Coaching Reviews
When I booked the coaching, I was expecting nutrition coaching for my climbing performance, but what I got was so much more. I can laugh, I can cry, I can talk about my fears, my goals and successes. Your coaching is so valuable to me.

Tom did not just hand me a diet plan, he equipped me with strategic nutritional tools and taught me how to use them. He also offered a safe space for me to share when I was feeling low with respect to body image or performance and never failed to remind me that that's life and we are not robots, things happen, and even simply from a scientific perspective, one day off will not reverse all the progress.

I still hold that working with you for that period is one of the most valuable things I've done for health and climbing, as I'm a lot more confident that what I'm putting in my body is working for me in the best way possible. (Longhope Direct, E10/7a)
