Now, a few months later, that vast expertise--along with his awesome support and encouragement--has helped me reduced my pain from a 7 to almost zero, and I’ve achieved some benchmarks that I haven’t experienced in years. Plus, I’m having fun! Garrett identified my weak links and created a highly-customized program which not only addresses my physical issues, but also my personality, preferences, lifestyle, etc." - Casey G
