James Jowsey, or "Jowse' as he's known by his friends and athletes, has worked with some the top CrossFit individuals and professional footballers of the UK and Ireland. A strong athlete himself, Jowse in his late teens made it all the way to being on Manchester United's reserves (much akin to being a practice squad player for an NFL team...just one play away) as a goal keeper. From nutrition, recovery, and the weight room, he fell in love with the in's and out's of being a professional athlete. Despite staunch adherence to these principles, a torn quad and chronic nerve pain down the back kept him from realizing his dream. With a passion to continually learn, he set out to discover the most valid laws of motion and movement correction to appropriately fire the muscle(s) of athletic propulsion. Over years of honing these principles, they came quite advantageous to the world of competitive CrossFit. Meeting Sam Briggs in 2011 sparked a coach/athlete partnership which has lasted to this day. This relationship led him in 2018 to begin working with the top CrossFit export of the Emerald Isle, in Emma McQuaid, who a the time of recording is 33 days out from the 2022 CrossFit Games in Madison Wisconsin.https://www.instagram.com/specialstrengths/
