We were able to put together some wellness strategies, to complement some personalised exercise plans and nutrition advice without a healthy reliance on cardio workouts. In our first three months together Antonios was able to achieve 10lb weight loss while measuring an increase in chest and arm muscle size at the same time as losing body fat, getting down to 12%. But perhaps most impressive of all is that Antonios noticed performance improvements by way of greater energy and resilience, which, when you consider the busy schedule of a New York surgeon, is a testament to the dedication and consistency Antonios showed throughout!
