He decided to create an ebook first to help members, but then decided to help inform more people and had the book published.
Nick has educated himself over the last 17 years with health and fitness qualifications whilst serving in the military. He has noticed during his time educating himself, that there seems to be a lot of mis-information in the health and fitness industry and getting the basics right is probably the best option.
