PEOPLE WE'VE WORKED WITH
Why You’re Still Stuck
Most rehab stops too soon. Most strength programs don’t fix the root issue. That’s why you’re still in pain, still avoiding the things you love, still repeating the same loop.
The rehab → relief → re-injury cycle
is common. We break it.
We bridge the gap between short-term fixes and long-term performance by focusing on sustainable strength and strategic progressions.

Who We’ve Worked With
During my formative years at the Brisbane Lions Huw worked with many players in the strength and conditioning department. After many a long afternoon of strength coaching, I recall Huw still giving his time, energy and care to provide specific advice and coaching for my own and many of the other developing players gym progressions. I learnt many things from Huw in relation to strength training and enjoyed working with him in his time at the Lions.

After complications from shoulder surgery I was requiring a sports physiologist I could trust to give me quality time and care. Huw was exceptional. He nurtured me through my recovery, constantly listening to the changing needs of my shoulder, formulating programs to best assist the right gains in strength and stability. I had full trust in Huw's approach throughout my recovery process. Thanks to Huw since returning to work as a professional circus artist I am continually feeling more confident with my shoulders strength and stability.

I have had the privilege of working with Huw at the Capricorn Copper Mining Site, for the Byrnecut Mining. Huw has an ability to engage a workforce and an individual with a high level of passion and care. He has a thirst for knowledge and for meeting the needs of his client. Huw is a wealth of knowledge and is an asset to any individual wanting to be a better version of themselves. I highly recommend Huw in anything physical health. He is passionate, knowledgable, driven and he cares.
