise has a scaled version, and the coach is one message away if something feels off.

Do I need a gym or equipment?

A pair of dumbbells and a bit of floor space covers most of it. Where kit helps, there’s a no-equipment swap.

How much time does it take?

Three to five sessions a week, 30–45 minutes each. The app tells you exactly what to do, so no time is lost deciding.

Does it actually work?

It’s the same progressive, ski-specific training I’d give a 1:1 client before a big trip — leg endurance, aerobic capacity for altitude, pack strength, recovery. You’ll feel the difference well before week 12.

I ski once a year. Is it worth it?

That’s exactly who it’s for. If the trip only comes around once, the last thing you want is to spend it wrecked. £59 once protects a trip that costs far more.

What if it doesn’t work for me?

30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. If you’re not measurably stronger, email me and I’ll refund you.

Still got a question? DM me — I'm a real person, and I'll answer it myself.
