Edmund Forster
MSc, CSCS · Founder, SHORE Longevity
THE BACKGROUND
Before this practice, I spent more than fifteen years leading and developing UK national security teams, coaching people in demanding environments where careful preparation and sound judgment mattered. The setting has changed. The principles have not.
How well I managed my body shaped how well I did my job, so strength, movement, and recovery were never abstract. I formalized that interest with a Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification, executive coaching training, and a Master’s in Psychology. After relocating to the United States, I trained with the National Strength and Conditioning Association and the International Sports Sciences Association.

THE GAP
I founded SHORE Longevity because the gap I kept seeing had nothing to do with effort. The people who came to me were already committed and already training. What they lacked was clarity, and someone they could trust to tell them plainly what mattered most.
SHORE is that trusted, evidence-based guide for physical capability.
THE METHOD
That combination of operational experience, a grounding in psychology, and continuous scientific study shapes how I coach: programming built on evidence rather than trend, from a coach who understands both the physiology of change and the psychology of sustaining it.
The rigor is not incidental to SHORE. It is the method.
TODAY
Today, every client relationship at SHORE Longevity is built on the same foundations: a clear understanding of where you actually stand, a strategy built specifically around your physiology and your life, and a commitment to honest, rigorous review at every stage.
This is not a large practice, and it will not become one. SHORE works with a small number of clients, each coached personally, who want a clear plan and honest feedback.
A CLIENT'S EXPERIENCE
A recent Foundations client came to SHORE hesitant about heavy lifting and worried about injury — someone who wanted to build strength without being pushed from zero to hero overnight.
What changed wasn’t just physical. Training became the anchor for earlier nights, more intentional nutrition, and steadier energy through the day — the kind of ripple effect that comes from treating capability as a system, not a workout. Strength progressed without being forced. And because much of the engagement moved between in-person and remote sessions, travel stopped interrupting progress — the program adapted around a demanding schedule instead of competing with it.
"SHORE Longevity isn't a personal training program — it's a thoughtful, highly personalized approach to building strength and better habits that can actually become part of your life."
