He has teamed up with two very highly respected sports dieticians so there is no doubt the training & nutrition plans offered are going to be of the highest standard.

We discuss what concurrent training actually is, the benefits of incorporating both resistance & endurance training, how to structure concurrent training, how to track volume and tapering strategies you can use leading into events.
