About ADPF

Angie and Rob

ADPF was created by Angie Dowds and Rob Partridge, to deliver the best of functional training from the leading experts around the world.

The fitness industry has long been dominated by cardio, weight resistance machines and the body building style of training.

We move from one electronic device to another be it car, plane, laptop, mobile, treadmill, or power-plate machine, whatever the need there is a gadget to fulfill it. We don't believe in gadgets or training fads, they are unnecessary and will never be as effective as good old fashioned, hard work.

 

At ADPF we design training systems based around, how the body is naturally designed to move, as one functional, efficient unit, and use training equipment like the Kettlebell to maximise training time and get results.

We extensively research the best forms of functional training, find the experts who use them, learn from them and bring them to the UK.

We are passionate about our training and get in the 'trenches' together everyday to stay in shape and become as proficient as possible with these functional training techniques. This is how we first decided to join forces and set up ADPF, we shared the same passion for training and a desire to educate other trainers and our clients.

We were two of the first trainers to be certified to teach Kettlebells in Europe and not only pioneered this form of training here but also have the most experience teaching and training with them. We are now delivering a Nationally accredited Kettlebell Instructor certification program and are dedicated to delivering the highest standard of training to other fitness professionals.
