York man transforms his life with a new career focused on health and wellness

Martin Sharp, a former enterprise architect business consultant, made a drastic career change at the age of 44, deciding to become an apprentice and pursue a new path as a personal trainer and online health and fitness coach. This surprising decision came after Martin successfully lost 40kg in over a year and faced a significant loss of clients and income due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Living in York, Martin saw the pandemic as an opportunity to overhaul his life and focus on his passion for helping others live happier and healthier lives. He founded his own health and fitness business, Sharp Fit for Life, catering to busy professionals struggling to maintain their health and fitness amidst high-pressure corporate jobs.

Martin’s own journey to better health was not easy, as he tried various methods before finding a solution that worked for him. It was only after meeting an online coach who tailored a program to his individual needs that he was able to make significant progress in his fitness journey.

Now, at the age of 48, Martin is set to launch a new online program aimed at helping individuals prioritize their health and well-being using the skills they have developed in their careers. He believes that by improving their health and fitness, individuals can enhance their performance in all areas of their lives.

Martin’s story serves as an inspiration for those looking to make a positive change in their lives and prioritize their health and well-being, even in the face of challenges and setbacks.
