Specializing in International Sports Performance over the
last 15 years, and as a leading consultant to Major League
Baseball International, I have learned that sports performance
hinges on so many factors; it can be overwhelming and confusing
for athletes, parents and coaches alike.
In
sports performance, regardless of the age or the competitive
level of an athlete, the first line of attack must always
be Nutrition. Without proper nutrition you cannot perform
at your highest potential.
Without a basic knowledge of human biochemistry and sports
performance, it is impossible to achieve HUMAN MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.
Training world class athletes in the fields of baseball, football,
hockey, and other sports, I truly started to understand that
a balanced diet alone was not enough for performance athletes.
So, I began a mission to find the safest and most effective
nutritional products for my athletes.
In
2004 I first spoke with Dr. Ann de Wees Allen, who absolutely
overwhelmed me with the research and data that I had spent
years looking for. She challenged my knowledge and my approach
to nutrition in sport performance training and gave me my
first look into a program that has and will continue to
revolutionize the sport performance industry….....
HUMAN
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE (HMP).
“Human
Maximum Performance
is the most advanced
and all-encompassing program
I have ever experienced” |
Human
Maximum Performance couples hard-core science-based nutritional
practices with rock-solid training protocols. Using HMP
protocols, athletes are now experiencing levels of performance
otherwise impossible to obtain without the use of illegal,
banned sport performance enhancers.
As
we surge forward to discover and develop better nutritional
products and supplements based on the biochemical needs
of the competing athletes, HUMAN MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE (HMP)
will continue to allow us to push the envelope of human
performance.
The true test for me was the performance gains and feedback
from the athletes as they utilized Dr. Allen’s HMP
methodologies in the real sport performance world.
With
the impact my athletes experienced in strength gains, recovery
times, and injury and illness prevention, those who have
tried the Human Maximum Performance Program refuse
to train or compete without it. Whenever possible,
every athlete I work with uses HMP methodologies.
I
am honored to be working with Dr. Allen in helping athletes
achieve Human Maximum Performance and to experience the
benefits of proper nutrition and safe-science based supplementation.
Dr.
Ann de Wees Allen’s Human Maximum Performance Program
pushes sport performance markers across the board, and I
can’t see any other way for athletes to compete at
the top of their game without using state-of-the-art methodologies
in sports performance.
With
the current high use of illegal drugs and steroids in the
sports industry, there are precious few performance records
that are safe. HMP offers drug-free maximum performance
for athletes that want to have long-term legal careers.
In
my profession, Human Maximum Performance is the only way
to go. The HMP Program has been so successful over the past
15 years, that we are totally booked for the next few years.
