I had issues with chronic fatigue going back to 2004, after I had Mycoplasma Pneumonia whilst in Australia. I’d tried all kinds of treatments to get myself better, and had some periods where I thought I’d cracked it. But I slipped back into ill health in 2018. It got progressively worse in the years following until at Christmas 2020, I decided enough was enough. I’d been following Phil for years and bought a number of his books.
I’ve also been using the PRP supplements for years, on and off. I finally decided to take the plunge and get my Comprehensive Blood Chemistry and Stool Analysis done. I had 4 consultations with Phil to go through my results and figure out a tailored plan for lifestyle, exercise, nutrition and hydration. It took a while for the results to come. It wasn’t an overnight thing. But gradually, I started to see a significant shift. My energy came back and I was finally able to train. Having played Football and other sports at a reasonable level in my younger days, I had so missed being fit! Not just that, the illness had cost me relationships, and all kinds of things that most take for granted in life. I wasn’t able to push myself in the gym without burning out. Phil was able to give me clear guidance and I learned that not training was costing me more than training. It was about the way I train, eat and live my life.
Having the bloods done, meant there was no guesswork. I felt confident in the plan, although I did have some doubts in the first couple of months because I didn’t see the results I wanted. But here I am…a year on in a totally different place. I’m training 3-4 times a week, without burning out. I am able to work full time and have energy for a full family/social life (which I couldn’t do before). I’m very grateful to Phil for amassing such a wealth of knowledge and experience that has been so valuable to me. On top of that, and despite his no-nonsense approach, he really showed care and passion for my recovery. If you’re on the fence about doing the work with Phil, jump!
