'The whole experience at G2G has allowed me to return to playing rugby. I am now more confident lifting in a gym environment and that I am lifting with good technique. I have better movement and I am more knowledgable about how my body works which has given me the information needed to continue to progress and develop.I also gained an understanding of how to structure my meals differently to provide me with the correct fuel to train. This allowed me to maximise my training. It has made a huge difference to my performance both on and off the field. I thoroughly recommend G2G.'
