💬 Testimonials
"I feel this program has stood out in that there are clearly defined benchmarks at the beginning and ends of the programs to realize your improvements in performance. Andrew is attentive to your workload, offering suggestions and substitutions for workouts to get the same results. The flexibility of the program, working inside on a trainer or outside, is excellent. I have been able to incorporate my time commuting by bicycle into my workout schedule"
