Testimonials

Having worked in the health industry for 20 years myself, I can’t express how helpful Phil’s coaching has been. Along with achieving the goals we set, he’s been a wealth of knowledge and a driving force in my own career. If you’re serious about optimising your health, don’t give it a second thought.

Phil and I started training with the goal of getting a better time at my 10-mile time trial. So far I’ve dropped 25 seconds off my overall time, with another 15 off at the weekend. I’m stronger than I have ever been. Phil knows exactly what to do to get me there — I’m thrilled with his coaching and my performance.

Phil’s decades of experience come through from day one. I started heavily overweight, hadn’t been in a gym for two years — and in 12 weeks he helped me lose weight and reach fitness levels I’d never experienced. Intense but always appropriate to my level. Safe to say I’ll be signing up for another 12 weeks.

Working with Phil has honestly been one of the best things I’ve done in my life. For 16+ years I struggled with depression, anxiety and brain fog. He analysed my bloods and put me on a plan — by week 8 it was as though a light had been switched on. Clarity, energy, a lightness I’d never experienced. I feel as though I’ve been given a second chance.

Having played 70+ times for the All Blacks I thought I’d been exposed to every training and nutrition programme out there — Phil gave me a new understanding of how to train and nourish myself to perform week in, week out.

I’ve been fortunate to work with Phil over the last few years and I can honestly say he’s the real deal. In my opinion he’s one of the best strength, conditioning and nutrition specialists out there.

Phil said: ‘You’re very fit — but I can tell without even looking at your blood sample that you’re not very healthy.’ He showed me how nutrition plays a vital role in maintaining great health.

With all the diets I’ve tried in the hope of enhancing my performance, nothing comes close to what Phil has shown me. My body feels cleaner and more efficient and my performance levels are so much higher.

Phil changed the way I approached strength, conditioning and nutrition — which had a big effect on my performance.
