ABOUT PHILIP
Engineer Turned Nutrition Coach
In my 40s, I faced the same frustrations my clients deal with: hormonal shifts, stubborn body fat, conflicting advice, and the feeling that my best years were behind me. I spent years researching, self-experimenting, and coaching others to develop a practical, evidence-based system that works for real people with real lives.
I've coached hundreds of adults in their 40s and 50s to build muscle, lose fat, and feel strong again. Not through restriction or willpower, but through science, systems, and support.
RESULTS
What Clients Are Saying
★★★★★
"I'm pushing myself with increasing weight in strength training, and a few people told me I look healthy and vibrant. The biggest win of all is that when I saw a photo of myself, I actually liked it, for the first time in almost 18 years."
Maria S. (Age 54)
★★★★★
"Since joining, I've learned more about structuring my own workout programs, become way more consistent, and let go of a lot of baggage about how I eat. The tools have helped me keep going on my journey.
KATY B. (AGE 39)
★★★★★
"It's been life changing. I feel like I'm on a good trajectory, and if I ask myself 'what would Philip say?' I bet I can get pretty close. You are a fantastic coach."
HEATHER C. (AGE 43)
