WELCOME TO RAZOR PERFORMANCE!
MEET US: RAZOR PERFORMANCE
MY STORY
Razor Performance was founded by Andy Reay, a former Premiership rugby player, fondly known as Razor. Over a 15-year professional career, Andy played for Harlequins, Bristol, and England U21s, where he helped secure a Grand Slam victory.
While competing at the highest level, Andy was already laying the foundation for life after rugby - earning his degree, gaining strength and conditioning accreditation, and working as a personal trainer. Post-rugby, he took his expertise into coaching, leading the Strength & Conditioning department at a semi-professional rugby club, where he focused on building strength, power, and resilience in his athletes.
From there, Andy became Head of Strength & Conditioning at London’s premier physio clinic, Pure Sports Medicine. Working alongside leading physiotherapists, he specialised in injury rehabilitation, prevention, and high-performance training, helping both elite athletes and professionals get stronger, move better, and perform at their absolute peak.
With over two decades in elite sport and coaching, Andy has seen it all, the methods that work, the myths that don’t, and the noise that holds people back. He now cuts through the confusion, providing clear, effective training strategies that fit into busy professional lives.
At Razor Performance, Andy helps high-achieving men build bulletproof strength, prepare for endurance events, and recover from injuries, ensuring they can push their limits without breaking down. His approach is data-driven, meticulously planned, and fully tailored to maximise results while fitting seamlessly around demanding careers and family life.

MY MISSION
To help driven men reclaim and maintain their strength, athleticism, and competitive edge.
I believe that strength and resilience aren’t just built in the gym, they’re forged through challenge and competition.
That’s why I created a community of high-performing men who continually set new goals, push boundaries, and prove to themselves that they’re still capable of more.Through expert-led training, strategic race preparation, and injury-proofing methods, I help my clients stay at the top of their game - whether that means hitting PBs in the gym, smashing endurance events, or simply maintaining a body that can handle anything life throws at it.
If any of this resonates, Razor Performance is built for you.
