Kirsty Godso boasts an impressive CV, including her role as a Nike Master Trainer and partnerships with athleisure brand Vuori. Her 15-year fitness career features training high-profile clients such as Olivia Rodrigo, Hailey Bieber, and Kaia Gerber.
Godso has developed her own training philosophy, a strength-Pilates hybrid called Pyro, which incorporates resistance bands, dumbbells, and bodyweight exercises. The key principles of Pyro are consistency, repetition, and gradually increasing weight.
Her coaching style focuses on teaching clients to embrace challenging workouts while emphasizing personal goals beyond aesthetics. Signature exercises include the “hot-sauce burpee” and “typewriter planks.”
Godso believes in a personalized approach to training, avoiding one-size-fits-all workouts by addressing individual client needs. Preparation, such as foam rolling, is integral to her training philosophy. While she keeps her client roster small, her workouts are also available through the Pyro app and on her Instagram.
For those looking to build muscle and burn fat, Godso recommends tapping into tailored workout plans, like the one created by trainer Oyinda Okunowo, designed exclusively for Women’s Health COLLECTIVE members.
