Four-week review
What worked, what did not, and what changes. Most people need two of these and then stop.
Who it is for
- You have had a first consultation
- Four to six weeks have passed
- You have actually tried it
Who it is not for
Not worth booking inside three weeks. There is nothing to review yet and I would be charging you for a chat.
How it works
Bought as a pair because one review on its own tells you very little.
Questions
Do you sell supplements?
No, and I never will. I have no commercial relationship with any supplement company, which is the only reason I can tell you when one is a waste of your money — which is most of the time.
Can you work with my club's staff?
Yes, and I would rather. If you have a coach, a physio or an S&C coach, bring them in. A nutrition plan that ignores the training week does not survive contact with it.
Is this suitable for under-18s?
Yes, with a parent present and the club informed. Growth changes the advice substantially and it is one of the areas where advice written for adults does real harm.
Will you give me a meal plan?
After an assessment, yes — and it will look less like a meal plan than you expect. Fixed daily menus almost never survive a real week, so what you get is a structure with options.
Do I need bloods?
Not to start. If something in the assessment suggests it is worth looking, I will say what and why, and you get them through your doctor. I do not order tests and I am suspicious of anybody who sells them to you.
What if I just want to lose weight?
Then I may not be the right person, and I will tell you on the first call. This is a sports practice — most of what I do is stopping athletes under-fuelling, which is the opposite problem.
