Regular body comp analysis with Sam is becoming invaluable to my pursuit

It informs my training programmes, allows me insight into my body's response to sporting demands, and gives me a chance to set myself realistic improvement goals.

I have been working with Sam for a few months now and have been extremely impressed with his knowledge and how thorough he is in regard to my nutrition.
I can already feel the difference in my training and see the benefits from working with Sam. I would definitely recommend Sam to anyone looking to improve their performance and nutrition knowledge.
