Adam WhitePump House Founder
Pump House Founder
Adam was born with a cleft lip and cleft palate. This condition came with its own challenges which took him a long time to become comfortable with my facial deformity and the associated problems that came along with it. From leaving school he joined the Royal Marine Commandos, after completing the 32 weeks of the most arduous military training in the western world. He believes that his facial deformity was a contributing factor that helped him to overcome many of the challenges faced during his time in the marines. After 21 years Adam held the Rank of Colour Sergeant and specialised in physical training and adventure training. Unfortunately due to an incident in the jungle he was then medically discharged.
From leaving the marines Adam moved back to Rhos on sea with his wife Nia, and their two Young girls Olivia and Claudia. He started Commando X-Fit back in 2012, during his time in Scotland. The ethos is designed around Movement, Mindset and motivation - wellbeing through the medium of coaching and physical exercise.
Adam is also a coach for Leeds Becket University delivering life changing wellbeing weeks to Vets and currently serving individuals who are wounded injured and sick. Locally he has worked with the foster care association various schools and the Phoenix programme attached to the fire brigade.
