What people say about Umar

'Training with Umar is an investment that you’ll appreciate for the rest of your life. His vast knowledge of anatomy, nutrition and mental well-being means he knows exactly how to help. I have had an issue with breathing and with anxiety. in particular getting enough air in my lungs and being able to relax enough so that I can sleep and recover. Umar helped me fix this in a few sessions. I've also had a tight shoulder which was sorted in less than a couple of weeks. I’ve been able to lift weight that I had never had thought I’d be able to lift. My core has never been as cut. I gave Umar a brief and he listened. He tailor made my diet and plan so that I can achieve my goals. It is not an investment that I’ll ever regret because I know the things I’ve learnt will help me lead a strong and healthy life. It’s so important to get this stuff right if you’re thinking of getting fitter.'
