After just a few conversations Andy devised a custom strength program that allowed me to reach my goals and fit into my busy lifestyle. Since beginnning the program I have made solid gains in strength and size. I have been very impressed with Andy’s knowledege and am sincerely thankful for his help.

I am a former national level natural bodybuilder, strongman and highland games competitor who became very confused with training methods and had a lot difficulty adhering to a specific workout program. My goals included increasing muscular size and strength and over the last several years I submerged myself in a variety of literature from many different sources. However, the more I read, the more confused I became in setting up a training program that would help me reach my goals. Consequently, everytime I thought I had a well devised workout plan set up, I would read something from an “expert” that would either contradict what I had previously believed or would mention a more effective way to achieve the desired result. The information became so overwhelming that I began to change my routine on a daily basis, leaving me in a downward spiral of growing smaller and weaker.Eventually I came to the realization that I needed help. I knew I had a lot of potential and was determined to reach my goals. Througout my searching on the internet, I came across Kingwood Strength and Conditioning owned and operated by Andy Baker. I had been a long time follower of Andy’s online strength journal and knew he was top level drug free powerlifter with a tremendous amount of knowledge based on training principles that had been proven to work for decades. I emailed Andy with the specific goals I wanted to achieve and with the confusion I had over program design and adherance. Andy responded promptly to my email, letting me know he could help me and after a few messages he devised a workout program that would allow me to reach my goals and fit into my busy lifestyle. Since beginnning the program I have made solid gains in strength and size. I have been very impressed with Andy’s knowledege and am sincerely thankful for his help.
