1985 saw the birth of his Company Chartex Products International
Limited, which, since its conception, has been at the forefront
of designing education charts for the Medical, Fitness, Sports
and Education industries. Chartex charts are sold worldwide
and respected for the sound information presented on their
products in a user-friendly way.
Chic has trained many sportsmen and women at club and international
levels. In the sport of golf he has developed training programmes
for amateur and professional players. European tour professional
David Howell benefitted from Chic’s advice during his
early years on the European P.G.A. Tour, especially during
his periods of rehabilitation from injury. To regain full
fitness was vital for him to achieve a successful season
on tour.
The golf fitness Book
and Video/DVD, written
and created by Chic, reinforces the benefits that golfers
can obtain from following a regular fitness programme involving
exercise and good nutrition.
